Considered Both Products	TargetX, from Liaison Verified User Anonymous Chose TargetX, from Liaison Given that it's an older solution and addresses a lot more use cases, there's a lot more bulk and technical debt in the solution. This may make it overwhelming for first-time users and administrators. The email builder though is truly par excellence. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	TargetX, from Liaison	Unifyed Student Information System
Likelihood to Recommend	TargetX is a great full-service suite for Colleges and Universities looking to implement a new CRM, or are wanting to migrate from a different CRM. TargetX works great for multiple departments, but will need to be somewhat modified to make sure each department has the data security they need. TargetX know enrollment, and does a good job putting together the pieces needed. Due to the way it is customized on Salesforce, it is very hard to use some 3rd party Salesforce AppExchange tools as they expect the data to be in a different model. Incentivized Timothy Hardin Salesforce Adminstrator Read full review	Unifyed SIS software has a fairly symbiotic relationship. While assessment solutions are engineered around creating assessments and administering those solutions to students, Unifyed SIS software acts as a repository for information, and some of that information is related to student behavior in the classroom.
