## Reviews

### "RQ changed our awards for the better" — 5.0/5

> **Lid** | *29 January 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The RQ platform has transformed the way in which we run our awards. It has simiplified our process for in house team and also for our entrants. Our entrants have found it so easy to use and having the option to have draft submissions on the site very beneficial. 

The customer support team are incredible at resolving any issues in a timely manner.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not think there are any parts of the platform that we dislike. It does take some time to get used to sorting the reviews phases out.
> 
> From the moment we signed up to use the RQ platform, our experieince has been phenomenal with the RQ team.  \[sensitive content hidden\] is so attentive and supportive, even there is a time difference (UK \> Canada), we still get timely responses and any issues/queries are resolved. 

For years, we have hope to launch our awards cycle in October, but we have never managed to, until our first year with RQ. it has simiplied the amount of manual admin work we have had to do, and has given us great insight into our entrants.

### "A Powerful, Time-Saving Platform That Transformed Our Scholarship Process" — 5.0/5

> **Cameron** | *30 June 2025* | 2128 | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The RQ Platform has significantly streamlined our scholarship and grant programs. It’s easy to use, highly customizable, and has saved us substantial time and resources. The platform allows us to manage everything—from application intake to review and follow-up—in one place, which has improved both our internal workflows and the experience for applicants. Customer support has also been very responsive and helpful whenever we've had questions or needed changes.
> 
> **Cons**: There have been occasional system bugs, particularly related to page load speeds. At one point, we had to redesign our welcome page to avoid lag and ensure smooth navigation for users. That said, the RhythmQ team was very responsive and worked with us to address these issues, and we’ve seen improvements since.
> 
> Overall, our experience with RQ Platform has been excellent. I was directly involved in bringing it to ECCLA, and it’s made a huge difference in how we operate our scholarship and grant programs. It’s cut down on manual work, increased efficiency, and allowed us to better serve our applicants. The system is robust, adaptable, and has become a critical part of our workflow. We’ve also seen real cost and time savings, which is so important in our nonprofit setting.

### "RQ Experience Review" — 5.0/5

> **Ryan** | *26 June 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The platform has a lot of intricate fields and dynamics while being very user friendly. The overall structure of how applications are created, formed, and processed makes reviewing applications for constituents much easier. The automatic email generation system, tagging and filtering systems help us properly stay in touch and identify applicant's place in the scholarship process.
> 
> **Cons**: There can be glitches in the admin reporting process, leading to gathering data later than needed. This problem is mainly offset with a very quick response time from the RQ tech team which work hard to run reports when I am not able. Also, the PDF package feature has some bugs, and we unfortunately can't use that.
> 
> I and my team have been very pleased with RQ Platform. First, working with RQ's team has been fantastic. \[sensitive content hidden\]  has been our main contact, and we are incredibly happy with her. She is very responsive, thoughtful, and dedicated to making our program function as best as possible. We also had wonderful experiences with\[sensitive content hidden\] , who was the sales rep we first talked to when deciding to choose an online platform to host our scholarship program. Without those two the RQ experience would be far less enjoyable. From the program management side, we are so grateful to move from data entry by hand in excel from a paper application to a thorough online portal that all applicants can go to fill out their needed information. It has been a much quicker process for all parties involved, whether it be applicants or admin our experience has been amazing overall. We still continue to look for more efficient process in RQ's system that can match with our program needs and we know RQ's reps will help us if we ever do need to pivot. It has been a great experience overall.

### "Foundation Scholarship Council" — 4.0/5

> **Xiong** | *3 February 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Pretty user friendly. Here's what I like about the RQ Platform: Easy to find submissions, adding reviewers and sending out emails to winners. The Program Dashboard helps with retrieving quick numbers, if need be, Submission tab helps with finding applications easily and assigning and removing reviewers is a breeze.
> 
> **Cons**: I can't seem to find a way to assign applications evenly to reviewers, but I'm glad that there is my contact Sanket Parab who can help me out with that.
> 
> Overall, I like the RQ Platform. Again, it is pretty user friendly once you get used to it. The support library is helpful majority of the time.

### "Amazing Customer Service\!" — 5.0/5

> **Abby** | *23 June 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use. Extremely supportive customer support. Both the reviewer and the applicant are able to access their information easily without watching a tutorial. It is extremely intuitive.
> 
> **Cons**: Only issue is not even with RQ itself, but the AMS system we use not being smart enough to connect with outside vendors as intuitively. Despite this, the RQ team was able to find alternatives to the issue.
> 
> From the moment I met with the team at RQ I felt like it was the right place for our organization. Not only did they work with us on our budget, but they provided great tips for optimizing our scholarship and annual awards process. Once again, the customer service is unmatched. I had used previous platforms where you only talk to a chat bot and couldn't ever meet with someone face to face but this is not the case with RQ\!
