No incentive was offered I like Financial Edge NXT and I couldn’t imagine doing my job without it! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I like that this software is for finance and accounting professionals. It has helped me to perform the daily functions of my job with limited interruptions. #### Cons I haven’t been able to understand the allocation module, and so we are still doing our investments manually. The guide that is provided seems to work more for people who have an overall understanding of how it should work. --- ### Review of Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Meredith F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Libraries - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Our overall experience has been great. Tech support and our implementation team were fantastic to help us get everything in place and have been a great resource as we have continued to learn the program. Having a solution that is not installed on the network , but on the cloud has given us more flexibility. And information is shown in a more user friendly display to easily see data all in one place. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Blackbaud being a Non-Profit Financial accounting system works well for us in the non-profit/ government sector as a library. They truly understand the needs non-profits have and work to create solutions for those problems and needs. Blackbaud is easy to use, and easy to train new employees with. The training Blackbaud provides can not compare to many other products. There are 20+ classes that can be taken with an online instructor or through E-learning . This training has helped us implement this software across multiple locations and make sure our staff was prepared for their duties within Blackbaud. #### Cons As a government/non-profit agency we are required to use Purchase orders. Blackbaud's purchase order system is not as user friendly as the rest of the software. They are working to move the purchase order system to the WebView and we have been told it will make several changes to make the PO portion easier to use. We also need to be able to multi level approvals on an invoice and the solution Blackbaud was able to provide until they get everything in WebView didn't work for our organization, as we are required to have a pre-audit statement on all purchase orders and invoices that are paid #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT Non-Profit customization, Tech support and Training #### Reasons for switching to Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT Banyon was not user friendly, and had been put into place as a temporary solution. --- ### Happy convert from Quickbooks Online - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rebekah S. - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered If you use RE, definitely integrate and use FE! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Integration with RE is the main reason we converted from QB Online. It was a great decision, as it has increased efficiency and reduced errors. #### Cons It was somewhat challenging for our accounting staff to get used to, since they aren't RE users, but the training package is quite good. --- ### The product you are sold is probably not what you will actually get - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our experience with FENxt has really been terrible. It is soooo slow. Features we were promised at implementation do not work or have never been rolled out (where is A/R??). It does not sync with our bill pay system (we were told it would!) so bills have to be manually entered into two systems. It takes a very long time for support and usually the ineffective solution is that we should clear our cookies or history, or we are sent something to read. One of our databases has had problems from the start. Every excel report has to be reformatted to be useful. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros It is good to have project tracking capabilities and to have the ability to work from home if needed. #### Cons The sales team will give you a lot of promises that are not reality. The biggest overall problems are how slow the system is, and features we were promised that never happened. #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT We thought that we were making an investment in a system that would improve the efficiency of our organization. #### Reasons for switching to Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT We switched in hopes of a better system with more integration and easier intercompany transactions. --- ### Great Fund Accounting Software - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Calyn B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We moved from QuickBooks to BlackBaud because we needed a fund accounting program and it has performed well for our organization. Our department heads now have access to the site and can see their financials more than just once a month which is game changing for financial decisions. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The cost of this software verses the others in the market is very affordable. The implementation went very smooth and it has been working very well. Support is usually really quick and helpful to get problems solved. #### Cons The reporting functions are time consuming to set up but most reports can be built to suit your needs and work great after the initial build. #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT We choose BlackBaud over the others due to fund accounting specifics and pricing. #### Reasons for switching to Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT Needed a fund accounting software --- ### User review - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Tim H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Has been positive but still learning the system since "go-live" migration about 7 months ago. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Migration from previous version was seamless along with BB team to assist where needed. Ability to "copy previous" is very helpful. Helpful training opportunities via on-demand or BB U taught courses. BB support is usually always quick to reply & direct when needed. #### Cons Understanding parameters that need to be set (i.e. post, etc.) can be confusing. BB support does not seem to have access to your org file when issues arise...that was a bit shocking. I would think behind the scenes that would be able to access & walk through critical problems that need to be addressed. I realize it may be a data security issue but having to add a BB staff as user seems akward. #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT Price consideration & need to migrate to cloud around Covid shutdown. --- ### Good product - backward implementation - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Kenton S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Religious Institutions - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: February 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The worst part is implementation. We had to make decisions about setup that cannot be changed before we fully understood how we wanted to use the software. They should have allowed us to use our own data in a "sandbox" model to learn how things work. