Fluxx Grantmaker 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

My overall experience has been a good one from the moment I started using Fluxx to meeting [sensitive content hidden] at PEAK and networking with the support team at FluxxCon, as well as connecting with other Fluxx users. It continues to be a journey of learning and growth in my work as grants manager. My program team is forward thinking, innovative, collaborative state-wide and just out-there in amazing ways in what they want to do. It is fun and challenging to create the builds they can imagine with help from Fluxx. I am an honest user who struggles with new stuff on my plate but Fluxx helps me find the solutions step-by-step and we get it done! If you are considering Fluxx Grantmaking, I promise this, you wonʻt regret using Fluxx if you want to grow, learn and do amazing work in your realm of grantmaking. The tool is here. You just have to use it. Aloha and Mahalo, Elizabeth Naholowaa Murph Grants Manager Harold K.L. Castle Foundation Kailua, Hawaii

We've been on Fluxx for almost 7 years. In that time staff has taken the time to learn and become admins which has been important for us. Having that inhouse knowledge of the system's best practices and structure has been imperative in building and maintaining a system that supports the ever changing needs of our organization. Similarly, we are able to depend on Fluxx (Management, CSM and Support) for assistance as needed for different projects and enhancements. It has been a good partnership.

The experience with iNet when we implemented in 2019 was less than ideal. After handing over the reigns to us, and we learned the administrative backend on our own, we quickly realized that the initial build of Fluxx was already unsustainable in the way it was structure. The documentation that was provided was less than ideal and was very little help. The training was also miserably lacking, as our whole staff would likely agree on. Fluxx was a step forward for us, as we have been using a legacy system may decades old, but the longer we used it, the more issues cropped up. The more I learned in the admin panel, the more I realized that the current setup was unsustainable and would eventually require a complete rebuild if we were to remain. We got very little help with that issue (about unsustainability) and little to no advice from Fluxx on how to proceed. We are getting by today, but as we add more programming we continue to struggle to fit things in our current setup. Not only is the setup an issue, the persistent issues with existing functionality, the bugs that arise and take a year to get fixed. Its been frustrating to say the least.

Overall, I don't think there's a better GMS out there than Fluxx. It's user-friendly on both the staff and grantee sides for people who aren't confident database users, and it offers nearly unlimited ways of looking at data for staff who are. Fluxx's customer experience staff are responsive, supportive, patient teachers, and transparent when they can't find an answer. The system's DocuSign integration is light years beyond what I've seen from other platforms. The Admin Panel comes with its frustrations for admin users, but it also provides more customization options and ownership than just about any other system I've worked in. And as a former grant writer myself, Fluxx's Grantee Portal was my favorite to use, hands down.

Through Fluxx implementations at two different organizations, I have had a very positive experience with both the platform and the Fluxx team. I most recently completed a Quick Start Implementation, which streamlined the process immensely.

Very satisfied with the GMS and would genuinely recommend it to any grantmaker.

At onset the pacing of the onboarding process was set well, and the team was very accommodating. The staff building the product frequently answering questions and willing to 'tinker' to service the need of our organization and the uniquities of having our membership agencies as grantees. During the initial testing process, we felt like we could have benefited from more guided instructions (we don't know what we don't know) and perceived that we needed more time during refinement as we had a different perspective/ understanding of how the system worked and needed to make the necessary adjustments. However, our team felt rushed by project management at times to complete the project ahead of schedule - but during meetings expectations/priorities were clearly discussed and interim meetings were held (in-between standing meetings) to ensure the quality of the product.

Our overall experience has been excellent. Applicants love it, panelists love it, and our internal team loves it too. Fluxx works seamlessly with our custom integrations, including the city's unique payment systems and workflows. I’m excited to continue learning and growing with the platform. I’m aiming to become a power user!

Fluxx is our one source of truth for all granting activity in our organisation. In due course, it will be good to see the UI modernised.
