Senior Business Analyst Insurance Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "An excellent tool for community grant and CSR program management" August 25, 2025 4.0 Pros The platform's adaptability is remarkable. We could quickly establish automated systems for evaluation and approvals and design unique forms for community funding applications. It is significantly simpler to track applications and report on the impact of financing because everything remains in one system. Cons Not much thus far. It took some getting used to the platform's many capabilities, but their help staff made it easy. Review Source Akhilesh M. Software Test Engineer Telecommunications Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Submit.com has made management easy!" June 13, 2020 4.0 submit.com has made management very much manageable and does the job that it is intended to do. Data analytics are very impressive and definitely helps with third-party integrations. Pros The workflows are quite easy and if we are stuck anywhere then the support team is quite friendly to help us with even the silliest doubt. The 'multi-tag' and 'auto-reject' reject feature is always on point and there have never been issues. Cons The smart form builder is slightly confusing to understand. Switched from [Submittable](https://www.capterra.com/p/158382/Submittable/) Although there are few similarities including the names, the experience provided by submit.com is far better in terms of customer service and user experience. Review Source EC Eamon C. Director, IGNITE Programme Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "IGNITE Graduate Business Innovation Programme" May 20, 2019 3.0 Our overall experience has been very positive. The platform streamlines our application processes and support is readily available by phone or email. Pros We run a number of start-up initiatives to support start-ups every year and we often have applicants progress through the workshops before applying for IGNITE, our full-time programme. Submit provides an effective platform to capture, track, share and assess applications across all our start-up initiatives. Cons I suspect that we are not taking full advantage of all the features available on the platform. Review Source TH Trey H. Foundation Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Grant Application Management Game Changer" May 21, 2019 5.0 Submit.com's platform allowed High Fives to develop a professional application process that allows us to track the lifecycle of our grant recipients. Pros Submit.com's platform allowed us to streamline our grant process while allowing for better control and input from key Board members. Cons I can't think of a single thing I dislike about this platform. Alternatives considered [Submittable](https://www.capterra.com/p/158382/Submittable/)[OpenWater](https://www.capterra.com/p/140294/OpenWater-Awards/) Reason for choosing Submit.com Submit.com is the most robust platform for the price. On top of that, their customer service is the best I have ever seen. Representative worked closely with me to ensure the smoothest possible transition for High Fives. She reflects great credit on her organization. Review Source Response from Submit.com May 23, 2019 Hey Trey, We really appreciate you leaving us such a positive review! We're thrilled you're having a great experience with Submit.com. The entire team were delighted to hear your feedback. Thanks, Dean SM Sanket M. Website administrator Online Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent means of handling CSR and local grant schemes" August 25, 2025 5.0 We have also visited the Submit.com to run our CSR initiatives and community funding programs. We have an insurance company that funds (with grants and donations) non-profit organizations, and we were looking to streamline this process with a system to manage the number of applications, reviews and approvals. Pros The platform is also impressive in terms of the upward flexibility. We would be able to customize forms used in community grant applications and establish automation in workflows/ reviews and approvals. All things remain within a single system making it much easier to trace applications and report on impact of funding. Cons Not much to report yet There are numerous options which made the initial installation slightly time-consuming but their support team has helped make it easy. Review Source AP Aditya P. Data Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Streamlined and Powerful Platform" August 25, 2025 5.0 Pros I liked Submit.com's ease of use and intuitiveness, which make it simple to start up and maintain apps with little assistance. The software saves a great deal of time by streamlining operations with automated procedures and customisable forms. The consolidated dashboard, which streamlines tracking and assessing submissions, was another feature I liked. Cons The fact that Submit.com has so many options that it takes some time to completely utilize them is what I liked least about it. It takes some learning to become comfortable with everything because the platform is so extensive. But once you do, it turns into a strong and useful instrument. Review Source SR Suvankar R. Lead generation specialist Facilities Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Powerful Tool for Simplifying Community Funding Programs" August 25, 2025 5.0 User-Friendly & Intuitive Interface. Very easy to get started as a user. The platform is incredibly easy to use with a great design. Everything is managed in one system. Efficiency saves time and resources. Pros Great tool for managing CSR activities and community grant programs. We were able to quickly design customized forms for community grant applications and implement automated workflows for reviews and approvals. Having everything centralized in one system makes it much easier to track applications and measure funding impact. The platform’s flexibility is impressive Cons Nothing major to note so far. The platform is feature-rich, so the initial setup required some learning, but their support team made the process straightforward. Review Source MK Mohanjit K. NA Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Brilliant tool for managing CSR and community grant outreach" August 29, 2025 5.0 Was very easy to use and understand, and very affordable. Recommended for everyone. We used Submit.com to help us with our community funding programs and corporate social responsibility. Submit.com helped us test the whole process. Pros The platform is really flexible. We could easily make custom forms for grant applications and set up automated workflows for review and approvals. It's all in one system, which makes it easier to track applications and report on funding impact. Cons The platform is packed with features, so it took some time to learn how to use it, but the support team was really helpful. Review Source Patricia T. Career and Personal Development Coach Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fantastic data submission software." September 30, 2018 5.0 I found the software very intuitive. I was up and running very quickly. I found the admin team management feature very useful for confidential business forms. Pros Ease of use plus ability to accept data and media in multiple formats. Cons That it wasn’t around when I started the business. It would have saved me a lot of time.