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I love the fact that you can create journal entries and invoices and include that information in reports before posting them. This helps to avoid mistakes. The web view is user friendly and fairly intuitive. #### Cons The database view is archaic and not user friendly. Many functions have not yet been converted to the web view and must be done in the database view. #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT Cost and the fact that Blackbaud integrates with church management. #### Reasons for switching to Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT We were unhappy with Shelby. We also wanted a solution that was integrated with church management and had features like capturing credit card feeds directly from the bank. --- ### Overall a good product! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Amy O. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My overall review of Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT is a positive one. Since it has upgraded to a cloud-based platform it has gotten more user friendly. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I use this product primarily for Accounts Payable. Setting up vendors and entering invoices is very easy and the system design is easy to use. I also like how there is a new Payment Assistant feature that Blackbaud has partnered with Repay, and we have more options to pay our vendors, such as ACH or debit card, in addition to checks. Creating and running reports are also pretty easy. I also like how you can link to Aatrix for 1099 printing. Blackbaud University is also a very helpful tool. #### Cons Setting up the print options for AP checks was a lot of trial and error. Even though Blackbaud has their own forms you can order from, I found I still had issues with the check printing alignment. It is also hard to see where you would get support (live person or chat) if you need it. --- ### Great not for profit financial management system - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Fernando L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Our company really likes Blackbaud. We have used it as our primary financial management tool for over 12 years. It is a security program with many different layers of protections. Provide all financial reporting necessary for well management. Another plus is the price. It is very affordable compared to others. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Transition from an old database system to a new and easy all-in-one-place model system. It is a fantastic program for not-for-profit church management and schools. #### Cons Before completing the transition from the old to the new model, it should be better tested before the complete rollout. Need better customer service, especially at the chat. --- ### This product really can only get better - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Dorothy E. "Dolly" H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Our finance and marketing departments use Blackbaud FE and RE daily and they get the job done. Migrating to something else at this point would be a monumental task, but it still may well be worth the effort. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros Interfaces with our Fund Raising software (Raiser's Edge, I am equally thrilled with that too, and mostly for the same reasons cited herein). Blackbaud offers a good training program (which considering the product license fees all of which should be free). #### Cons The reporting is cumbersome. Lack of a self-service audit trail. The interface is not intuitive. #### Vendor response Hi Dorothy! I appreciate you taking the time to review Financial Edge 7 (legacy version of Financial Edge NXT) and being a loyal customer. All of the concerns you brought up in this review have been addressed the cloud-based version of FE7, Financial Edge NXT. ¿ Reporting - take advantage of being able to run multiple reports in your background at the same time, so that you can keep working while they run. You also get drill-down capabilities, 100 canned reports, and more. ¿ Interface - Financial Edge NXT is a cloud-based, modern, and intuitive platform. It is responsive and highly configurable. ¿ Audit Trail - Financial Edge NXT provides a complete audit trail with the ability for users (with permissions) to self-serve this information directly in the system. ¿ Migration - Migrating to Financial Edge NXT is very easy for Financial Edge 7 clients. We ensure that you have no loss of functionality, no data conversion, and no re-implementation. - Blake Paradise Replied April 2019 --- ### Financial Edge - the application that works with Raiser's Edge - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: George H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, FE is a good application if you are already RE but do not have an existing accounting application. If your organization is small and do not have an IT team, then look at Blackbaud to host your RE and FE applications and let the professionals take care of your application hardware infrastructure. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros If you are using Blackbaud's Raiser's Edge (RE) software and need another application to perform accounting functions, Financial Edge (FE) is the application that will take care of Vendor tracking, A/R, A/P, etc. Rather than using another accounting application (ie. Quickbooks), Financial Edge integrates with Raiser's Edge. When you post gifts from Raiser's Edge, it goes over to Financial Edge and updates the information. The information for batch number, Appeal, Funds, Campaign migrate over to FE from RE. The user interface, look and feel between Financial Edge and Raiser's are the same. If you know RE, then FE will be easy to catch on. If you are hosted by Blackbaud, then you will be looking for FE/NXT #### Cons While there is a lot of integration from RE to FE, this comes at a cost. The FE application is expensive compared to other financial applications. If you are hosting FE on-premise, I believe Blackbaud charges by the number of users. You also need to a server with SQL to run FE. This is not like QuickBooks which can install on a local PC. If you are hosted by Blackbaud, then you will be looking at FE/NXT and again price will your main concern. --- ### Not what it is projected to be - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Colin F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We were not actually able to use the software. The implementation specialist was changed 3 times with the good workers being the ones moved off the development. The 4 month scheduled process turned into a 14 month with no responsibility being claimed by BB for the delays. