The communication feature is perfect and the ability to email from the form is useful - please make the links more visible as we work with non-english speakers who often don't see the "VIEW FORM" as a link and just text. Make it a button!

I feel neutral about this, mostly because we do much work on the front end to build strong relationships. In addition to Submittable - we are hosting grantee information sessions and meeting with grantees one-on-one after they have been awarded. I wish there were an easier way to keep notes on grantee meetings inside the Submittable portal. We've not figured this part out yet... everything is tracked based on a grant-by-grant basis vs. the grantee/client having their folder of information.

Because of our approach to the questions in our latest project, we have received more authentic answers from applicants. We also have included directions that require the applicant to take extra steps to consider before applying. Outside of using the platform, we take an extra step to meet with each organization prior to applying, so ultimately I do not believe the program has helped build stronger relationships with grantees - it primarily helps us gather and store the information we need to continue our relationship.

The Submittable portal is easy to talk to grantees on, which makes it more likely that I'll keep up with them on a regular basis. I also appreciate that when they email you in the portal, it send a message to your work email, which you can reply to directly. That way I don't have to be constantly going back and forth between the platform and my work email.

While we have a more closed process when it comes to scholarship recipients, it allows us to create a positive and meaningful feedback session when those applying have questions. This means they have a more likely chance to use it again in the future and trust that, as an organization, their forms won't be lost in the process. This is huge for those who want to spend multiple days filling out their applications.

The end-user experience is great. Submittable looks good. Our users report that it is easy to use. There is increased functionality in terms of notification of funding, for instance. Users can go into the site and see when funds have been transferred. This takes a load off of both of us (the organization and the grant awardee) so we can focus on the work of the grant project, not where the funds are.

It's nice that I can download submissions and store them elsewhere to be read- this supports a truly blind reading process. The annoying thing has been that Submittable sends grant applicants emails which they then complain about to us.

Our partners appreciated the efficiency and effectiveness of Submittable. It didn’t affect how many partners we had, but Submittable did allow us to create and collect more applications, which created more opportunities for our students and alumni.

Submittable was great for the applications, but once we had winners, we started communicating with them via our own email address because so many Submittable communications were blocked. If there's an opportunity to "white label" an email and say it's coming from my organization instead of submittable (similar to how our email provider Active Campaign can white label) that would help us with bounce rates and staying connected.

Being able to follow the journey of teachers from their scholarship application detailing what they are hoping to learn from the institute to seeing their comments post institute saying how much the program has changed their teaching style and has restored their love of teachers. With easy-to-pull reports we are able to share their journeys with the generous doners who make the program possible.

I like being able to message applicants and grantees in one space without relying on email, though it has yet to make a big difference on equity for the purposes I use Submittable for. A good functionality to implement would be auto-replies based on platform managers taking vacation or departing from the organization.

Absolutely! We love that we can message draft applications to continue their application, can message grantees + collaborators to announce winners, and keep in touch throughout the grant year. I am also grateful for the Gold Support package.

Submittable has helped us to fulfill our intention for our applicants and awardees to have a simple and streamlined experience. This has indeed helped us to build stronger relationships with our grantees because it has helped us to build trust. We never used a reporting feature through Submittable, but my impression is that feature is also reliable and simple.

Submittable helps us to review applications much more quickly than we would be able to otherwise. This in itself has strengthened our relationships with grantees. They also appreciate the ease of submission. We are able to communicate with our applicants directly through Submittable - including approving or denying requests. We are also able to communicate directly with our reviewing team through Submittable.
