Super happy with move

Professional and positive. The product has allowed our two areas to work together (marketing and enrolment) rather than independently.

PROS

Digistorm is very professional to work with. It combined several other systems we used into one. Tracking and reporting features are easy to use and helpful for our management team. The service side of digistorm is outstanding. We receive a reply the same day (sometimes the same hour) as a request is submitted. The service centre also takes on board suggestions and is always looking for ways to accommodate needs. Training is thorough. We wouldn't go back to our old ways!

CONS

A few features are coming that we are looking forward to. Interview bookings that merge with the calendar and automated responses. These features are the only ones that we would like and they are being worked on. Segmenting and reports are sometimes tricky to set up but once established, easy to duplicate and the service centre also willing to help.

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

We didn't look at others. Digistorm was recommended by PCSchool.

Reasons for switching to Digistorm Funnel

Digistorm's Funnel catered for the enrolment process and focused on the student as the lead. It allowed us to merge our two processes of enrolment and marketing together.

Vendor Response

Hi Suzanne, Thank you for your fantastic review! Great to hear the switch to Digistorm Funnel has helped streamline processes for you and your team at St. Paul's! We're excited for these new releases too - they should add a ton of value for your future students and making your team's life easier! The Digistorm Team

Digistorm - Prospect management, conversion and enrolment targets have never been so easy to manage

Our CRM is not savvy when it come to prospect management - we needed a solution - Funnel provided us the perfect product. It allows us to manage events and coupled with the Online application we have a full picture of what our future students look like. We can see where they are applying from geographically and automate communications. It has revolutionised our business allowing us for the first time to have people apply online and let us track all interactions we have with prospects. Our applications have increased by 50% in the first 12 months of using the products.

PROS

Ease of use, easy to integrate in to our website, and CRM. Considers Customer Experience and solutions are customer centric.

CONS

Like any product continual improvement is key, what may be missing or lacking is easily discussed to find work arounds or to schedule in upgrades. Ability to add to more than one waitlist is the biggest challenge we have faced and that is very minor.

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

There were a few different solutions I looked at, none were holistic from inquiry to application and conversion to enrolment.

Vendor Response

Hi Leah, Thank you so much for writing such an excellent review of Funnel. It was so exciting to read that you've increased your applications within the first 12 months of implementing Funnel - what a great result! - The Digistorm Team

Great benefits with Digistorm

Our Account Executive has been excellent so support has been brilliant. It makes such a difference having someone at Digistorm who can help train us well and support us with technical issues. The product has been great and is providing the ability for us to see all our enrolment data in one place. We are also able to provide a streamline of procedures for our enrolment processes which allow us to deliver improved service to our future families.

PROS

Funnel has allowed us to streamline our enrolment process and track the student enrolment journey. Our team can all see what is happening across our enrolments. We are not missing information on our potential customers and communicating with them is excellent.

CONS

We would really like to have an integrated interview booking system within the software. Sometimes we get duplicate leads. They are easily merged but it is an annoying issue (largely a result of parents entering data differently)

Vendor Response

Dear Trish, Thank you for taking the time to review Funnel! It's fantastic to see your experience has been so positive. We're working on some exciting updates that should help you with bookings - thank you for that feedback! The Digistorm Team

Great tool that enhances the enrolment process

Couldn't live (or, at least, work effectively) without it!

PROS

Using Funnel has really helped us to streamline and enhance our enrolments process. Our service to prospective families has improved significantly and we are able to manage each stage of the pipeline far more effectively than in the past.

CONS

The system is constantly being developed and upgraded - it's great how Digistorm take on client feedback and implement enhancements.

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

Funnel is designed specifically for the education industry so it was a no brainer. We also had an existing relationship with the Digistorm team through our use of other products so we knew that the customer service would be outstanding and that we could trust them.

Fantastic Product

Fantastic product. User training and configuration of the system has been one of the easiest processes.

PROS

The way in which this product delivers a clean, clear and concise form and CRM to users and administrators is excellent. I've worked with many CRMs and many fail in delivering either for the user or the administrator (back-end) - Digistorm delivers for both! Their UAT platform is the best I've ever worked with, and Digistorm support is timely and of good quality.

CONS

As with most (good) products there is a lengthy development list, which sometimes can mean we have to wait longer than hoped for improvements. That said we know we're listened too and things will be delivered.

Reasons for switching to Digistorm Funnel

The WordPress form (plugin) was not delivering the visibility or richness of data that we require.

The best pound for pound CRM we've found for schools!

