Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 50 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers find the software to be a fantastic and comprehensive tool, making volunteer management much easier and more efficient. They appreciate its user-friendly interface, high customizability, and the robust tools it provides for daily work, including scheduling, communication, and tracking volunteer activities. The platform helps organizations recruit and manage volunteers effectively, centralizing hours, schedules, roles, and reporting, which saves time and empowers volunteers. Many users also highlight the excellent support and continuous improvements, along with convenient features like the online chat function and helpful user groups. However, some people mentioned that certain features are rudimentary or limited, such as the restricted use of merge tags and issues with handling group volunteering hours. There were also concerns about the lack of automated shift notifications and design flaws with feedback fields, which can make the feature nearly useless for tailored questions. A few other people also felt that the app was not as easy to navigate as other volunteer apps and wished for an administrative app for quick changes.

Excellent software

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.

We love Better Impact!

I have been managing volunteer for 16 years. It would be impossible for us to mange the 1100 volunteers in our program without Better Impact. We love BI because it makes it easy for us to match clients and volunteers. It is easy for the volunteers to use and it has a robust and easy to use reporting function for our staff. We love Better Impact!

Awesome volunteer software experience

We have been using Better Impact in our organization for 5 years and it is excellent! The tutorial videos are easy to follow and answer everything. This is the best software I have used to keep track of volunteer information, run reports, host eLearning training, sign up for activities, etc.

Revolutionary & Easy

This platform has revolutionized and streamlined the way we manage our hundreds of volunteers each year. The customer services is the absolute best: they are knowledgeable, fast, and never fail. Volunteers of all ages have learned how to use the program and find information they need to get trained, scheduled, and excited to come volunteer.

Better Impact is helping us organize and track our volunteers. The customer service they provide (whether through video chat, online videos, chat messaging) is quick, accurate, concise and very helpful! Thank you for being so attentive to our organization's needs!

I am not an IT person...

I am not an IT person, so this review is actually not really about the portal itself but about the Better Impact staff. Really, I could not compliment them enough. They are always so responsive and provide amazing assistance. When the system doesn't have a capability that I'd like, they give me advice on how to work around it within their framework. They are patient, kind, always available and exceedingly helpful. Our account rep, Josie, used to be a volunteer coordinator and her consultations are always spot-on. Thanks to the team! Give them raises!

BI shows it's quality soon after start of evaluation

We're evaluating BI for use in our organization which has well over 100 volunteers actively assisting members of our community. The BI folks have build a solution that, out of the box, fits most of our needs. Furthermore, where some tinkering is required, they are able to come up with easily implementable tweaks that do the job. The UI is intuitive and the functionality is comprehensive. And even though we've only been using the product for a bit over a week I fully expect it to serve our needs for a very long time.

Just an amazing ride with so much help

Just an amazing ride that despite being the lone champion didn't feel lonely thanks to the amazing support in particular Thomas but all interactions with BI staff have been fab. A new member of staff said the other day that she loved the system and I have only shown her a little of it so far.
