Overall Satisfaction with GiveSmart

I used GiveSmart for a fundraising Gala to support my school. GiveSmart made our auction process so much more professional. It allowed us the opportunity to share our auction items with alumni all over the country, therefore with people who could not attend the gala to purchase items. This increased our revenue significantly. Also, at the event, it allowed our guests to bid throughout the evening rather than hopping up and down to write their names on a traditional bid sheet. We are already securing auction items and will use GiveSmart again!
  • Using auction item description and uploading photos in GiveSmart is easy.
  • GiveSmart allows us to reach a larger audience to bid on auction items.
  • GiveSmart also offers on-site support at an event, which we utilized.
  • GiveSmart has a great telephone training team!
  • I suggest making auction item revenue vs. attendance revenue easier to distinguish.
  • GiveSmart increased our fundraising revenue by reaching more donors that couldn't attend our event.
GiveSmart came highly recommended by a colleague. I haven't used another auction platform.
It's a great product-but a bit hard to use while at an event that requires using volunteers.
Good telephone support, but I was disappointed that we had to pay for on-site support at our first time using the service.
We had a terrible time trying to upload our logo.

GiveSmart is best suited for events with an auction. It's less appropriate for something like a 5K.
