We use WhippleHill for all of these functions minus scheduling and are
extremely happy. We've also found our parent body is extremely happy
and are wanting more. Right now we use WinSchool as a scheduling
program but will begin investigating Class A very soon. We also use
Data Shuttle to tie WhippleHill and Raiser's Edge together. Works like
a charm and has increased our ability to communicate while decreasing
our costs.
Since we have Blackbaud on campus also, it is an interesting comparison
in companies. WhippleHill is interested in what their customers,
schools, think and want while Blackbaud could care less. In fact,
WhippleHill just released an upgrade that had 2 requests that we had
made in the past 3 to 4 months. Blackbaud on the other hand gives lip
service to requests and never follow through.
Would be interested in talking to you more if you would like.
