“Flexible but references are clunky”
Pros
This is our first time using a dedicated grants management system so I was a bit nervous. But Optimy is more intuitive than I expected once you get the hang of it (and I'm not a technical person!). The dashboard is cleaner than other options we considered and it's actually more sophisticated than we even need. It seems flexible enough to customize for our specific needs.
Cons
Our grants require academic references for each application, which the system isn't currently set up to handle. The workaround for evaluations feels a bit clunky. That said, the Optimy team has been very helpful in finding solutions and they're constantly improving the product so we're hopeful this feature will be added soon.
