ZoomGrants Review, Pricing & Features for Businesses | SoftwareAdviser.ai

The functionality was minimum.

When re-setting your password they email it to you in cleartext. see plaintextoffenders dot com for why that is a huge problem. Also, the form itself didn't even work. You couldn't click into the fields in either chrome or firefox.

Absolutely terrible interface, slow servers, timeouts, and generally unusable. Errors when submitting related to account profile setup, but the errors appear in the grant application itself. Serverside postbacks on each field that take 2-3 minutes to resolve. Do not reccommend.

As a small business owner we were fortunate to get federal grant money to help get us through this difficult time. That was fantastic but the grant was issued through ZoomGrants and that aspect was far from fantastic. The site was nearly impossible to log in to most of the time. You could literally type in your username and password and go for a jog around the block. By the time you got back your account would just be opening up. So the servers are extremely slow. Also, an issue I had was E-signing a document. After I submitted it I immediately realized I needed to correct an error. There was no way to do this I understand that the traffic volume was large due to a larger number of grants being issued BUT there is no excuse for how pathetically whimpy the current platform is. It feels like the whole thing is running off a single server stuffed in a closet somewhere. Without a doubt this is the worst online experience I have ever dealt with.

I applied for a grant offered for Nevada small business and was directed to a zoom website. I thought it was a scam at first and it was a new way for government officials to cover their tracks for the money they steal. I was right after months of waiting for my app. to be approved. I signed onto zoom and it said they had a new website and my app. had been moved there . I signed onto the new website and it said I didn't have an app. nothing puff gone and I bet no-one got any money form that grant except the govt.
