“Before we had InitLive, our volunteers had to indicate when they might be available, and in order to assign them to their activities, we had to communicate back and forth. When InitLive was brought to our attention, there was such an improvement in assigning shifts to our volunteers,” commented Bob.

“I think by far the top value that using InitLive has provided our office is the immense savings in our staff time for scheduling and communicating with volunteers. It also helps ensure that our events run smoothly and, with the COVID 19 pandemic, safely as well. ”

“InitLive has really helped us, not only in scheduling our volunteers but also engaging with them. It's given us more free time to engage our volunteers and not having to worry about contacting them regarding their schedules as that took the most amount of time.”

“I would definitely recommend using InitLive. We pulled all our members from Salesforce and pushed them into InitLive to convert members into volunteers. Volunteers have the ability to sign up for shifts, check-in and out, and send messages. I have used a number of systems, and I really really enjoy using InitLive,” explained Heather Williams.

"InitLive helped me stay organized. It allowed me to see where I had gaps in my schedule and helped me group shifts together for check-in times. It allowed my volunteer coordinators to come in, review the schedule, and easily see what they need to manage, which was nice."

“It has made an absolutely massive difference in logistically managing & coordinating all our volunteers as the week goes for 8 days over 2 weeks...we're going to continue using the system next year, keep growing our event, and keep helping women's hockey get bigger and better.”

“This year, we decided to try something new: the InitLive Volunteer Management Software. I must say, this software greatly reduced the workload on the volunteer managers...[InitLive] made the process very much more streamlined than in the past - reduced the amount of labor considerably. So, all in all we had a great experience. InitLive really came through and really assisted in making this conference a tremendous success.”
