Easy to use and manage the auction from behind the scenes. Very professional platform and great support from Galabid staff.

We were supposed to be auction my prints at an event in London that was cancelled duu to Covid and then had to either postpone the idea for ages or do it online.

Great customer support from the moment we starting planning for our online fundraising event.

It was easy to use and upload items and it was easy for people to register and use. I was fundraising in lockdown for my best friend and i had no idea how i was going to run and distribute my auction.

For a small non-profit that cannot afford higher end online auction/fundraising platforms, GalaBid was the perfect solution.

Ease of use, ability to host an event and raise funds.

The team are great to work with, overall the simplicity is great, text function words well.

Managing the software (while relatively easy) on the night while knee-deep in event management would have been additional stress and burden.

Easy to use for both administrators and users, great customer support.

This was an incredible platform and i am so pleased that we used it.

Highly recommend Galabid, great platform and support from staff.

All my contacts found it easy and a lot of fun to use.

It was easy to use and navigate. The Galabid team answered any questions I had as they came up and were very helpful.

We love using Galabid each year for our Gala Dinner. The guests really enjoy using it and it is a very simple piece of software to use.

The customer facing site was attractive and its ease of use resulted in excellent engagement and results. The automated alerts to the bidders helped raise additional funds for our charity.

This is the first time we had someone buy one of the high-priced buy it now items. Really great to be able to copy and paste things from previous years.

Found it difficult to get the colour options for the main page and the lot items right - it gives several options but none showed.

This put off a lot of guests as they deemed it too much information or too much hard work when they didn't 'plan' on buying anything.

Could of had clearer information on having a silent auction and live auction integrated. This was quite difficult to understand and was not set up until the event start time.

This was a huge time saver and help. In the training, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] was kind and helpful.

Great service, great user-friendly system and great customer experience.

Easily customisable, excellent functionality, great account management.

I am not an IT expert, so this was great). Follow up directly before and after the auction was much appreciated as it reassured me that we were on target.

We managed to raise a lot of money through the silent auction, enjoyed working with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN], and found the platform was aesthetically pleasing and worked well.

I love that these kind of solutions exist. I'm sure it will be a good fit for many events.

SENSITIVE CONTENT] and co. though have seen it all at this point and will be great assets to help things go smoothly for you.

Front end very slick and professional, easy to share across socials. Text messages and prompts sent to bidders helped build excitement on night.

First time in the online auction scene - very happy with the Galabid experience.

Great and simple platform to lead your fundraising campaign, very easy to use and work with for people of all ages.

Sometimes it was hard to coordinate when there are multiple fundraiser pages for one campaign.

Givebutter has a great support team and takes feedback very seriously. We are very happy with the product and actively look for new ways to use it.

Great benefit and easy to use platform with lots of room to grow.

Givebutter has a great team of specialists ready and willing to help you through your initial configuration as well as your ongoing work with the platform.

It works perfectly, and has all the features we need: peer-to-peer fundraising; team and fundraiser performance tracking; and alternative payment methods like Venmo, digital wallets and paypal.

The givebutter interface is extremely user friendly.

It is less intuitive to edit personal information and I got confused about managing different campaigns, and how to direct people specifically one campaign.

This platform is so much easier to use than other platforms my PTSA has tried. And the customer service was absolutely amazing.

Their organization has a customer-centric focus, and is designed to receive and adapt based of their user feedback. We also really liked its ability to integrate with our CRM.

We are delighted that donors can cover the cost of fees if they decide too (and we can opt to ask them to or not).

There are very few things that I don't like about Givebutter.

With low overhead costs and a pleasing interface, I finished my project entirely satisfied with my choice of the platform.

In terms of a startup nonprofit, we are totally excited about Givebutter and it's ability to get us up and running online quickly and without an initial burden of cost.

Fantastic support and a platform that allows teams to integrate and compete to raise money.

Had trouble at first with adding the video but it ended up working out.

It's definitely the more feasible choice to have it turned on, but beware if your donors don't notice it, they might come back to you very unhappy.

Very easy to use and intuitive. Very clean and powerful without being too clunky.

Customer service is excellent. Very easy to set up our campaigns and to push them out to our alumni via email, social media, and text.

I looked for months for a platform that would accept Venmo and Apple and Google Pay and integrate with our own database.

The platform documentation was helpful in articulating some of the platform's more advanced capabilities.

Streamlined and Wonderful Peer-to-Peer Fundraising.

Their support team is very responsive and knowledgeable, and help to guide us through all of our questions.

It was a little difficult for me to navigate the butter ambassador website.

Having the ability to run an online donation and an event page in the same system is helpful to our team to not have to learn two different types of platforms.

The integration into our Bloomerang database has save us COUNTLESS hours of donation entry. I was thrilled to find it SO user friendly.

I know the site was under construction for a while as they were improving. No real complaints though.

Excellent service and experience, the staff were very helpful in guiding me through everything.
