What do you like best about POINT?

POINT not only balances the needs of a non profit to be able to reach out to the volunteering community but also provides volunteers with a best in class user experience through their web and mobile channels. Onboarding new volunteers is super quick and we find volunteers engaging and participating in events in no time. A volunteer myself POINT is one of the most frequent app on my phone. As an admin creating new community service events , setting up an event , approving hours etc , all super intuitive and efficient. The customer service we receive from the support team is responsive and always resolves any request we have in an expedited manner.

For our organization which is a 100% volunteer run, POINT is critical in achieiving our mission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about POINT?

It is forward thinking, well designed, easy to use and has all the 21st century Web 3.0 and App based features you want in a modern Volunteer Management System. It was incredibly easy to set up. Integrates perfectly with our website and offered a plethora of features on the free plan, making it easy for smaller organizations to try. The few times I've had to contact customer service they have responded quickly and thoroughly and the online customer self-service support is excellent and well written. I use Point daily and it has become an essential tool for our Volunteer Management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about POINT?

Honestly, I haven't found any features I don't like yet. It is leages better than anything else I've seen. It is a new generation of product and handily solves a lot of the challenges of the older systems I've encountered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is POINT solving and how is that benefiting you?

Listing opportunities easily on our website. Recruiting and communicating with Volunteers. Hosting private opportunities for Volunteers and groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about POINT?

Our organization loves Point! It is easy to use, helps us to recruit volunteers, and seamlessly track their contributions. Many of the features are intuitive and I have been able to train myself just by looking around a little bit. The best part about it might actually be the customer support. Jeni is available to help anytime we have a question! Thank you for providing us with this amazing resource! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about POINT?

When Point made updates recently, our administrators were inundated with notifications about programs they are not a part of within the umbrella of our organization. This would be solved if administrators could only be a part of specific programs instead of the entire organization. Maybe this function already exists and I just don't know about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is POINT solving and how is that benefiting you?

Point is making it easy to track volunteer data. This is crucial to our organization. We need the data to receive funds to continue fulfilling our mission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about POINT?

Where do I begin? We moved over to POINT from SignUpGenius, and the improvement in our processes has been HUGE. It used to take me so long to make a single volunteer signup through our old system, so I ended up dreading the process of recruiting volunteers. We need volunteers in order for our nonprofit to function, so I researched different platforms and kept seeing that POINT came highly recommended. I started with a free trial, loved what I was seeing, and quickly committed to a paid plan. We are so glad we switched over! It's made the volunteer management process fun again. The features are easy to use, and the customer support has been phenomenal. Jeni Rosales has been so helpful in getting us started. She's patient, responsive, and a true joy to interact with. We appreciate everything POINT has to offer, from the product itself to the people behind the scenes. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about POINT?

The only thing I wish POINT had was the ability to sign up for multiple recurring event dates at once, but I hear that's a soon-to-be feature! Our volunteers would love having the ability to do that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is POINT solving and how is that benefiting you?

POINT does all of the following for us:

- Reduces the time it takes for us to create an event signup

- Improves our volunteer management process since all data (hours, contact info, etc.) lives in one place

- Makes it enjoyable to spend time managing volunteers because the UX/UI design are phenomenal

- Frees me up to work on the other aspects of my job that don't involve managing volunteers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to set up, get going, and easily track our volunteers. Our staff have been able to get the system set up quickly and move our volunteer program to the system with ease. We also love the integrations, especially with Give Butter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about POINT?

Our older volunteers have difficulty getting into the system, and it takes time to learn for volunteers who have never used a VMS before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is POINT solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have moved from a manual process that takes a lot of staff time to an automated process, the goal is to reduce time spent on tasks that can be automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about POINT?

POINT keeps me on track! I can make very atractive detailed posts for my volunteers to peruse. I love the reminders to check-in my volunteers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about POINT?

Sometimes the online Cht has been unavailable - but once you are up and running, I seldom have cause to call on them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is POINT solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping track of all the events we have. Volunteers are able to sign-up themselves and receive reminders, saving me precious time. I am able to create monthly rosters very easily, giving my program team an accurate record of who is coming in to volunteer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
