The software rarely lags or glitches and the uptime is in excess of 99%. The tools within the software make responding to client questionnaires easier than ever, we love the ability to manage all of our various projects with helpful metrics and reporting to prove both the value of our team and the tool. The integrations are also a huge time saver and reduce the amount of downloading and saving of files.

We looked at other solutions but found the collaboration, ease-of-use & format of RPFIO to be the best. RFPIO has created a central data repository for our company where we can quickly organize and update our content library, ensuring that answers we are putting out are accurate. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There have been a few times when uploading documents with multiple columns where conditional questions were missed. It would be nice if everything was captured. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFPIO is creating a central space where we can really look at all the information we're putting out to clients and easily verify with other internal parties whether that data is correct and up-to-date. Around 60% or so of our privacy questionnaires have common questions, so the auto-suggest from previous replies helps save a LOT of time. We can also manage completion and delegate sections appropriately to ensure an even workload. ### 8. Great project management tool! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The UX is user friendly and intuitive making it easy for even first time users to do their part. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Lack of AI generative tools.

We love appreciate the five star review. Regarding AI generative tools, have you looked into AI assistant? If it's new to you, I'd recommend contacting your CSM or account manager about our industry-leading AI capabilities! ### 9. Streamlining RFX process across the company **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Yoel B. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2022 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Mostly we like the - Q/A database - integrations to Hubspot, Office Suite, chrome - automatic suggestions/answer finder - export to Word in predefined format The new UX is very intuitive and helpful **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The AI for automatic replies could be better. There're afew bugs there. UX is a bit all over the place **Recommendations to others considering Responsive, formerly RFPIO:** Make sure you talk about all integrations and which ones you use. They have good integrations but all of them come at additional costs. Make sure you keep your data clean - not too much content.. - better quality content **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Answering the same questions repeatedly - making sure we focus on the top X questions. Making sure all collaterals are updated and centralized Answering tech and security questions ### 10. An Investment, But a Worthy One **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Once configured, Responsive has made the process of building out responses far quicker and easier, with a more professional looking result immediately. The team is more productive and less stressed during key busy periods. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There is a high barrier to entry. From configuring user roles, building templates, writing sections, amassing a knowledge library, to training users, there is a lot of work which must be done prior to it ever producing its first response. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** We respond to a very large number of RFPs each year, usually concentrated around certain busy periods, leading to lots of stress, overtime, and cut-corners in document presentation. Responsive's role is to make first drafts of responses faster, easier, and more professional so that the team can concentrate on value-added tasks and responding to every viable RFP. ### 11.

It seems to know what best practice is and can cater to a wide-variety of organizations and RFP processes. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Often times it is not very intuitive, which wastes time. A box that needs clicking will auto populate, default settings are not always helpful, etc. I find myself going through multiple unnecessary steps often to accomplish a simple task. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Houses all of our answer library in one location, allows from cross-team collaboration and visibility. ### 12.

Great product for delivering RFPs and questionnaires fast **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Impressed by Responsive's speed in tackling RFPs and security questionnaires. It's really easy to find answers and make sure that the answers are correct and precise. The UI upgrades make navigation a breeze. Collaborative features simplify teamwork. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Adapting to it took time, which can be frustrating for urgent tasks. The UI upgrades are positive, but the learning curve persists. Once you're past it, the tool's benefits shine, especially for teamwork and standardized responses. Just be prepared for a bit of a learning curve. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** It allow us to answer RFPs, RFIs and security questionnaires faster and pricise. It also helps to standarize the answers that you give to clients, making sure that the information you are provided is correct and the one that it's authorized to give ### 17. Powerful, comprehensive platform with visibility into all aspects of proposal management **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jennifer S. | Sales Contract and Proposal Manager, Education Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 07, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** RFPIO is helping me scale our proposal operations exactly as I'd envisioned, so to say I love it is an understatement. Working in the education industry, my team sees all sorts of RFxs, from complex state procurements to simple vendor approvals for a school district's approved vendor list. RFPIO works for all of these projects. The integrations with Word, Excel, and Chrome make it easy for my team to respond to bids in online platforms like Bonfire or Ionwave.The content management tools are superb. Being able to separate content like data security allows the data security team to review and update the relevant content easily. The Executive Dashboard gives me insight into all aspects of our proposal management. I can report everything my boss and the leadership team need to see each month. