What do you like best about Jenzabar One?

I like that the whole campus from Admissions to Alumni relations can use the same DBMS without cumbersome integrations. Every department can have its own module and access rules can be modified to prevent tampering. The DMS has some impressive features such as ability to schedule communications with students or alumni, catalog management, even workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jenzabar One?

Very outdated and clunky look. Jenzabar One would be difficult to learn for someone new. Its interface is far from user friendly. Any reporting has to be done separately through Infomaker and will require additional training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jenzabar One:

The product seems to look outdated but it is ultimately heading in the right direction. Jenzabar One is about to move to the cloud so that's exciting. Expect some confusion while your employees try to learn how to use the software; it can be quite a steep learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Jenzabar One for data storing and management in our university. I contains modules for every vital area of a higher learning institution. I personally used the registration and advising module, dealing mostly with student records. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

J1 Web is the best feature we are looking forward too. Being able to use EX features in a cloud (online) environment is key. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Training to learn how to get all the information is time consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

Benefits are the ability to dissect data and manage student life functions. I’ve found more time in the year due to building reports once and reusing being able to reuse them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jenzabar One?

It is a fairly straightforward student management system once you find the functionalities you need. Once you understand what EX "does" as a program and the functions executed by different portals, it become a fairly logical program to use. It also allows you to look up different areas of needed information all within the same program, which helps when you are aiding students or faculty on the phone or need to find quick answers to questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jenzabar One?

The user interface is incredibly cumbersome to the point of being useless. It is not obvious how to find the functionality portals that you need because they are buried in a list, and once you've found the functionality you need, there are hidden "quirks" of the functionality portals that are not obvious and affect your ability to use the tool. The software is capable of interfacing with a web-based portal, but the communication between programs is unilateral and not the most useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jenzabar One:

It's cheap and manages students but be prepared for a massive learning curve and some very odd programming choices when it comes to using functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a student management software to manage our student enrollment, billing, etc. It's much more efficient than using index cards to keep track of students, and it brought our technology offerings into the 1990's, at the very minimum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jenzabar One?

I don't like very much about this system at all. The university I work for paid for the "vanilla" version and let me tell you, that was being too kind. We are currently upgrading in the next year or so but currently this system is so rudimentary and basic that you can barely call it innovative software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jenzabar One?

The features are so limited and take so much time to design with the interface. Integration of other systems requires labor hours and a new script to be written to send over a simple y/n trigger for a function. It takes SO many clicks to get where you need to go. Some pages don't have many interactive features and it's like using windows 98 without updating it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jenzabar One:

I would consider something else. Blackboard.... Banner.... Salesforce CRM even. Not this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

It does house our data but it is just so outdated that I'm surprised it has taken this long to upgrade it. As a younger staff member, I'm often frustrated with the lack of user-friendliness and students often complain about how terrible it is. I've used 4 different SIS programs in my career and this is by far the worst. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jenzabar One?

I use Jenzabar EX for my daily operations as a college administrator. It is pretty easy to use and the functions and keys are pretty self-explanatory. The company has been great with detailed training when we pay for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jenzabar One?

It's not easy to know exactly where to look in the system for a given piece of data or to know where tables point to in the ERP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

This is a lot more user-friendly than Jenzabar CX (which I used at a previous employer), and the menus are easier to understand than Ellucian Banner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jenzabar One?

Easy to lookup student records and to pull data for use in reports and managing a database, get's the job done, but not much else beyond the basics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jenzabar One?

Very outdated interface when compared to similar offerings available on the market, beginning to phase out the system to switch to a new, more cost efficient and more relevant option that better fits the organization's needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jenzabar One:

Weigh your options and needs for your institution, if you need the basics and a simple interface that is rather easy to implement, perhaps it is the right option for your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jenzabar One solving and how is that benefiting you?

Used to manage prospective and current student database for the university, to keep track of basic information, transcript and interaction data, communications and outreach data and demographic information. Also used to pull information for year to date reports and territory analyses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
