About SchoolAuction.net
SchoolAuction.net is a cloud-based fundraising event management solution which allows nonprofit organizations to host and manage a range of auction types. The software supports live, silent, and online auctions, and is suitable for use by schools, clubs, churches, and other charitable organizations and nonprofit groups.
With SchoolAuction.net, nonprofit organizations can manage their event from anywhere, on any device, using the responsive, web-based system. Donor and item information can be recorded and tracked, and data can be imported from existing systems or spreadsheets. Item details can be entered in a single form, and users can choose to combine multiple items into lots or sell them individually. The flexible category system enables classification of items, and users can track which items are placed in live, silent, and raffle sections. Print materials, including catalogs, bid sheets, recording sheets, and gift certificates, can also be generated for each event.
SchoolAuction.net offers integrated online registration forms which can be linked to on organization websites, allowing users to register and buy event tickets online. Multiple ticket types can be created at different price points, and table sponsorships can also be offered. Attendee information is automatically recorded in the auction database, and guests can save their credit card details to use at the auction. Guests can be sent a link to check themselves in before the auction, and traditional in-person check-in can also be offered. At the end of the auction, guests can check out using their smartphone or through a physical check-out desk, or pay using their stored credit card details without having to check-out.

Pros
We appreciate that SchoolAuction.net is forever improving itself. Supprt truly listens to feedback and then goes about making changes. We appreciate the easiness of the software to use for our Spring Gala and auction needs. We were especially pleased with showing off the catalog last year. Once our pics and descriptions were in and we published it to our families, we were really proud of how the catalog looked. It was very professional and gave our families a huge preview of what was to come at the event.

I'm entering into my seventh year using SchoolAuction.net, and I continue to recommend it to others.
Pros
It's incredibly easy to train volunteers, capture all of the info that I want from users and guests, and process guests quickly on event night.
Cons
It's often slow on weekday afternoons, hard in the weeks leading up to events.
It's a bit of a long and clunky URL.

Hi Amelia,
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. We've made a lot of upgrades to our Virtual Live Auction feature in the last year, so we hope you'll give us another chance with your next event. Feel free to email me at [email protected] if you'd like a demo of how the Virtual feature works now, or want to learn about other new features we've added to our software, like Text-to-Give or Fundraising Campaigns. We absolutely want to help your organization's events and fundraisers be as successful as possible.

The software makes it possible to get every fundraising dollar and clearly organize guests for the event.
Pros
Excellent help features on every page. Easy to contact support team if needs arise. I also appreciate the helpful bidding sheets that print directly from the software.
Cons
The software requires the administrator to process credit cards individually after the auction has closed, which takes quite a lot of time.

We solved our school auction with this software, I loved it because we mostly use volunteers to staff the event and it was very easy to have people with no previous experience with the software use it that evening with ease.
Pros
School Auction is a great platform! We started using it for our annual auction and it was a game-changer for our school. It's super easy to use and set up.
Cons
I feel like the website that you can create for your event could be a little more robust. You can change the colors but the layout options are limited.
