Awardify: Your Innovative Awards Platform
When it comes to managing prestigious awards shows like the Business Excellence Awards or Builder of the Year, the process behind the scenes can be daunting. It involves coordinating submissions, ensuring fair judging, handling entry content, and managing communication between stakeholders. That’s where Awardify comes in. Designed to serve organizations like Chambers of Commerce and Home Builders Associations, Awardify is a comprehensive software platform that takes the complexity out of awards management, helping you run smooth, efficient, and impactful events.
A Platform Built for the Realities of Awards Management
Awardify was created with one clear goal in mind: to simplify the entire awards management lifecycle. From initial entry submissions to final judging, every feature of our platform is crafted to provide ease and efficiency. But we also understand that no two awards shows are exactly the same. Each client has its own specific needs, and as your awards program evolves, your software should too.
This is why Awardify is constantly improving and innovating, driven by feedback from the organizations we work with. We view our clients as partners and use their real-world experiences to guide our development efforts. Every feature update or new addition to Awardify reflects a direct response to client challenges and evolving industry demands.
Tailored Solutions: Responding to Client Needs
Our development roadmap is shaped by the unique requirements of the awards programs we support. One recent example comes from a client within the Home Building industry. Their judges needed to review submissions while visiting construction sites, often in locations with no internet access. To meet this challenge, we added the ability for judges to download entry content for offline use. Judges can now download both the detailed entry responses in PDF form and any images uploaded by the entrants. This flexibility means that even without an internet connection, judges can perform their duties effectively.
This feature has proven to be a game-changer for clients who need to maintain continuity in judging while working in diverse environments. It’s just one example of how we adapt Awardify to meet the specific workflow needs of different industries, from builders inspecting projects to professionals evaluating complex business proposals.
Enhancing User Experience: Entry Progress Status Bar
Another key feature that we’ve recently introduced is the Entry Progress Status Bar. As organizations running awards shows, our clients wanted better visibility into how their entrants were progressing with submissions. We listened, and now administrators have access to a simple, yet powerful tool to track entrant progress in real time.
The Entry Progress Status Bar shows what percentage of an entry has been completed, offering administrators a bird’s-eye view of their submission pool. But we didn’t stop there. Clicking into an individual entry allows administrators to drill down into specific details, highlighting which questions remain unanswered. This makes it easier for administrators to assist entrants who might need a nudge, while also keeping the entry process on track ahead of deadlines.
The result? Better managed submissions, reduced incomplete entries, and a more organized experience for both administrators and entrants.
Continuously Improving: The Awardify Advantage
At Awardify, our development cycle never stops. We believe that software should grow and evolve with your needs. What you see today is only the beginning. We take pride in our ability to respond quickly to feedback and are always on the lookout for ways to make your experience with Awardify even better. Whether it’s adding new features, optimizing existing ones, or expanding integration capabilities, our goal is to ensure Awardify remains the most user-friendly and adaptable awards management platform on the market.
For instance, in addition to the updates we’ve already mentioned, we’re working on several new features that will be rolling out in the coming months. These updates are aimed at enhancing the overall experience for both administrators and entrants. We won’t give away too much just yet, but our upcoming features include further streamlining the judge interface and adding even more automation tools to reduce manual effort during the submission and review processes.
