High praise for Fluxx

Improved customer service and access to grant documents for our subrecipients.

PROS

There are so many options to customize features and functionality to meet the unique needs of your specific organization.

CONS

Limited training seats were available with the implementation package, and purchasing additional training seats is a bit expensive. Due to the level of customization the trainings did not always meet the needs of our organization. It would also be helpful to have access to training manuals versus the videos and limited slides that can be downloaded for reference.

Reason for choosing Fluxx Grantmaker

Price transparency - no hidden add-ons. Ability to customize. Ability to integrate with our accounting software.

Fluxx works

The system works best when it is in the background doing its job and doesn't require much energy or attention. For the most part, Fluxx meets that need.

PROS

Consistent performance, good uptime, simple data visualization and organization.

CONS

Complex upgrades, inconsistent customer support and engagement, overly complex in some areas.

Reason for choosing Fluxx Grantmaker

Greater customization, seemed to be more robust at the time, had colleagues that were using.

Reasons for switching to Fluxx Grantmaker

Inadequate performance and service by Cybergrants.

Fluxx Grantmaker for Non-Profit Grantmaking

We open requests for proposals continuously throughout the year, and have about 200 active grants at any time. Fluxx is able to scale with our needs quite well. While building new functionality in Fluxx requires a technical learning curve, we've had good luck with Fluxx service support.

PROS

The degree of customization, as well as customer service and support for Fluxx are strong selling points.

CONS

Using the admin panel to customize Fluxx features requires a fair amount of training. I was worried about this initially, but found that Fluxx has several options to provide user training and/or consultation.

Reasons for switching to Fluxx Grantmaker

We needed more specialized grant management features than were available from Blackbaud.

Vendor Response

Dear Kathleen, thank you for your feedback and for being a valued member of the Fluxx community. If you need additional help for training our customer success team is here and happy to help

Excellent Grants Management System

Overall Fluxx has transformed the way we do grantmaking. We are seamless in our workflow among staff. We no longer are reliant on just the grants management team to keep the process moving along. As our organization keeps evolving and we move toward trust-based philanthropy, we can constantly adapt our grantmaking through Fluxx. Our grantees can log in to their accounts to see their proposals, reports, payments, and past grants. The customer support from [sensitive content hidden] is hands down the number one reason why we would recommend Fluxx!

PROS

The platform is very user-friendly for both our staff and grantees. Fluxx is very customizable for our organization's workflow. Since it's cloud based, we can access our data anywhere, anytime, unlike our previous GMS which was hosted onsite. We have been able to build LOI, single-stage, two-stage, RFPs. The customer support from [sensitive content hidden] is unbelievable!! We also switched from hard copy paper files to being completely paperless and Fluxx has helped us achieve this by creating auto emails and letters.

CONS

The customization in the admin panel requires some degree of programming knowledge, which has been a learning curve. But the fundamental digest and general discussion posts are helpful as well as the training provided. I download reports to excel since they do not generate so pretty. Then I manipulate the data and configure the appearance.

Reason for choosing Fluxx Grantmaker

We narrowed down our search to a GMS that would integrate with our accounting system. We liked the workflow and customization of Fluxx.

Reasons for switching to Fluxx Grantmaker

We were looking for a more comprehensive platform.
