    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    Blackbaud K-12 is very similar. I feel like I would be trading one set of issues for another so it's kind of a wash. We are very much hooked into the Blackbaud website with our Google SSO, SmartTuition, and Schooldoc integrations. It would be difficult for us to transition. …

    11 years ago, Whipplehill was in our opinion the best in class and it continues to be that way. The only other product that I would consider stacking up against it would be Veracross.

    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    We made the decision to go with Blackbaud (WhippleHill at the time) back in 2008, at that time the landscape of available solutions was very different and this provided the best combination of features we wanted and ease of use.

    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    We were looking for a new content management system and our priority was having a responsive design. While we looked at other products, ultimately Blackbaud K-12 “ON” Solutions was the right decision for us because the website would be responsive AND we would have the ability …

    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    Our decision was made the first year WhippleHill came out with the first of the "ON" products. We compared them to Silverlight, Blackbaud NetClassroom/Campus and Finalsite. At the time, none of the competitors offered a responsive design interface and website, had no LMS at …

    We originally had Blackboard but it did not bring everything together in one place and frustrated parents, particularly those with more than one child. The high school not as much as the younger divisions. It was not setup in a way that teachers of younger kids could use. It …

    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    Senior Systems products were evaluated. Blackbaud was not specifically chosen, our school is a legacy Whipplehill school and we decided to continue with Blackbaud. This decision was due to the length of time we were with WH and our investment in the software both economically …

    We consistently choose to stay with Blackbaud because--very simply--they provide the best path to data consistency and accuracy while giving us access to software focused on the needs of schools.

    Blackbaud is much cleaner visually and has more integration...much more helpful to the entire school. And..,customer service has been exceptional! When we have questions we either received an answer immediately or, if more complicated, a time line formwhen we can expect and …

    While I wasn't a part of the organization when the decision was made between Blackbaud and Finalsite, I know that we went with BB because we were promised a personalized experience where our transition would be fully supported by the team at BB on our external and internal …

    Chose Blackbaud Education Management Solutions
    Blackbaud with its pros and cons is similar to Veracross. Only major negative for Blackbaud is scalability vs Veracross. In terms of LMS, Blackbaud and also Veracross are worse than schoology. They both focus on the Admin/SIS/tution side of it and fall short on the LMS side of …
