I needed a specialty report and the VolunteerLocal Support person quickly provided me a Google Spreadsheet that gave me exactly what I needed and taught me how to do it myself. > > **Cons**: A couple of minor suggestions. I needed to capture of summary of tshirt size AND hat size. I would have liked to see both on my dashboard. > > I found VolunteerLocal to be responsive and quick to deal with questions and they focused on resolutions. ----- ### "Shift Reminders Through Text & New Jobs" — 4.0/5 > **Lindsay** | *May 6, 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked working with \[sensitive content hidden\] because she was able to diagnose my problem quickly and present fast and efficient solutions. > > **Cons**: There was nothing that I didn't like, but what I struggled a bit with was that our use of the site might need to have some large changes in order to make quick fixes. The way we have our programs and events set up allow for some capabilities but act as an obstacle for others. > > I appreciated that my feedback was valued and that \[sensitive content hidden\] at VL was able to walk me through our processes and any concerns that I may have had. She was thorough and considerate of our experience. ----- ### "Get VolunteerLocal -- it works\!" — 5.0/5 > **Kay** | *July 23, 2026* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have 921 volunteer shifts (12 jobs) over a week to fill. This program -- recommended by our city's arts organization -- is astoundingly good. Best of all, the Support staff are REAL people who respond to my email requests quickly, patiently, and skillfully. Plus, it makes sorting out reports (like who gets which T-shirt) easy. I'm really impressed. > > **Cons**: The learning curve to get it set up is pretty steep -- expect to spend a couple thoughtful days putting your information where it needs to be and testing it internally. But the Support Staff were great about walking me through the map of the site to help get me oriented. > > I end up mentioning learning about VolunteerLocal as one of the perks of this job. Seriously (they're not giving me any money to say that). As a retired teacher, I've had to use a LOT of platforms, and this is one of the best. ----- ### "Feedback - Shoes and Clothes For Kids" — 5.0/5 > **Liz** | *June 24, 2026* | Fund-Raising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The platform is intuitive, easy to use, and simple to share with others. It has significantly improved our ability to keep staff informed and up to date on who to expect and when, helping our daily operations run much more smoothly. the support from you and your team has been outstanding. The video trainings are clear, helpful, and right on target, and I sincerely appreciate the quick and responsive customer service whenever questions arise. > > **Cons**: I have to sign in every day - system could at least "remember" my user name. I have clicked button several times but it doesn't work. > > Overall, expectations have been exceeded. As the Volunteer Manager for Shoes and Clothes for Kids, I have been using VolunteerLocal for nearly a year and a half, and I truly “touch” the system every single day.

I would like a simple table of contents for each problem people encounter, click on it, receive solution (especially for those who have trouble remembering - the elderly volunteer coordinators)\! > > EXCELLENT Personal Supportive Encouraging Positive Friendly Informative Sensational Good sense of humor Intuiutive ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/122906/volunteerlocal?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/122906/volunteerlocal) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
