## Reviews

### "We use it for an annual auction event" — 4.0/5

> **Arthur** | *10 April 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is now all done on a web page. This has been a large improvement over  the older versions.  It is quick and easy for our volunteers to use. &#10;Support is excellent when you need it.
> 
> **Cons**: It can sometime time out when your are in a conference center wifi. Logging in can be confusing for volunteers
> 
> It works perfectly for our client to do their annual fund raiser

### "CAA Greater Giving Review" — 5.0/5

> **Kevin** | *17 July 2024* | Fund-Raising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Greater Giving is a great product for nonprofit auctions, has a smooth platform for auction guests, and as an easy ticketing system.
> 
> **Cons**: No major cons with Greater Giving at this time.

-----

### "Glitchy, clumsy, not intuitive" — 2.0/5

> **Claire** | *26 June 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is a platform that collects money. But that’s about all that I can say positively about Greater Giving. Their customer service and technical support is helpful, but I shouldn’t have to call them as often as I do.
> 
> **Cons**: The page formats are really outdated looking. Customization is limited and glitchy. Reports are hard to understand. Everything seems to take 10 steps, when it could be done in 2.
> 
> Clumsy, glitchy, counter-intuitive program. I work with computer programs all day long, and this one is just wayyyyy too complicated for what it is. And the webpages look like they’re designed for Netscape 98. Shouldn’t be this hard.

### "Greater Giving is A Great Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Lisa** | *2 February 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to use with solid, quick support when necessary. Very user friendly overall. Great value for the cost\! Works better than many more expensive programs. This is the second place I have worked where I have used it and will continue to endorse it going forward.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some areas where more training is needed or pieces can be added to make the creation of an event or fundraiser more complete or easier.
> 
> Definitely the best value out there for platforms of this sort. I would refer anyone to use it who works with events and fundraising.

### "Greater Giving Saved Our Auction" — 5.0/5

> **Ann** | *12 March 2024* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Greater Giving has been instrumental in ensuring a smooth transition from in-person auctions to the online way of doing business now. Prior to Covid we had the opportunity to begin using Greater Giving for our in person events and it made such a difference in the management of our auction. The transition to online fundraising was a breeze with Greater Giving.  I especially appreciate the amazing customer service whenever I have a question.  So very helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes when I "chat" with help I'm referred right to an article to read to figure it out. I admit, that frustrates me a bit, but I get it. I'm a visual person and figuring out this program all on my own, well, as an ED sometimes I just need you to tell me what to do and show me how to do it. Figuring out the website and the scrolling marque has been the most frustrating. I don't like that you can't resize the marquee of donors to make them bigger.  It would be a better visual especially when you are trying to brand your event and be consistent with graphics.
> 
> My overall experience has been great. It's a learning curve for sure, but worth it.
