## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-21 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest looking at them. The right pick depends mostly on size and whether you need volunteer data tied to donor data.
> 
> **1. Better Impact (Volunteer Impact)** - My default recommendation for any org with a real volunteer program (say 100+ active volunteers). Best-in-class volunteer profiles, skills/availability matching, qualification tracking, and background-check workflows. It acquired Galaxy Digital (Get Connected) in March 2026, so it's now the biggest player - worth noting for roadmap/support stability, though Get Connected continues as its own product.
> 
> **2. POINT** - Where I'd start if you're small or budget-constrained. Free forever for verified US 501(c)(3)s, unlimited volunteers and admins, with scheduling, hour tracking, check-in kiosks, and a consumer-facing app that actually helps you get discovered by new volunteers. Very little downside to trying it.
> 
> **3. VolunteerHub** - The strongest fit for mid-to-large nonprofits running high-volume, event-driven programs (food banks, large recurring shifts). Good self-service signup and CRM integrations, notably Blackbaud. Heavier setup than POINT.
> 
> **4. Volgistics**

Answer Watch records what one AI answer engine said on one date, nothing more. Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