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The look of the web-based interface is really good and flows well. The reporting is highly customizable and sharable through email or dashboards. #### Cons The receivable module is still not available in the browser view nor are the EFT payments in Canada. So you have to do this in database view which is old, cumbersome, and confusing. #### Reasons for choosing Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT It felt like this was a good product, however, the more time that was spent in the system, the more oblivious it became that this software is not cutting edge in Canada. --- ### Financial Edge has given us an edge up - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Elaine T. - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2017 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Financial Edge has been a great experience; we have streamlined data processes and improved our reporting cabability more than 10 fold. We love the project and grant data management pieces as well. The newest addition of Credit Card payment/processing has been a WONDERFUL thing for our office. Our CFO and Accounts Payable Staff can easily see where we are at any given moment in regards to AP/AR balances. Paying invoices is really easy and the load from tables funcationality for GL Disbursments is helpful as well. Financial Edge also has the capabilty to create recurring invoices for those AP invoices that are the same month after month. We are integrated with Raiser's Edge as well and that process is very easy as well. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Ease of use in Query and Report Parameters #### Cons Some of the more intricate invoices can be cumbersome, but that is only for a few items that we have. I wish the Vendor integration with Raiser's Edge was more robust, but it works for us ok. --- ### Save yourself a lot of trouble - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: DLynae B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered This could be such a great product but I'm so very disappointed with the service and unwillingness to help, since we decided to leave blackbaud, that it doesn't even matter how good the software is. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Blackbaud is quite comprehensive, flexible and useful, unfortunately the poor customer service and outrageous cost does not qualify it to be a good choice for any institute. #### Cons Once blackbaud lures you in you are trapped, then they raise the prices , sometimes by three times the original amount, and your company suffers. Absolutely not a good option for non profits!!! --- ### Full featured software but not cheap - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Daniel W. - Industry: Philanthropy - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Great functionality, and able to handle everything our local non-profit organization needs it to do, including integration with the donor management side, Blackbaud Raisers Edge. An example of the good integration is that gifts recorded in Raisers Edge then can be posted over to Financial Edge, to avoid duplicate entry. Good audit trail for all transactions, with inability to change posted items. #### Cons The desktop version is being phased out with customer support and account reps strongly encouraging a move to the web based version, which is in fact more user friendly (per the demos I've seen) but is also more expensive, and it already was not cheap. --- ### Good Software but Pricey - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Nate R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Financial Edge does everything we need in office except for a few minor things. However, because the annual cost has gotten so high, it does not feel like we get much value for what we are paying anymore. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Software is powerful and fairly easy to use. Support is generally quick and helpful. Can do everything from payroll, to AR to AP. #### Cons Very expensive. Annual cost has gotten to the point where it almost matches what it would cost us to implement another software suite entirely. --- ### Financial Edge - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: TOdd V. - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros FE is great for a fund accounting software. It does all the basics. A/P is simple and easy to accomplish. The fixed asset module works great. the ledger is fine. It can get more complicated than necessary due to the ledger structure #### Cons FE is too hard to get help. There is a lot online, but sometimes you just need to have someone talk you through an issue. I have had an issue once where I needed to have their IT dept. fix a corruption in their software when I was closing a fiscal year. This software simply costs too much for maintenance and support. --- ### BB Financial Edge - a Perfect Solution for non profit accounting - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nancy M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

Ease of implementation. Ease of customer support. #### Cons AS our company has grown, we have become accustomed to finding work arounds to use because of the integration with Raisers Edge.

No incentive was offered I haven't used Financial Edge often but enough to run a few reports and post over daily batches. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Financial Edge is the best product especially if you are working with Raiser's Edge. It's the perfect companion to Accounting. #### Cons It has a steep learning curve; however, once you understand the basics of what it can do. You'll absorb a lot. --- ### Powerful - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Jennifer G. - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I would like to see NXT have all the functionalities that the database view has. I cannot do everything I need to do in just NXT, so we have to use the database view daily. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like most of the reporting. I also like the functionality in the database view. I really like the last invoice input view in NXT to help me keep my obligation description consistent. #### Cons NXT does not do everything I need it to and there are a lot of mouse clicks to finish a transaction, although I am seeing improvements as time goes on. --- ### Streamlined Accounting - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Latonya B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered Accessibility, ease of use, and non-profit focus - that’s what brought us two years ago. I would add to that now - great support, innovation and scalability. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Easy, intuitive, clean interface.

No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Financial Edge NXT is fairly easy to use in that the search functionality is intuitive and the software has the ability to be quite comprehensive, depending on how familiar you are with working in it and how much information you choose to input. The more you put in, literally and figuratively, the more you will get out of it. #### Cons I wish that all of the Blackbaud programs would integrate easier across the platforms. I find that I need to open several programs to get comprehensive information. --- ### Great Product That's Getting Better - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Tina P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2020 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