May 23, 2020 5.0 I am a big fan of Grammarly business and recommend it to everyone who needs to write for business. Pros Grammarly business is a great software that's easy to use with great functionality in 2020. The software continues to improve each year. Cons I wish the software would auto correct a little less. The soft ware could use a little tweaking on this matter. Review Source BL Bret L. Adminstrator Publishing Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Superior staff!" January 8, 2020 5.0 I reached out rather frantically the week before Christmas to Submit.com after Submittable couldn't come through for our needs. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] became the point man for the project I was pursuing, and though, finally and much to my shame, those above me elected to go with Submittable regardless, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] powered through a proposal/draft/demo site for our project, going well beyond the call of duty. He worked through the weekend before Christmas putting together the (striking and beautiful) site, and even set up a call with me for Monday, 23 December, to go over the plan. But only minutes before our scheduled talk, I received a call from my higher ups that we didn't need the program \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] had set up. I then spoke with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], apologizing for all the trouble I had put him through, and to my surprise and relief, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] was incredibly gracious and understanding. I had to twist his arm to get the name of his boss out of him so that I might be able to write a letter in praise of him and all his work, his wonderful demeanor, his wherewithal, his commitment, and then, in the face of all his hard work proving moot, his grace and understanding. I promised him that one day I would find a way to work with Submit.com, and I will. Thank you for having in your employ such a fine man as \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. He has represented your firm very very very well. Congratulations! Pros The staff--particularly, one \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], who was a terrific representative of Submit. Cons I have nothing but good things to say about this product. See my letter below. Alternatives considered [Submittable](https://www.capterra.com/p/158382/Submittable/) Reason for choosing Submit.com See above. Review Source Response from Submit.com January 9, 2020 Hi Bret, Thanks so much for leaving a positive review. We really appreciate it. Hopefully, we'll be able to collaborate on a future project. Best, Dean SA Sanusi A. Administrative Officer Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent and Reliable Solution" March 28, 2021 5.0 Submit is very useful for our institution. We have created several engaging schemes for students with the use of submit.com, without facing any stress. We majorly use it for most of the application forms for students. Pros Submit.com can easily be used for building request forms. I like the fact that it is well vast in handling several engagement programs for users. Likewise, it offers a great value for money. Cons It has absolutely performed up to par. There are no significant drawbacks.

We hope you're getting on well with the system. Best, Dean FS Francisco S. Creative director Entertainment Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A lot of personalization, easy to set up" January 10, 2021 5.0 I manage an art community, and I'm constantly asking questions to our members, at least once a week, being about introducing new products, inviting artists, new content, etc. Other platforms are effective, but I cannot encourage enough to try this software. Use the free trial and then decide, I think that is convenient in many ways (easy to use, team collaboration, etc) Pros It took less than expected to start using it, if you think that starting using a new software may be discouraging, this is not the case. Cons The pricing is still not convincing me, I'm willing to try it because the easy-to-use features are a must. It needs a longer trial period.

Pros Used Submit.com to run an awards competition. Set up was easy with the help of customer support and our applicants had no problems using it.

Best, Dean VR Verified Reviewer Freelance Photographer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MAKES WORK JUST THAT EASIER!" December 16, 2019 5.0 Overall, we're happy. I wish we would've found it sooner. Submit.com has a lot to offer, some of which we don't need or use at the moment. At the moment I don't see a reason why we'd stop using. Pros The ease of use. The purpose. The features. It makes things a lot easier when everything is right here for you. You can collect employees forms and signatures all in the same place. Helps eliminate paper load and helps keep you more organized. The customer support is by far the best. They offer training if needed which we found to be very helpful! Cons Not much I can think of. The only close to con I can think of is the time it took us to initially get set up with Submit.com, BUT being it was our first time using a new program/software that was kind of expected. Otherwise I don't have much to complain because we are pretty satisfied. Review Source Response from Submit.com December 18, 2019 Thanks so much for leaving a review.

Having created a shortlist we eventually decided to use submit.com and it was a great experience. Straight forward to set-up and made the entire process so simple compared to what was a cumbersome experience in previous years. Really great experience. Made the whole process enjoyable. Pros Quality tool. Support was exceptional. Business integration while helping us map the workflow/process improved efficiency & saved so much time. Great functionality and very affordable. Personally, I found it really good to learn how other organizations are managing their awards and grants.

The support from the submit.com team, both within the platform and through direct contact, also made it very easy to use. Cons It takes a little bit of time to set up initially but that's probably expected with this kind of platform.

Best, Dean DW Dominic W. Festival Organiser Events Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Fantastic for Festivals" May 7, 2019 5.0 Very positive support and very useful software - really improved the way we ran competitions in our festival. Pros Submit.com comes with fantastic customer support that enables you to get the best from the software - whether on the phone, online chat, or a shared screen, they really help you take control of the software. The user interface is very simple and allowed us to successfully run an online competition, which most of the entrants found easy and straightforward to use.
