Reporting is pretty good which allows for deep analysis. > > **Cons**: We were never able to improve the process to sell tickets with assigned seats for our 8th grade musical. > > Overall, we have enjoyed a good relationship with OneCause. Customer service has been very good most of the time. ----- ### "Best in the Business Event Fundraising Software" — 5.0/5 > **Emily** | *14 November 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: OneCause works perfectly for my large scale nonprofit events. While some other softwares tout themselves as being "free", I find that OneCause is worth the investment as it provides a seamless experience for guests and comprehensive event management for me. We have been very happy with all elements of a live fundraising event - auction, paddle raise, check-in and check out, raffles, and more\! Their customer support is outstanding and they are committed to continued growth as they are constantly evolving the product with updates. > > **Cons**: Unfortunately it doesn't integrate into our CRM directly (Blackbaud/Raiser's Edge) but using Omatic is not a problem. > > I have been using the Fundraising platform for 3 years. I am so impressed how they have grown it and committed to continuous improvement. Every single event, something has been added, enhanced, and upgraded. I have increased my fundraising through events by 47% in 3 years since switching to OneCause. ----- ### "9 Month Review" — 4.0/5 > **Destiny** | *19 March 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that we have used it for years, so it houses a lot of our previous information. It makes it easy to switch back back-and-forth to compare. > > **Cons**: I think the overall user experience is a little more complicated than it needs to be. I think there’s ways they could streamline the website. ----- ### "Really Solid Performance" — 4.0/5 > **Ashley** | *1 December 2025* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the interface of the app. It's clean and gives an upscale appearance to our fundraising event. The bidding process was nice and simple, and it is not overly expensive compared to other software. Everything is straightforward, secure to my knowledge, and ready to go. > > **Cons**: I know my coworkers who have worked with it longer do not like the recent updates to the software, so we are looking to switch in 2026. Part of the reason is we wanted something that integrated with our donor management software which, unfortunately, OneCause does not at this time. > > It's relatively easy to set up and work with. It's easy for our donors to use without an issue, and we don't really need customer support ever because of that. ----- ### "Best fundraising software\!" — 5.0/5 > **Julie** | *10 November 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The OneCause platform makes event management a breeze. The system is easy to navigate, the built in check lists to help your manage your event or fundraisers, and the reporting post event was fantastic. This system is a great value for money\! > > **Cons**: I have not had any negative to say. This software made event planning fun again\! I was nervous about transitioning to a new software, but they delivered on everything from easy donor management all the way to easy guest experience at the event. > > I have been impressed with OneCasue since our first interaction. The staff are friendly, the system operates easily, customer service has been efficient, helpful and kind when I have needed help, and OneCause University is fantastic. ----- Page: 1 / 16\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/17876/bidpal?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/17876/bidpal) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
