Overall Satisfaction with Technolutions Slate

Our company recently switched to [Technolutions] Slate in the last 3 years, and it has solved so many of our admissions problems. Having access to a portal that applicants can come back to and see clearly laid out what they are missing from their application file has allowed our admissions team to have better conversion rate of leads to applicants and applicants to admitted students. It's easy to use interface really made the learning curve a lot easier to manage.

Pros

  • Customer Support
  • Guided tutorials found in knowledgebase
  • Data Management
  • Functionality

Cons

  • Additional customization would ne nice
  • Constant enhancements
  • Wish there was more put into emailing and campaigns
  • Decreased workload for employees
  • Accurate data tracking
  • Excellent reporting features
We chose Slate because it was customizable, provided accurate CRM data tracking and management, and was affordable. The software itself was updated and intuitive, which is something our previous CRM lacked. It had better reporting systems, easy set up and implementation across our institution, and the ability for applicants to monitor their own progress.

Would you buy Slate for Admissions again?

Yes

It's incredibly usable and easy to figure out. It's modern and does exactly what we need for it to do.
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.
Overall, [Technolutions] Slate has been an incredible CRM for our institution. It was easy to learn, and it does its job well. The ability for students to log back into a portal and see their application digitally has saved our staff a lot of time and effort. Previously, we had a web based application that didn't allow for applicants to be actively engaged in their application files and [Technolutions] Slate solved a real problem for us. It's affordable, intuitive and effective.
