245 Ellucian Testimonials

"As we were getting ready for the 2024-25 FAFSA changes, our ISIR import and export needed to be improved. There were some duplication errors that made it really difficult to open up the server."

"Because of the success of this project, we are looking at many new ways to use the wealth of information we already possess in Colleague to help drive other improvements."

“We’re getting a historically immense amount of data, all contained in Colleague. The system gets better by the day as new data is constantly being imported.”

"We're processing verifications in half a day. With COVID-19, I can't even imagine what our processing time would be without Ellucian."

"I think that the most beneficial piece of Ellucian CRM Recruit is the way that we can now communicate easier, quicker, faster, and more accurately with our prospective students."

“We’ve been able to automate a lot of things that have, in the past, been fairly mundane tasks for somebody. Those changes allowed counselors and general admissions staff to focus on recruiting higher caliber students.”

“From an operational standpoint, the real advantage with Ellucian CRM Recruit is we don’t have to write the import for Ellucian Colleague for SAT and ACT scores and applications. It’s all part of the Recruit import. Previously, when the new formats came out, we had to dedicate programmer time to redo all the imports. We don’t have to do that anymore. That saves us about 100 to 120 hours a year.”

"I now have real-time data showing me how many students are currently enrolled in a particular course, semester, year, or location and can make better management decisions on the fly. I’ve designed a report that works perfectly for my needs, and I can run it any time at the touch of a button."

"Before Colleague Reporting and Operating Analytics, we were constantly scrambling to assemble the right data in time, having to retrieve information from multiple sources, and struggling to ensure accuracy. We have now designed a variety of reports using reliable data collected and updated on an ongoing basis, not just when we need it."

“Colleague Reporting and Operating Analytics was a sound investment from both a cost and strategic perspective. Built-in business intelligence tools, the reduced need for additional technical staff, and more resources being applied to using analytics to further our business goals is already yielding a positive return on investment.”

“Our institutional strategy for reporting and analytics is more coordinated and cohesive. We have empowered more people to help themselves, so that resources across the board are being used more efficiently and strategically.”

“Technology will never stop changing, nor will the expectations of our end users—especially students. There aren’t many universities with the resources needed to support constant, rapid change without sacrificing cost-effectiveness or strategic focus. We are making sure that technology will enable, not limit, us wherever we need to go long term.”

“Ellucian takes responsibility for every phase and aspect of deploying Banner in the cloud, providing a single point of contact, backed by a broad base of experts. I can’t overstate the value of having higher education-specific functional and technical experts that understand our systems, business processes, and unique IT requirements and who treat us like partners every step of the way.”

"We've made a conscious effort to drive students to Experience as the entryway into our entire ecosystem."

"The integration between Ellucian Colleague®, the Ellucian Intelligent Learning Platform, and Moodle is phenomenal. We’ve cut the time spent on course administration by 25 percent. For us, that means one faculty member can teach an additional course each term. Choosing Ellucian Intelligent Learning Platform is the best decision we ever made."
