   “Prior to having [Innovative Mentoring Software], we  didn’t have a good means of keeping our client records up-to-date.  It was a very manual, time consuming process.  Now we can easily update and be 100% current each time we do a mailing, or need to create reports for a grant or board meeting.  And, it’s much easier to monitor when we need to do follow-up with matches!  I also appreciate the ability to maintain contribution records and create reports throughout the course of the year.  The information is literally a click away!”

     “I love the database.  It is easy to use and the reports and searches are great.  I used the searches to report to a funder, and they were very impressed with the amount of information we were able to provide.”

      “I am able to tailor the program to make it perfect for my organization along with being able to print several reports and to export data as needed for spreadsheets and labels.  Moreover, the staff [of Innovative Technology Solutions] have been very pleasant, open to suggestions and very helpful."
                                                                                                                 —Aaron Olson, Executive Director

     “Accessing the database from the Internet is HUGE.  I work at a satellite office, so with our old database I had to call our main office with any data changes.  Now I can keep my records up-to-date.  I also like the search screens—it is easy to quickly find the right information.   And, it is helpful to record in the database my communication with program participants.  The database helps me save time, so I am more organized and productive.  I can now    focus more on serving our clients and doing my job well.”

     “I’m really enjoying the database.  I especially like the communication page.  It is an easy way to document my conversations with mentors, families, and others—no more pen and paper!”
                                                                                                                —Veronica Kleefeld, Executive Director
                                                                                                                    Kinship North

          “The database  makes my job a lot easier, and I am more efficient.  I like that I am able to use it to write in conversations with mentors and families. ”
