Impressive flexibility

What are the best aspects of this product?

OpenWater has impressive flexibility since we can fully personalize it using our own HTML and CSS codes. It also solves many of our pains in managing an awards competition for construction intern scholarships. We do not need to handle dozens of different WordPress tools for the competition anymore, such as integrations for voting polls, management for multimedia elements, tedious manual upkeeps, delays when displaying entry contents, etc. The judging system has also become more efficient for us since we do not need to depend on too much survey and excel data. OpenWater has made it easier for our judges to make their verdicts in the competition. On a side note, OpenWater is also smooth to implement, especially that a team of professional support has gone with us through the process. These tech support specialists always answer our dozens of queries efficiently until today.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

There are minor issues in OpenWater that should be addressed or improved, but nothing is big enough to affect the efficiency of its functions. Say, its UI looks similar regardless of the type of user using the platform, such as applicant, voter or judge. This makes the platform somehow confusing for them. Other than these concerns, OpenWater works well for our unique competition process. We intricately fuse traditional scholarship application with a weekly popular voting system, but the tool still satisfies our demands.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

OpenWater makes it smooth for us to set everything up using HTML and CSS coding. Then, we can seamlessly gather different entries from applicants, regardless of these being in write-ups, images, or videos. In addition, it is easier to share entries on a public profile, and it’s complemented with an efficient management system for contest votes. OpenWater also has a convenient panel for judges to use.