In a word, 'excellent'. There are occasional challenges - there are with any project, especially IT - but for a CRM implementation into an environment as nuanced as a School, Digistorm Funnel is a very, very good product with - as mentioned in 'likes' very strong support. ROI for a well set-up, well managed and well used implementation can be achieved within a year, in our experience. For anyone who's run an IT project, they'll know that's a rare thing!

PROS

Tailored, out of the box, to meet the requirements of most schools, with relatively easy customisation making quick deployments and early benefits realisation far easier than some larger, and sometimes un-necessarily complex, CRM. A good range of customisation capabilities, with excellent pre and post sales support adding to the exceptional price point/value for money.

CONS

There is nothing we don't like about this software. We do recommend that any school considering the platform bears in mind that Digistorm Funnel is very deliberately designed to meet a very reasonable, and attainable price point, with comparatively fast out of the box deployment. The slight downside of that is some limitations to the customisation/configurability of the product. We see this is a more than reasonable balance point - it's an exceptional product all round. Just something to be aware of and discuss closely with the exceptional pre-sales team before pressing the final 'go' button!

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

There are two drivers when it comes to choosing Digistorm, as we see it; 1. Industry fit - It is very hard to justify taking, and then customising, a more mainstream product over Digistorm, given how well Funnel wraps around typical school requirements at such a strong price point. Going mainstream and then customising is also highly likely to become a more and more complex/tailored implementation over time, in our opinion. 2. Within the School specific market, there are one or two excellent, but larger and more complex alternatives, that can fit certain requirements very well. Beyond that and at this combination of feature-set and price point, Digistorm stands well apart from our experience.

Hi Paul, Thank you for sharing your experience with Funnel - we love working with you to set your schools up for success! The Digistorm team

Excellent Product and Great Customer Service

We have been using Funnel and Enrol for two years now and don't know how we managed without it. We are still learning wonderful new things to do and love the fact that Digistorm listen to us when we make suggestions and always try to accommodate our needs. They seem to be constantly looking at ways to improve the software and send us updates as soon as they are released.

PROS

Easy to use and navigate and to share with colleagues at work. Easy to tailor to our own needs and talks to our own database. Extremely high level of customer service with replies almost immediately. Funnel and Enrol have made our lives so much easier and allowed us to engage with our potential families in a more direct way.

CONS

Some actions need to be entered both in Funnel and our database once the application is imported, however, this is such a minor problem and the benefits far outweigh the small amount of time taken to do this.

Hi Jane, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're so glad to hear about the excellent results that Funnel has achieved for PLC Perth. - The Digistorm Team

This software is a must for any school!

Amazing! I recommend Digistorm to colleagues at universities and grade schools. This software is a game-changer. Years ago when I came across Digistorm it literally checked every box I was looking for from function to pricing.

PROS

Ease of use. The product is not overly complex and is tailored for the school setting. The customer service they offer is truly invaluable! My client manager (Jamie) never misses a beat and is always ready to help.

CONS

As the system is evolving they are adding new features daily. The great thing is you can put in a help ticket with your client manager and issues are reviewed. I have watched many of my requests come to fruition on the software.

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

Ease of use, customizable, price, client support, and lead management.

Reasons for switching to Digistorm Funnel

Digistorm offered a better design and ease of use.

Flexible and simple

Funnel has allowed us to proactively target our school's prospective admissions in a simple and personalised way. Over the last few years, it has allowed us to not only increase our admissions but also have them commit much earlier than in the past.

PROS

The best thing about Funnel is its flexibility. It can be configured to work with the goals and processes of any organisation managing admissions. The support is second to none as well.

CONS

There are some aspects of the software that are very good, but with a few extra features would make it exceptional. However, the team at Digistorm have always been extremely responsive to feedback and suggestions and I am confident that the features that would make this software 11/10 are in the pipeline.

PROS

The team are super responsive, generous with their time and fabulous to work with. The platform has helped improve conversion rate from enquiry - enrolment quite dramatically. CRM is seamless, uX fabulous etc etc.

CONS

There is nothing I dislike about Digistorm.

Reason for choosing Digistorm Funnel

Better uX, more responsive team, better suited to our business needs than competitor.

Funnel Review

It has allowed us to better manage our enrolment pipeline. For a busy department that receives lots of phone calls and emails, being able to manage all lead enquiries through Funnel means nothing gets missed and the follow-up process is now a lot more efficient.

PROS

A great way to be able to track and manage leads. Easy to use and understand. Very helpful in being able to see lead stages at a glance as well as create segmentation for different business areas for quick assessment and review.

CONS

Have had some trouble with enquiries doubling up and not merging, but this is being attended to and rectified.

PROS

Choosing Funnel for tracking our leads has been the best decision for our school. Funnel is a first class CRM and has consistently proven it's value to efficiently manage and market to our database.
