Scholarship Manager from Next Gen Web Solutions vs. PinPoint Document Management Software (DMS)

While the tools given and access to data is simple, the overall functionality of the tool is lacking some basic features. Scholarship Manager from Next Gen Web Solutions provides a place to add users for share donor engagement and scholarship review process. However, having more editing, print, and save functions are handy. An annoying feature is when reviewing scholarships, you have to scroll and scour full lists of recipients to completely confirm them for a scholarship. We found this a chore when sharing review duties broken down to cover specific alphabetic quadrants.

Pinpoint is great if you have a lot of documents that need to be organized in a specific way. It works really well for our organization which has to go through an annual audit. Anything the auditors might need can be easily found and emailed to them with only a few clicks of the mouse rather than digging through file cabinets and storage boxes

It does take some time to learn about all of the features and systems within Pinpoint. It is also slightly difficult to set up, however, we have invested a lot of time into making it work for our organization and we don't regret that investment at all. The Pinpoint staff has always been very helpful and accommodating to anything we need.