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The only thing that I haven't liked is that, when updating a project stage of an archived project, the submitted date changes to the present day. This causes the project to appear as "Delayed" in the Executive Dashboard, when that isn't the case. I then have redo the project stage update, input the actual date of completion, and then resave. It's a bit fiddly but the other tools more than make up for this minor inconvenience. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFPIO makes responding to security and privacy assessments a breeze. The automation tool quickly predicts the best response, so what used to require manual lookup in a separate document from the data security team now takes maybe 10 minutes tops. The best part is how RFPIO can accommodate these documents in any form - PDF, Word doc, or spreadsheet. For our proposal preparation and response management, RFPIO has very powerful content management tools that make it easy to insert content or create and update new content. I can even write new content for a proposal but then moderate it separately later on before it goes into the library. **Official Response from Ryan Campbell:** > Jennifer - Thanks for your review. We're so happy our software is making proposal management easier at your organization. ### 18. This platform has doubled the amount we responded in 2023 **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** We have everything in one place for our entire company. The SME's have fully adopted the platform. And we have been able to respond quickly and compliment! **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Formating tables and having them upload into our templates can be tricky. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Efficiency ### 19. Responses and FAQs for all and All of our Product lines **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The licensing model was most appealing for our organization where we have tons of contributers across many products. This model makes it very flexible for our sales organization. Being able to seperate questons and answers by products using their collections feature was also very important for us too. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There some lack of automation when creating projects, we would like to auto-assign projects to certian collections (products), moderators, and reviewers. Currently this is a very manual process. At this time they are going through a redesign of the UI of the platform and I am not convienced it is better yet :/ **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Reusing common information across the organization. Responding quickly and effectively to RFPs which often have a very short return time and hunderds of questions. ### 20. Easy to Store - Easy to Find **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Barb Y. | Manager, Proposal Development, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 27, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Storing and locating responses within RFPIO is a breeze. It's a user-friendly tool that requires very little training to get new team members/stakeholders up and running. The tagging system works nicely and allows you to apply a single piece of content across several categories/product lines. Databases with folder structures require you to choose a single location for each response; when that response applies to several products/solutions, you're forced to add the information under each applicable category/stack. This creates duplicates and also requires you to maintain multiple records containing the identical response. With RFPIO you can tie as many categories as you wish to each response and filters allow you to easily find the responses for each category. You can add as many tag levels as you wish, allowing you to drill down deeper than other solutions. I gave this 9 stars instead of 10 because at times I do wish there was an option for viewing responses in a folder-like structure (RocketDocs & Loopio), but overall the tagging functionality has been beneficial. Additionally, I like that you can flag content with expiration dates. It doesn't create an automatic review cycle, unless you ask it to. Instead, it flags the content with a deadline and alerts the user if they're trying to use an expired record. This ensures the user knows when it's time to have the information verified/revised before adding it to their project. The expiration date also allows you to focus on the content you use most often, versus forcing you to spend time maintaining content (via review cycles) that may not be needed very often. Also, sharing content with non-licensed users is fast and easy and there is no charge for this feature. Not all SMEs hold licenses; therefore it's very efficient to be able to send a record to an outside stakeholder and allow them to weigh-in directly within RFPIO. Lastly, the extensions are very helpful. I can add database content directly from Microsoft products or online forms; the extension brings RFPIO to you, instead of you having to toggle over to it. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** At times I wish there was an option to view content within a folder-like structure, such as Loopio or RocketDocs. However, RFPIO's tagging structure is what allows my team to be more efficient and prevents us from needing to maintain duplicate records solely because the information applies to more than one product line (more than one category within the database). **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFPIO allows us to utilize consistent information and branding regardless of the presentation or prospective client RFP. It also prevents us from digging through old RFP documents for answers, enabling us to move very quickly when we respond to client/prospective client requests. **Official Response from Ryan Campbell:** > Thank you for your detailed review and for being a customer Barb. ### 21. Sales Executive **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 01, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Is a collaborative tool for RFPs submission **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** It is not very intuitive ... a little hard to use **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Have the team in the same page in terms of activities responsibles and deliverables **Official Response from Eddy Brotemarkle:** > Thank you for taking the time to provide us a review! We love hearing from our customers. Also, I would suggest reaching out to your dedicated CSM. They are trained on how to provide clarity within Responsive and can definitely make it easier to use! ### 22. User Friendly UI. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Abinash P. | RFP Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2022 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The best part is we can bring unlimited users to collaborate on a project. Even the dashboard is customizable which helps our team for better visibility. The reporting ability is far better than others. