EAST LANSING, MI--(Marketwire - July 28, 2009) - Tendenci (www.tendenci.com) online
management software has gained a high profile customer in higher education.
Michigan State University's Student Services Advancement Office has
launched a new Tendenci-powered Web site, www.spartanpartners.msu.edu. The
new site is focused on attracting partners and donations to enhance the
University community.
Tendenci is developed and marketed by Schipul - The Web Marketing Company
(www.schipul.com).
With Tendenci software, the Spartan Partners Web site enables students,
alumni and friends of the MSU community to explore various programs,
volunteer their time, reconnect with friends and make donations online. The
site utilizes Tendenci's searchable membership management functionality and
online calendar and event management capabilities.
"As a new office, we are growing and adjusting our information and featured
fundraising projects constantly, and Tendenci provides the flexibility we
need," said AnnMarie Linkley, director of development with MSU's Student
Services Advancement Office. "Tendenci allows us to easily adjust the
content to meet the needs of our programs and alumni, and allows us to
explore creative new projects for a reasonable cost."
Tendenci's automated search engine optimization capabilities make the
Spartan Partners Web site is easy to find through search engines.
Tendenci's integrated online photo album allows MSU's team easily upload
and manage photos depicting the outcomes of their programs, such as the
recent Alternative Spring Break Program trip to New Orleans during which
students donated a week of service.
Tendenci enables site administrators to quickly create and distribute
e-newsletters. Site users can also subscribe to be alerted to updates
through the integrated Really Simple Syndication (RSS).
