## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-14 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's how I'd rank them, roughly by who they fit best:
> 
> **1. Better Impact (Volunteer Impact)** - My default recommendation for most nonprofits with a real, ongoing volunteer program. It's priced by number of *administrators* rather than number of volunteers, which means your costs don't balloon as the program grows. Strong on custom application forms, qualification/background-check tracking, scheduling, and hour reporting. Starts small with a Foundation plan and scales to unlimited admins.
> 
> **2. Volgistics** - The best value if you're budget-conscious and want to size your own plan. Pricing starts around $17/month for 50 tracked volunteers, and their public calculator lets you work out the cost before talking to anyone. The interface is dated, but it's deep, reliable, and has been around forever. Good for hospitals, shelters, and museums with high volunteer turnover.
> 
> **3. Galaxy Digital (Get Connected)** - Pick this if you need a *public-facing volunteer portal* - a branded page where community members browse and self-sign-up for opportunities. Also handles onsite kiosk check-in, digital waivers, and hour verification. Commonly used by volunteer centers and United Ways that coor
