Great platform and great staff

I have only being using this platform for a few weeks and so far I have had a positive experience using it. I have managed to recruit new volunteers in a very limited timeframe, thanks to the app and have had some very supportive help from the team to my many questions. I really believe that this will be a gamechanger for recruiting volunteers.

Hi Michelle,

Thank you so much for this review, Michelle. It's fantastic to hear that, after a few weeks of use, you're loving the system and you've recruited new volunteers in a short period of time!

We’re so glad you’ve felt supported along the way. We really put a lot of emphasis on making sure our customers feel guided and looked after from day one.

Lovely team and a decent platform

The team at Volunteero are absolutely lovely. They genuinely care about their clients and try hard to meet our needs. I've found them to be supportive and flexible in a way you don't get with big well established companies. The reason my rating is 4 not 5 stars is because the system is not be able to provide the insights and reporting we understood it to be capable of when we signed up. The team are working hard to ensure it can by the end of our first year with them so fingers crossed!

A fantastically intuitive system

A fantastically intuitive system that has really help us as a volunteer organisation, making things easier for us and our volunteers. The Volunteero team are so quick to respond to give support and bring improvements which has been so valuable to us. All the features give us all we need to successfully and efficiently support our clients on a large scale! I would really recommend using Volunteero!

Thank you so much for this lovely review! It’s brilliant to hear how Volunteero has helped make things easier for both your team and your volunteers, especially when you’re supporting clients on such a large scale. Knowing the system feels intuitive and gives you everything you need to work efficiently is exactly what we aim for.

We've absolutely loved working with you over the past few years, and we're really excited to see what the new year brings :)

Makes volunteer coordination streamlined

We had demos of a few different volunteer apps before going with Volunteero. It was an easy choice.

The app is incredibly easy to use, as both manager and volunteer, and makes coordinating volunteers quick and much more streamlined. Volunteers get extra detail they need once they accept the mission and once the mission is filled no other volunteers can see it. If they can't do it anymore, they just decline and then it reappears for other volunteers to pick up. This stopped emails flying back and forth either trying to fill missions or finding replacement if a volunteer is ill or similar.
The company listens to feedback from users and work to introduce features we would find useful. You can really tell it has been built from input of volunteer managers - it has everything you need but isn't overcrowded asking non essential details.
The staff are also really friendly and respond quickly to any questions or queries. So glad we got this for our volunteers. It has helped enormously and saved me so much time sending emails back and forth.

Hiya Kate,

Thank you so much for sharing this, and for trusting Volunteero after taking the time to explore other options. Knowing it felt like an easy choice means a great deal to us!

We love hearing how the app has made coordinating volunteers so much simpler, both for you and for your volunteers. Cutting down the back-and-forth emails and making it easy to fill (and refill!) missions is exactly the kind of real-world problem we set out to solve, so hearing how much time it’s saved you is incredibly rewarding.

We also really appreciate you highlighting the feedback side of things. Volunteero has been shaped by volunteer managers from day one, so knowing that comes through, useful without being overcrowded, means we’re on the right track!

And thank you for the kind words about the team. We genuinely love working closely with organisations like yours, and we’re so glad the platform has helped make such a positive difference for your volunteers and for you😊

We discovered Volunteero about 6 months ago and transitioned our team of volunteers on to the platform. We found the process very straightforward and after a couple of sessions with the team we were able to use the platform with ease. The app is easy to download and clear to use. The majority of our processes are now in one place saving us, as well as our volunteers precious time! It has replaced the need for over emailing and given us a secure platform to share details with our volunteers. We have found the team at Volunteero to be very responsive and happy to assist with any queries we have. We are looking forward to seeing how the platform progresses in the future!

Hi Caroline,

Thank you so much for sharing this. We’re really glad the move to Volunteero felt straightforward.

It’s great to know that having everything in one place has saved time for both you and your volunteers, and that moving away from endless emails has made day-to-day coordination easier and more secure. Thanks as well for the kind words about our team, we’re always happy to help!

A superb app, backed by a superb team.

Volunteero has absolutley changed the way I am running volunteering sessions. It is a massive streamlining of the work I do with a simple interface and encourages volunteers to take responsibility for their volunteering on their mobile devices. The app has massively reduced the admin time for me, an example of this is our Christmas campaign which used to take me 5 weeks of preparation to bring in 600 volunteers across numerous sessions with different time slots. This year with Volunteero it took me 35 minutes. It then took me 15 minutes to set up all the volunteering sessions for 2023 in its entirety.

Add to this, the team behind the app. They make you feel part of the team, they are always available and only one click away if you need help or guidance. They listen and actively encourage feedback which is then used to improve the user experience. I cannot recommend the app or the team highly enough.

Thank you so much for this review, Steve, it genuinely means a lot to us!

We're so pleased that Volunteero has dramatically changed the way you run volunteering sessions, and that it’s saved you such a huge amount of time, which is exactly why we do what we do. Taking something that used to take weeks and turning it into minutes is an amazing result, and we’re so glad the app has helped make that possible.

