Easy to learn and customize. Customer service has been outstanding.

### "Best tool on the market"

May 21, 2019

5.0

As I said above - it's powerful, and the AI learning has cut our RFP process from 5 business days to 1. The efficiency and time saved alone makes RFPio worth the investment.

Pros

RFPio is easy to use, both for users who are comfortable with technology and those who are not. It's powerful, and the AI learning has cut our RFP process from 5 business days to 1. The live library allows us to supply up-to-date statistics and data for RFPs across the country, making sure we're giving potential clients the most current information to aid their decision-making progress. Additionally, our onboarding support was outstanding. We love this tool!

Cons

We've had a minor learning curve around reviewing data and creating cycles for our organization, but nothing insurmountable.

### "RFPio Review"

March 5, 2019

4.0

So far, I have had a great experience with RFPio and recommend the software to those working on proposals!

Pros

The Answer Library is an awesome feature and it is very easy to use. I love how RFPio automatically recommends answers to questions from your answer library.

Cons

The actual interface of going through managing a project in RFPio is not straightforward and a bit confusing.

### "RFPIO - make them your best friend!"

December 18, 2018

5.0

RFPIO is the second most utilized SaaS vendor we have onboard! RFPIO saves us hundreds of hours per quarter.

Pros

Ramp time was super fast. We were up and running across the organization in a few hours time. End user training is minimal - users picked it up fast because the software is so intuitive.

Cons

NA. RFPIO is so flexible. Find a feature you want enhanced - just tell RFPIO and they typically include your request as a new feature release.

### "Do More, Better, Faster with RFPIO"

September 13, 2016

5.0

We've had an excellent experience with RFPIO. The company continues to add highly relevant features to a very intuitive, user friendly platform.

Pros

RFPIO allows us to capture the very best of our existing content into a single platform for reuse over and over again. The intelligence built into the tool allows us to rapidly identify the correct content to address a specific RFP question. This allows us to save time and money as a company, and most importantly, helps us win more. The end product we're able to produce using RFPIO is a beautifully formatted, compliant, impactful RFP response that gets attention.

Cons

RFPIO is at the beginning of what promises to be a very successful Software as a Service Platform that will help proposal writers and capture managers everywhere produce the best proposals they can -- cost effectively and quickly. The company has been very responsive in adding new features, fixing issues and incorporating suggestions to enhance the platform.

May 14, 2019

4.0

Pros

I like that the update team is responsive to requests from users, and that it is continually being improved. The system is easy to use, and integrates into MSFT and SalesForce products easily!

Cons

Not everything is in the most intuitive place. I have to explain to users how to respond to questions that the system emails out, and exporting is only from the main menu.

### "Great product"

May 21, 2019

5.0

Pros

The software is very user-friendly. It's cut our time putting together proposals in half because we don't have to search through countless files looking for the "perfect response." Answers are easily searchable, and I love that you can assign different user roles with varying degrees of permissions. Glitches or issues are responded to quickly as well.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything. It's been a lifesaver!

December 18, 2018

5.0

I'm so pleased with the service and support I've received. A great experience.

Pros

The best feature for me is the search functionality and the filters. This product has made such a difference in my overall productivity and organization. I couldn't be happier!

Cons

I can't say that I have a con. I continue to learn new things about the platform each time I use it. As I increase my expertise, I expect my satisfaction to increase as well!

### "RFPio Review"

September 20, 2016

5.0

Prior to using RFPio we used Google Drive for collaboration. When working on an RFP/RFI or VSQ I would have to open all recently completed projects in separate tabs and to find answers to questions in new projects I would have to hit Ctrl +F to search for most relevant answers. It was extremely time consuming and tedious as many times I could not find and latest answer I knew I was looking for. To review my RFPs/VSQs before returning I would need to pull in software architects and product executives who often times would need to make minor but many edits. With RFPio I can search for answers in one central location and know for certain it is the most current information. I can easily assign other authors who can take advantage of the answer library. Our estimation of the time spent on RFPs/VSQs as an organization is about 25-30% compared to the Google Drive approach. It has greatly helped me protect the time of our engineers and executives.

Pros

It required one demonstration to become proficient enough to use it on my own. Every time I have needed help, Ganesh, the CEO has called me back immediately. If I need a feature that would be beneficial to all users, it only takes a matter of days to roll new functionality out.

Cons

I have not run into any problems. Although it is a newer product, they seem to be very prepared for many scenarios of projects.

### "RFP Responses made easy"

May 22, 2019

5.0

Pros

1\. Intelligent content recommendation feature - this provides >50% efficiency in responding to RFP questions 2. Intelligent Import tool - This saves considerable manual effort in copying the questions from Customer format and exporting back in the same format without disturbing any other content.

Cons

Wishlist 1 - Ability to export responses in PowerPoint format. A PowerPoint editor can help stich together artefact from Document library and put together a proposal based on need.

