Destiny has become so expensive and the most desirable features such as TitlePeek are an add-on. They keep sending emails asking why we don't use them for cloud hosting. Honestly, our district cannot afford it!

While Destiny has its issues (mainly problems related to printing labels), I have been using it for so long (20 years) that I have adapted to its faults.
