Grantbook brings the best mix I have seen around knowledge and care of our sector, knowledge of the various vendors/platforms (not just a specific one), project management, change management, and development resources. They can adjust and augment your organization to varying degrees across all those areas to get the results right. Usually you can only get two or 3 out of that list. Not with Grantbook.

We have been working with Grantbook for the last 2 years. Their depth of knowledge, insight from working with many clients over several platforms, and flexibility in helping us meet our objectives has been invaluable.  Grantbook isn’t only about solving the problems you’ve already defined. They are particularly helpful in addressing the “I don’t know what I don’t know” situations. I highly recommend them.

Grantbook played a major role in helping us identify and implement the best solution for our Financial Management System. Jennifer and Rob added a great deal of value to our project—through the whole process from initiating the RFI, evaluating the RFI, shortlisting the possible vendors, to evaluating and giving us professional feedback on the implementers we worked with. Working with them gave me the comfort of knowing that we were on the right path, and that we weren’t missing any critical steps or points of view. This ended up being a very successful implementation.

Choosing technology was a daunting task for us - after all, the tool we chose would house all of our information. Grantbook did all the heavy lifting, and provided a clear, well thought-out process that made our solution selection process a breeze. Unlike many tech experts, they were very friendly and approachable - I felt that I could trust them to put our needs first.

It was an amazingly seamless experience given the size of the project; this was largely due to the professionalism, expertise and good humour of the Grantbook team. The fact Grantbook are on the other side of the world from the Southern Trust caused no issues at all and in fact worked in our favour as any issues were worked on overnight and often we had a response and/or a solution the following day. I have no hesitation in recommending Grantbook to any organisation to implement, improve and enhance its grantmaking.

Grantbook was a phenomenal partner for our vendor selection project. I loved working with the genuinely kind, super smart, authentic humans that staffed our project and I was impressed by their holistic, thoughtful process to vendor selection. They didn’t just dive in and start talking about features…they encouraged us to take a step back and envision what we wanted our system to help us become as an organization. We really enjoyed every step of our journey with them.

When our foundation decided to search for a new grants management solution, we were at a loss on how to go about this daunting task. Luckily, a foundation colleague of ours highly recommended Grantbook. Jennifer and Maggie were an absolute pleasure to work with! Their expertise, guidance and support were invaluable to our staff and they brought a dose of energy and fun to the project as well. They did all the heavy lifting, brought forward two viable vendors, and ultimately, helped us identify the perfect solution for our needs. We couldn’t have done it without them!
