AMS vs. award management software — an honest, side-by-side look at awards, board nominations, grants & abstracts.
AMS vs. award management software — an honest, side-by-side look at awards, board nominations, grants & abstracts.
Your AMS is the backbone of your association — membership, dues, events, engagement. It's doing its job.
But awards, board nominations, grants, and abstract review were never its job. The AMS form does its one job — it collects submissions. Everything after that is yours: attachments pulled one by one, PDFs emailed to judges, scores gathered in spreadsheets, results reconciled by hand. And nothing carried forward to next year.
The short version: a form collects. A program runs. This session is an honest side-by-side of the two — and how they work in conjunction, each doing the job it was built for.
1: How associations run awards through their AMS today — and the issues it creates
2: What purpose-built award management software does, and the benefits it delivers
3: Better together: members sign in via AMS single sign-on, and program data flows back for engagement scoring
The all-in-one platform for managing scholarships, grants and awards programs.
