    Pros:
    I training for the students and the customer support is excellent. They truly value our feedback and have customized our program to our needs.
    Cons:
    Our Admissions team used MC this past summer for freshmen applicants and gave them an application number which MC used as their ID number. If they ended up depositing and matriculating, they are assigned an ID number. This was not able to be updated in the system and now for alerts, students who were in both programs don't have their correct ID assigned, so when we get an alert for them, and if they have a common name, it takes some time to figure out who they are.

    Pros:
    Since implementing Mentor Collective, our team's capacity has expanded, we've seen higher quality matches, and we can better track progress and barriers to student success. The insight flag and conversation log functions allows us to better understand the issues our students are facing and how to best support them. The onboarding and tracking pieces help our team to understand progress and where additional outreach is required. The mentor and mentee profiles give us a clearer understanding of who the students and professionals are who are participating in the program and share the story of impact externally.
    Cons:
    When pulling mentor and mentee reports, we need to export the data and then filter the spreadsheet by date matched in order to see current active participants (as opposed to participants who registered and completed the matching survey). Being able to click on an generate a report of currently matched students and not the full list of those who registered but didn't go the additional steps would be helpful.

    Pros:
    We're a national organization with reach across the United States and the Pacific Islands, we needed a virtual platform that made it easy for mentors and mentees to sign up to be mentors and facilitate their pairings, Mentor Collective offers that.
    Cons:
    Over the two years of the program, there has been drop off in survey completions and contact tracked. While the software helps with the first step of facilitation, there is more to be desired when it comes to the ongoing strength of that mentorship pair.

    Mentor Collective at the most diverse four year public institution in the nation

    5

    Our overall experiences with Mentor Collective have been phenomenal! Our mentors are gaining real-world experience in providing support to their peers and mentees are benefiting through the relationship building and connection they make with their mentors. When we first started out with this program, it was with the sole purpose of increasing our first-year retention rate. We have come to realize that not only are we able to see an increase in retention for our program participants, but we're also seeing benefits for both mentors and mentees in ways that we hadn't even thought about at the beginning of the program.

    Pros:
    We are in our fifth year of using Mentor Collective and each year, not only do we get more students matched with mentors, but the quality of the mentoring has improved as well. This is evidenced through an increase in both overall GPA and retention of students (as a cohort) who are matched with a mentor compared to those who chose not to participate in the program. Mentor Collective provided the matching of our first-year students with mentors that they helped us train. Mentor Collective also provides on-going support for their online platform. This is especially helpful for administrators who are tasked with providing timely response to flags raised by mentors.
    Cons:
    We are the most diverse four year public institution in the nation making it difficult to build any type of program in a one size fits all format. The diversity on our campus requires that our mentors be trained on cultural competency and being able to effectively communicate with peers from many different backgrounds, cultures, geographies, etc. The basic training that Mentor Collective provides does not really factor in some of the reality of what institutions of higher education is dealing with in terms of relating to students through the lens of diversity, equity and inclusion.

    Reasons for choosing Mentor Collective

    Mentor Collective offers training for our mentors. Additionally, Mentor Collective provides a dashboard that makes it convenient for administrators to manage the program. Compatibility offered to match our students using their algorithm, with very little additional support throughout implementation of the program.

    My experience with Mentor Collective has been immensely positive, and the program has both decreased summer melt and increased retention, especially for students of color.

    Pros:
    The dashboards provide a wealth of information that enables me to see which populations are taking advantage of the program and where we need to grow participation. Integration into our existing structure was fairly easy, thanks largely the the guidance Mentor Collective provided in how to introduce the platform to stakeholders and who to include on our team.
    Cons:
    As Mentor Collective is aware, acting on Insight Flags continues to be an issue, often because they depend on the mentor providing sufficient information. I know they are working to improve this aspect of the program.

    Mentor Collective has allowed our college to scale a peer mentoring program from 100 participants to 350 participants in the course of one year. We would not be able to provide this resource to so many first-year students without their logistical support.

    Pros:
    This software collects and stores the data that is needed to review program success, challenges, and norms. It also does all of the mentor/mentee matching and has a robust online mandatory training program for mentors in your program.
    Cons:
    The data dashboard can be confusing at times, with inconsistencies and holes in the data. However, the Mentor Collective is providing an upgrade to the dashboard in the coming weeks, which should help with this issue.

    Reasons for choosing Mentor Collective

    Mentor Collective provided webinars that showcased what their product can accomplish. They used college and university programs that have already been established and shown success, and shared how those programs used Mentor Collective to their extreme benefit.

    Pros:

    Cons:
    It would be nice to have some more detailed data (URM, transfer status of mentees) at our fingertips in the dashboard.

    It facilitates initial coordination, training, and engagement, and provides continued support and communication that makes it easy for all participants.
    Cons:
    It is largely independent from our existing systems, but that is because of our other third party software contracts and not anything against MC.

    Mentor Collective for New Freshmen

    4

    So far it has been good. They are responsive and it is nice having an assigned contact. Training overall would could be more thorough or have more asynchronous content to view. Because Mentor Collective handles much of the communication on their end, administrators on campus don't always know what they are being told and how often students are communicated with. It also isn't always clear whose responsibility is what on tasks since there are basically two sides working on it.

    Pros:
    It was a simple way to connect to a large population of students to have connections as they first enter college. Students seem to be engaging and have had positive comments about it.
    Cons:
    As an administrator, I am not aware of what messages go to students who are participating, I have minimal knowledge on how to maximize use of the dashboard. Students aren't clear on who is running the program, there is limited interaction outside of mentoring groups.

    Reasons for choosing Mentor Collective

    Supervisor spoke with reps and selected the program.

    Pros:
    Mentor Collective has helped our incoming students to connect with more experienced students are out university. In a time where making connections has been challenging due to quarantines, isolation, remote classes, and more, Mentor Collective provided a way for students to develop a sense of belonging with the university without having to step foot on campus. The mentors are great about connecting mentees to resources and helping to engage them with campus.
    Cons:
    For what I have had to use this for, I have no complaints.
