When we used the whipple hill website (before it was bought by BB)  there was a capability to bring info from the website(core) to RE once it was approved.  We will never be able to use RE Connect as our data in Core is very incomplete as opposed to RE.  If we use RE Connect, we will lose all of the up to date data.  This seems ridiculous to me that BB cannot do something that a company did YEARS ago?!? It doesn't matter if you are working on something with the Sky reporting, but you are not taking care of your current customers' needs by not addressing this issue. Very disappointed in BB...dropping the ball.

This has not been planned on the 2016 roadmap because the broader vision for Blackbaud products and our new SKY architecture will create a new way of sharing constituent data instead of shuttling it between products. Our programming options are limited with the technology with RE 7 but possibilities open up the more clients can move up to RE NXT. We understand this is a reasonable need in the workflow, it is just not something we can complete in the short term.

Related to this - we discovered that if we made changes to an Alumni record in RE - then the onSuite synchronization overwrote the change.  

Being as we're giving staff, students and parents the ability to update their profile in OnCampus, this really is important - the next thing that happens is they get frustrated when they find out that their profile hasn't been updated in EE even though they went to all that work in OnCampus.  Wherever we can eliminate duplication f effort, the happier our users will be.  (and me!)
