Considered Both Products	SchoolAdmin RA Ryan Abramson Director of Admissions Chose SchoolAdmin SchoolAdmin is focused on the school and admissions users. Blackbaud products were born for finance and fund raising. As a result, their admissions and school products are step children and not capable of the on-the-fly customization and adaptations that admissions people … Incentivized Helpful? MC Megan Cornwall Associate Director of Admissions Chose SchoolAdmin We looked at moving from SchoolAdmin to another platform last year, but ultimately stayed with SchoolAdmin. While there are some pain points for us, it wasn't anything that other platforms would be able to solve well either, and the customer service SchoolAdmin provided was … Incentivized Helpful? WM Wesley McClure Director of Admissions Chose SchoolAdmin We compared a number of options in considering a new admissions software platform.

Verified User Administrator Chose SchoolAdmin Blackbaud's enrollment management product, OnBoard, was extremely clunky and did not support an online review process. The CRM was also not great.

Likelihood to Recommend	Finalsite SchoolAdmin has been great to work with and the advantages of the product definitely outweigh the disadvantages. With the frequent turnover in admissions offices, it is nice to have a product that is simple to use, easy to train on, and easy to learn quickly. Also, customer support has been great, and we really put them through their paces and they never complain. They also use their support team to help train you - not just give you a fish, but teach you to fish so you can problem solve on your own.

Pros	Finalsite The online application and checklist - because it is highly customizable, fairly intuitive, and quite effective for managing all the moving parts of our application process. The online enrollment checklist, forms, and contract - because of the level of customization, the level of professional appearance, the ease of tracking and managing students in the enrollment process, the integration it provides to our FACTS billing and payment system. The communications system - because of the possibilities for both internal and external communications are so vast, the ability to produce highly customized, personalized, and segmented emails, text messages, and/or physical letters, and the relative ease of use.

Cons	Finalsite Not as flexible as we sometimes need the features to be. Data and historical information is not terribly accurate, which means we cannot use it for reporting. Incentivized MC Megan Cornwall Associate Director of Admissions Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Finalsite Blackbaud's enrollment management product, OnBoard, was extremely clunky and did not support an online review process. The CRM was also not great. The only benefit of it was that it was a seamless experience, as Blackbaud is our academic software. The import/export from SchoolAdmin into/from Blackbaud has been no problem.
