If you're working with a lot of clients and are working in one field Norada is perfect. I found it difficult to configure it to work precisely as I want to for a multi-field company that offers two very different products whose sales teams should never meet, yet know about each other.

I would recommend Slate, by Technolutions for any higher education institution, big or small. Though there is a higher cost associated with Slate than most other options, it's well worth the price. The level of detail that you're able to gather, maintain, and query on within your student data is far beyond anything I've experienced with other systems. These insights help you pinpoint areas for action and improvement so that you can pivot when necessary, helping you reach your enrollment goals quicker and more efficiently.

Support Rating
Norada
I have received fast answers to any questions I have ever had. The support staff knows how to work with less tech-literate people and is patient enough to explain. Even if my issue was not solvable the support staff gave me another way to get the job done.

While I do wish they had actual representatives that we able to come to you for trainings for implementation and new users, I understand that a big draw is the money that is saved by instead investing in knowledgebase, which is it's online tutorials for different functions of Slate.

We had been on Recruitment Plus- it has been sunsetted, so we were forced to move. I also looked at Fire Engine Red. Slate seemed far and away the most robust CRM/Admissions solution.