We also really appreciate your kind words about the team. Making sure our customers feel supported, listened to, and part of the journey is hugely important to us, and it means a lot to know that comes across.

Thank you for trusting us and for such a strong recommendation💜

A real partnership

From the first moment we got in touch with the Volunteero team we have been so impressed with their support, professionalism, understanding of our organisational needs and their positive "can do attitude". Working with Volunteero is more than just a supplier/ customer relationship as it feels like a team effort and a real partnership.

Really great to work with!

As a small charity managing a lot of volunteers, we were struggling to maintain good communication, effective spreadsheets and clear systems. And then we met the team at Volunteero who promised us help and haven't disappointed! Their platform is easy to use once you have had a few sessions with their team talking you through everything, and they are responsive to ideas for change and ways to make it work for you. They are super helpful, and I really recommend working with them if you are looking for a clear way to manage volunteers and their admin. I wish we had found them years ago!

After spending many hours (and days!) researching various CRM systems I came across Volunteero- they were the light at the end of one very dark tunnel!

At the time, I was seeking the technology to help Food Friends grow safely and effectively. I had considered several tech for good grants, with the thought of developing a custom made App for our innovative initiative. However, after an initial meeting with the Volunteero team it became very clear to me that this wasn't necessary. Volunteero's off the shelf product had EXACTLY what I was looking for- a CRM function and Volunteer App all in one tidy, well branded, easy to use package.

From the word go I felt confident that this was the right product for Food Friends. The trial period that Volunteero offered was incredibly well supported, meaning that I was able to iron out any potential operational kinks, with their help, before we fully onboarded. As a previous review also highlights, Volunteero are actively looking to make improvements to their product, so take on board any comments you may have and work on making the necessary changes- an incredible added bonus!

In a nutshell, Volunteero has provided us with an innovative platform to manage our volunteer work force. Its super user friendly, saves huge amounts of admin time, allows us to support our volunteer network with any concerns they may have and keeps track of our real time impact. Our volunteers love it!

Ultimately Volunteero is enabling us to manage larger numbers of volunteers and in turn help more people....and that's what it's all about!

Hey Anna,

Wow, thank you so much for sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review! 😊

We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that Volunteero has been the “light at the end of the tunnel” for Food Friends and that the platform has been able to support your growth safely and effectively. It’s fantastic to know that the system and the app together are helping save admin time, support your network, and track your impact, and that your volunteers are enjoying using it too!

We also really appreciate your note about the trial period and the way our team was able to support you! And yes, we love getting feedback from our users so we can continue improving the platform, so your comments mean a lot to us.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. Your words really make our day and motivate the whole team!

Before Volunteero...there was spreadsheets :(

Before Volunteero.... we were swamped by Spreadsheets. Having co-ordinated a high number of volunteers during the pandemic, who were and still are supporting local residents with meal drops, food parcel deliveries, prescription drop offs and grocery shopping; our team were struggling to keep on top of managing our volunteers. We had spreadsheets that glitched and duplicated constantly, we had to ring volunteers every time we had a task available to see if they'd be able to do it. Since joining volunteero we've saved ourself so much time and stress. Our volunteers can now easily pick and choose what missions they want to take on, on days and times that suit them. The reporting feature means we're able to track more closely the real impact that volunteers have in our community, as well as giving our funders up to date and interesting stats about our work. Because we've saved so much time, we've been able to take on more beneficiaries, recruit more volunteers , and ultimately make more of a difference in our community.
Volunteero has improved our projects ten fold and we couldn't recommend it more! Team VODA :)

ScotsCare's Blether Buddy befriending…

ScotsCare's Blether Buddy befriending service has used Volunteero for several months now. Our telephone befrienders use it to phone their clients, withhold their own personal numbers and report back to the coordinator straight away, rather than wait until the end of each month.
Now, we no longer spend time requesting their reports at the end of each month,(and chasing them up!) and entering the info on our spreadsheet; it automatically calculates the statistics we need for our reports, and alerts us immediately to any concerns.

It is constantly being developed and we intend to use it for other volunteer roles going forward, which the system now allows us to do.

Very pleased to be involved, thank you!

Volunteero ticks all the boxes

Volunteero ticks all the boxes as an easy to use, functional and user friendly app for our volunteers. As a service we can add loads of missions and info so Volunteers can browse and join opportunities or request further details. Volunteers can send expenses and reports. The app has replaced over-emailing and given us a secure platform to share our roles.

Fantastic app and team

Ash and the team at Volunteero are extremely helpful and offer support and guidance at every opportunity. They are continuing to develop Volunteero and the app has already come on leaps and bounds since we signed up at the beginning of 2021. As someone who oversees nearly 60 volunteers, Volunteero has freed up some of my time to continue growing the service, and with the new forms will do so even more. Highly recommended!
