Extremely helpful and organized; making it a much easier process then expected. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** We cannot format the Q&A so it directly matches the fonts that we use in our templates. This means eveything we bring in as a cut & paste from the library - has to be formatted again once it is in the proposal. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** It heps us to have one source for all content; making us more confident that what is going out the door is correct.

Additionally, the customer support team, Product team, CSM's and training team are incredible. They are always quick to respond, provide solutions or work on product enhancements to continually address the needs of clients. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Requirements Analysis is the least utilized for our company currently. It would be beneficial to be able to prompt the tool to shred a document using specific prompts, and ask to sumarize in a specific word count. Much like CoPilot. I.e Sumarize Scope of work, deliverables, experience in 300 words. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** 1.) Improved proposal workflow - email reminders, tasks 2.) Content Library - ease of finding content 3.) Creating presentations from templates in PowerPoint using LookUp.

Intuitive, Multifaceted Software **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jon C. | Channel Development Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2022 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I love how customizable the solution is including flexible custom fields for defining & capturing metadata specific to fit your business needs. I also like their Help Center documentation and Learning Academy, it's comprehensive and we're able to in-depth product information and training tutorials - otherwise their support staff are very helpful. The Report Templates and Custom Reporting options are great and the data visualization/dashboard features is a nice bonus. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I dislike the recent UI changes. While the updates themselves are good and make sense, it now takes extra time to learn the new UI and update our internal documentation. Additionally, unless your entire organization is bought into this solution, you could run into gaps with your content library if subject matter experts and content creators are not fullfilling their ownership roles and completing their content reviews or continuously adding new materials. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problems they are solving is quickly answering a customer's one-off question, or long form questionnaire, and tracking the value of those information requests. Responsive helps my organization respond to customer inquiries accutately, efficiently and consistently - and collect metrics to help us measure the business impact of those requests. The software also helps us understand trends or categories of questions that clients are asking about, and bring potential gaps in our solutions to our product development teams to help improve our offering. ### 30. Very good experience. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Investment Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2025 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** We frequently use it for general statistics about which projects we participate in and which we do not, and then extrapolate reports for our top management. We also use it for project management, involving as many SMEs as possible in collaboration on the same project. Furthermore, new colleagues can get accustomed to the work very quickly and without much guidance. This is also very helpful, as the tool can be integrated into new processes very quickly. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I think that the automatic analysis of RFP documents for the prompt identification of questions and sections still requires some improvements. Additionally, it would be great if the tool could offer more support in organizing content. I think our library is still our weakest point. The customer service team is very helpful, but perhaps availability in other languages would help. I see that some colleagues have problems with English, so local contacts would be helpful. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** The most important help from Responsive is that it helps us organize a project (RFP) very quickly and involve people super fast. We improve communication as all messages are available in the tool and we maintain a paper trail. ### 31.

The features enable GSCs to provide prompt answers to RFPs, especially with tight deadlines using the automation tools and update current information from the Content Library which would be further utilized in our future RFPs. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Not the platform itself, more on the volume of backlogs of scheduled review contents that is not being taken action to. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Allows GSC to provide prompt answers to RFPs especially with tight deadlines. ### 33. Streamline RFP process across regions **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Søren B. | Head of Bid Management - Department in Commerciel Legal Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** At Kamstrup LLC, we decided to implement the Responsive platform for North America. This has been a success for our bid team and we have achieved a more streamlined process and management of responsibilities on one platform for answering bids and better bid management. Collaboration, sharing of content and an overview are essential for us. Now we are starting up with our EMEA region bid teams. So far we haven't come across any features we miss or can't configure ourselves. The content library is central to us, and we expect an even better use of resources and a higher quality in our bid response. We use SSO for user login and have plans for integration toward MS CRM, Team and Onedrive for file handling. Responsive has very strong Help functions with easy to use examples. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** At the moment we have not find areas we don´t like. We have been able to configur additional parameters/data via Custom Fields. A commen overview for Q&A Pairs with Tags, Comment and Flags could be usefull, but can probably be configured since the system is very flexible. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Having One commen Library across Business Units and Regions. A better Project overview. Better resource allocation and collaboration. ### 34.

Responsive is flexible and can grow with our organization, adapting to our needs. It has become a key part of our operations. Customer success is excellent. Jody is always ready to help and quick to answer any questions we have. This has been a big plus in our experience with Responsive. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The platform can feel overwhelming at times. The many features and options can be confusing for our new users (SMEs). It also takes time to learn the full range of functions. The Auto Respond feature, while helpful, does not have great match confidence. However, we are in the process of reviewing/updating our answer library content so hopefully this will help with the auto-respond accuracy. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Responsive has been a game changer in solving our RFP management challenges. For our small team, staying on top of daily tasks, collaborating with SMEs and meeting tight deadlines was a constant struggle. The content library especially, simplifies response creation, reducing time spent on each RFP. This has allowed us to manage multiple projects efficiently and ensure consistency in our responses. ### 36. Streamlined, Collaborative & AI driven perfect knowledge database **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Soumik R. | Proposal Support Coordinator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 20, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** A perfect tool to help you find your responses quickly which integrates very easily into the workflow. Multiple options and filters to narrow down searches. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I have faced some interface glitches although nothing major that hindrances my work process. I am not sure if it has a functionality where the users could rate a response and that way it shows up as the most used and relevant response. The AI does a pretty decent job on days but I am sure that it will evolve into a much more intelligent and relevant soon. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** As a beginner to proposal management, I was quite blown away as how efficiently Responsive could extract and label questions [ almost 7 out of 10 times ] from the documents, the auto repsonse suggestion is very helpful. Although it requires human intervention, being a newbie it does give me a wide overview of all the possible responses. The allocation workflow is easy to adapt to. Managing authors, reviewers and assigning tasks are very simple. I believe the UI/UX is very intuitive and user friendly. Saves a lot of time especially during a tight deadline. ### 37.

Great RFP content management interface; foggy on the export templates. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael F. | Director of Marketing, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Responsive is designed by solicitation responders--no doubt about it. The features help us organize and maintain an efficient and reliable answer library even while responding fast to RFPs. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I've yet to click with Responsive's Microsoft Word-based export template feature. Microsoft Word is difficult to automate efficiently, even with a high-end interface like Responsive, so it's tough that that's the only option. Rather than trying to translate Responsive's style mapping into a useful Word template, we just export our content from Responsive and give it to our graphic designer. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Responsive brings us faster RFP responses with reliable answer recommendations, quick stakeholder assignments, and visual progress indicators. The visual progress indication makes completing an RFP a little more fun. Your library of answer recommendations is intuitive to maintain with valuable features like tagging, keyword searching and filtering, cyclical review, and duplication prevention. ### 44.
