Overview

Vome brings application forms, onboarding sequences, shift scheduling, attendance, and volunteer messaging together across web and mobile. That breadth can reduce the need to coordinate volunteer work across separate tools. The unlimited-volunteer policy also suits organizations with large or growing rosters; the trade-off is that paid pricing scales with active administrators rather than volunteers.

Key features

Recruitment and onboarding

Application forms can include custom questions, file uploads, e-signatures, and embedded shift calendars. This lets organizations collect information and present shift options as part of recruitment. Onboarding sequences combine forms, fillable PDFs, signatures, training modules, checklists, and uploads, which is useful when intake involves repeatable steps rather than a simple contact list.

Scheduling and hour tracking

Vome supports one-time and recurring shifts, volunteer self-booking, group reservations, and calendar syncing with Google, Outlook, or Apple Calendar. Hour records can come from volunteer claims, QR-code check-in, attendance kiosks, or automatic logging based on scheduled shift times. That range gives organizations options for different attendance workflows, while teams with only occasional scheduling needs may not need such a broad system.

Mobile, integrations, and security

Volunteer apps are available for iOS and Android and are free to download for all users. Listed integrations include Salesforce, Zapier, Microsoft Power Automate, Sterling Volunteers, SCORM Cloud, Verified First, and Double the Donation. API integration and custom webhooks are included with Ultimate, making that plan the relevant option for organizations needing those capabilities.

Vome describes AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2 or higher in transit, and AWS hosting with high availability, redundancy, and continuous monitoring. It says it follows HIPAA, SOC 2, GDPR, PIPEDA, CCPA, and PCI DSS frameworks. Support includes a FAQ and knowledge base, email and technical support, with onboarding sessions depending on plan.

Pricing

Vome offers a free plan and a 30-day trial. Every plan includes unlimited volunteers, but the paid plans charge per active administrative seat, so the number of staff accounts matters more than roster size.

Plan	Price and terms	What it includes
Recruit	0.00 USD per free; billed Forever free	1 application form, 1 onboarding sequence, 35 default database fields, unlimited volunteers and admin seats
Pro	45.00 USD per month per admin seat; billed annually or monthly	Unlimited volunteers, forms, and sequences
Enterprise	65.00 USD per month per admin seat; billed annually; minimum 3 seats	Unlimited volunteers; minimum 3 admin seats
Ultimate	80.00 USD per month per admin seat; billed annually; minimum 5 seats	Unlimited volunteers; minimum 5 admin seats; API integration and custom webhooks

Recruit is a useful starting point for a small team that can work within one form and one sequence, and its unlimited admin seats avoid a staff-seat cap. Pro removes those form and sequence limits and offers monthly billing, but its per-seat charge means the total rises with active administrators. Enterprise and Ultimate require at least three and five seats respectively, so their effective minimum commitments are higher; Ultimate is the choice when API integration or custom webhooks are needed.

Platforms

Vome is available on web, Android, and iOS. Volunteer mobile apps are free to download, supporting organizations whose volunteers use phones to engage with the system.

Who it's for

Vome serves hospitals, membership associations, NGOs, community centres, food banks and shelters, municipalities, schools, universities, and businesses. It is a strong fit for organizations that need structured volunteer intake, recurring or group shifts, and multiple attendance-recording options. Teams with many administrators should weigh per-seat pricing, while those needing only a basic signup tool may find the free plan's single form and sequence restrictive.

Pros and cons

Pros: Unlimited volunteers across plans means roster growth does not itself trigger a volunteer-count charge.
Pros: Forms, onboarding sequences, scheduling, and several hour-tracking methods cover key stages of volunteer coordination.
Pros: Recruit includes unlimited admin seats at no cost, while Pro allows monthly billing.
Cons: Recruit is capped at one application form and one onboarding sequence, limiting organizations with multiple programs or intake paths.
Cons: Paid costs are per admin seat, and Enterprise and Ultimate impose three- and five-seat minimums.

Alternatives

For a different volunteer-management option, compare POINT, whose free plan includes unlimited volunteers and admins alongside signups, scheduling, event and group management, messaging, reminders, and time tracking. VolunteerMark may suit a smaller roster that fits its free tier of up to 50 volunteers and one administrator. Get Connected by Galaxy Digital uses custom pricing rather than pricing by volunteer count. Golden offers plans with unlimited volunteers, including a Basic tier capped at five admin users. Better Impact Volunteer Impact is a paid option with a Foundation plan that includes three administrators, basic profiles, a document library, online applications, and branded forms. Volgistics is a paid alternative with no free plan; its base service starts at 9.00 USD per month for 50 volunteer records, with optional modules and additional records or operators affecting the total. Volunteer Shift Manager has a free web plan capped at 50 volunteers and 30 upcoming shifts, with monthly email and SMS reminder limits. SignUp.com offers a free Basic plan with one primary organizer, one custom participant question, one group page, and email support.

Verdict

Vome is a strong choice for organizations that want volunteer recruitment, onboarding, scheduling, and hour tracking under one roof without a volunteer-count ceiling. Its central advantage is the range of workflows and attendance options; its main drawback is that paid costs rise with administrators, with additional seat minimums on the upper plans. Choose it when those integrated processes matter more than minimizing staff-seat costs.
