Always Helpful Support Team **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Des P. | Student Donor Experience Officer Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** The support team is always very helpful. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** The constant updates without being told about them. I don't mind the updates themselves, but the lack of communication costs a lot of time when trying to figure out why things are looking or working differently. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** It makes it a lot easier to contact constituents in one place, as well as keeping necessary information stored. I appreciate being able to do multiple forms of contact in one place such as email, phone call, and text. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Des - I appreciate you taking the time to write a review for us. I actually sit next to the team that sends out notifications for when there are updates, I am a bit surprised they are not getting to you. If you get a second, give our support team a shout to make sure we have the right email address for you on file, they can pass your information along to the right person on our marketing team. I will say that sometimes the notifications go to the admins on an account. Your point is well taken though and I will pass that along in case there are other things we can do to get notifications out! ### 2.

Efficient Multitasking with Room for Improvement **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Krisel Q. | Student Representative, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I really enjoy VanillaSoft's features and love the ability to view how many calls I make and how long each call lasts. The features that let me view my script, see caller information, and make calls at the same time are incredibly helpful for multitasking and getting work done efficiently. The call tracking feature is valuable as it allows me to review the quality of my work and the efficiency of my calls. The initial setup was also great. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** There’s a lot of small glitches in which the script disappears. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** Having features that let me view my script and caller info while calling helps me multitask efficiently. Call tracking lets me review call quality and efficiency. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Kristel - thank you so much for taking the time to write a review, I appreciate it! I'm happy to hear that we are making your calling work easier! ### 4. Effortlessly Organizes Leads and Appointments **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Zach B. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 23, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I like that VanillaSoft keeps my appointments organized based on time zones. It also helps keep my leads organized and reminds me when I have to call a client. The setup was very easy, as it was simple to sign up with email and connect to my laptop. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** there could be more callback time slots besides just 1 hour and 3 hours **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** VanillaSoft keeps my leads organized and reminds me when to call clients, while also organizing my appointments based on time zones. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Thanks for the review Zach, I appreciate you taking the time to write it - and this one is awesome, thanks. I'm glad to hear how we are helping you keep your appointments and leads all sorted out and easy to remember who to talk to next! ### 5. Organizes Well with Custom Options, Callbacks Need Improvement **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I appreciate that VanillaSoft keeps me organized in my insurance sales work. I like the customizable ability, allowing me to customize features and make it my own. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** Callbacks sometimes come up at a much later time if I miss it. They should come up on the very next opportunity. Also, callbacks don’t always pop up every single time on my Outlook reminders, only sometimes. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** VanillaSoft keeps me organized in my insurance sales work. I appreciate its customizable ability, allowing me to make it my own. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi - thanks for the review! Glad we are helping keep your leads organized. The callback timing feels like a configuration issue - have you or your admin talked to the support team? ### 6. Handy “No Answer” Shortcut Saves Time, Though There’s Room to Improve **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I like how there is the option of pressing "No Answer" without having to go into the drop-down menu of all of the options. This definitely saves me time every shift **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** Recently, I have been having a lot of issues with the calls not going through at all. Also, I feel like a decent amount of the time, the information that is provided about people is just completely wrong. For example, I will ask someone if they are still working at the job title that is given, and they tell me that they have never worked there. It makes the interaction more awkward, and I can tell that the prospects feel more uncomfortable after those situations. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** Progressive dialing is really nice overall because then we don't have to sit there and put every phone number into the phone before dialing. This saves a lot of time, and was very nice to adapt to using when I was introduced to it because I was able to call so many more people in the same time frame as normal. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi there - thanks for the review, I appreciate you taking the time. I am going to not say thanks at all though for how handy the "no answer" shortcut is, as that is not us - its your admin! That was a configurable thing that they set up for your campaign specifically, or at least for your organization overall, so huzzah! I'm glad we could help make that happen though. :) ### 7. Vanilla Soft Keeps My Leads Organized in One Place **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 19, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** Having my leads in Vanilla Soft has been a tremendous help to keeping me organized. All the data related to my prospects in one location has helped with managing appointments, callbacks, and maintaining customer relationships. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** I did like having the ability to listen to all of my recordings in Vanilla Soft without having to use another application or website. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vanilla Soft is solving prospects falling between the cracks. It keeps everything in one place and easy to follow up on leads. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi and thanks for writing a review! Love what you are saying about keeping all of your leads organized and managing your work! ### 8. Easily Navigatable, Modular, and Customizable—Plus Strong Privacy and Backup History **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 20, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** It's easily navigatable, a lot of list and organization for each tabs. I find it really modular, with each view expandable and customizable allowing for flexibility. Yet, the privacy element still prevail in maintaining each entries with a backup history option is an added bonus. