"Thanks to Finalsite, we now have site architecture that actually enhances our value proposition, which is a big win for us as a Marketing Department."
Linsey Carbone, Senior Director of Marketing and Communications
Bethel College
“We selected Finalsite, in part, because of their design-first approach; rather than having to select a design firm and then make that design work with a new content management system, Finalsite is creating a design that will reflect our school’s mission and culture.”
Susan Miller, Director of Web Strategy
College of Coastal Georgia

Bethel College, a Christian liberal arts college in Indiana that draws students from all around the world, switched from an open source solution, MODX, to Finalsite in August of 2018. Within a few months of making the change, there were a number of positive results."Finalsite played a role in increasing the number of people taking actions [scheduling a visit, applying to the college, and requesting information] we want them to take through the website," says Susan Miller, Director of Web Strategy at the school. Alumni engagement has also increased. Miller credits the website as it has, "provided more opportunities to connect with alumni and made it easier to register and attend events."

The Finalsite Platform is a perfect fit for colleges and universities like CUKC with software that's quick, easy and flexible, allowing the team there to spend that much more time telling its unique story.
