Very pleased. I like their professionalism, their customer focus, and the product works really well for us. The first year of using the product had a bit of a learning curve to utilize the full extent of the available options. With some patience from their customer support team they got us up to speed.

Pros

When researching providers, they all had similar features. What stood out with RQ was their desire to understand our needs, and didn't try to oversell us. They were candid, had some very good suggestions, and certainly understood the competitive landscape. It didn't hurt that their offerings had some flexibility (based on client needs) and value based pricing.

Cons

Not much. One thing I missed was our ability to change some of the 'back end' parameters, but that turned out to a non-issue, as once set up we have had little reason to tinker. Requests for any tinkering were always timely.

Response from RhythmQ

From the first meeting with [sensitive content hidden], I knew that we were in good hands. They took into consideration my budget, timeline, and overall needs for the scholarships that I was managing. Additionally, they were able to eliminate the pain points our applicants had had in years prior. While these were small pain points for the user, they were HUGE for me. So eliminating them completely was amazing. Every single person I've worked with at RhythmQ had been kind, caring, responsive and ready to solve any problem that comes up. Highly recommend their team and their product.

Pros

The customer service is top notch. My emails are always answered quickly and problems solved immediately. I love the ease of use as an administrator, for our applicants and reviewers.

Cons

Cost to add an additional license is a little bit more expensive than our small non-profit can afford at this time. Although a bundle rate will work well for us when we are ready to add more in the future.

Response from RhythmQ

Thank you for your review, Abby. It's rewarding for us to hear that our efforts are making a difference. We look forward to supporting your continued success with RQ Awards.

Pros

I liked that there were responsive to all my requests and questions. That they worked with me as if part of our team not just as a vendor. That our application is Sofia's Hope branded and that it is easy for the administrator, applicants and reviewers. The entire process is easy and once set up any change and update is handled quickly and easily.

Cons

Nothing...loved everything about them. Of course as a nonprofit if I could pay less I would but you also get what you pay for.

Overall pleased and helps ease administrative burden on small staff working with volunteers.

Pros

Very customizable set up -they worked to provide a cost efficient set up for our needs. The customer service far exceeds my expectations. Quick and extremely helpful responses. You can tell that they prioritize helping their clients succeed.

Cons

Not the slickest interface and takes a bit of time to understand how it works. Some of the functionality (follow up) is not included in our initial set up but at an additional cost.