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The new UI has some technical glitches which the customer support team could not rectify. Even the content library is not that user-friendly and sometimes leads to confusion when it comes to new users. **Recommendations to others considering Responsive, formerly RFPIO:** This is my first experience with any RFP tool but frankly speaking, it took me just a few days to get accustomed to the tool. Very much user-friendly I would say and recommend to others. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Get good automated responses only if you have sanitized your content library properly. Helps in better collaboration with different team members and it saves time and effort. ### 23. RFP Input framework **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael H. | Channel Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 14, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** One good function of a Request for Proposal (RFP) writing software like RFPIO is that it can help streamline the entire RFP response process. This software can automate many of the manual and time-consuming tasks involved in responding to RFPs, such as organising responses, tracking progress, and collaborating with team members. It's really helps with providing a knowledge base hub of previous responses and best practices to help improve response times. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** One potential disadvantage of a Request for Proposal (RFP) writing software like RFPIO is that it may not be suitable for all types of RFPs. Some of the RFPs we complete have unique requirements that cannot be easily addressed by RFPIO and may require more customised responses. Sometimes RFPIO may not always provide the flexibility or creativity needed to make proposals stand out from the competition **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFPIO can help ensure consistency and accuracy across all responses, making it easier to meet RFP requirements and stand out from the competition. Supports scalability ### 24. Very solid user experience **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 08, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I really like how easy it is to create new responses and store them in the system. It is also super convenient to change the search functions which allow for finding more unique responses that can then be captured and combined for RFP's. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** At times I find that there are too many responses to try and filter between, and I wish I could create additional filters to help me further investigate. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Responsive is compiling all the RFP items I answer frequently into one massive database, allowing me to save countless hours re-creating simliar responses. It also allows me to find some responses that others have created that I can then use on my RFPs. ### 25. Responsive is a Critical Time Saver **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Responsive provides Navisite with the ability to quickly and confidently develop RFx and questionnaire responses that are critical to our success and to remaining compliant with our Customer's evolving needs. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The downside for us has been the trouble that comes with any new tool, and that is getting buy-in across the organization and encouraging greater adoption of the tool across more functional areas. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Responsive is saving us time by helping to analyze the content in our library to bring the most often-used content to the top of our searches while helping us reduce clutter by finding potential duplicate responses and also maintaing accuracy in our responses b yensuring proper review cycles. ### 26. Like hiring a team of experts and project managers; it's more than just a software solution! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kevin K. | Assistant Vice President, Marketing Communications, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2019 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There are so many things about RFPIO that I love, that it is hard to just mention one or two in this review. The ability to collaborate, track deliverables/milestones of each project, and quickly populate RFP responses with answers from a database that I know is up-to-date, are all key things that make my life easier. Our proposals used to take between 40 and 60 labor hours to complete, and now we average right around 9 hours per proposal. So that alone has helped my team become more efficient, be able to support other tasks besides proposals, and increase the number of proposals that we can manage at one time, significantly. But, I also love that we have been able to create proactive proposals in the platform that sales teams can generate with minimal effort in less than five minutes, without impacting the workload of my team. And, when language needs to be updated, my team can make a single change to the template being used and know that every future proposal will have the correct language. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There is nothing that I specifically dislike. We have had challenges with creating export templates that meet all of our proposal requirements, but most of that is user error. When we drop our personal pride and ask for help from RFPIO's customer success team, we always end up with guidance that solves the problem. And customer service has been top notch! **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are currently in our busy season. We have more than a dozen proposals in progress, and 30+ people contributing to the content of those proposals. Each proposal used to take 40 to 60 labor hours to complete, and now we average nine hours per proposal. When I start work every morning, I open the platform and see the status of each proposal. Within five minutes I have a clear picture of how each contributor is doing with their responsibilities, whether I need to reassign a question or bring someone else in to help with an answer, and I have been able to retain my time for other company needs that would have previously been neglected during a busy proposal season. **Official Response from Summer Opsal:** > Hi Kevin- Thank you for updating your review, it’s so valuable to hear how the experience has changed for our customers. “Our proposals used to take between 40 and 60 labor hours to complete, and now we average right around 9 hours per proposal.” … WOW. Congratulations on such a massive efficiency gain, and as you said, now you can focus your attention on other things you want to accomplish! Also, your comment about your sales team being able to generate a proactive proposal in less than 5 minutes with minimal effort is a big win and one that’s essential to breaking down silos that can slow our business down. Kudos to you and your team. And thanks again Kevin. ### 27. A real timesaver **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 31, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Responsive has allowed our team to have a focussed area where we can work on our projects. With everything from team chat to vital documents on one handy screen, it's easy to see the bigger picture of our projects and enables all of our staff to get the most out of each task. