After evaluating six volunteer management systems over more than a year, Volunteer Impact was the clear winner. Since implementation, it has even exceeded our high expectations for coordinating our volunteer emergency responders, both in 'blue skies' and in crisis deployment situations which involve constantly-changing shifts. And the staff -- oh boy, the staff. Their knowledge and dedication are unmatched in any industry, from initial contact through ongoing support more than a year later. I don't think I have ever written an online review in my life, but Better Impact is so good I am compelled to sing their praise to anyone who will listen. The systems Volunteer Impact has replaced for us include Volgistics, SignupGenius, Emma, Tockify, and a video learning/quiz system. We now have *far* better capabilities and less overhead -- all at a lower price point.

From the first phone call with Andy, he listened and asked a lot of questions about our needs, the organization and how we wanted to interact with our volunteers and staff. We have been so happy with the process the online training, to its launch with volunteers. They system is easy to use for both staff and volunteers. Onboarding is a dream, as is rostering, communication is easy and managing volunteer profiles has really helped us understand our people better therefor our engagement and retention has improved. Support from the Better Impact team has made the journey all the better!

We have been using Better Impact for 5 years now after an exhaustive search and trade study of available tools. Better Impact remains the most cost effective and is powerful yet very easy to use.

This was a great consultation and training session. Andrew inspired us to update our landing page for volunteers and offered lots of great ideas! Thanks so much.

Better Impact is not only a fantastic volunteer database, but the customer support from the company is top-notch! They have member support advisors, training videos, a database of training topics, and a chat-function to get real-time fixes to your urgent needs. Most of the database is intuitive and a joy to use; I can usually answer my own questions. I never have trouble getting in contact with support when I do have a technical question, however, and their staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to help! If you're looking for a modern database that covers all your needs as a Volunteer Engagement Professional, I highly recommend Better Impact. The reports and feedback functions alone are invaluable to capture snapshots of metrics on the home page, or record volunteer storytelling of impact during hours logging. This database will help automate functions you've been struggling to complete in-person and in doing so elevate your capacity to improve your volunteer program. Check Better Impact out and then start an advocacy case for your budget!

I have used Better Impact at my previous employer for 2.5 years. Absolutely loved the system and everything it is able to do. Now, at my new employer, I brought this system in and the process has been so easy even with transferring information from an older-based system. They are there every step of the way and answer any questions that I have (even when I've asked them before). I always hear back from my Rep. within the same day. Love this system and my volunteers do too which is amazing!

Easy to use! Great Website

Excellent software, only issue is being Canadian based, the Sterling Volunteers option only works for US mailing addresses. I would like to see some background check integration with Canadian companies that can actually do it here.
