Dona E.

Grant Manager

“For grants management, the system is inclusive as your entire team uses the platform and sees each new action or transaction in the workflow.”

Dona E.

Grant Manager

“Nothing sticks out - perhaps the backend could be a bit cleaner in terms of naming data that is used to pull in reporting information.”

Becca A.

Philanthropy Director

Pros

“Beyond grant discovery, it has transformed the way our team manages grants by keeping projects, tasks, and deadlines organized in one place.”

Cindy S.

Development and Outreach Officer

“It has saved me so much time being able to fine tune my applications as well as save me from pursuing potential funders who did not align with my organization's mission and goals.”

Sarah H.

Development Operations and Grants Manager

“I like how in-depth I'm able to research a funder before I even attempt an outreach, allowing me to best utilize my time and resources to ensure that I am making the most of all grant/stewardship opportunities. Because of Instrumentl, I've been able to impress donors with an in-depth knowledge of their funding priorities, history of giving, and preferred geographic range.”

David B.

Grants and Development Manager

Cons

“For admin users, the Admin Panel is much less clean and simple an experience than the grantee, reviewer, or even employee views.”

Jessalyn P.

Sr. Grants Manager

“My own learning curve made me hesitant about asking for help with minor updates and fixes. ”

Dona E.

Grant Manager

“Our clients say they cannot read all of the questions we have on applications.”

Terry M.

Allocation and Grant Coordinator

Cons

“I did not like the fact that I had to download an expense template, add my information to the sheet and then upload it.”

Laquisha V.

Grant Fiscal Manager

“The only thing that bothers me is that if I find a grant and save to a project, and the officer decides not to apply, there's no way to just remove the grant. ”
