"An auctioneer software for everyone!"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives is super user friendly for both the user and admin. It's a clean design, makes it super easy for people to engage, offers several features, and can be used in a virtual setting with ZERO latency!!! Also, you can't beat their pricing model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

It still is lacking some of the reporting capabilities that other softwares provide. There are a lot of work arounds as you can export the data, but it's got some work to do on here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Seth,

We're glad you liked the virtual capabilities our platform has to offer - zero latency is a real game changer in a fast paced auction environment! We are always looking for ways to improve and feedback like yours helps us to do so. Keep an eye out for updates to our reporting tools in the future!

Thank you for your #FanaticalReview!

"Customer Service is beyond compare"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Their team was incredibly supportive and helpful with setting up our event site, AND it's all FREE support. We ended up paying to have them at our event as extra support, but they were available and SO HELPFUL during the planning process, which I appreciated as this year was my first year with our nonprofit. The platform is sooo user friendly and even our older demographic had no issues using their phones to bid and engage throughout our event. We exceeded our goals this year and this platform was a HUGE help in doing so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

It took some getting used to their reporting but their customer support team helped walk me through it and helped me understand how to get the information we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Kathryn,

There's nothing we love more than helping charitable organizations exceed their fundraising goals - mission accomplished! We are so glad to hear that our platform had your guests so engaged at this year's event. Remember: you can book a call with our Customer Success team at any time. They'd be more than happy to any questions you have relating to the platform's features and reporting, as well as general best practices. We're here to help!

"Super smooth ticketing and check-in features!"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

I honestly can not stress how much we loved switching to Event.Gives and how their ticketing feature streamlined EVERYTHING on event day. Not only was it so simple and easy to set up the tickets themselves, but guests found it very user friendly to navigate when making their ticket purchases, and check-in was an absolute breeze. The site collects and stores contact information and credit card information when each purchase is made, so by the time our attendees arrived, all we had to do was scan them in and they could immediately start mingling and bidding through their mobile phones in the silent auction. There were no check-in lines, no swiping cards at the door, and just an overall positive first impression. When we got to checkout, guests could easily pay at the click of a button because their cards were all already stored in their account. We will be using this platform for all of our future events! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

There was nothing to dislike - Event.Gives for the win!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Rita,

We are so glad to hear that our ticketing feature made check-in and data collection such a breeze for you! A good first impression goes a long way towards maximizing your fundraising goals, and it's great to hear that you were able to create such a memorable experience for your guests. We looks forward to working with you on your next event - be sure to schedule a free call with one of our fanatical customer success experts when you're ready to get started, for coaching, tips and best practices!

"Everyone left happy!"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

The check-out process was incredibly efficient and hassle-free. The ability to blast out personalized payment links for each guest directly to their phones simplified the payment collection, eliminating the need for manual transactions, swiping credit cards or handling cash on-site. This streamlined approach not only saved time but also enhanced the overall guest experience, as guests could simply ‘grab and go’ with their won items at the end of the night. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

Not exactly a dislike, as we were very pleased with the platform as a whole, but it would be nice to be able to customize the link blast messages, rather than them being set templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Thomas,

A smooth check-out is key to leaving a lasting impression on your donors, and it sounds like you nailed it using Event.Gives - we love to hear it!

We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us constantly improve. Check out our blast messaging feature - it is fully customizable and you can even schedule messages in advance so that you can focus your efforts on the event itself come event day.

Thank you for your #FanaticalReview!

"Silent auction was a hit!"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives' silent auction feature was a game-changer for our gala. It allowed us to create an engaging and interactive silent auction experience for our guests, and resulted in a significant increase in funds raised. The ability to view auction items, place bids, and receive real-time outbid notifications kept our attendees actively engaged - the fact that they could do it all right there from their phones without even putting down their drinks, motivated them to bid more and added an element of excitement and competition. Our silent auction did FAR better this year than previous years and we will be sticking with this software from now on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

Our guests, being an older crowd, were initially apprehensive about participating in a fully digital auction. We had used a similar software previously and had terrible feedback, forcing us to go back to old-school paper bid sheets. Our guests were somewhat resistant to another online silent auction, but thank goodness the platform is so user-friendly on the attendee side, because once they saw how easy it was to register and place bids, they were all sold on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Allison,

It sounds like your silent auction was a great success - we are stoked to hear that our software help you to exceed your fundraising goals and provide an engaging experience for your guests! We are always happy to provide training for your and your staff/volunteers leading up to your event to ensure everyone is confident assisting your guests as they learn to navigate the platform.

