It has been great to brainstorm ideas that I have and come up with ways to implement them on the website. He has been extremely patient while we work on providing a method to pay for the services he has provided as well. > > **Cons**: Resizing pictures to fit into the long\_photo section was difficult to learn. I had to do that work outside of the site in another program. It would be great if you could upload a picture there and edit the size just like you can in column news. > > I would definately recommend to others and have. ----- ### "Alumni Channel gave us a professional website with many features." — 5.0/5 > **Charlie** | *5 April 2013* > > **Pros**: Ease of use, customizable to meet our needs, technical support, speed of site, many features and functionality, integration of social media, and cost. User experience, ability to reconnect with other classmates and accept donations. Database and profile management make it easy to send email blasts. > > **Cons**: None at all. > > We are extremely happy with our choice of Alumni Channel. Chis Gehringer has been a pleasure to work with throughout the implementation process and after we went live. He is always accessible and will quickly respond to any questions we might have. Do yourself a favor and make the decision to move to the Alumni Channel today\! ----- ### "My experience has been pretty good once I figured out how the site works." — 3.0/5 > **Megan** | *31 August 2017* > > **Pros**: I like the ability to modify student searches to look for specific information (like if they did co-ops). > > **Cons**: Sometimes the site can be a little hard to navigate, especially when you are trying to figure out how to do something in the site. ----- ### "St. Joseph is a fan of the alumni channel" — 4.0/5 > **Stephanie** | *29 June 2011* > > **Pros**: The customer support is wonderful\! Chris is VERY helpful\! The site contiues to bring in the use of new technology (facebook, live customer support chats, ect.) which is crucial\! > > **Cons**: The ease of using the writer for email blasts/news posting is somewhat difficult because it does not read microsoft. With some further training with all the site has to offer, I feel this site is certainly meeting our needs. > > I like the overall feel of the site, but would like some additionally training as new options become available (and refreshers for existing ones). Thank you\! :) ----- ### "The A\&A website really is a great way for our members to connect." — 4.0/5 > **Leslie** | *27 April 2009* > > **Pros**: It is extremely user-friendly. If I can't figure something out on my own (which I usually can by referencing the manual) Chris has always been available to assist me with updates and questions. The "search by state" feature is a big hit round these parts. Thank you for making the effort to customize our site to fit FCCLA's needs. > > **Cons**: Not being able to upload very large documents. I dislike making Chris take time to do this for me. > > The A\&A website really is a great way for our members to connect.
