"User unfriendly and glitchy"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

The demo we had a couple of years back was nice, however something this simple shouldn't require that much tech. I do like being able to manually adjust things, however a simpler layout would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

I find a new glitch every time I use it. Not user friendly. It reminds me of something you would see around the turn of the millenia. I have lost so many hours of work due to glitches, or having to manually adjust everything. You can do something one way one time, and have to do it differently the next time.

"Not user friendly, worst email platform used in my career"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

I honestly do not like this platform. It's too complex. I have used SEVERAL platforms in my career and imodules is the most complex, most Non user-friendly platform I've ever used. I guess the only thing I liked about the platform at the time was that it did the job. And I worked in the fundraising arm of a college, so I guess it helped raise money. However, the platforms I used afterward at the place I was working worked A MILLION TIMES BETTER. Much more user-friendly, much more customizable. It was a dream.

"iModules use in higher education fundraising and site design"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

I love that iModules has a wide range of features and integrates well with Ellucian’s Advance. Also pretty good for web design. We use it for most of our internal giving site pages and it's very easy for design. It's also very easy to integrate with our CRM ellucian advance and can update records in the system when constituents make edits or updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

The console and user interface can be a big clunky and slow. Overall pretty good though. It does everything, but isn’t exceptional in any category. The user interface can also be a bit difficult to navigate. Overall the benefits outweigh the drawbacks but there it certainly room of improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Loving iModules and events"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

After transitioning from our old product, Encompass is so much more advanced. I love the ability to customize our event registrations and use role based content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

It is a little bit more time consuming to set up a new event than it was on our old platform. Setting things up on the backend feels a little more technical, but the end result is much more attractive and consumer friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not Easy to Use!"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

Customer service is extremely friendly and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

I'm used to editing the back end of websites and I find imodules to not be user friendly at all. I export a lot of reports and then have to spend even more time editing each report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined and efficient event management tool"
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

iModules/Encompass Event Management is easy and intuitive to use, provides great analytical tools, and seamless integrates its email marketing platform with its event registration software. They also provide great resources/customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

A lot of the products and services as well as training opportunities come at an additional cost. It is good to make the investment in this additional training but can be hard to identify the right timing with staff turnover (at our institution) over the years.

"Used to update website, records, send emails, and more."
What do you like best about Anthology Encompass?

Being able to use one program to manage multiple things. It makes it easier when everything is working together.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Encompass?

Having to create a new email template to send out reoccurring emails. There isn't a way to reuse an email and send it out to reoccur. You would have to copy and paste the html into a new reoccurring email template and schedule it to reoccur. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
