What do you like best about Event.Gives?

It was pretty user friendly. And helped us collect money Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

It could be better mobile friendly on a mobile phone. We had to use our personal device to sell raffle tickets and drink tickets and it was very easy to accidentally over charge people. The space to type in the number of tickets they wanted was too small Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello Fanatic!

Thank you for the review. It seems like the platform was able to support you in multiple facets during your event and we are so happy to hear it.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the mobile aspect for backend/admin use. Although we do always recommend using a laptop or tablet when having to assist attendees through the manager portal, we understand that sometimes you have to use whatever is available. We will continue to work to improve the mobile utility through the manager portal and hope to exceed your expectations!

If you'd like to send an email to support@event.gives, we can share with you some upcoming features that we are excited about launching!

"The absolute BEST platform!"

As a fundraising auctioneer, the fact the platform has no latency is HUGE. The team at E.G. is second to NONE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing that I can think of that I do not like about the company or their platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives met all of our event management needs for our annual gala. From auctions to multiple ticket packages, the software had all the functionality we were looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

Event.gives has an integration with Bloomerang that we were hoping to utilize, however, it is not a complete sync/integration, and still requires manual data entry. Eve.tGives also has some limitations regarding night of auctions as opposed to silent auctions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Event.Gives?

I like that event gives is affordable and has a nice basic template. It's easy to use and to add items. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

As a basic template I wish I had more freedom to design the site, but it works for the price point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Event.Gives?

Event.Gives makes it easy to collect and retain attendee data and to follow up with donations. The texting feature is great for pre and post event! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

I wish that the people assigned to our event were more involved/invested/knowledgable. They were not very involved and the help/IT team are non-existent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Kelsey!

Event.Gives is fanatical about data - and we are glad you are too! Our Blast Messaging feature for pre and post-event is useful for silent auction times, event updates, and so much more! Below is a link to one of our social media posts going more in-depth about this feature.

If you ever want your event team to join our demos on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday @ 2:00 PM EST to see an in-depth overview of our platform for more involvement and knowledge - you can go to event.gives/go to join!

Easy to use and set up the auction. We've used it in the past for a live stream event which was great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Event.Gives?

The cost to remove the automatic donation going to Event Gives was too much for our anticipated income for this year's event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
