Uncommon Giving is incomplete

Uncommon Giving is intuitive but lacks power. When you look at even the positive Capterra reviews, you’ll see comments about how it lacks “sophisticated reporting.”^¹

The kicker? Uncommon Giving isn’t that much more intuitive than Submittable.

When you look at ease of use scores on Capterra,^² Submittable comes out on top among Uncommon

Giving’s CSR competitors with a 4.6/5 based on 165 reviews.

Uncommon Giving is the only CSR software to rank higher with a 5/5 ease of use score based on only 17 reviews.

What you gain in ease of use with Uncommon Giving is dragged down by an incomplete feature set. It’s not a platform that can help you grow. Submittable is, with our robust CSR feature set and expert customer success teams.
