  • "As a charity we are always looking for cost effective ways to manage our events and Volunteer Local was a perfect fit. It has made the sign up process extremely easy for our volunteers and could not be easier to set up and manage. We can communicate all the details of an event automatically during sign up and manage all the responses via the reporting tool available. The web based tools could not be simpler to use, but if you do need support, the Volunteer Local team are very helpful and quick to response to queries I would recommend Volunteer Local to other charities and businesses, whatever their size. There is something for everyone."

  • "Wow. For as long as we've been in the event business, managing volunteers has always been a challenge. until we found VolunteerLocal. The first time we used VolunteerLocal was for Oktoberfest and we haven't looked back. The functionality and reporting are so important for us. It's been great. We can't say enough wonderful things about VolunteerLocal - even the customer support is fabulous. Would I consider using any other tool? Not a chance."

  • “I have enjoyed using VolunteerLocal, and we have had positive feedback from our volunteers as well. I just wanted to say Thank You to you and your team. It is a pleasure working with you all.”

  • "Our Chamber organizes the logistics for Ankeny SummerFest every year and the event could not be possible without our dedicated group of 450+ volunteers. It was our first year using VolunteerLocal for SummerFest and within the first few weeks of utilizing this amazing software, we have since then started using it for all of our other events. As an Event Director, this software has made working with registrations, communications and volunteer reporting so much more efficient and has given our lead volunteers more of a role in the registration process. We look forward to continue working with VolunteerLocal as our volunteer base continues to grow in years to come."

  • "This was my first year as the volunteer coordinator for the Underground Music Showcase in Denver, CO. We have 4 days of live music with volunteer jobs at the main stage, volunteer and box office tents, 20 venues up and down a 4 mile stretch of Broadway and more; you get the picture. Bottom line we had over 300 shifts and over 300 volunteers. The training that Kaylee with Volunteer Local provided was amazing and on going as I prepared for the festival. I had to request some customization for our event in the thick of things due to the way we were handling the scheduling. Brian was AMAZING in helping me brainstorm some work-arounds and making it happen. Kaylee and I had a wrap up call and she was very receptive to my comments and suggestions for continued improvement to the Volunteer Local app for us and other organizations going forward. I can't wait to see what we will have available to us next year as this group is super dedicated to making Volunteer Local user friendly to help any organization successfully execute their event! Now that I have this first event under my belt, I know I can cut my lead time in half by using the system the way it was built while still managing volunteers the way we like to for our event."

  • "Thank you and your team for creating such a great volunteer management tool and for offering stupendous help and support. Your tech team is the quickest and most responsive group I have ever worked with. We are deeply grateful for your help in making our first Jaipur Literature Festival at Boulder a great success."

  • "We used VolunteerLocal for our Ribfest and had over 300 volunteers signed up on the system. It made it so much easier to manage that number of volunteers and our Volunteer Committee members were very impressed with the software. It's fairly intuitive and easy to use. Thank you very much."

  • "We're in the midst of the crazy week pre-marathon weekend, but I just wanted to take a second to give you and your team a HUGE thank you for the fantastic volunteer management platform you all work on. I have worked with several volunteer management systems, and I've managed large races for over 10 years, and I've never had an easier time using a system - both from my end of things, and the front-end volunteer registration process. Every new thing I've gone in for the first time to do in your system has ended with me saying "wow, that was amazingly easy/straightforward/fast!" I am truly appreciative of the outstanding product you guys have created. It has saved me a ton of time, and a lot of headache because I really think our volunteers have had both a simpler experience in registering, and also are actually able to USE your tools to go in and edit their own account . The lack of emails I've received asking for me to change a volunteer's job/date/registration or cancel their shift has been very refreshing."

  • "Last year was the first time using VolunteerLocal and it has made my job so much easier. Before, we had hard copy forms that people would send back and we would allocate their roles. Now, volunteers can select the exact role and time they would like, saving on confusion and database entry. It's easy to access reports and the ability to move volunteers and send bulk emails is great. I have been and will continue to recommend VolunteerLocal to anyone who recruits volunteers."

  • "Thank you for being so helpful and easy to work with! I look forward to being a repeat customer for future events."

  • "I LOVE your system by the way. It's relatively easy for our non-computer savvy volunteers and SUPER easy for me to manage. I inherited a more out-dated system to manage our volunteers when I started here and your system is SO MUCH BETTER. I love the design and ease of use."

  • "Thank you for all you time and patience while we cycled the decision through our various committees. We are very excited to get away from our 39 year tradition of scheduling volunteers on paper - and only recently excel spreadsheets - and provide our community volunteers with a more efficient and user friendly way to help us with our event. Everyone to a person is on board with using VolunteerLocal's software for our Designer House Event this year."

  • "VolunteerLocal has enabled us to recruit volunteers and organize them into shifts on a much more streamlined basis. Normally I would have to exchange several emails including confirmations prior to the event. Thanks to VolunteerLocal, this is done automatically, allowing my time to be spent doing other very useful things to help Iowa's children. I would highly recommend VolunteerLocal. Not only are they non-profit friendly, they are very organized and helpful."

  • "VolunteerLocal makes it so easy to organize an event. It's great because we have a database of emails of people who like to volunteer for our events, so when we have a new event we set up a VolunteerLocal page for it (which is often quite easy because we can duplicate the event from a previous year and edit a few things) then email it out to our volunteer list and most of the spots get filled up right away! I'd definitely recommend it to others."

  • "I love this software. The ease of use alone - it's like you guys think the same way I do! I kept saying, why can't someone just do it this way?! And you did. Our volunteers are going to be so thrilled because it's so easy to sign up. I'm kicking myself for not finding this two years ago when I did my initial search."
