Scholarship Manager from Next Gen Web Solutions vs. StorySlab

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.

I would recommend the app to another colleague if they were only going to manage 1-2 brands or channels. I believe in typical Eastman fashion, we had one idea of how we were going to use StorySlab and now a few years later our vision has changed. Items are starting to get cluttered.
