pleased with the response and attention we get from them. At a recent =
retreat for their employees, they brought in some of their school =
website leaders to get feedback first hand. The questions to the panel =
included those that were a risk to ask, such as "What could we be doing =
better?" and "Have we disappointed you recently and how?".

I'm happy to be using a website company that is asking those questions =

ideas, the time and the money, (and Silverpoint is a VERY reasonable =
option as far as cost) I'm confident that Silverpoint will be able to =
meet our needs.

Stewart:
We are a WhippleHill customer and have been for over 5 years now.=20
Connie does a great job in her email of summarizing a lot of what I like
about WhippleHill as a Content Management firm, but the greatest thing
about WhippleHill is that they listen to their customers and want their
products to best meet Independent School's needs. All that they have
done, how all their pieces fit together in to a seemless portal for
constituents, their tech support and R&D focus (the numbers compared to
the other 2 companies are staggering for number of support and R&D), and
the partnerships they are building with other companies to extend
functionality (college counseling, emergency contact, etc.) have shown a
commitment to Independent Schools rare nowadays from companies.=20
WhippleHill has been instrumental in improving our overall school
communications a hundred fold or more and are now a key partner in what
we are doing as a school.
An email does not do this justice, so if you would like to talk more,
would love to spend some time talking and answering questions. Just let
me know.
