Blackbaud has acquired and kept the FundWare channel that came with its purchase of Kintera, but its site shows only 16 survivors from that era. However, there is also a list of 12 Financial Edge resellers. Now, the company hasn’t said anything, but the fact it recently came out with a lower-end (and lower-cost) version of Financial Edge would lead me to believe it might ramp up a reseller base for that product. This becomes a cost-of-sales equation and supposing that Blackbaud can’t sell everything via the phone or Internet in a cost-effective way, the traditional answer is third-party distribution. I have an inquiry to Blackbaud PR about the status of the program. The site has a three-tier program. It costs nothing to be a Silver reseller with a local presence; $5,000 for Gold status and a national presence and $7,500 to be a Platinum dealer and work internationally,  $5,000. As to other qualifications? All is saw was a submit button, thus saith the raven, nothing more.
