“disturbing payment deletion issues”
Pros
Setting up the silent auction was simple and bidders had no trouble using it which is really the most important part when you are trying to raise funds. Everyone was able to register successfully and place bids without issues. The outbid notifications also function reliably.
Cons
Once the auction ends there is no practical way for a registered bidder who did not win anything to remove their payment details such as credit card information so it cannot be misused. Support claims this can be done but the online knowledge base does not match what actually appears on the screen. Other than that the deletion process does not work if the person previously placed a bid even when that bid was not binding because it was not the final one. Another serious problem is that after one auction ends users are randomly shown other online auctions. Even worse there are messages saying bids were placed on a user's behalf which is extremely unsettling. According to the helpdesk this is a bug.

“promising fit for fundraising”
Pros
When COVID pushed us to move our fundraising auction online we needed a platform that could handle it without locking us into expensive contracts or high fees. This one appears very simple to use and feels like a really solid match for our organization. We're planning to roll it out fully in about a month.
Cons
At this stage we haven't run into any issues. During testing nothing has come up that caused inconvenience or raised any concerns.
