A Free Google Forms Alternative for Volunteer Signups

Let volunteers choose open shifts or use Proximatic to schedule the people you already have. See who is doing each job and record attendance in the same event.

Create your event signup

Your form has responses. Now someone has to turn them into an event: decide who works each job, stop a popular shift from overfilling, and find another person when a volunteer cancels. That is where a simple signup form can become a lot of coordination.

Proximatic lets the signup do more of that work. Give the event its jobs, hours and places, then choose the approach that fits your crew.

Let people choose a real place

When the work is already set, share the event’s open shifts. A volunteer chooses a place and goes onto that shift’s roster. Capacity keeps the signup tied to the number of people needed; the next volunteer can see the remaining choices. You don’t have to turn a column of preferred times into a separate assignment list.

For open public shifts, people can sign up with a name and email without creating an account. It’s a direct commitment to the work they chose.

Let Proximatic build the roster

An established crew may need you to fit jobs around their availability and approved roles. Auto-Schedule uses those inputs to fill the event’s shifts, giving you a roster and open places to review. AI-assisted creation can also turn your event description into the jobs and shifts that roster needs.

Both approaches lead into the same event. If someone cancels an upcoming shift, Find cover helps you find an available person for that opening. Attendance and recorded hours stay with the assignments, so the schedule you built can carry through the day.

Core signup, scheduling and attendance tools are free. Create your event signup for open shifts, or build a roster for your team. See Google Forms and Proximatic or the SignUpGenius comparison for the broader decision.
