I would recommend GiveSmart 100. They are professional and have a great product.

The second best feature are the sponsor ads. We like how they are not only on the homepage but integrated through the software.

There is often fear of losing donations during that down time, but their staff is always more than willing to make things right.

It has been a great relationship for us. We had onsite support for our first event and she was fantastic (and kept me sane).

The account managers are really fantastic and willing to help you through any questions or customizations you want to try.

I love how user friendly it is. It is professional looking and I love that I can manage from my phone.

The customer service at Give Smart was great. Whenever I had issues, placing a call to them was very easy and they were very responsive.

This is a great way to keep your guest up to date with auction information and send text to encourage them to donate.

Overall we have had a very good experience and recommended to others for events.

They have a great costumer support team as well as on site team. Have had nothing but good experiences with their software and team.

Seems to be missing some basic options for customizing.

Give Smart is easy to use and has a great support staff to help you through the entirety of your event and use of the software.

The seating chart functionality is very difficult and inconvenient to use.

We recommend GiveSmart to all of our clients. Overall the experience has been a good one.

Clean presentation and good aesthetics. Great functionality and quick to respond.

We have been looking for a mobile auction software service for a long time and finally found a good one within our price range.

My nonprofit ended up eating the tax that should have been charged to the purchaser (according to the law) and we lost over $1000 having to pay that bill ourselves.

Sad to think they are willing to lose a customer rather than even attempting to work with us.

Similarly, their on site staff for night of events were fantastic and super helpful - they made the service even more valuable.

We are grateful for the ease of pulling comprehensive reports. This allows to easily and accurately move the data into our data collection system.

GiveSmart is an easy way to integrate fully functional auction and bidding management software in any organization.

We enjoy the ease of use and the fact that there are Give Smart team members at our event to assist the guests.

The customer support team is fantastic. I am excited to use the new Champions feature for peer-to-peer fundraising.

Their platform, help team, resources, and webinars will motivate you to do more and be better for your organization and its mission.

It has benefited our nonprofit in many ways;  ease of use, reaching more supporters, and great record keeping.

Great text-to-give feature. Quality customer service.

And when I ran into something I needed help with, the tutorials were great, and if I still needed help, the customer support reps responded very quickly with exactly what I needed.

As an organization that turns over every year, this software has been instrumental in helping us keep the continuity for a successful event.

What I like most about this software is the customization capabilities and just how easy it really is to use.

Reporting is easy, POS/refunds are a dream, and I really like how easy it is to set up every year.

This is very easy to use and google search results seem to scrape events and place them next to your business listing. You can get up and running quickly.

Had a little trouble with the background images.

They never contacted me and when I contacted them about it, they never bothered to respond. Very poor customer service and should never have happened with no contact.

It was very easy to set up and use this software. The daily payouts were great.

We had a little trouble with our photos and a few other details, but customer service was quick to talk us through.

Good to get ticket sales up and running quickly.

Great product and services as promised. We use for charity concerts but would work great for any event.

It was selected because it was easy to get up and running. It was not sustainable as a long term alternative to website sales because of price and lack of customization.

Once I learned how to maneuver, it was awesome. The customer service was amazing.

You can set a time to shutdown sales, refund a guest w/o having to worry about confidential information and so much more.

I had an event scheduled and someone who was not an organizer of the event contacted Ticketbud and cancelled the event without my knowledge.

Enter Ticketbud to save the day (and weeks, and months, and years!! :-) There were clear instructions on how to do this actually on the Squarespace page, and we are delighted with the results.

Largely our experience has been good and has proven useful to help grow our new business.

Fantastic response time with customer service.

Intuitive and easy to navigate, very responsive customer service for the few questions I had.

Everything was easy to set up and the customer service was outstanding. Special shout out to customer support who made my experience extra special by helping with setup, pricing and more.
