Finalsite Website with Blackbaud SIS

Hello!  Does anyone use Finalsite as their forward facing website but still use all the systems and functionality of BB?  If so, I would LOVE to talk with you!

  • I'm very interested in this topic, also, so please loop me in!  Because the Finalsite website does not integrate with the Blackbaud enrollment management platform, we need to link the admissions forms on the frontend to the database on the backend in such as way that the prospective applicant is totally unaware they're being taken away from Finalsite and placed into Blackbaud when they click on the Apply Today button.  It needs to be a seamless, invisible, and totally unnoticeable transition. If anyone has accomplished this, I'd love to know how!  
  • Following. We Just switched from Senior Systems to Blackbaud, and we will still use Finalsite. Since the transition, Finalsite cannot get their mapping correct. We currently show relationships on Finalsite, and for some reason each name is showing two times. They also can't get the State to pull from addresses, I personally checked every address and BB contains the State for every student/parent that has an address. If anyone has any tips on the integration and mapping process, please reach out!
