InitLive Transforms The Volunteer Management Landscape With Their Largest Feature Release to Date

(09/18/2019) InitLive announces it’s largest feature release to date, unveiling dozens of powerful new features offering an even more efficient way to schedule and manage volunteers and event staff. 

Innovation and quality are at the core of InitLive, and with this latest release, InitLive pushes the field of event scheduling and volunteer programming further than it ever has before. The all-new scheduling update allows event managers to schedule staff and volunteers with ease and efficiency. The new calendar user-interface makes scheduling as simple as a drag and drop! Color coding, quick search, filtering, and bulk editing are only a few of the new features that make scheduling a simpler task.

“Our goal at InitLive is to offer event managers and volunteer coordinators the best end to end staff and volunteer management solution possible and with this release, we are proud to live up to that goal”, commented Chris Courneya CEO of InitLive. 

The highest impact feature of this release offers best match rostering. The innovative Roster Mode automatically recommends a list of the best match staff and volunteers based on shift requirements including role, availability, and their qualifications. Roster Mode makes it easier to select the best staff for the job without the headache-inducing logic conflicts.

“When designing InitLive’s Interface our goal was to offer the end-user the flexibility to customize their views to be as simple or as robust as required for their needs,” commented Melissa Pinard Co-Founder of InitLive. 

InitLive’s customizable interfaces focuses on the users' needs. Event managers can now toggle between weekly view, daily view, or even an hourly view on the schedule calendar making it simple for the shift supervisors to see the small and big picture.

These new features raise the bar for what is possible in volunteer and event staff scheduling.This release is a part of larger strategy to continue to bring innovative solutions to the non-profit sector and event management space.
