Pros

“A suggestion: Have an alert, non-defensive site navigation team, good listeners, sit side-by-side with a few new clients and watch as they take their first baby steps with NGP8.”

Ace A.

Candidate

“It was not at all evident the flow of information between the various entities, between VoteBuilder-MyCampaign-MiniVAN-NGP VAN...and that NGP VAN is the same as NGP8.”

Ace A.

Candidate

“The ability to create snapshots of areas quickly - e.g. after the most recent election we used VAN to analyze how various groups of voters performed around our various districts.”

Cons

“I spoke with four different people, and each spent more time trying to sell our campaign products and services we didn’t ask for.”

Mike W.

Campaign Manager

“Lists should not expire until after election day - I wrote software for years at giant financial firms, and in my opinion, any voter contact system that expires a voter list before election day was designed by absolute dopes! ”

John T.

Chair

“It makes it harder to train new Precinct Chairs when different levels of users see different views of VAN.”

Commission Area Leader
