# Unison

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/332673/unison

> Unison is volunteer management software designed for organizations that need a simple, modern platform without the complexity of traditional volunteer management systems. Churches, schools, nonprofits, and community organizations use Unison to recruit, schedule, and communicate with volunteers — all from one centralized platform their team will actually use.

Getting Started Is Simple
Create a volunteer signup in minutes, customize it with your branding, and share a single link that gives volunteers visibility into every open opportunity. No complicated onboarding. Just a clean, intuitive interface that works the way your team already thinks about scheduling.

Volunteers Sign Up From Any Device
Unison is built mobile-first, so volunteers can browse opportunities and sign up from their phone, tablet, or desktop without friction. Custom signup questions let coordinators collect the information they need upfront, reducing back-and-forth before the event.

Automatic Reminders That Reduce No-Shows
Unison sends customizable email and text message reminders automatically before every shift. Coordinators set them once and Unison takes care of the rest — no manual follow-up needed.

Scheduling Tools Built for Real Coordinators
Drag-and-drop scheduling makes it easy to build and adjust shifts on the fly. Repeating assignments save time for recurring roles — set them once and they populate automatically going forward. Sub requests let volunteers find their own replacements when something comes up, removing that burden from the coordinator entirely. 
Custom groups make it easy to segment volunteers by role, team, or program so the right people always see the right opportunities. Multiple administrators can share access so coordination doesn't fall on a single person.

Built-In Communication
Unison includes a built-in emailer so coordinators can message volunteers directly from the platform without switching tools. Send broadcast messages to all volunteers, a specific group, or just the people signed up for a particular shift. Email attachments let you share waivers, instructions, or documents directly with volunteers before they arrive.

Reporting and Visibility
Unison's centralized dashboard gives coordinators a clear, real-time picture of upcoming signups, who's confirmed, and where gaps need to be filled. Built-in hours reporting tracks volunteer participation over time, making it easy to recognize your most dedicated contributors, demonstrate program impact to stakeholders, and make smarter decisions about future scheduling and recruitment.

Directory Pages and Custom URLs
On the Team plan, organizations get a branded volunteer directory page with a custom URL and QR code — a single destination volunteers can bookmark to find and sign up for every available opportunity. This is especially useful for churches and nonprofits that want to make volunteering as visible and accessible as possible.

Who Uses Unison?
Unison is built for small to mid-sized organizations that want powerful volunteer coordination without enterprise-level complexity or cost. It's a strong fit for churches managing weekly service volunteers, schools coordinating parent volunteers across events, nonprofits running ongoing community programs, and any organization that depends on a reliable, engaged volunteer base to get things done.

Ad-Free on Every Paid Plan
Volunteers see a clean, professional experience every time they interact with your organization — no ads, no clutter.

Pricing That Scales With You
Unison offers a free tier to get started, with paid plans from $20/month. The Team plan at $44/month unlocks unlimited signups, repeating assignments, directory pages, custom URLs, QR codes, and SMS reminders — everything a growing organization needs to run a professional volunteer program.
