TESTIMONIALS
Part of Aktive's charitable role is to run a shared services function for sport and recreation organisations in New Zealand to reduce their back office costs. Approval Donkey has helped play a role in this both for Aktive and the organisations it supports. By using the Approval Donkey integration with Xero, Aktive has seen a time saving of around an hour per week for each member of its 28 staff, as well as now having a more robust invoice approval process.
IAN JAGGER / CORPORATE SERVICE MANAGER / AKTIVE
Approval Donkey is an important part of our workflow, saves us a ton of time and works so much better than what we would have come up with ourselves.
DR JOHN HOLBROOK / FRESH CLINICS
We use approval donkey on a regular basis to successfully manage approvals for trips and events in our school. When a request is submitted through a Cognito form to the relevant person, approval donkey lets our workflow in Zapier proceed once the event has been approved. The Zapier workflow takes the request information and stores it in a row in google sheets as well as sending the information forward to approval donkey. The request lands in the inbox of the decision maker and each decision gets reported back to the person who originally submits the request, so everyone is kept in the loop all the time. The Zapier work flow then activates once the approval donkey request is approved and embeds the event data onto a calendar. It has saved us a lot of work and allows us to automate the process easily. Approval donkey is the key link in the process that allows it to work so well.
