I like this because it organizes and manages your bidders list, giving you flexibility to duplicate lists, and pull data from other bids. Saves time, versus having to enter the contacts over and over again.

SmartBidNet is very user-friendly. I was able to learn how to use it on my own, with the help of the tools section. Customer service is wonderful, very helpful and timely with their responses. Each section/tab is very straight-forward, simple yet useful.
