  1. With the updated applicant dashboard featuring a card/tile layout, applicants, particularly students, can face usability challenges when they’re eligible for multiple scholarships. For example, if a student qualifies for just six or more scholarships, they have to scroll to view all their opportunities.

    To improve the user experience, especially for applicants managing several grants/opportunities, please consider adding a toggle option for a condensed or list-style view. This view could reduce the size of the cards or display opportunities in a single row-based layout, allowing applicants to see more at once without excessive scrolling.

    This enhancement would make navigating the dashboard…

  2. Hello - I am finding myself a little frustrated this time around when attempting to update my logon page message (for both SLM and GLM portal login pages). Even if I format outside of the page and copy to paste it in as I'd like it to display, it is now pulling everything left and not holding the formatting.

    My bigger ask to help solve this is can we have better rich text tools in the editing of the Logon Page Message under settings in both SLM and GLM? I'd like the ability to first and foremost choose the alignment…

  3. Could there be a small pop-up when your cursor goes over this field that explains how the primary contact works?

    Our applicants often think "primary contact" indicates who will receive communications about their application. They frequently email saying they kept trying to change the primary contact and were unsuccessful.

    We would like applicants to know that
    1) the primary contact is the executive director/officer
    2) site administrators control who is the primary contact
    3) all communications are sent to the user that submitted an application

    Thanks for your suggestions on how best to make this information clear to applicants!

  5. I accidentally deleted a comment since I was not use to the new dashboard look and See More is sort of hidden in the preview of the comments. Foundant couldn't do anything to help. Would be great if there was a recently deleted or bold the See More.

  6. Ok, we all know red means alert. I have so many applicants who get confused about not being able to submit an LOI, Application, or Follow-up due to being over the character limit. There is no visual cue to direct them. Can that please be changed and save me the time of having to figure out what the problem is, having to increase the character count or explain it one more time?

  7. If multiple users in the system are involved with a request, allow for the request be cross-listed under both/all user accounts. Similarly to collaboration, users will be able to work together on an application, but the request will then appear in both/all users' request histories.

  8. Please restore the site settings allowing admins to designate specific org page fields that can be updated by applicants. I recognize that not every client wants this, but as a trust-based org, we'd like to give our grantee partners the autonomy to update their address on their own rather than having to reach out to us. (And if you all don't recall how this used to work, please reach out to me for more details.)

  9. Please add the custom content back to the new and improved applicant dashboard. On the old dashboard, we included instructions on filling out the application, contact information for our Foundation, and links to trainings. This is not currently possible with the updated version of the applicant dashboard.

  10. This is just a minor UI/UX suggestion. I recently had a grantee miss a deadline because they thought the dates shown on past requests in the Organization History indicated the date the requests were submitted, not the date they were approved. Granted, there are plenty of other ways to check deadlines, but I imagine if it's happened once, it's probably happened other times as well. All this would take is changing the Date column to read Decision Date.

  11. It would be great if an eligibility quiz could be used to filter applicants for specific grant opportunities. So, depending on how they answer the questions in the quiz, it would then show different application opportunities. For example, if the applicant belongs to a small organization that is not scalable and has a limited budget, then after completing the quiz, an application specifically designed for this type of organization would be available to them.

  12. In GLM and SLM, when onboarding new staff members who will be administrators to the environment, there is not really a clear way to lead them through training. The training used to be straight forward with Base Camp and the videos were sequential in logic to help build a true understanding of the software tools. Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't find anything like that now in the Learning Center. There's a catalog of videos and FAQs, but unless I go in and hand pick the ones I want my staff person to take, there's no great way to…

  13. I have many applicants that are continuously requesting their balances and want to see what was paid out. It would be most helpful if they could see that from their dashboard. It would be a time savor for all.

  14. CSuite/GLM synced grants: Applicants that receive multiple grants from designated funds need to be able to see the Fund Name in order to easily differentiate between the grants they have received. It needs to be available for other forms and merge fields too. Specifically on Follow Up forms and in email merge templates.

  15. I would like to be able to set a default answer to questions on the application. Like for drop down or radial buttons, I want to choose a default and then have the option to change it if needed. It would also be useful for information to auto populate from one question to another. For example, the project title would autofill to another question that is a summary of the request.

  16. In GLM, the address fields do not allow for international organizations, and the strict requirements often make it so international applicants have to input incorrect information in order to create a profile. It would be great if these fields could accommodate international addresses.

  17. Please consider only allowing one application per process by each organization. I saw duplicate application from single applicant most of the time. I would be greatly appreciate if it is fixed soon.

  19. On the applicant dashboard, it would be helpful in Historical to show by default (without needing to expand) the status of the request. From the applicant's perspective, it's key to know if a request was denied, approved and completed, or abandoned. It's nice to see immediately what was successful and what was not. The arrow to expand next to the category heading is not clear.

  20. We would like to remove or deactivate the "See Opportunities" button on the left-hand To Do panel. All of our applicants can get to the apply page by clicking "Apply", and having more than one pathway creates confusion.
