"Game Changer for our public records requests"
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

Consolidates our sometimes massive quantities of records so that we can easily share the responsive records with future requesters. We're better able to keep track of what has already been shared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

Just like with all technologies, there are limitations. The one I've found is that my folder structure with up to 9 subfolders results in the system being unable to upload because the document names are too long - even compression of folders didn't work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Best Solution for Your Public Records Needs"
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

With the ease, simplicity and convenience of receiving and completing a request online, there is really no other option or choice than to use NextRequest for all your public records needs. Just when I think, "NextRequest couldn't possibly have this (specific) feature, NextRequest surprises me and actually does!" The customer service and support staff are also very helpful and receptive to suggestions for improvements, which I love. With helpful features and a friendly team, NextRequest is one of the best (if not the best) public records requests manager out there! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

The only thing that I dislike about NextRequest is that not everyone uses it! More people should use it--they should hire a marketing team, or hold a national summit, etc. to get the word out! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

The number of notifications every day, I just need to be notified when I am the one you are waiting for on or near the due date, not every day! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamline ORR processing and follow-ups"
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

The biggest reason I would recommend NextRequest is that it streamlines all the requests that are submitted in a way that makes it easy to read them, solicit the appropriate individuals for the information, and process them for release. There’s so much less babysitting and reminding of those providing the information (because they are busy too) because they get automatic reminders. I will just say that processing open records requests use to take up to 50 percent of my work time and now that’s about 15-20 percent of my time. The amount of saved paper is also tremendous. It’s made a huge difference in how and where I spend my time and resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

If there was one thing I would add, it would be a way to create a folder for items received from a colleague who uploaded them as all separate files. When I submit those files for release to the requestor, I have to release them separately which can unnecessarily jam their email up with separate email notifications. Being able to bundle them up all in one file after receiving them separately through the upload process would be helpful. I understand they are working on that feature.

"Easy to use and incredibly helpful"
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

We love how customizable everything is as well as the ease of use. It makes all of our requests easier to process and track. With multiple people in the office working on requests ease of communication is incredibly important and NextRequest makes that possible. Our customers enjoy using it as well especially the ability to pay online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

We have yet to find a dislike about the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Public Records Act (PRA) Request management system for govermentments"
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

I particularly appreciate being able to set my preferences to get the once daily email summary showing all activity for my requests. As a manager overseeing the requests, but not being directly involved with gathering the documents, it’s a great way for me to track deadlines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

So far, I like and understand the system. Nothing to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"NextRequest enhanced our ability to track CPRA requests and respond in a timely manner."
What do you like best about CivicPlus NextRequest?

1) It has greatly enhanced our ability to track CPRA requests and respond in a timely manner.

2) The notifications have been very helpful to ensure that deadlines are adhered to.

3) The ability to communicate with internal system and not have to copy/paste messages, or save attachments to send is a great productivity tool.

4) Being able to see how other departments responded to similar requests allows for consistency throughout the City. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CivicPlus NextRequest?

In order to view requests for my department, I need to filter from the entire organization universe of requests. Once in a specific request, I need to re-filter to go to the list of department-specific requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
