Engage alumni never like before using Vaave platform

It is a wonderful journey so far with Vaave team. We have been using Vaave platform for our institution "Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology" for the last 2 years and have connected with more than 38,000 alumni through the platform. Vaave is not only providing the software, it is also guiding us on Alumni Engagement through the Unique program "Alumni Leadership Program"

PROS

The Dashboard, Events, Jobs and News modules are very helpful features and easy to use. In the member's section, required filters can apply to search for the target alumni to get in touch with them. The mobile application is good and easy to connect with alumni and batchmates. Also, the monthly newsdigest feature will be helpful for the alumni to know about the updates that happened on the network over the last month.

CONS

Should promote the mobile application to increase the reach. The registrations through the mobile app would helpfull with quick signups.

Good customer support and onboarding journey

Overall, it is a positive experience. Looking forward for the same.

PROS

Overall, it is positive experience. I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional assistance in navigating the alumni portal. Onboarding POC's responsiveness and willingness to address my inquiries were impressive, and expertise in guiding me through the various features of the portal made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. Her patience in answering my questions and providing clear explanations, which contributed to my enhanced understanding of the portal's functionalities. Your positive attitude and proactive approach have undoubtedly made a lasting impression on me. Alumni features are great, we will take time to get hold on it as there are various features like Creating chapters, monthly digest, dashboard which we can utilise to engage alumni. Once again, thank you, Ms. Aashi, for your outstanding support.

CONS

We are in the exploration stage and have not faced any issue till now.

Providing a great platform for a small and humble school

Though more freedom in design and the ability to change small features would be a great feature from Vaave (and we believe that Vaave is also working on this), don't let that discourage you from reaching out to Vaave and trying out their software. From the beginning you'll be pleasantly welcomed and greeted by their customer service, and will only be even more amazed at how much you're getting for your money. We, as a relatively small international school, would recommend Vaave for any institution starting with an alumni platform and are only looking forward to see where our platform will grow.

PROS

Looking into which company and provider our school needed to take, it was clear from the beginning that we would be using Vaave. In the beginning it was honestly for one simple reason: Their starting prices are simply unbelievable. And now, after having a whole platform set up, we can say that their services provide far more than what the price labels say. It's amazing how Vaave manages to excel in expected features (a database, a world map, groups and stable social media platforming), and yet pack so much more into it (a free app version, newsletter support). On top of that, customer support is outstanding and very fast, you can expect your questions and requests to be answered in a mere matter of hours.

CONS

Our cons can be led back to the fact that our school is only using the "simplest" plan and can be seen as nitpicking. Design and customizability is something that we wish we had more freedom in, as the options starting with the simplest plan can be restricting. Small features like being able to change the website's icon, and customizing new members' login information would also be very welcome.

Reason for choosing Vaave

Our main reason was the pricing, but after testing all three products, we chose Vaave due to it's best price to product ratio.

Vendor Response

Dear Sir, Thank you for giving a great feedback and letting us know that you are very likely to recommend others. We're happy to know that you found our product features and support services very good. We are happy to learn that product is of great value for the invested money. We are also glad to know that you found pricing & features helped you to choose us and preferred us over other vendors. We strive to deliver a great experience on the feedback you shared with us.
