### "Good quality financial software"

February 21, 2017

Our organization has used this for many years now. Integrates well with our fundraising software, the Raiser's Edge.

### "Blackbaud Works Efficiently"

January 10, 2018

5.0

Overall Blackbaud stores all your information and makes your accounting transparent and easy to input.

Pros

Blackbaud is a very clear and straightforward software which helps track all donations, and donors and dates and amounts in which the last donations where made. It can also pull reports depending on different queries which can be great for board meetings and financial reveiws.

Cons

Blackbaud Financial Edge's only downfall is the complication on which to easily pull a querie. For new users or users that don't use the software on a regular basis to pull reports it can be tricky to pull new queries and can occassionally even delete or change previous queries.

4.0

Pros

I like the ease of logging in. I also like the clean looking interface, and am looking forward to more options to come.

### "Financial Edge Review"

February 24, 2016

3.5

Pros

I like the dashboard feature the best. It allows me to see our current financials without running any reports or looking through various accounts.

Cons

I can't seem to get certain reports to work. (941, 1099, etc.)

### "A capable program, although a bit clunky"

August 11, 2016

3.5

Pros

I like that it has many capabilities, and you are able to add products on to it.

Cons

I wish that it was a bit more intuitive- it seems like there is a lot of hunting and pecking to find what you are looking for.

### "Great product for comprehensive school operations"

October 28, 2014

4.0

Pros

The unified database between FE and EE, and all of the submodules, is vital to our operation. The unified SIS is a strong point.

There are some processes that are a bit complex and could be simplified.

### "Great Option for FE Users"

April 2, 2018

4.0

Good option for RE users

Not the easiest to learn, but this is more a function of Financial Edge overall, and not exclusive to NXT
