[MCN-L] Volunteer Management Software

2016-07-25 Thread Elizabeth Bollwerk
Hello, MCN-ers,

MCN's Professional Development committee is looking into volunteer
management software options and would like to hear what programs
organizations are using and their experiences with those programs (good and
bad).  We are particularly interested in programs that with open APIs that
handle volunteer applications and recruitment, scheduling, managing
records, and collecting feedback.

We'd especially love to hear from anyone who is using or has used Volunteer
Matters.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Best,
Beth
