Good value, practical software
What do you like best?
Well thought out package that covers all aspects of running an award, from entries to judging to galleries and sponsorship. The vendors have a deep understanding of awards and anticipated everything we needed. Good level of flexibility for different kinds of competitions. Award Force provides an API and SSO integration, plus an acceptable level of white-label branding via the GUI. Much more cost-effective than trying to develop it ourselves and a better result than cobbling something together out of off-the-shelf no-code products. Good security, data protection, spam prevention. Good attention to legal issues like conflicts of interest and disclaimers. Very responsive support.
What do you dislike?
The design is a little rough around the edges in some respects. The GUI could be more modern. File uploads are clunky, slow and would benefit from more flexibility. Although the SSO is in general well implemented and very useful for us, we encountered some technical problems but we were able to work around them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Award Force to any organization that doesn't routinely build its own web applications from scratch, and even some that do might want to consider it.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We are small mostly volunteer organisation. Award Force saved us a significant amount of admin and development time and effort. Compared to previous awards we have run using our own solutions, we have a much better experience for competition entrants, much smoother admin, better handling of media and a judging process that is less complex and easier to audit.
