“Instrumentl saves us time, reminds us of deadlines and I can share the information with my peers. Other databases we’ve used don't give us detailed information about the organization, they just give us general information about the funder, but no deadlines, and we don't have a way to save searches, but Instrumentl provides a great way to do so.”