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** The most annoying part of each modular is the scroll function, where it would be janky to say the least and would sometimes bugged out when clicked to fast. Additionally, I find it problematic when it doesn't saved the result, when you returned back to the main profile. As I would write something in the comment while going to result, then forget certain element that would caused me to go back and forth, but then I would forget which result I was giving in the first place. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps connect us, an organization with our client, which was a very important aspect of our mission. Allowing a seamless connection and record telling of each interaction, while maintaining the privacy is crucial to what we are doing. So, in turn I would say it greatly benefiting the organization in a procedural and organized method to reach our client. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi there - thanks for your review! We are so glad to hear that that you are finding Vanillasoft to be easy to navigate and flexible. We would love to understand more about the saved results and capturing notes and/or comments. If you have not spoken to our support team already, they would love to hear from you to understand what is going on. ### 9. VanillaSoft: Easy to Use and Simple to Navigate **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** VanillaSoft is an easy to use and navigate platform. Love the built in email and text options. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** The least helpful feature is that it only allows to track the last 5 calls for each lead. A full history feature for each lead (Actual call history to each individual lead would be valuable...also keeping the comment history as well) **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** This all-in-one CRM platform, with both texting and email capabilities, has helped us keep our costs in check. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Thanks for taking the time to write us a review, I appreciate it! I am so glad to hear that you are finding us easy to use and navigate. ### 10. Intuitive for Callers, but Recent Outages and VOIP Issues Hurt Reliability **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** On the caller side, it is extremely user friendly! I would describe the interface as intuitive and easy to navigate. On the admin side, I would say the admin page is mostly navigable. Sometimes, I will need to hover over some menus to remember where something is. Uploading contacts is easy. VanillaSoft is usually fast on the caller side, though recently there have been outages and issues with connecting VOIPs and using the giving page. Support has historically been responsive and helpful, but recently they seem to be overloaded with requests. I do not use any AI features with VanillaSoft. I do wish there was a feature that let me change all my callers' calling assignment at once. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** Lots of outages recently. There have been shifts where we have to send callers home with full pay because VS was not working properly. We have been experiencing VOIP connectivity issues, as well. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** We no longer have to call directly from Google Sheets, and that’s the biggest benefit for us. It cuts down on user error by clearly laying out the information callers need and offering quick, easy ways to move from one contact to the next. Overall, I’d say it’s worth the price. We use VS Connect with VanillaSoft, and that setup works well for our team. We don’t use any other integrations at this time. I’m also not familiar with any artificial intelligence features within VS. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi there - yes, the outages that we worked through this spring were frustrating to say the least. The view I have from the marketing side here is that those issues are by and large fixed and that there are just a few customers left that we are migrating to our new, more stable platform. I am really glad to hear that you are finding the caller side useful and user-friendly! That said, I know that there are updates on the way for our caller screen UX (and I think Admin side too) - our product marketing team sends invitations out to our admins in advance of releases for previews, so do watch your inbox! ### 11. Powerful Result Codes with Easy Customization **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Fund-Raising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** The most helpful feature that Vanillasoft offers are the result codes. There are so many outcomes, and finding a general code can be annoying but they make customization easy and efficient. Using it in combination with VS Connect as the calling platform is straightforward as well. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** I wish there was a playable walkthrough of the website rather than the online video training. And I wish it would glitch less in the middle of my calls. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vanillasoft is a great platform to hold a wide variety of information— phone numbers, addresses, past donations, alumni years, where they want the donations to go...It's great to not need a million spreadsheets to hold all this connecting data. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > hello Fundraiser! thanks for taking a moment to write us a review, I appreciate it! Thank you SO much for talking about result codes - they seem like a little thing at first, but yes, they ARE awesome! The go so far into reporting, and scoring leads again after you result them. Huge. Thanks again! ### 12. Great Workflow, Needs Better Call Quality **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christian A. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I like having my leads route directly to VanillaSoft. I work faster with a good workflow that doesn't require too much in between work. I am dialing the people I need to without too much thinking. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** The call quality with the VanillaSoft dialer is constantly choppy for me and the people I call, which makes it hard for effective callbacks. Also, I'm not sure if it is using random numbers or the same number when dialing people. Additionally, the initial setup was not as easy as I would like. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** VanillaSoft helps with organization and speeds up my workflow by routing leads directly, allowing me to dial people efficiently without much thought. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Christian - my goodness, you hit the nail on the head for what we are trying to help with - I am so glad to hear that its working well for you! Saving time on admin work so you can spend more time dialing and talking to your contacts is exactly it. That's unfortunate about call quality though. I know we had some VoIP issues earlier this spring, that were resolved with a new platform migration - but the call quality seems like something else. Since its VoIP, it could be your IP connection too - check our status page that should tell you about the Vanillasoft plaform, or by all means give our support team a call if your quality is off! ### 13. Effortless Calls, Seamless Lead Connection **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Seth R. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I like how easy VanillaSoft is to use, making it simple to quickly maneuver through prompts.

