inRESONANCE was chosen by my current school when it was a start-up and served the purpose for a new/small school quite well. The price was "right", and for a school of under 100 students/families at the time - with very simple fundraising needs, it certainly did the trick from my understanding. We use Generations in the Advancement department, but inRESONANCE is used for admissions, as well.

Over the past six months, I've run the full gamut of emotions/thoughts on inRESONANCE. The software is dated, so it is not intuitive if you've been in web-based tools in recent years. That said, I think it is perfectly suited for smaller, start-up organizations that need guidance. The support we receive is excellent and always timely.

We use inRESONANCE as the database system to hold all of our scholars. It tracks all pertinent information including initial recruitment applications, academic review and all contact information for each scholar. It addresses the problem of having a database that is streamlined, consistent, and can be used by every phase of our organization in the same way.

Well suited to having the ability to import information when there are large numbers of scholars to be updated, such as graduations or moving up a grade. On the other hand, the program is geared towards a school and we are not a school so we had to do a lot of tweaking for our purposes.
