SchoolAdmin is focused on the school and admissions users. Blackbaud products were born for finance and fund raising. As a result, their admissions and school products are step children and not capable of the on-the-fly customization and adaptations that admissions people …

We looked at moving from SchoolAdmin to another platform last year, but ultimately stayed with SchoolAdmin. While there are some pain points for us, it wasn't anything that other platforms would be able to solve well either, and the customer service SchoolAdmin provided was …

Likelihood to Recommend
I would recommend SchoolAdmin for independent school admissions offices. I am not familiar with its use in other settings. It is most useful for offices who are interested in a paperless review process and targeted communications. They have improved their payment collection processes and integration with all billing is possible. We have not yet fully explored this avenue.

Return on Investment
  • SchoolAdmin has helped streamline our admissions and enrollment processes significantly, resulting in a better customer experience.
  • It has helped us reduce paper use, moving from sizable hard copy information packets, applications, and contracts, to having almost everything online and digital. This reduces waste, contributes to environmental well-being, and significantly reduces the need for physical storage and archival space.
  • The system has helped improve accuracy and timeliness in data collection, transmission, and communication, allowing our staff to dedicate more time to relational work and less on administrative busywork.