"All the features we needed in one place"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives truly stands out as an all-encompassing platform that brings all the essential event management features together in one place. From registration and ticketing, to auctions, donations, and more, Event.Gives covered every aspect of our event needs. This comprehensive approach saved us time and effort by eliminating the need for multiple software tools or integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

Some of the reporting tools were perhaps not as comprehensive as we would have liked but they did the job and covered all of the basics. I believe they are working to improve their reporting tools in the future new website launch, so we will definitely be looking forward to this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Anna,

It sounds like Event.Gives covered all of your event management needs in one place, which we love to hear! We are constantly working on improvements and updates to our platform's features - keep an eye out for more of these in our upcoming new website build.

"Transparent pricing with no hidden fees or contracts"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

We loved that there was no cost associated with setting up an event on the platform. We were able to go on and create a manager account, have a training call with their customer service team to learn the software and all the features, and create our entire event site without spending a single cent! There was zero cost until we started processing credit cards, and the pricing works for any budget, as it is a percentage of each credit card transaction. You can choose in your settings whether you want the fees deducted from the donation amount or whether you want the donor to be charged for it. We found that our donors didn’t bat an eye at seeing a credit card fee when they went to check out, and passing on the fees helped us to maximize on the amount we raised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

It would be great if they integrated with some CRMs other than just Blackbaud, but from my understanding that is something they hope to add in the future and significantly didn’t affect our overall experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Wesley,

We are so glad you were happy with our pricing - we recently updated our pricing model based on feedback we had received and we believe it provides an affordable solution for organizations of all sizes! We have some exiting new features to announce with our upcoming new website build - be sure to tune in for our live demo on Tuesdays at 2pm EST for updates.

"Seamless Check-in and Check-out Experience"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives provided an incredibly seamless and hassle-free check-in and check-out experience for our event. Our guests raved about the smooth registration process, and the ability to bid and pay right from their phones. It left a lasting impression and contributed to the overall success of our event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

We wished for more robust reporting capabilities. Although the existing reports were helpful, we would have loved to access more comprehensive and customizable insights. We did include this in our feedback, and they immediately got back to us to let us know that this is something they are working on for when they launch their new site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Sonia,

A seamless check-in makes for a great first impression, and we love to hear that you were able to provide a positive arrival experience for your guests using Event.Gives! We are currently working on improving our reporting capabilities, so keep an eye out for some exciting new updates with our upcoming new website build.

"Real-Time Display Feature Was a Game Changer For Our Paddle Raise!"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives' real-time display feature was a game-changer for our paddle raise. The instant updates on the display screen and the ease of entering pledges in real time created an electrifying atmosphere, fueling excitement and driving our donors to raise their paddles higher. It was a powerful tool that not only engaged our audience but also helped us exceed our fundraising goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

The real-time display feature was incredibly effective, but if I'm being picky, we would have appreciated a little more in the way of customization options to align it with our event's branding ie. choosing the background color and/or making the image more prominent. We did love that we were able to include sponsor images here, though. Nevertheless, this minor aspect didn't overshadow the overall success and impact of the platform - it would just be a great addition! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Charlotte,

It's great to hear that your paddle raise was such a success using our real-time display feature! We are always looking for ways to improve our platform's features, so keep an eye out for extra customization features with our upcoming new website build.

"Exceptional Customer Support that Goes Above and Beyond"
What do you like best about Event.Gives?

The customer support provided by Event.Gives was truly outstanding. From the moment we signed up, their team was proactive in reaching out, responsive, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to ensure our event's success, guiding us through every step of the process with patience and expertise. They even trained all of my volunteers on the software prior to event night, completely for FREE! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

Honestly, there isn't much to dislike. Perhaps having extended support hours would be a minor improvement, but their overall level of service more than made up for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Molly Daft of Event.Gives

Hi Eric,
