"Bloomerang Volunteer Has Been Very Advantageous for Our Organization!"
It's been extremely useful for scheduling volunteers across various shifts. We've grown our volunteer base simply by having a platform where people can see all opportunities easily and sign up. The communication tools are great for sending reminders and emails or texts to volunteers. We've run into some app issues, like it not saving passwords, which is tough for our older volunteers who aren't as tech-savvy. Often they complain about needing to reset passwords repeatedly—mostly user error, but remembering logins would help. Some email tools aren't available yet, but I know they're coming. We can promote a range of volunteer opportunities in an attractive, user-friendly way, which has increased both our volunteer numbers and hours.

"Bloomerang Volunteer Greatly Supports My Volunteer Coordinator Role!"
I love the interface and customer support. It's easy to use and train others. There are some minor issues, but support is always responsive and they're continuously improving based on user feedback. I'd like a simpler schedule view that shows all volunteers in the building at once. They're committed to meeting volunteer managers' needs, even if they don't currently have all features.

"Excellent Program with Some Development Needed"
I really like that Bloomerang Volunteer links to my Bloomerang CRM, tracking my volunteer staff as constituents. It also lets volunteers book their own shifts, which saves me scheduling time. The user interface is still a bit clunky—not as polished or intuitive as Bloomerang Door, and I'd like it to be less confusing for both admins and volunteers. It saves time on scheduling and logging hours!

"Bloomerang Volunteer for Our Art Festival Coordination"
I appreciated the modern interface and automated email capability. It took a while to understand the software's terminology and how to set up roles and shifts; initially, reporting wasn't straightforward. There's definitely a learning curve, but we're excited to use it again next year with what we've learned. It's helping us manage volunteers for our huge annual art festival that draws thousands. It solves the challenge of having current contact info and clear communication with volunteers before the event.

"Moderate Experience with Bloomerang Volunteer at Best"
Bloomerang Volunteer offers many ways to integrate volunteer and development teams. Some features were user-friendly. We didn't use the system as much as we could have. The implementation process and discussions about our team's needs were very difficult. Customer success seemed more interested in selling the product than accommodating what we required. We ended up not using the software much, and I think there's significant room for improvement to make it easier for organizations. Still, it did help streamline group volunteer efforts and information collection.

"Disappointing: Confusing and Missing Fundamental Features"
One positive is that it integrates with Salesforce to some degree. But there are many missing features; for instance, you can't set your organization's time zone once, so you must adjust it for every opportunity unless you're near the western Mexican coast. Signing up as a volunteer is tedious and puzzling. Notifications seem unpredictable, and customization is almost impossible. The app is not intuitive—red sometimes means go, and green means stop, which is odd. It makes you jump through unnecessary and irritating steps for what should be a simple sign-up form. I shouldn't need a tech degree just to check in people and tally their hours. Interestingly, most Bloomerang staff also lack training on the software, so even paid phone support can take days to respond. We were promised a system that doesn't exist—this isn't what we expected or were sold. I regret switching to this software and hope we can endure until we can move to another platform. It does at least integrate volunteer data into Salesforce.

"Short-Term Opportunities That Suit Busy Lives"
The commitment is brief, fitting around work and family. However, projects or roles aren't always clearly defined. There's no long-term obligation.

"The app fails to display all available opportunities."
It improved data sync with Bloomerang CRM, introduced a Central Schedule feature for organization-wide scheduling issues, and enhanced recurring shift capabilities. But volunteer management lacks key functions. It does efficiently manage shifts and schedules based on availability and skills, reducing conflicts.

"User-Friendly Volunteer Management with Room to Grow"
Bloomerang Volunteer is simple to use, and I value how easy it is to post openings for potential volunteers. I can craft detailed descriptions and forms that effectively gather volunteer details. Sharing the link is effortless, resulting in more sign-ups and people passing it along, which extends my reach. It also lets volunteers easily see what's available based on their skills and free time. The tool is helpful for recruiting, coordinating, and appreciating our many volunteers throughout the school year. I'd like more form options like dropdowns and rating scales. There's been a learning curve I'm still working through. Adding icons has been problematic; I discovered they prevented my work from saving, which was annoying. Bloomerang Volunteer simplifies volunteers' access to opportunities and sign-up, matching their abilities and schedules. Its clear interface lets me build detailed postings, increasing participation and sharing. It assists us in recruiting, managing, and thanking volunteers effectively.

"Efficient Scheduling with Seamless CRM Integration That Pays Off"
The scheduling feature stands out, especially how well it works with Bloomerang CRM. It's straightforward to use, making it easy to create new volunteer positions, and it's been dependable whether on a computer or phone. The platform simplifies monitoring and connecting with volunteers compared to just using the CRM. The hours saved are definitely worth the cost and have boosted our team's productivity and capability. Pulling reports can be tricky when we need specific data; it often takes some experimentation to get what we want. It addresses our staffing shortages, volunteer timetables, and communication needs. Centralizing all volunteer details is crucial since it makes tracking waivers, training, and recognizing our most engaged volunteers straightforward.
