244 Bloomerang Testimonials

"InitLive's flexibility in creating volunteer shifts and curating schedules is incredible. Volunteers really appreciated the ability to self-sign up and the flexibility to fit their volunteering around their busy life, work, and family schedules. The integration between InitLive and MapTag has also been incredible. We have been able to streamline our workflow to the point where we could take on new food banks without an increase in staff resources."

"InitLive helps me communicate a 100% more efficiently and accurately. Using InitLive, if there is any type of safety situation, I know who's checked in to the event. It’s part of our security plan: using InitLive, we can pull up all the information we need on our phones. I can send broadcast messages just to specific groups or all volunteers at once."

“We’re going to continue to steward our existing donors through the education, ask and thank process. I would love to see our donor retention climb over 50% as our next goal!”

“InitLive helps us manage our growing volunteer base at multiple festivals each year; it's great to have all of our volunteer information and schedules in one central location.”

“Using InitLive was definitely an improvement from how we organized the team in previous years. It was so easy knowing that all of our important event information was stored in a common location."

"Since switching to Bloomerang, our development team speaks about donor retention and incorporates tactics into our donor management process to try to improve the rate. At the very least, that was not part of our development team’s culture prior to switching to Bloomerang. I think it is just a matter of patience to see the results come to fruition, because the team is working on improving those relationships compared to a few years ago where donors just came and went."

“I strongly support their system as it allowed us to know instantaneously where we stood with volunteer necessities along with having a clear overview of scheduling at any moment throughout the Championship.”

“I was very satisfied with the communication features on event day. It was critical to be able to reach my volunteers; we used the broadcast feature in the app to do this. Additionally, I was able to adapt the Reports feature to not only help fill spots when we were short volunteers but also to track equipment we were using onsite. This [InitLive] helped us dot i’s and cross t’s in the conference Headquarters.”

“It has made an absolutely massive difference in logistically managing & coordinating all our volunteers as the week goes for 8 days over 2 weeks. We're going to continue using the system next year, keep growing our event, and keep helping women's hockey get bigger and better.”

“This year, we decided to try something new: the InitLive Volunteer Management Software. I must say, this software greatly reduced the workload on the volunteer managers. [InitLive] made the process very much more streamlined than in the past - [it] reduced the amount of labor considerably. So, all in all we had a great experience. InitLive really came through and really assisted in making this conference a tremendous success.”

"[InitLive] makes my life easier during the event. Schedule Problems and Broadcast are my favorite because I can see where I'm short, reassign people, and communicate with everyone easily."

"We've been running a large event with over 7,000 people and 150 volunteers for 7 years now. We've used other providers and no solution even comes close to comparing to InitLive. The interface, pre-event for setting-up is intuitive and easy to use and the app for event day is AMAZING. InitLive made it so easy for us to communicate with our volunteers and make changes and adjustments."

"We were using excel spreadsheets for each campaign and had no way of connecting each donation to a donor to see someone’s history. We wanted something easy to use, easy to upload our past data to, and something that would allow us refresher courses or learn new ways to utilize the system."

“Our email system wasn’t working and the wifi was unreliable but InitLive never failed.”

“It’s easy to use, keeps the entire team organized, and reduces issues and stress during the events."
