GoldMine is currently being used by only the admissions department at our university. The university as a whole utilizes a different program that does not function as a Customer Relationship Management system. GoldMine allows our team to track and maintain all information with students we are recruiting and counselling as they make their decision for college. It allows us to set reminders to contact, see all contact history in one place, and see progress toward matriculation.
  • History - All items related to each individual are easily accessible in one spot
  • Succinct - All information pertaining to each student/client is available in one spot, or with very few clicks
  • Updates - GoldMine can be set to update as often as needed, which is especially useful when information is being migrated from another system
  • GoldMine itself can be a little hard to use if editing the information within the program is not enabled. This comes into play if the main information storage is another system that is migrated to GoldMine
  • Third party apps or software can be complicated to be moved into GoldMine history. It is possible, but requires some upkeep and maintenance.
  • GoldMine takes A LOT of expertise to set up. If set up incorrectly by a bad representative, then it can affect the overall usage of the program in significant ways. Make sure you ask the Goldmine rep several questions and get recommendations for the rep as well as the product.
We use GoldMine for customer (student) tracking toward college enrolment and it works perfectly for our scenario. We can track a student's process from before applying all the way through moving onto campus, no matter how long that process takes. GoldMine can log calls and messages in real time so that multiple users can see contact history immediately, which is largely beneficial for larger teams.
  • GoldMine has allowed our team of 15 to see immediately what impact we have on recruiting students - specifically we can track calls and messages
  • We can communicate more effectively and with more authority to students as we can be confident of what has been done for them in the past and immediately see what items they may have outstanding, with very few clicks (if any at all)
  • GoldMine allows our team to make changes to a student record in a user-friendly format and updates the record immediately. This ensures that incorrect information does not go out.
Our university still utilizes Banner, which requires us to have information stored there and migrate it to GoldMine twice per day. Banner is NOT user-friendly, but our set up makes it more robust than GoldMine. GoldMine makes information available with fewer clicks and puts it in a better format as well.

We use GoldMine to support undergraduate recruitment at Houghton College. It serves as our CRM. It is mostly used in the admission office although select others are able to access components of it including coaches and academic support staff. It allows us to keep a record of our interactions with prospective students from the point of inquiry to enrollment.
  • Customizable - can create new fields and tailor the experience to what you would like it to be (with a little experience, that is).
  • Inexpensive - affordable for a small institution to use.
  • Requires extensive on-campus support - while there is access to dedicated support-staff, for GoldMine to function well, you need staff both within the admission office as well as in IT to support it (rather than just relying on off-site support). Has it's advantages and disadvantages.
  • Steep learning curve - to become proficient at getting GoldMine to do its "fancier" features, it requires a fair deal of learning. There is OK documentation on there in both in terms of official manuals as well as user-created resources.
  • Clunky - requires a lot of hand-data entry (can use "third-party" tools like GoldBox but that also requires fairly advanced know-how to run successfully). Calling functionality is quirky; mass-emailing is buggy (does integrate with Constant Contact but only one-direction - can "download" data/feedback but not automatically upload email lists).
If you're on a tight budget and have dedicated staff that understand the needs of admission, then GoldMine might be a good choice. Otherwise, it feels a bit "old." Granted, that could be just the reviewer in question not being very proficient. Also, new releases require down-time and can take perhaps a half-day to a full-day of all staff being "out" of the system to make happen. For instance, there is a bug in the mass-emailing features in the 2013.1.0.298 where it crashes after sending bulk emails. Would require an update to address this.
  • Positive - Better customer service - if staff are appropriately trained in how to use it, it is helpful for knowing what kinds of communication someone has received and what information is still needed for a student to, say, complete an application.
  • Negative - extensive hand data-entry/lag-time between inquiry and first lead generation.
Honestly, comparing CRMs is in my "to-do" list since stepping into this role. I have not yet had the chance to do a full market analysis of various CRM offerings. I'm sure it stacks up nicely in the price column based on a very quick survey I did on other CRM options.
If there were a product that would mean less on-site support/maintenance with comparable or not much more cost, I would seriously consider switching. Furthermore, going to a more mobile, paper-less application process would tip the scales in the favor of a competitor. I'd also like something that integrates web forms so that data entry is more stream-lined as is response time.
