    While the tools given and access to data is simple, the overall functionality of the tool is lacking some basic features. Scholarship Manager from Next Gen Web Solutions provides a place to add users for share donor engagement and scholarship review process. However, having more editing, print, and save functions are handy. An annoying feature is when reviewing scholarships, you have to scroll and scour full lists of recipients to completely confirm them for a scholarship. We found this a chore when sharing review duties broken down to cover specific alphabetic quadrants.

    Without a doubt this is a program that I would recommend because of how useful it was for us. Everything is now easier, the applications arrive in one place, everything is automated and the program itself helps us to evaluate the applications faster. I highly recommend it to all companies that provide scholarships.
