Hi Aja,
We recently (about a year ago) switched to using
WizeHive to manage several grant and application processes we run here, and I’ve been quite pleased with it. It’s a cloud-based system and they offer unlimited file storage. Individual upload fields can take files up to
2GB in size and you can have as many of those fields as you need in a given application, so far as I can tell.
I’ve received plenty of positive feedback from both applicants and reviewers since we implemented it and as an administrator I find it also very easy to use.
They offer a lot of functionality insofar as downloading applications, designing reports and exporting data – including across application forms, so you can compare trends over years – and sharing selected data with individual reviewers. I have also found
their customer support to be very good.
If you want to discuss further, you can email me here at

All best,
Amy

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] [External] online submission process?
Hello everyone!
My current internship involves researching the feasibility of moving our awards nomination submission process to an online format. Basically, this program gets submissions from authors, museums, and organizations from all over the country (in the form of
big heavy binders of info being shipped to us) nominating their project for an award. It would be less trouble and paper if we could set up an online submission process.
Do you know of any similar projects like this? What were the problems and benefits? Do you have experience with third party hosting sites for large files? Let me know! Thank you!
Aja
