The library provides a way to assign different owners and keep individual Q\&A pairs updated in real. Access to our stock answers saves our users and SMEs hundreds of hours each quarter and affords them more time to devote to their primary job functions while spending less time on researching technical responses. > > **Cons**: RFPIO is great for small to moderate sized teams. For larger organizations who complete 20 or more RFPs per month with multiple RFP teams working at the same time, multiple, parallel instances of RFPIO may be needed to best suit those needs on a grand scale. > > Hundreds of hours saved in responding to questionnaires and RFPs. RFPIO offers very competitive cost savings over most of the larger RFP software providers. The same functionality at a fraction of the cost of the big guys. Customer support is top notch - all questions or requests for help are addressed within the same day (or within 24 hours at most). Great, direct support from the management team - no call centers, no outsourced product support. You get assistance from people who helped build the product. ----- ### "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. 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. ----- ### "Review of Responsive" — 3.0/5 > **Dante** | *19 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its all in one, I feel it covers what is required to have a repository of data around rfps, rfx, rfi and other stuff > > **Cons**: Filtering, search, it does not find relevant information, this could be that the data is not made available as expected > > Its ok, I feel it can be improved and make it more intuitive , faster and easier to use for all teams involved ----- ### "Want to speed your RFX answering process? Use Responsive\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sofía** | *20 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that it can use our Knowledge Base, Content Library and past projects to draft new answers or recycle past ones. I also love that it can draft and translate content in different languages. It is think it's very useful for project tracking, specially if you're working with different team members. If you're working against the clock, it's an incredibly useful and fast tool to answer RFXs. You can finish a large project in just a couple of hours. > > **Cons**: When I'm answering an RFX inside the Answering Page section, I wish I could Control + F my way through the app so that I could go back to previously mentioned answers and copy paste them into new questions because sometimes RFXs are repetitive. A command like that would be useful. > > I'm very happy with Responsive because it saves a lot of time and resources for my team and I. I feel like I can rely on it both for reusing past answers and for drafting new ones. Once you're aware of how the app works –because you do need some training, as with every other specialized tool–, it becomes very easy and dynamic to interact with. I would definitely recommend it to RFX teams who are looking for saving time. ----- ### "A Practical, Time‑Saving Tool for Modern RFP Teams" — 5.0/5 > **Johanny** | *16 April 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about Responsive was how intuitive and practical it was for real RFP work. The content library made it easy to reuse curated, trusted answers, collaboration was smooth across teams, and the automation genuinely saved time without taking control away. Overall, it reduced friction and made the process feel much more manageable. > > **Cons**: The platform could feel a bit heavy at times. Search and answer suggestions sometimes required a lot of tuning, and if the content wasn’t well‑maintained, the library could get cluttered quickly. Reporting and admin tasks also felt more complex than they needed to be, especially for day‑to‑day use. > > Overall, my experience with Responsive was positive. It made RFP responses more organized, collaborative, and efficient, especially when it came to reusing content and keeping teams aligned. While it required some upkeep to get the most value out of it, it ultimately helped reduce manual effort and made the process feel more controlled and scalable. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/425174/Responsive?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/425174/Responsive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