It is so easy to use. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Nichol - thanks for your review - I'm so pleased that you love the Vanillasoft ease of use and the efficiency that you get! ### 15. Saves Time on Personal Outreach with Simple Cadences and Helpful Scripts **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Philanthropy | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026 **What do you like best about Vanillasoft?** I like that it saves me time with personal outreach. I'm able to quickly move through a list of prospects and follow a simple cadence, rather than second-guess as I had done in the past. The ability to have scripts also helps me speed up my work, but remain accurate as well. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** I have found projects to be confusing. It seems that if one button is not clicked, it throws the entire project off. I wish items were more connected to one another without the details. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** It solves the speed and cadence structure for prospect outreach. This has kept me more organized and on top of my work better. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi there - thanks for taking the time to write a review! I love it, hearing that cadences are helping you move through prospects quickly and easily - amazing! Interesting feedback on the projects that you shared - I don't have a direct way to put you in front of our product team from here, but our support team helps capture feedback like that for the product team and development roadmap. Do give them a shout when you get a second if you can and share that - I will too but they always listen to customers more than they they listen to the marketing team! :) Could be that your org is talking to your customer success manager (Fi or Em maybe?) be sure to let them know! ### 16.

The dispositioning and search features make my work smoother by allowing me to plug in numbers and handle leads effectively. It's super easy to set up too, and I didn't have to worry about getting it up and running myself. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** It takes a little while to load into VanillaSoft sometimes, and sometimes the servers crash, but I don't know what that's for. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use VanillaSoft to contact leads, making it easier to call from contact to contact and disposition leads properly, filtering out leads with dispositions. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Justin - thanks for the review!

The auto-dialing and queue-based system remove the guesswork from who to call next, which helps maximize productivity and maintain momentum throughout the day. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** The interface can feel dated, and customization options are limited compared to more modern CRMs. It’s very call-focused, so it’s not ideal for managing long-term client relationships or tracking detailed policy information. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vanillasoft solves the problem of call reluctance and inefficient dialing by keeping calls organized and continuous. This leads to higher call volume, better consistency, and improved reach rates, which directly supports lead contact and appointment setting. **Official Response from James Bishop:** > Hi Schantera - thank you so much for your review!

Its user-friendly nature is a major appeal, reflected in my recommendation score of 9.5 out of 10. **What do you dislike about Vanillasoft?** I would like the ability to see more detailed change logs in VanillaSoft.

Having access to this information would greatly assist my work, as it would provide clarity and accountability regarding modifications within the system. **What problems is Vanillasoft solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use VanillaSoft to ensure my callbacks are timely aligned and notified, simplifying CRM and calendar tasks while preventing the need for manual reminders. ### 24.
