The onboard was super helpful. They seem like they really care that we get the most of the product.
Difficult time identifying missing submissions.
I've had overall great experience and I've been using Submittable about 5 years. I like accessing a real customer service rep in the old days, and I like the older version of Submittable better.
The only real downside was in terms of features/functionality; Submittable does not offer automated initial screening of applications.
Tracking the progress of my submissions is amazing. Everything is there and I don't have to chart it on a separate document.
But these are more feature ideas, nothing that I'd consider negative about the existing product.
I like how user-friendly this software is - the customization of applications is great with the build your own features.
It's always when the publisher/competition requests its use. I have no reason to use it beyond that.
The customer service is outstanding, usually responding the same day. Overall I have been very happy with SweepWidget.
The screens can upload slow at times. So when I’m on the phone it is a pain.
SweepWidget customer support is awesome. They have good Documentation which is well documented and easy to understand.
The one issue I have with SweepWidget is that there is no option to verify some entries (Youtube likes/comments) for the giveaway.
It is the perfect integration to promote and grow your social media reach. The wide range of freemium and premium options makes SweepWidget the perfect companion for any business, small or large.
Unfortunately, there is no easy way to export both entries and participants into one spreadsheet.
We absolutely love Sweepwidget for our giveaways and campaigns with Boy Scouts of America's large audience. It has been a fantastic tool for collecting information and growing our email list.
There isn't really any cons. When copying a campaign I think the image creatives are not copied as well.
Maiah R.: Hi. My name is Maiah. I work for the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. We are a foundation of over 800 employees, and I would give Submittable a four out of five. I use Submittable to manage our scholarship application process. While Submittable is typically used to manage financial grants, we have applicants apply to the Bob and Marion Teacher Institute Foundation scholarships for our summer program, so we're able to collect the data of what state they're from, what grade level they teach, and what program they're interested in. What I like the most about Submittable is the flexibility I have with it. I'm able to create different paths that I can do the, if you answer yes to this question, then they get a whole new set of questions. If they answer no to a certain question, it'll skip 12 things. That saves them time and headaches. The few things I dislike about Submittable is occasionally it confuses itself and it doesn't follow those paths 100% of the time that I tell it to set. And occasionally that can cause a little bit of confusion for our applicants, but it's a pretty easy fix.
