Better Impact (MyVolunteerPage)** - My default recommendation for most mid-size and larger nonprofits. Deep volunteer profiles, skills/availability matching, background-check and qualification tracking, and strong reporting. It acquired Galaxy Digital (Get Connected) in March 2026, so it's now the biggest purpose-built volunteer platform - ~85,000 organizations - and is the top-rated one on G2 for 2026. Existing Get Connected customers weren't forced to migrate. ([betterimpact.com](https://www.betterimpact.com/better-together), [nonprofitpro.com](https://www.nonprofitpro.com/article/better-impact-acquires-galaxy-digital-to-expand-its-volunteer-tech/))\n\n**2. POINT** - The one I'd name first if budget is the constraint. Genuinely usable free tier, good mobile app for volunteers, used by 6,500+ orgs. Best starting point for a small org with no software line item. ([pointapp.org](https://pointapp.org/))\n\n**3. Volgistics** - The value pick for lean budgets that still need real depth. Pricing starts around $9/month and scales with the number of volunteers you're actively tracking, which is unusually fair.