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There is still some work that can be done around the intake phase of a bid. Things like the ability to track clarification questions before the intake is moved to projects is vital for us, as not all bids that come across our intake will be converted to projects and a lot of the time, the decision for this is made based on clarification questions. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** As well as better reporting and tracking features, it allows our team to see everything we need relating to each RFP in one place. We do not have to bounce between shared folders, different chats and apps: everything is in one place and easy to find. This saves a considerable amount of time and ensures that all relevant documents and updates are easy to find. ### 28. Where has RFPio been all my life? **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Having a centralized location to access our knowledge library has been a game changer. The RFPio University has wonderful training videos that you can access at any time! I love the ease of use dashboard and user interface as well! Great product if you want easy access to your standard RFx responses, RFPio is the best tool on the market! **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The only advice I would give users is to be sure you are uploading clean, useful and accurate information. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFPio allows us to fulfill more RFPs in a timely manner. ### 29. Solid Content Platform with Continued Feature Updates **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 25, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The platform is easily used by sales, content, marketing and RFP teams. Content permissions make collaboration and fidelity of content simle to manage. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Challenges with table and image appearance within the feature. Platform is best used with a large monitor due to the amount of information held on one screen at one time. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Collaboration between internal and external subject matter experts. **Official Response from Eddy Brotemarkle:** > Thank you! The ease of use is one of the best features about Responsive (along with so many others!) If you'd like some tips and tricks about the table and image appearance, I'd reach out to your CSM and they can walk you through steps to help make the experience even better for you. ### 30. Responsive/RFPIO has transformed our Tender responses **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** We switched from using SharePoint / MS Teams. The content library and recommendation facility saves huge amounts of time searching for content. Content owners find the review scheduling/update process very easy to use. The project dashboards make managing mulitple bids so easy - you can see at a glance the live status, who needs to do what and when. Having all bid comms (chat, CQs etc) within the project is brilliant, especially for new team members/coving leave etc. The time savings gained have allowed us to shift our focus to review/tailoring our responses. The Responsive support team are great, always polite and keen to resolve issues and provide help and advice. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** A few little bugs in the releases (continual deployment model), which can be frustrating, BUT we flag them and the are generally resolved very quickly. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Responsive is delivering a single, holistic bid management tool incorporating document management, project management, communications and reporting. This is significantly reducing 'admin' time and allowing greater focus on value add activities e.g. tailoring responses and maximising our potential scores. ### 31. Time Saver! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ivy B. | Team Lead, Marketing and Sales Support, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** RFP360 has made such a huge difference in saving time for us. The amount of time we spent manually putting together proposals, sending them out individually, and spreadsheeting proposals was insane. The implementation process with RFP360, the buildout and the support from the team has also been exceptional. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I think the only capability I wish the system had was adding more than one file at a time when dropping files. This is now the most time consuming part of our process, and we really feel it when we are quoting a block that has between 30-60 groups, with 3 to 5 files per group. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Time management, and multi project managment. It's allowing a streamline process that saves us several hours per group/block that we are putting out a proposal for. ### 32. Life changing for RFPs **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 24, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Easy navigation, cuts down on admin work when working on RFPs **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Sometimes the results aren't pertinent to the search **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** RFP resonse times **Official Response from Eddy Brotemarkle:** > We loved that Responsive is making your team work more efficiently! Thank you for the feedback! ### 33. Straigh-forward, easy to use **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Nothing fancy, easy to send info to and from different teams in the org. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Nothing stands out that I dislike. My use of it is pretty simple. