Mobilize reviews

Mobilize allows us to publish all of the event work we are doing in certain geographies to a wide network of individuals as well as to notify our existing subscriber base.

Setting up events is easy to do, however, there is not an option to save an event in the draft stage prior to launching the event. The closest available option is to set the event to private and publish it prior to launching the event to the wider public.

-I love that it's so easy for people to add their organizing events!
- Adding your own branding is great
- Lots of different organizing events on it

- Needs a better way to search through events
- Filtering can improve

Ease of setup, quickly share and promote your events. Along with the ability to confirm and follow up with all the contact info is invaluable for a campaign.

The cost can be a bit high for smaller organizations, however I think if used well it is worth every penny

The reminders are extremely helpful. Thank you!!

I have nothing negative to add about my experience with Mobilize.

Mobilize helps my team and I be on the same page in our work environment, which needs to respond to changes in our local sphere multiple times a day. The team helping us migrate our existing workflow from Slack was also extremely helpful and the service they provided was top-notch.

Probably the fact that it is paid, considering there are some alternatives out there that are cheaper or free of charge. However, with the features that Mobilize provides, it was a no-brainer for us to invest in it, and our productivity has increased tenfold.

Ease of use. Multiple departments can easily use this tool to accomplish their goals.

Search functionality on the backend. Ability to search promoted organizations by not promoted, state, and type would be super helpful. Ability to add fundraising events via actblue api -- or even mobilize ticketed fundraising events system.

I personally have used Mobilize America across various professional roles but my favorite thing about the tool is the ease of use! It makes people use it with confidence given how user friendly and adaptable it is. The software is also supported by such a strong team of customer support -- the client success team goes our of their way to make their clients feel comfortable and heard and it's really refreshing!

No major cons come to mind here -- whenever I discover something that could be improved, I open a dialogue with the team at Mobilize and they are very conducive to hearing the issue and working with me on a way through it.

Mobilize is an incredibly intuitive, easy-to-use platform whose ease-of-use empowers literally thousands more volunteers to take action across the country. They are always adding new features without cluttering the user interface. And that's why our organization, Field Team 6, has been able to spread across the country, registering 18,000 progressive voters in 9 battleground states so far.

The cost was prohibitive at first for a grassroots startup–so we spoke to the Mobilize team, and they were able to immediately lower it enough to make it accessible!

All of the recruitment features - promotions, bring-a-friend, sign up for more shifts, SMS follow up. Mobilize events are so easy to set up and do most of the work for you. You end up doing less work but get more attendance at your event.

There is really only one thing that bugs me. When I am filtering for a particular kind of event I have to do extra steps to figure out if I should search with "type" or "tag" or both. For example, if I want to filter just phone banks, but the campaign we are promoting didn't list the event's "type" as a phone bank but DID "tag" it as a phone bank - it is frustrating to figure out if I should filter by type or tags when other campaigns might list the type but not tag it. So I just have to do extra work to figure out how to filter the events - this happened to be as a user, too, before I was an admin on a campaign in Mobilize and figured out how to make it work! Otherwise, Mobilize is really easy to use.

The team at Mobilize America makes everything from purchase to shut as smooth as humanly possible. They help train users, troubleshoot any issues and show results in a digestible way.

Nothing about this product was bad or difficult in any way.

I like that it makes it easy for people to see what events are near them

It can be a little difficult to understand for people just getting familiar with it

It is very easy to add and delete events.

I wish I could have more control over the emails and text messages that are sent out to remind people about events.

How easy the software is to use and we love the integration to our events website.

The onboarding process for county parties. The lack of social meta data flexibility.

Ease of use, customer support, VAN sync!

Doesn't have a filtering option to restrict to members only
