    From where I stand, GLM is well-suited for use by small-staffed charitable foundations who make more than thirty (30) grants a year and distribute more than $500,000 in funds to non-profits. The software is able to handle every step in the grant-making process from receipt of a request, to the evaluation and decision regarding the grant, to tracking the pay-out, and to closing the grant when the work or the year is completed.

    If any one wants to join as a volunteer in the Givepulse for good cause and spend their time to development of people lives, I think Givepulse is one of the beat platforms. Also any organisation can think of their CSR initiatives as they are doing very well in development of india through AID. Child education, sustainability, preserving of natural resources, womens empowerment, social justice are many topics on which they are working

    Pros
    Foundant Technologies
    • Foundant provides a streamlined grants management solution for reasonable cost.
    • The company listens to its users, collecting ideas and making improvements. Updates to the software are rolled out several times a year. When something cannot be changed right away, the company gives context and forecasts when the change might be possible.
    • While the software is easy to use, it also offers more advanced features (such as merge templates) that allow more customization for the advanced user.

    Cons
    Foundant Technologies
    • Need a smother process for third party responses. Currently individuals recommending more than one student for scholarships have many emails to deal with to find the correct link to upload the correct student's letter.
    • Questions that would filter which applications the applicant would apply for.

    I have not used other online grantmaking products or evaluated others. I used to use MicroEdge Gifts, but not the online application version. It was a stand alone management system. This is hands-down better, easier to use and a more complete system

    Givepulse is working in many areas where others are not working to develop the indias rural part like sustainability, plantations and preserving of natural resources. Also they brings the new technologies and knowledge to help the society in better ways. Their volunteers are knowledgeable and good cooperative for helping and supporting illiterate peoples

    Return on Investment
    Foundant Technologies
    • Positive customer service--fairly easy to use for applicants.
    • Positive--easy to run reports you have already set up, so [it] saves time.
    • Negative--limited question types makes it harder to gather the data we want to track.
    • Negative--our budget is more complex than can be tracked in Foundant, so we have to use a separate program.
    • Negative--we have to track potential grantee conversations in a separate program.
    • Negative--getting data ready to display in a dashboard takes a lot of time to manipulate in Excel.