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** HAving to email forms back and forth. I can simply send a customer request to our Vendor team and they can track the customer info, fill out paperwork and send it right back via Responsive. ### 34. Use Responsive for your enterprise needs **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shehla G. | Sr Consultant - CRM Systems, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** able to respond fast and use the answer repository **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Training docs knowledge base mutiple business implmentation **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Able to respond soon ### 35. Easy and intuitive platform to interact with. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The search engine is very accurate that makes is easy to find the relevant articles. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The only thing I can think of would be to improve graphics and make it more modern. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** One central place to obtain accurate information vetted by our security team. ### 36. User Friendly and a Great Productivity Enhancer **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Karen W. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 14, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Great interface. User friendly. Easier to learn and to use than other comparable products. The help feature, once fully updated to the new interface, is great. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The source document upload and coding for Question, Answer, Comply, etc. does not work smoothly on anything but basic projects, causing a lot of manual work. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** The content library management is much easier with RFPIO. ### 37. Great tool for RFP management **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 15, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The best part of using Responsive is that you can utilize it not only for text-based RFPs but also compliance questionnaires. Compliance questionnaires are often the most time-taking pieces to procure for a submission, so it helps when you have a pre-compiled template within the tool as a starting point. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** When it comes to general RFP management, Responsive is very similar to other tools, such as Loopio. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is a huge time-saver when it comes to document generation, and it leaves more time to focus on customizing responses. ### 38. Extensive functionalities and features, easy to use **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2024 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The content library provided extensive categorization of the answers that we provide to the customer **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** There needs to be a less time-consuming way of updating the answers in the content library **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Fuliflling RFIs and RFPs, updating answers from SMEs **Official Response from Eddy Brotemarkle:** > Love that you're finding the content library to be extremely helpful for your team. For any assistance on content library and any pain points you are having, can you contact your CM and they can guide you with the right tips and tricks. ### 39. Platform consultant **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tino N. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** User-friendly interface: The tool has a clean and intuitive interface that makes it easy for users to navigate and use the features efficiently. Automated templates: The tool provides pre-designed templates for different types of bids, which saves time and effort in creating RFPs from scratch. Collaboration features: The tool allows for seamless collaboration among team members, with features such as real-time editing, comments, and version control, which enhances team efficiency. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Lack of integrations: The tool may not integrate with other key business tools, such as CRM systems or project management platforms, which can hinder seamless workflow and data exchange. Steep learning curve: The tool may have a complex learning curve, requiring significant training or onboarding for users who are not familiar with RFP processes or similar software. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** The tool facilitates real-time collaboration among team members, enabling them to work together on RFP responses, share feedback, and track changes, which can improve team productivity and coordination. **Official Response from Ryan Campbell:** > Thank you for the feedback. We love to hear how RFPIO is improving your RFP process. Is there a specific CRM system or project management platform that we should consider an integration with? We integrate with multiple different tools but I'd be happy to pass on more integration ideas to our product team. ### 40. Great security tool to reduce the back and forth between commercial and security teams **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Very easy to find information related to our company's security tool and posture Allows commercial folks to answer security questions - reducing time and mitigating the strain on the security team **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** No negative reviews but the UI could be better **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** It bridges the gap related to security knowledge of our product and company. It makes it very easy to answer questions for clients and you know they will be 100% correct ### 41. The ideal RFP repository for all my solutioning needs. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 26, 2022 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Referring to benchmark responses reduces the repetitive approach to responding to RFP,RFI,RFQ events. The search capability is truly unique and works seamlessly through the documents. Versioning capabilities are also commendable and because this is a thin client, access to the software is very easy with SSO enabled. I have been using this tool since past 3-4 years now from my previous organization and I haven't seen any tool which can replace RFPIO for proposals **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Creating new projects is a little cumbersome, but it is a piece of cake once you are well-versed. The first-time creation of project experience can be improved a little. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** 1. Reducing effort to respond to RFx events. 2. Benchmarking responses to reduce repeatability and improve compliance 3. Creating new projects. 4. Better versioning capabilities thus improving compliance. To summarize in terms of organizational values better TAT, improved compliance are the key benefits this tool provides. **Official Response from Summer Opsal:** > Hey There- I’m happy to hear that RFPIO saves you some headache by relieving repetitive tasks!

