SurveyMonkey is also easy but lacks some of the integration that Google Surveys offers. Most people use Google or have an account which makes it very easy for them to use. Google Surveys are free and there is a free account for Survey Monkey, however it is more limited compared …

I have used Google Forms to create surveys in the past. I think SurveyMonkey delivers faster results that you can easily read and understand.
Chose SurveyMonkey Apply
SurveyMonkey Apply is a full workflow tool that is very user-friendly and has a low barrier to entry for administrators and users. No database or coding knowledge is required to customize and implement this tool.

We think that Submittable is the top platform available and will continue to use it for our clients. The start-to-finish platform makes our workflow smarter and more efficient, leading to better decisions and bigger impact. We are always looking for new programs and when we …
Chose SurveyMonkey Apply
None! This is the first software we are using for this.
Chose SurveyMonkey Apply
I think that google forms is a bit more accessible as most of what we do is on google and so in that regard, it is hard to prioritize an external software when it can do basically the same things.
Chose SurveyMonkey Apply
We were an applicant for a grant through another entity that used FluidReview. It was exactly what we were looking for in a grant application software. We did not compare any at that time as FluidReview fit our needs. Since then, we have applied for grants through GovGrants. …

SurveyMonkey Apply has a much better user experience and is easy to navigate so that there was not much reliance on customer service reps to handle the program buildout and maintenance. SurveyMonkey Apply also has better data export capabilities, and we were able to design the …

I honestly didn't search any further than SurveyMonkey Apply, as the price was so affordable and the ability to do everything we needed was already there.

We selected WizeHive [Zengine] due to the flexibility and the customer management. We can always talk to someone.
Chose WizeHive Zengine
I wasn't a part of the selection decision
Chose WizeHive Zengine
Frankly, WizeHive Zengine was the best platform in the market when our non-profits were ready to move away from paper applications and archaic scholarship management. It continues to serve our needs, and we have not found a platform that offers something more attractive.
Chose WizeHive Zengine
Although Planstone was suggested to us as a more robust system than WizeHive, it was actually more difficult to use and did not meet our needs. We regret leaving WizeHive for Planstone.
Chose WizeHive Zengine
Compared to these, Zengine is on par with each of them. All of them offer pretty much the same functionality, although a couple of the others have a more user-friendly interface. Zengine is on par with pricing as well, similar to all of these. The difference comes in when you …

I wasn't working with the USTA Florida team when they were using GIFTS, so I'm unable to compare. When I came into the organization they were already on their search to find a system to replace Blackbaud and had closed their grant applications for over a year since they didn't …

I think SurveyMonkey is well suited in company meetings to see how well customers like a certain product or in staff meetings to see how well a new teaching method is doing in comparison to an old one. I honestly think that SurveyMonkey can be used in just about anywhere that customer or employee feedback is valued.

I highly recommend this software, as it has allowed us to be much more transparent with the delivery of benefits and their applications, also the hours of work in this regard are less, allowing staff to devote to other tasks. A very useful and necessary software.

Pros
  • SurveyMonkey Apply has the best customer service I've ever experienced in a company. They are easily accessible, super helpful and friendly, and they will work until they are able to find a solution.
  • The platform for building an application on SurveyMonkey Apply is simple for the user. It's set up with such a clean format that is appealing to the eye and incredibly user-friendly.
  • The application system also has a lot of flexibility, making it easy to customize your applications as needed.

  • Grant application management can be daunting, but Zengine makes it a lot easier.
  • Combining the grant application, review process, and final reporting process in one portal is a huge convenience!

Cons
  • An average administration may not have the technical capabilities to adapt and shape it for themselves. While SurveyMonkey Apply has an option for tech support for a price, it is not something always easy for the admin.
  • There is no way to cross reference users by Social Security Number or other identifier. In other words, a single applicant with multiple email addresses could potentially apply and receive benefits as the users are tied to email address not email address and SSN.

  • Integration with other apps/software
  • More flexibility for custom application and form design
  • Enhanced options for using the data in the platform (ie: across forms)

We didn’t really use their support. I wish they would have told us more about the fact they were changing to get rid of the flash player as that was the main reason we left.

Their design team gave us the option to save some money by creating the forms ourselves for both the submission and review portals. This also allowed us to get to a point where we felt very comfortable in any future changes that would need to be made to forms since we were so immersed in creating them.

SurveyMonkey and SurveyGizmo are great to use for other programs and events that require collecting fairly basic responses and feedback, however, these don't provide the level of information and data that is needed for our grants processes.

Return on Investment
  • Positive Impact: allowed us to move to a more virtual office, just in time for COVID's forcing all to work from home/remotely.
  • Negative Impact: made it much harder to capture all data we need to merge with all applicants since organization created.

  • Helps keep all applications in one place
  • Can drain admin staff resources with troubleshooting
  • Allows us to see who starts, but doesn't complete application so we can follow up
