With Traditional Prize Management

  • Multiple systems are inevitable.

    Most online prize management solutions begin and end with entry collection. Tracking, judging and logistics must be handled by hand, via email or on spreadsheets.

  • Look and feel is random.

    Many prize solutions force entrants to a seemingly unconnected site to upload their materials. This confuses users – and even costs associations revenue when submissions are abandoned.

  • Information is scattershot.

    Who’s started an entry? Who’s completed one? Which judges are finished? Which haven’t started? Without real-time reporting and analytics, it’s almost impossible to tell. And if you’re not informed, you can’t make informed decisions.

With OpenWater Competition Software

  • One system is all you need.

    With OpenWater Competitions, all tasks – by entrants, judges, chairs and administrators – are handled in one unified, fully integrated solution.

  • Branding is consistent.

    When you use OpenWater Competitions, our team creates a custom-branded upload portal that matches your existing website and visual identity. Users will know they’re in a place they can trust.

  • You’re always in the know.

    OpenWater Competitions’ advanced analytics capabilities eliminate confusion and simplify internal and external communication. Key reminders are sent automatically, and it’s easy to tell the status of any action item
