What do you like best about Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT?

BlackBaud is extremely user-friendly. It's intuitive, easy to use, and a great way to store massive amounts of data in a concise and clean manner. It's sleek, smart, and a great program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT?

I like to consider myself a pretty tech- savvy person, but some of the shortcuts weren't initially intuitive. Using CTL-L to save took me some getting used to, but once I got the hang of it, everything else was pretty easy. In addition, I do wish there was a way for the program to automatically log the user who enters the data so we can keep track, but there are manual ways to do that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT:

Easy to use - great product. Definitely a good choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is a way for us to conveniently track all of our applicants and see where they are in our application process. It allows us to log each of the components of the application process and time-stamp them. This allows us to stay organized throughout a very detail-oriented process.