### "Time saver"

May 14, 2019

5.0

It’s easy to use. They keep adding upgrades. I only got stuck once and support was very responsive. Haven’t had any issues with RFPIO.

Pros

Saves time by allowing easy collaboration on RFx responses.

Cons

If I had to pick something I would say that the auto-responder never worked for me. Nice in concept, but for some reason never finds matches even though I know there’s answers in our answer library that match. It’s a small thing though. Overall I’m happy with the solution.

### "Modern SaaS RFP Response Solution"

September 20, 2016

5.0

Experience with vendor has been superb. RFPIO team has been extremely responsive on all fronts, including setup of a trial, training, and support.

Pros

The intuitive user interface requires minimal training - casual users can be productive almost immediately. Excellent reporting and dashboards provide real-time metrics and visibility into the status of the response team's efforts - thereby obviating unnecessary response status calls and meetings. The workflow capabilities facilitate the deployment of a repeatable process and controls, going far beyond what you can do through documented business process and policies alone. Prebuilt connectors to apps like Salesforce and Slack foster collaboration among the core response team and across departments. Support for import/export from/to a wide variety of file formats enables use of the tool beyond RFx responses.

Cons

Product has not been on the market very long. The response recommendation engine could be more mature.

### "RFPIO Rocks!"

December 3, 2018

5.0

Re-use of RFP content (responses). Assignment, workflow and progression tracking on a tight schedule with many business and technical team members. The largest value of the RFPIO solution to date has been the ability to quickly ingest and RFP and quickly assign components of the RFP response to relevant team members in a easy to utilize interface.

Pros

Ease of use and design layout which make the platform ease to utilize.

Cons

As with any SaaS offering, there are always bells and whistles that you would like to add. I have little to no negative feedback regarding the offering.

### "RFP Huge Time Saver!"

September 1, 2022

5.0

Definitely saves time and efficiency when multiple people need to respond.

Pros

Response library, uploading templates from RFP's, a place to keep attachments and "share" responses in an efficient manner. Also love the built in electronic signature tool.

Cons

Sometimes difficult to find the right feature, sometimes seems too buried.

### "Save Time, Improve your Customer Experience"

January 22, 2017

5.0

I have been skeptical of RFP software, since starting in this business in early 2000. A lot has changed and the team at RFPIO have done a great job. The solution is intuitive and easy to use and provides not only a collaborative environment but also a consistent deliverable that helps my company express it's professionalism through another medium. The day after our first training, RFPIO was put to the test. We were presented with our first Security Due diligence request. What would have taken us at least a day to complete was done in under an hour (we had uploaded previous responses with RFPIO's awesome help). While this may not always be the case, it proved to me that every penny spent on the solution will be worth it. If your team is strapped for time and is always scrambling to squeeze in RFP's in their hectic schedule, this product should be on your list of tools to get.

Pros

Intuitive solution that helps streamline an otherwise tedious process providing consistent results. The UI is well thought out and the team at RFPIO is continuously improving the product and soliciting their customers input.

Cons

The product is still fairly new and so some things are missing, but as mentioned above, the team at RFPIO is extremely responsive to input and work tirelessly to improve the product

### "The customer support is excellent. RFPIO really cares. "

August 24, 2017

5.0

Being able to attach owners, set a review cycle where they will be notified automatically to update answers and documents within the database. Also the feature of recommendation when answering questions. To be able to add the correct answer to a question in one click while in just one database.

Pros

The RFPIO team willing to add features for our particular needs! The ease in starting a new project and being able to complete it quickly with the help of the database. Love the reporting capabilities. Glad to have the discussion section for documenting conversations.

Cons

I think it would be most helpful to have tutorial training videos in the self help center. Wish we could save attachments that could be opened within the discussion section.

### "RFPIO delivers top-notch software and service"

October 19, 2018

5.0

RFPIO is the software solution our company has been looking for to improve our RFI and RFP responses. Having great software is really important, but it's equally as important to have a solid support system, too. We're thrilled with RFPIO's top-notch customer service. Two of the representatives always go above and beyond to help us whenever we need it. I can't say enough great things about this company!

Pros

RFPIO has helped my team knockout RFIs and RFPs much more quickly and efficiently.

Cons

While there is a slight learning curve with the software, it's only because RFPIO provides users with such a feature-rich user interface, allowing them to respond to RFIs and RFPs more effectively.

### "We reviewed over 30 solutions, narrowed to 6 for detailed review - RFPIO was the clear winner."

August 24, 2017

5.0

We are just coming out of the pilot phase, but expect this to significantly decrease our turnaround time for responding to a request. Additionally, we see this software making collaboration and review much more accurate and convenient.

Pros

RFPIO had some very unique capabilities when we first reviewed it, importing RFP's from a variety of sources was a real differentiator. The pricing model based on active RFP's rather than concurrent users fit our decentralized model perfectly.

Cons

We were coming from a home grown process and have had to rethink how we manage the RFP's. There were some usability issues, but in the pilot process RFPIO addressed all our requests rapidly and professionally.
