This also includes <strong>unlimited Users, unlimited Technical Support, and access to accept up to 500 applications to an open program for 365 days (at base pricing).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you choose to stop using ZoomGrants to administer programs, you can export your data and close your account, or you maintain your access to existing programs by continuing to renew your annual subscription.<\/p>\n<h3>Program\/RFP Fees<\/h3>\n<p>We call them &#8220;programs&#8221; or &#8220;RFPs&#8221;.
