Our small non-proift will be fully migrating shortly from Raiser's Edge to eTapestry. I used this forum a lot and was always able to glean useful RE information, tips, tools, and great support. I was surprised that Blackbaud took over eTapestry just after our commitment to eTap. And now to find a forum for eTap support here! Well, that is fantiastic.... It is great to know that you will be here for my eTapestry needs.
Thank you everyone for your past and continuing support.

We are currently on eTapestry and are looking at other ASP options. I'd be curious to hear what others are planning to do.

We use etapestry and love the ability to manipulate it to our needs. We have some issues with communication abilities but etapestry has been great about working on any problems and upgrading and improving.

Hi, sorry to dig up an old post, but am curious as to what, if any advantage there would be in switching from RE to etapestry?

[Aldersgate]

Since we've never used RE, I don't think I can give you an intelligent answer. I just know we like etapestry. Previously we used Fundimensions and researched software for our needs. We not only track contituent giving but also attendence at team-led events we hold in local churches and internationally. We also need to keep track of a lot of volunteers who serve at team members on six different events we can hold at local churches around the country. There are other things we like to keep track of (musical instruments played, singers, etc. for worship events, youth, children, etc.) SO for our purposes etapestry has been great b/c it can be maniputaled to suit your needs. We've added numerous defined fields particular to our needs. I'm not sure what your needs are and as I said we've never used RE so have no comparison there, but etapestry has served us well.