Responsive for content mangers **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Laura P. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The system has transformed the project management and creation of our bid responses. It has taken a very manual process and applied logic to the drafting phase of answers. Our business is growing rapidly and we need a bid response tool to cope with creating speedy bid responses: the tool achieves this. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Moderating content can be a labour intesive project. However, we have taken tips from our CSM to implement a better approach to saving content in the library at the project level to make moderation more efficient. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** None logged at this stage. ### 44. Seek and ye shall Find. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Ability to put phrases from customer's security audit forms into the search criteria and find the matching answer. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Requirement to filter for Okta versus AuthO answers **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Giving security approved responses, ensures accuracy of responses. ### 45. Made our messy process so much easier **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Steve T. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The format allows us to replicate 90% or more of the content we get. Huge time savings and added consistency. Saves the burden on cross functional colleagues. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Nothing. The service is flexible enough and the support and training were great. We have been able to quickly adopt RFPIO into our once burdensome processes. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps with heavy time demands that RFPs place on our lean staff. Our sales team can spend their time selling rather than roping in resoures to help answer RFPs. ### 46. Easy to use and Great Features **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sana T. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Segregation and classification of content is really good when you import any file Section creation is easy and accessible As compared to other solutions, usability is far better. Integration with google docs is great. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** As of now, everything is working well, but in the standard package there is a cost to for addition of users after 10 and integrations will procure cost as well. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Automation in Proposal Creation Response Structured Content Library Flexibility in Template Creation Increase in Productivity Tagging helps in Recommendations & Searching Content ### 47. Incredibly Helpful but Still figuring it all out **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michele F. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I love that we can add new answers to the library on the fly, as they're used for an RFP response. Easy to track project contributors. Minimizes so much email!! **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Keeping the answers up to date. It really is garbage in, garbage out. Your teams need to be diligent and archive old, out-of-date answers. Some of the matches can be totally off but that can be fixed with appropriate tagging **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** The biggest win with RFPIO is lessening the email load. Everything is in the tool and we don't need to track emails. Tied for biggest win is the ability to "police" your contributors. Who's in there? Who's not using the tool? Why? Being able to train and help based on knowing who's in and who's not. **Official Response from Summer Opsal:** > I couldn’t agree more with your “garbage in, garbage out” comment … Even as we progress with technology, this one simple fact will continue to be the case it seems! I’m glad you and your team have found efficiencies with streamlining communication between teams. Thank you again for taking the time to review. ### 48. Overall Good, With a Few Recommended Changes **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lauren C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The platform does make my job with responding to questionnaires a lot easier, and the Content Library feature is great! **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** It can be glitchy and inconsistent at times. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping a knowledge-base repository, keeping answers up-to-date, and streamlining questionnaire process flows. ### 49. No more typo's and misinformation **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Karen P. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 20, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** The ability to save answers and documents into the library gives new starters to an organisation an opportunity to assist with the large task of responding to RFI/RFP's etc. The use of flags and comments allow a more senior person to review any answers that the new starter may not be entirely confident about. The document library has version history which is also very helpful. **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** Ideally it would be helpful to have a read only user profile as part of the standard offering rather than having to pay additional licence fees for this feature. Our broader team has heard about RFPIO but we are unable to provide them with a log in without the risk of our answer library being potentially impacted. **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** Ability to ensure all answers are current and accurate - with no grammar or typing mistakes. Also, being able to view other answers in your library and being able to slightly adjust based on a similar question - this saves so much time. **Official Response from Ryan Campbell:** > Karen - Thank you for your detailed review. We'll pass on the feedback to our product team. ### 50. Robust Tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2023 **What do you like best about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I like the versatility of the tool, it can be leveraged in different ways with the right administrator **What do you dislike about Responsive, formerly RFPIO?** I wish it could be more customizable for the different user levels **What problems is Responsive, formerly RFPIO solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is a great content management tool. I think if there was a quicker way to format that would be great. There are some RFPs that are unique. If the integration from RFP360 could be transfered into Responsive that would make a huge impact ## Responsive, formerly RFPIO Discussions - [Are any plans of including AI/machine learning capabilities?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/are-any-plans-of-including-ai-machine-learning-capabilities-113c9cff-af26-45bf-84df-2ffd837bdd62) -
