User Testimonials
	Blackbaud Tuition Management	TADS
Likelihood to Recommend	Blackbaud The way Blackbaud Tuition Management handles the charges and how accessible it is makes my job much easier. I love that parents can see the same view of their account as I have when entering/reviewing an account so that it doesn't sound foreign when I try to explain something to them.

Pros	Blackbaud Website is easy to navigate Customer service is very professional and helpful Multiple options for making payments and setting up accounts Incentivized Kim Norbeck Admissions Coordinator Read full review	VenturEd Solutions No answers on this topic
Cons	Blackbaud Divorced parent log in access Split family contract processes SC Sheila Crotwell Student Accounts Manager Read full review	VenturEd Solutions No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Blackbaud I use FACTS in my role at work, and my children's school uses Smart Tuition. I am more familiar with Smart Tuition as a parent, but it seems to be a good solution for the high school. Since we do the financial aid in-house at my school of employment, FACTS works better for us.

Return on Investment	Blackbaud Online access is key Multiple payment options are great Since there are so many payment options we receive funds faster SC Sheila Crotwell Student Accounts Manager Read full review	VenturEd Solutions No answers on this topic
