The ability to duplicate previous setups significantly improves efficiency and reduces preparation time for subsequent elections. It is also a cost-effective solution that meets our organizational needs. When we encountered issues with undelivered emails, the technical support team responded promptly, identified the root causes, and resolved the problems effectively. Additionally, the online Help resources are comprehensive and informative, guiding users and providing answers. > > **Cons**: The reminder sending process is too manual. I have to select the outstanding voters one by one on each page, then send. I want to be able to send a reminder on schedule to all outstanding voters. > > An effective solution for supporting our electronic voting process, with scheduling features that automatically open and close voting sessions. It is also highly useful for conducting votes during our EGM and AGM meetings, where the ability to close voting immediately is essential. ----- ### "Elections-a-breeze" — 5.0/5 > **Anika** | *1 October 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This was easy to load for the different categories we had-some candidates were to be confirmed and some were to vote between 2 candidates. It's also a very economical platform and the voters liked it too > > **Cons**: I had to learn the language or definitions of the types of categories and voting methods and the correct one to use for each section > > This is an easy and secure process with which to work. Even from year to year, it was easy to remember the "how-tos" ----- ### "Election Buddy-2026 Professional Parliamentarian Review" — 4.0/5 > **Steve** | *22 March 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: They're very responsive by chat. I'm able to communicate and resolve most issues that come up. They were very helpful during a couple of recent elections when (a) the voter weight somehow didn't get transmitted, and (b) the client left out numerous voters. > > **Cons**: They still make website changes that cause disruption in the setup process. I can't find my previous chat to document so have to make sure I save it manually. There's a security exposure that hasn't been fixed. Long term; they may need to correct the parliamentary terminology that is used. > > Very good. Their 5 voter free demonstration feature is invaluable for educating prospective users. They have weighted precision where other vendors fall short. They can support a true secret ballot if their system is configured with absolutely no link between the access key and the particular voter. That meets the Robert's Rules' standard. ----- ### "Excellent Customer Service and Help\!" — 5.0/5 > **Katie** | *29 October 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customer service is amazing. They're quick to respond and will follow up with you to ensure your problem is solved. I had a question about adding in voters once the election was live and they walked with through how to edit it and add voters and included step by step articles > > **Cons**: The only con about ElectionBuddy would be the cost per election. If there is an error made and the election is already live, you have to close the vote and pay to do it again. They were able to give me a 50% credit but it would be nice to have like a grace period if the error is realized within a certain amount of time once going live. But overall we've used them for years and will continue to use them. ----- ### "Great program at a good price\!" — 5.0/5 > **Charmian** | *1 October 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: ElectionBuddy was very easy to employ for our union's digital elections. It was easy to learn about and set up, it was very secure, and came at a good price for us. I would highly recommend it to any organization. > > **Cons**: Nothing I can think of since it was easy to set up, train for use, secure, and easy for our constituents to use for our union's digital elections. > > Our union has used ElectionBuddy twice and has found that it's a great program for digital elections. The set-up, training, security involved, and its ease of use once employed by our members has no doubt ensured that we'll continue to use it in the future. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/344617/electionbuddy?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/344617/electionbuddy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
