Everything you need is in our system to coordinate your volunteers. No stress: our service is running around the clock to show volunteers what spots are available. You don't have to deal with the scheduling nightmare - and the spots disappear as they fill online. Get up and running quickly: just a few clicks and your event can be online in minutes. We provide real-time support to get you started and anytime throughout your recruitment process. Happy volunteers: our one-page signup will make your volunteers love volunteering for you. That's why we call it Happy Volunteering. Are you the Executive Director for a program that relies on a volunteer coordinator? If so, this service will keep them coming back every year because it simplifies the job so much. We often receive thank-you cards, t-shirts and (once) even dried cherries from our happy customers all over the country\! ## Quick Stats & Ratings | Metric | Rating | Detail | | **Overall** | **4.8/5** | 204 Reviews | | Ease of Use | 4.6/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Customer Support Software | 5.0/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Value for Money | 4.7/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Features | 4.6/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Recommendation percentage | 90% | (9/10 Likelihood to recommend) | ## About the vendor - **Company**: VolunteerLocal - **Location**: Chicago, US - **Founded**: 2003 ## Commercial Context - **Starting Price**: $600.00 - **Pricing model**: Flat Rate (Free Trial) - **Target Audience**: Self Employed, 2–10, 11–50, 51–200, 201–500, 501–1,000, 1,001–5,000, 5,001–10,000, 10,000+ - **Deployment & Platforms**: Cloud, SaaS, Web-based, Mac (Desktop), Windows (Desktop), Linux (Desktop), Chromebook (Desktop), Android (Mobile), iPhone (Mobile), iPad (Mobile) - **Supported Languages**: English - **Available Countries**: Australia, Canada, China, Germany, India, Japan, United Kingdom, United States ## Features - API - Access Controls/Permissions - Activity Dashboard - Activity Tracking - Alerts/Notifications - Assignment Management - Attendance Management - Attendance Tracking Software - CRM Software - Calendar Management - Committee Management - Communication Management - Contact Management Software - Credit Card Processing - Customizable Branding - Customizable Fields - Customizable Forms - Customizable Reports - Customizable Templates - Data Import/Export ## Integrations (8 total) - Background Check Platform - Bloomerang - Bloomerang Volunteer - DataMaxx - DonorPerfect - Little Green Light - Neon CRM - Salesforce.org Nonprofit Cloud ## Support Options - Email/Help Desk - FAQs/Forum - Knowledge Base Software - Phone Support - Chat ## Category - [Volunteer Management Software](https://www.getapp.ae/directory/172/volunteer-management/software) ## Related Categories - [Volunteer Management Software](https://www.getapp.ae/directory/172/volunteer-management/software) - [Nonprofit Software](https://www.getapp.ae/directory/775/nonprofit/software) ## Alternatives 1.

Plus, being able to communicate with volunteers through the website is an added bonus. It's great to be able to see exactly what jobs are being fulfilled and what you still need to get volunteers for too. > > **Cons**: It does take some time getting the jobs and schedules set up, but it's time well spent in the end. > > We have two very large events that require over 100 volunteers for each day of the event. VolunteerLocal makes it much easier to keep organized. It's great to be able to have more than one administrator have access since we usually have more than one person heading up our volunteer teams. Communication is key and keeping everyone updated is much easier with VolunteerLocal. ----- ### "BEST Customer Service" — 5.0/5 > **Christiana** | *15 April 2024* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I was very excited to sign with VolunteerLocal and may have been overzealous in adding past volunteers into the new system. I made an error on the application that was impossible for me to figure out, but \[sensitive content hidden\] and his team of developers got my mess sorted out and everyone back on track in a matter of days. > > **Cons**: Perosnally, I love the customizing aspect of VolLocal, but a few of my colleagues who aren't so web-savvy don't understand the lingo and can get very confused. The only other (very minor) improvement I'd like is for the event logo to resize itself to the 300px necessary. It's a little aggravating to have to resize graphics perfectly so they fit with the VolLocal upload. ----- ### "Unity Shoppe Feedback" — 5.0/5 > **Priscilla** | *7 August 2023* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: We wanted something that integrated with Donor Perfect. The system is fairly easy to use. It's helped us improve our registration process, work flow for volunteers and tracking hours. > > **Cons**: Problems with some accounts not being able to register for shifts. The text function is not available. Flags are limited. The WRAP is a little wonky. Easier access to volunteer profiles for our volunteers. > > It's been good even though some of the functions are not perfect. We're making it work. ----- ### "Great customer service" — 4.0/5 > **Tammi** | *16 January 2020* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The customer service was great, otherwise would not have been successful in setting up > > **Cons**: Delete options were not very visable. Navigating the system to find what I needed or get back to the right page was not easily labeled. As of now, I cannot see who signed up to volunteer, just that the slots are filled. > > Good customer service and quick response. Easy to understand directions but without that I would have given up on using this option for our event to raise money for food banks. ----- ### "VolunteerLocal helps us manage an annual 2-week event with 24 hour shifts of 100+ volunteers" — 4.0/5 > **Carol** | *4 April 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Once I developed the over 400+ event jobs/shifts for our annual church event, I could simple \*COPY\* the whole event the next year and update the START and END times...Voila\! We were ready to go again I loved the export ability so I could create custom reports for different job coordinators as their teams filled out. > > **Cons**: We could only afford the first tier subscription so I could not SAVE reports, but had to create them each time I wanted to run them. (Not difficult, just time consuming) All jobs are shift centric. There isn't a position-type job (ex: Job Planner/Coordinator) that has no explicit start/stop shift. We need that for volunteers who signup to help plan/coordinate the other volunteers in general. > > This is the best online signup app I found. Key is that it is EASY for the volunteer and there is no need for remembering Yet Another Password. Our volunteers just use their email. And there's a nice smartphone app for the volunteers. The backend is pretty intuitive and powerful. I have managed a large church event that runs 2 weeks with 24 hour shifts for the last 10 years. I have used google forms \& spreadsheets to manage most of the years. The past 2 years I have used VolunteerLocal and decreased my workload at least 75%\! I would highly recommend this useful app. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ae/software/91258/volunteerlocal?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ae/software/91258/volunteerlocal) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
