Considered Both Products	Responsive Verified User Executive Chose Responsive Responsive has better UI and pricing Helpful? Rick Harris Principal Chose Responsive I was not involved in the process of selecting RFP360 for our firm, so I am largely unfamiliar with competitors. I am, however, quite pleased with RFP360 as a user, and am confident that my colleagues who were responsible for making the decision were thorough and discerning. Incentivized Helpful? Brian Zielinski, MBA Sr Proposal Manager Chose Responsive RFPIO has outstanding, responsive, helpful customer support located in the US in Oregon. Support techs go the extra mile to help with basic issues and functionality training. Same-day support response and problem resolution are the norms. The system is also very user-friendly … Incentivized Helpful? Anne-Stuart Huffman Manager, Presales Enablement Chose Responsive RFPIO's licensing model is a bit different from others which worked better for our organization. Rather than licensing by a number of users, it's licensed by the active project. This allows us to add multiple users that are responsible for reviewing and updating content without … Incentivized Helpful? LC Lori Coffae Director: Proposal Writing Chose Responsive Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to use or evaluate other products like RFPIO. When I was hired, my company had just purchased our RFPIO software. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Contributor Chose Responsive I greatly prefer RFPIO over Loopio. It's a much cleaner interface and the searchable library is amazing. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Representative Chose Responsive I've only used RFPIO to compile responses to RFPs, and I've only used Scout RFP to respond to RFPs issued within Scout (i.e., the customer sent us an RFP without Scout RFP and asked the response and all communication to go through Scout RFP). As such, I've used two tools, but … Incentivized Helpful? Lauren Daitz, CF APMP Senior Manager, Proposal Department Chose Responsive We are a small proposal team, with a large group of resources who support our responses. RFPIO is easy to use for internal and external users, doesn't require extensive onboarding for new users, and is constantly adding new capabilities and enhancements to make the product even … Incentivized Helpful? SB Steve Beus Proposal Manager Chose Responsive Similar feature sets. No in-depth comparisons yet. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Professional Chose Responsive Qvidian, as I remember it, was clunky and difficult to use. Not user friendly at all. Incentivized Helpful? JS Jeffrey Serra Customer Success Manager Chose Responsive N/A Incentivized Helpful? RF Randi Feldman Proposal/Security Specialist Chose Responsive I have not seen another tool in the market that is collaborative or intuitive. Those features are very impressive. Incentivized Helpful? Francesco Gioeli Enterprise Account Executive Chose Responsive None, RFP360 is the first and the last one we will use always. It is the best, I am not sure of other competitors but I have zero desire to even look for them. Everything you need is inside this one software, and if you have past RFPs you can juggle in, it is an absolute breeze … Incentivized Helpful? Lawrence Kaiser Vice President of Marketing and Communications Chose Responsive It was the only one that had a content library that was separate from the main system. Initially, we were only looking for a content library, but we ultimately went with the full RFP360 system and will move to implement more tools in the future. We stopped looking at other … Incentivized Helpful? Hope Henderson Marketing Communication Coordinator Chose Responsive At the time, three years ago, we evaluated Loopio as an alternative to RFPIO. Loopio didn't have the same resources as far as dynamic branding, content segmentation ability and was less price competitive than RFPIO. RFPIO also has an unlimited user model where you are not … Incentivized Helpful? Carah Counts Product Manager Chose Responsive RFP360 - We used this tool for three years and it was a great first step/upgrade from a searchable Google doc. We decided to start evaluating other systems for a couple of reasons: RFP360 is an end-to-end tool for RFP requestors and responders. We felt they were more focused on … Helpful?

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) 1. RFPIO is perfect for searching for specific information when you are responding to an RFP. Search engine is powerful. We narrow our search using several customized filters and know we are getting a thorough search. 2. Excel responses work very well in RFPIO. 3. Typical RFPs that are formatted in Word are challenging to run via RFPIO. We struggle with this. 4. We have yet to master the template. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) Live collaboration - the ability for multiple experts to simultaneously work on the same RFP. Artificial intelligence - the ability for the product to continually learn what the best answers are and serve them up to our teams. Dynamic branding - the ability for custom brand different templates by vertical, line of business, local branding, etc. with seamless transition. Content review & moderation - the ability for our national content team to bulk review, edit and share content with our teams in a methodical way. Incentivized Hope Henderson Marketing Communication Coordinator Read full review
Cons	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) Reporting and Analytics is basic, you can purchase advanced analytics though It would have been nice to have a set structure in mind or a example/case study to structure our responses in the most appropriate way, but we are working through that with their stellar support team Really great new features, but expensive Incentivized Brendan Blok Sr. Global Business Advisor Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) This tool has been fantastic as we have revamped our RFP process. We are much faster and far more efficient.Our win rate is up, but I am not 100% sure this is the cause, but I love to see it. The customer support and training are also fantastic. Thumbs up! Incentivized Lawrence Kaiser Vice President of Marketing and Communications Read full review
Usability	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) Very easy to navigate and use. Very intuitive user interface Incentivized Lawrence Kaiser Vice President of Marketing and Communications Read full review
Support Rating	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) The team at RFPIO is extremely responsive. If I email our account manager or report a bug, I usually hear back within two hours. Additionally, they are quick to make software adjustments based on customer requests and needs. We had a really complicated Excel sheet that their team ended up having to upload for me because of the amount of manual work I was doing. Based on that, they updated the software within two release cycles to make the process more automated, so that future Excel uploads would be more streamlined. I have also had several suggestions implemented rather quickly, and they don't hesitate to reach out for clarification when needed. Carah Counts Product Manager Read full review
Implementation Rating	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) We were able to complete an RFP during our free trial. We were already leaning toward RFPIO but that pushed us over the edge. Carah Counts Product Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) I was not involved in the process of selecting RFP360 for our firm, so I am largely unfamiliar with competitors.

Return on Investment	Responsive (formerly RFPIO) I don't have access to the actual ROI data, but we would continue to invest in RFPIO as a company only if it were providing us with the results to win RFPs. RFPIO makes the task of filling out RFP responses much faster for me. RFPIO helps our team be able to divide out RFP chores easily, because we know we all have access to the same high-quality source for information. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
