Customer service is as well, though with a few bad eggs. It doesn't stop from using it again and again, though. > > **Cons**: Customer service. Not every worker is rude, but there are a few bad eggs that will be extremely rude and unhelpful. > > It was a positive one. As I said, their very helpful if you have trouble with anything on the platform, and it's a great way to help people. ----- ### "Best in class" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 July 2021* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: All the features you need to set up your fundraising website, ask for and manage donations, and access your donations for your mission are seamlessly integrated. > > **Cons**: There were a few "donors" who were not donors but trying to reach the person who was in need for social reasons. > > GoFundMe is best in class in simple fundraising. ----- ### "GoFundMe not trustworthy" — 1.0/5 > **Laura** | *6 February 2022* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used to like GoFundMe and regularly donated, but no more. > > **Cons**: GoFundMe said the Freedom Convoy was violent and a threat and GoFundMe said they would keep over $10 million in donations and distribute the money to charities of their choosing. This is so wrong\! Then due to public outcry, GoFundMe said they will return all donations. Too late, they are no longer trustworthy especially since GoFundMe allowed violent groups to collect donations through GoFundMe, groups that last summer rioted, burnt cars and buildings, looted and ransacked businesses, beat people up, etc. Not acceptable behavior for a business, to support such activities and such groups\! > > I feel betrayed. I will never donate on GoFundMe ever again\! ----- ### "Great for individual and team fundraising campaigns" — 4.0/5 > **Rachael** | *5 November 2019* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: We liked to use crowdrise for individual fundraising campaigns centered around 1 specific goal or event. Our fundraisers used it for raising money as they did a race, for a specific program, or for raising money to go on an international missions trip. It's great for college students to create peer to peer campaigns for example. > > **Cons**: I did not like how this integrated with our website (or rather the lack thereof). > > At the end of the day, we decided to switch to Classy as it was a more integrated fundraising platform. Crowdrise didn't have enough general donation processing/management tools that we wanted in a fundraising platform. ----- ### "FUNdraising" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *1 August 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our nonprofit uses CrowdRise for our largest fundraiser in the winter. Our supporters get to be involved in our fundraising and have their own space to do it. The tools that CrowdRise offers are easy to use and assist in soliciting donations from family and friends. > > **Cons**: The CrowdRise layout seems to be constantly updating and changing, which is a good thing, but some users often get confused and have to reach out for help. Luckily, their customer support is amazing. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/113953/crowdrise?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/113953/crowdrise) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
