GiveSmart, a Community Brands company, offers a full-service event management platform supporting event website, event registration, attendee tracking, donor management and data insights, and full customer service for entities wishing to raise funds via an auction or charity event. The platform also integrates technology from Community Brands brand Gesture to provide a comprehensive suite of services.
GiveSmart replaces the former 501 Auctions, a platform to support charity auctions, mobile…
We actually use both of these products for different reasons. GiveSmart has a very comprehensive event management product, however, the two products do not communicate with one another so it's often arduous to input donor data from GiveSmart into Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT. …
I used Daxko while at a YMCA, at the time I had just come from an organization using RE and NXT, and felt like it was a huge step down in fundraising-specific functionality. We use GiveSmart for the online bidding capabilities but I hope in the future we will be able to use …
Blackbaud is a best-in-class system...they have been doing this longer than the competition and only work with nonprofits (unlike Salesforce, which has a more general use for various industries). Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT was easy to use, has the functionality to do a lot …
GiveSmart chose us as they merged with MobileCause, but we selected MobileCause years ago after using Blackbaud Convio (now Luminate). So much easier and much more customization is available. (We tried DoJiggy in between but found MobileCause, at that time, worked better for …
Have also used Blackbaud Peer to Peer powered by JustGiving which is not on the above list.
GiveSmart gave us the most overall flexibility and the ability to add offline donations to fundraiser and team page, which Everyday Hero did provide us but JustGiving did not. This …
Looked into Classy and Blackbaud's peer-to-peer products. Went with GiveSmart because they offered the same services without a transaction fee for each donation, just one flat fee to use the service.
We used Qtego for our gala auction for two years but then looked for options because it was difficult to use and did not have nearly the reporting capabilities we wanted. GiveSmart is so much easier for both the organization and our attendees, and gives us a wealth of data …
GiveSmart is a slightly different platform, in that it was initially built as an event management tool. Back in the day, you might have purchased it alongside a more traditional fundraising solution to manage event specifics. But, as other products have evolved to offer more …
GoFundMe, at the time I researched it, did not provide enough customization and personalization as we would need for our events.

Chose GiveSmart
The other mobile bidding systems we used are no longer in existence. Many have merged together. The biggest advantage GiveSmart had over the other platforms was flat rate pricing. That is why we selected them.
We used Bidr our first year of exploring mobile bidding and had a truly horrendous experience across the board - the technology didn't work as it was supposed to, the technical support was terrible, and the customer support was nearly non-existent.
