Laura,
I suggest looking into Better Impact. The system is intuitive (and easy for volunteers to learn), functional (reporting is easy), and affordable. I have used Better Impact for the last 13 years at both the Houston Zoo and now at Space Center Houston and I'm still a fan.

Subject: VMS recommendations besides Volgistics
Dear friends. I am expanding our volunteer and docent program and had planned to use Volgistics to manage information and schedules. However, our parent company (a college) will not sign off on using Volgistics because it did not pass HECVAT, an assessment tool used by higher education to assess security risk of vendors. What other VMS do you recommend? Though I am "expanding" the program, I will still have under 100 volunteers. But I am a one-person department so help with managing volunteers is essential. Thank you in advance!
