TESTIMONIALS

Hear from our Clients

  • "We used OneCause for years but have switched to BetterUnite for our past 2 galas. Our auctioneer suggested that we make the move and we’ve never looked back. BetterUnite is easier to use and so much less expensive – we also are not stuck in a contract for several years."

  • "We are so happy to have used BetterUnite for our gala. Their all-inclusive platform allowed for seamless registration, live stream viewing, and auction bidding, all while amplifying our fundraising goal and organization mission."

  • “We encourage all of our clients from Greater Giving or GiveSmart to BetterUnite. There is really no comparison. From an event organizer standpoint, BetterUnite has better tech, is far easier to use and, most importantly, the guests love it. It’s like having technology that makes the event great that the guests don’t even realize that they’re interacting with.”

  • "BetterUnite is a great solution for our clients' fundraising events. Their team consists of experts in the field who are passionate about doing what's right for charities. We feel confident recommending BetterUnite to our charity partners and it's always a pleasure to share fundraising success with Leya and her team!"

  • "The BetterUnite platform helped us manage guest information and details, including table assignments, guest purchases, donations and payments as well as pre- and post-event communication The BetterUnite is always responsive, helpful and a pleasure to work with."

"BetterUnite was an integral part of our fundraising event experience. It was the nexus point through which we did everything from sell tickets, arrange the seating map, to finalize payments for both our silent and live auctions."
