Envoy Visitors would suit most office buildings and locations. It will easily cater to small, medium, and large enterprises. It is multi-faceted and very flexible to cope with any amount of people's data and is excellent for any companies wishing to capture the numbers of people entering and leaving their buildings. Its reporting capabilities are especially useful for operational and maintenance management.

A good, and constantly improving solution for private schools. I don't know that a lot of its functionality would be well suited to public schools, but maybe? The integration with other Blackbaud software is a huge plus for us, as we have several of their other products including their flagship Raiser's Edge. Smaller schools may not need the sophistication of Blackbaud solutions, and it is not an inexpensive option.

Not being able to customize displays, for example, Grading tab - we just finished 1st semester and teachers could only see the current quarter but not the 1st one which is still part of the first semester. Lack of customization in assessments.
Scheduling- even though re-running generating schedules, we're still getting a high number of unscheduled students. Lack of being able to limit the number of scheduled classes in a row for teachers.

It is a solid product. We have some issues with the capabilities of the website building components and the out dated technology behind its communications software but overall Blackbaud Education Management Software services to combine numerous functions into one product.

Easy to Setup. Organizations benefit from a simple onboarding procedure. Feature richness. Provides guest pre-registration, badge printing, and security warnings. Customizability Options for customizing the experience include branding, processes, and compliance needs. Integrations. Compatible with other technologies such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, and access control systems. I like it lot.
Blackbaud EMS is very usable from my perspective. I am a power user and get lots of valuable functionality. It is, however, a complex system. Sometimes necessarily complex to accommodate flexibility for diverse customer needs. Some complexity seems unnecessary and/or hold-over functionality from earlier versions; nice to see this type being evolved away from over time. It is valuable to receive regular updates to the system along with good release notes of what changed and notices of significant changes in advance.

The system is very easy to use and intuitive so did not need to contact support on any occasion. Even when there was a major overhaul to the user interface, the reference and help docs assisted with finding features and functions. Overall due to the lack of needing to actually contact a support representative has given this application a high overall support score.

Decent support however the chat feature can take a great amount of time out of the workday. If for instance you are waiting for someone to respond in the chat and there is a fire drill, if you are not responding within a few minutes, you are disconnected and have to start all over again. It would be great if you could submit your problem and then whoever has the most experience, can respond. The training in the Blackbaud University is good but also time-consuming - a 3 hr training in the middle of a workday is a lot to ask. I like the 90-minute sessions. It would also be great to offer a shorter webinar to update on any changes implemented. Other than the email I subscribed to, there is no information on how these updates actually work.

I would imagine that Envoy has a very user-friendly and streamlined process for the visitor registration office. After the pandemic, solutions like this weren’t really in place. Now that the hybrid workforce is something of the foreseeable future, we were able to onboard with Envoy very quickly and it has cemented itself as an application of usage within our stack.

Blackbaud K-12 is very similar. I feel like I would be trading one set of issues for another so it's kind of a wash. We are very much hooked into the Blackbaud website with our Google SSO, SmartTuition, and Schooldoc integrations. It would be difficult for us to transition. That is the main reason I haven't really entertained other web firms.

Because we are a non-profit, every visitor has the potential of being a donor or volunteer. Before we had this system we didn't have an easy way to follow-up or even capture information.
We create technology that helps the homeless communities, with that people have an expectation that we are up to date on technology. Envoy looks and feels like us.

Negative - The rollout is brutal. Blackbaud said it could happen in 6 months, but that is definitely not a reality. It will take well over a year, and one complete school cycle to actually integrate everything correctly.
Positive - The amount of time saved in data processing has allowed our office to become more involved in other areas of the school.
Positive - The ease of having everything in [one] place, from inquiry to application to contracts and course registration, has been a HUGE benefit to our applicants and their families.
