## Reviews

### "Nobody wants to answer RFPs, Responsive makes it easier" — 4.0/5

> **Hector** | *27 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: No one wants to answer RFPs; it is an outdated industry practice.&#10;&#10;Responsive makes this easier by providing a central repository for all RFP responses and enabling collaboration among team members, which improves productivity by allowing people from different teams to work on proposals in parallel.
> 
> **Cons**: The AI capabilities are still immature, and the generated answers always need to be reviewed, which is time-consuming and undermines the solution's productivity gains.
> 
> I think the solution has many areas for improvement, particularly in AI and library maintenance, but the core functionality is solid and delivers the key features needed by growing organizations.

### "Best Solution in the Industry to Me" — 5.0/5

> **Susan** | *16 April 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The speed in which I can import projects.&#10;The export to original upload format.&#10;The AI, the AI\!\!\!\!\!&#10;The wonderful responsive, accurate, helpful support team.&#10;The incredible staff, webinars, coffee chats, and community
> 
> **Cons**: When I find the hidden incapabiilties, contact the help team, and then realize that it is fact an incapability. For example, we can run one AI Draft per project; otherwise a staff member has to clone it to add an additional document.
> 
> I lovvvve Responsive\! There is zero comparison to the tool I had previously that literally kept me working through the night\!

### "Responsive Review" — 3.0/5

> **Hannah** | *24 March 2026* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It automates responses, and aids in seeing past responses. Helps track the progress of bids and sets reminders to meet deadlines.
> 
> **Cons**: The answers don't always pull in accurately for questions we have seen over and over again. Navigating questions can be difficult, or going back to finding an unanswered question is not straightforward.
> 
> Ok. Has some features that simplifies the RFP process, while other navigation features make it harder.

### "Director, Proposals" — 5.0/5

> **Nick** | *16 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Progress tracking is one at the top of the list. The amount of hours it saves our proposal managers on tracking the progress of a project is massive. That lone is worth the value. In addition, the accountability it holds with associates in reviewing their content. Without a system like Responsive's content library and review structure, our responses would not be where they are at today. Lastly, employee management - I oversee the proposal team and each morning I review a status on all projects to see where we are and having a dashboard like the Project view, executive dashboards, etc. it's extremely helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: Exporting into templates. My team spends a considerable amount of extra hours cleaning up the formatting when it doesn't export well or when we export into our template, but want to align with the clients RFP format - most times, it doesn't export that way, so the proposal managers spend countless hours cleaning this up. I have addressed this in the past. &#10;&#10;I would love it if there was a way we could have some sort of sequential author answering in the project. Today, we have multiple people that could contribute to one response. When one person is done, there is no way to track their progress, so what we have to do is create a manual process for tracking. It's extremely time consuming.
> 
> I love Responsive. It's a great tool and best on the market. We couldn't do our job the same way without it.

### "Responsive - the RFP lifesaver" — 5.0/5

> **Marcus** | *28 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Before leveraging responsive, our team would spend hours or days hunting through old spreadsheets and pestering subject matter experts for the same five answers just because the question wasn't worded exactly the same. Now, the AI handles that first pass for us, and it’s surprisingly accurate. It actually pulls the right context for our security questionnaires and RFPs, which has cut our initial drafting time down to almost nothing.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the collaboration with guest accounts can be a bit iffy if I need to involve someone who is not on the platform, I don't always know if they've received the question or reviewed it. Contrasting this with a google docs @ tag, where it's easier to see revisions or they can resolve the tag, I often resort to slack to double check.
> 
> On a daily basis, the platform actually feels like it was built for the people doing the work, not just the managers looking at the dashboard. &#10;It’s transformed our QA library from a messy fragmented and non contextual database into a resource we actually trust, which has made the day-to-day feel way more manageable and a resource we can trust.&#10;The AI is truly a life saver, I don't know what I'd do if my company ever looked to remove this tool.... Probably look for another job\!
