"Swell is swell!"

4/5

What do you like best about Swell Fundraising?

I like that with Swell all aspects of fundraising is in one place. Information about the event/fundraiser, a place to purchase/donate and then there is automatic responses that go out to donors to keep them engaged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swell Fundraising?

Editing the swell pages can be time consuming and don't allow as much creative freedom within their system. We have to do creative design in a different program and then upload that image to swell. Not terrible just an extra step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Swell Fundraising:

Swell slides is awesome but works best when hard wired to the internet. Most venues we have tried to use it at don't have a strong enough wifi signal to play back the videos we have. Slides work great but videos take a more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Swell Fundraising solving and how is that benefiting you?

Table events are done well through swell. We have to get creative when doing other events in Swell like our Golf tournament. It works but has to be thought through differently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome Experience"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Swell Fundraising?

The ease of using the Swell platform makes things seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swell Fundraising?

The only thing I would say is to be sure you are using it a) to its capabilities and b) that it is the right solution for you. I used it with one organization and my experience was great, but it wasn't the right solution for them at the time. However, I continue to recommend it to organizations who need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Swell Fundraising solving and how is that benefiting you?

I will be recommending this to another organization to help solve the complications that arise from a table seating event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Visual Appeal and Ease"

5/5

What do you like best about Swell Fundraising?

"In the Trenches"

5/5
