Everything that I've thought that could be made better, I've contacted the Better Unite team and they've adjusted the platform or walked me through some alternate options - no complaints here!

Thank you for the review, Mary! We appreciate your feedback and truly enjoy working with you to make the platform everything that you and Unite Life needs to suceed at fundraising.
A Comprehensive Fundraising Tool with Exceptional Support
Comments: We’re really impressed with BetterUnite and love using it as first-time users. This platform is a game-changer for any nonprofit wanting to elevate their fundraising experience. It gave us the confidence to raise more funds for the causes we care about. A special thanks to the BetterUnite team, and particularly our Senior Account Manager, for their invaluable guidance and support. Their timely help was crucial in making sure our event was a success and that we left a positive impression on our guests, whether they attended in person or virtually.
Pros:
I love that BetterUnite is a comprehensive fundraising platform with tools for everything; from managing silent auctions, tracking bids, and recognizing donors to event registration, check-ins, guest participation (both in-person and virtual), and more. It’s impressive how many advanced features are available for free to nonprofits. The onboarding process was excellent, and the support was top-notch, ensuring the success of our first hybrid fundraising event. Even for a small nonprofit like ours, with limited fundraising experience, we found it easy to manage tasks like automated communications with guests and generating tax-deductible receipts for auction winners.
Cons:
The platform is very well-designed and can handle both simple and complex fundraising setups. However, initially, it took us a little time to fully understand how the payout process worked for the funds raised, but the support team quickly guided us through it and explained the process clearly.

Thank you so much, José, for taking the time to provide a review! We are just thrilled that you had such a great experience - that is truly our only goal. Let us know how we can better support you and your organization!
Alternatives Considered:
Great starter donor management software
Comments: It was great for our first donor management system. Since it was free, it allowed us the time to learn the system while not also racking up a monthly bill. We could learn at our own pace and not be pressing to get a ROI by using it too quickly without enough expertise
Pros:
It was free and easy to use. Customer support very responsive and detailed once you got them on email. They have a library of commonly asked questions and answers
Cons:
No live customer support. Submitting a ticket takes time to hear back for anything time sensitive.

First time user
Comments: Betterunite took the stress out of fundraising.
Pros:
The simplicity of the platform made sense. The ticket purchase and table seating process was awesome. The check -in process was smooth.
Cons:
There was nothing I disliked about the program.
Alternatives Considered:
BetterUnite, the de facto platform for charities and fundraising
Comments: Top notch. Working with [sensitive content hidden] has been amazing. [sensitive content hidden] has the right customer management skills to advance an organization's needs quickly.
Pros:
It's an E2E solution that knowingly covers all the aspects of charity and fundraising events with easy to use interfaces. It connects to most major payment systems and is widely known as a fundraising platform.
Cons:
I would like to see a commercial model where the client brings their own merchant processing solution using Authorize.net for example.
