    @Jane Miller It depends on what you are trying to do. We have it and are looking to switch to a data warehouse and Power BI because of limitations. There are also some data points that are not available in Insight Designer: Memberships, Volunteer, Events.

    @Kisha Baker Thank you, Kisha. One thing we need is the ability to report on pledge installments due during our fiscal year, via the NXT Dashboard Reports.

    @Kisha Baker eSimpleIT (Blackbaud partner) has a Data Warehouse solution that is able to house any and all RE NXT data and easily connect to Power BI. Would love to connect. If you would like to, please email me at: joel@esimpleit.com.

    @Jane Miller consider what you are trying to accomplish with it. There are limitations such as BB has not included the use of Attributes/Custom Fields which is a very big piece at my current org as well as my last org. Soft credits are being introduced but not in a manner that is 100% useful.

    Start with what are you trying to report on and work through what is currently available in reporting and in databaseview.
