Rafflecopter has proven to be a reliable choice for running giveaways, particularly when there are multiple types of entry involved. Users have found the platform easy to set up and appreciate its convenience for lead generation purposes. One common challenge in running giveaways directly through Instagram is the time-consuming process of managing entries. Rafflecopter offers a simpler alternative, eliminating the need to create spreadsheets and allowing users to easily manage their giveaways. Implementing contests is made simple and effortless with Rafflecopter, as users can sign up and select winners with minimal effort. Many users have specifically used Rafflecopter for social media giveaways, considering it one of the best platforms available for this purpose. Additionally, the affordability of Rafflecopter makes it accessible to a wide range of users who appreciate the difference it makes in how they run their giveaways.

Easy Setup: Many users have found the setup process of the product to be incredibly easy and straightforward. They appreciate how quickly they can get started with running contests without any hassle or complications.

Variety of Entry Actions: Users highly value the product's ability to offer a wide range of entry actions. This feature allows them to provide different ways for participants to engage and enter contests, resulting in increased participation and excitement.

Responsive Customer Service: The customer service provided by the product is consistently praised for its exceptional responsiveness. Users commend the fast, clear, and direct assistance they receive whenever they have questions or need support.

Missing API: Some users have expressed frustration over the lack of an API in the software, which limits its functionality and integration with other systems. They feel that having an API would greatly enhance their ability to customize and automate processes.

Outdated Knowledge Base Article: Several reviewers have mentioned that they are disappointed with the outdated information in the knowledge base article regarding the consideration of an API. These users indicate a lack of updates and progress on this front, which makes them question the commitment to improving the software.

Lack of Updated Integrated Email Service Providers: A number of users have pointed out that the list of integrated email service providers has not been updated for a long time. This suggests a lack of effort in keeping up with industry changes and advancements, making it difficult for businesses to connect with their preferred email marketing platforms.

Users commonly recommend the following:

  • The system can be adapted to any business, providing equally good results for personal or corporate use.
  • Utilize the system to reach more people and generate sign-ups for newsletters and marketing interaction.
  • Start with the free trial and then become a user.
  • Try the free version first to see if it suits your needs, and play around with it before going live.

Users emphasize the adaptability of the system, its marketing capabilities, and the importance of trying it out through a free trial period before committing.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Rafflecopter to run our giveaways. It can be difficult to internally collect information for a giveaway and we have found Rafflecopter to be a solid option when running a giveaway with multiple types of entry. Running giveaway directly through Instagram can require a lot of work like creating spreadsheets of entries.
Pros and Cons
  • Multiple Ways to Enter
  • Information on Entries
  • Picking a Winner
Likelihood to Recommend
Rafflecopter is well suited for giveaways where you want to have people enter in multiple ways and having the option to choose specific ways. For example, if you want people to follow on social media sites (YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, etc.) or post on the social media sites. It has a great feature to customize your own option as well. For podcasts like us, we like to have entries follow us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts.

Rafflecopter is the go to platform for giveaways!

Likelihood to Recommend
This is such an easy platform to set up and connect to the different social media channels that you would want to use for an upcoming giveaway. It makes it simple for your participants to join and is an easy way for you to increase your engagement in the contests.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We would have giveaways of products for a website I owned, so we would use Rafflecopter to help users sign up for the contest and pick a winner. Rafflecopter was a simple and easy way to implement the contest and allow us to do this with minimal effort on our side of things.
Pros and Cons
  • Easy to use.
  • Great communication during the contest period.
  • Many options are available for contests.
Likelihood to Recommend
Great product to use when running a contest on your website. Easy to use and great customer service if you have any questions. Could use some more variety in options for people to earn entries, but overall great.

Rafflecopter is great for a basic giveaway. Might not be enough for large business/enterprise needs.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Rafflecopter to host giveaways for select departments of our non-profit organization. Rafflecopter provides an easy to setup platform to quickly create a giveaway for lead generation. An example would be to giveaway a pair or running shoes.
Pros and Cons
  • Easy to setup
  • Provides a good variety of entry actions
  • Has a simple end user interface
Likelihood to Recommend
I'd say that Rafflecopter is a good tool for a basic giveaway. It doesn't seem like they've made any substantial changes in several years. If you're looking to host a one-off or occasional giveaway, Rafflecopter will do what you need it to do, but if a giveaway platform is a major component of your marketing strategy, look elsewhere.

Pros and Cons
  • Rafflecopter helps to connect our business with our clients outside of clinic.
  • Rafflecopter allows the ability for our clients to spread the word about our clinic through our social media efforts.
  • Rafflecopter truly lets us see how successful we are with our clients, especially because if our patients were not truly satisfied with our services, then they would not want to take part in the giveaways and promotions that we run through Rafflecopter.
Likelihood to Recommend
We would highly recommend Rafflecopter to any other small business owner that is looking for better ways to interact with their customers and build up customer satisfaction and participation in the company. It is especially great how Rafflecopter helps to build our website rankings and social media (i.e., the number of "Likes" on our Facebook page).

Pros and Cons
  • Fast, clear, and direct responsiveness of customer service.
  • Step by step directions makes for easy contest implementation. Also Rafflecopter makes sure your contest is fully compliant with Facebook policies.
  • Website is fast and easy to navigate. Viewing your contest and making changes is very easy.
Likelihood to Recommend
Having a good email list of active address would be helpful for converting those addresses to FB followers. Also having an active FB page with plenty of original content will better engage your audience. Having these two things will greatly help your contest with rafflecopter. Using and intergrating rafflecopter is easy and should be a breeze with your campaign. I highly recommend it!
