"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."
“All in all, the new system has run smoothly and the migration has been very successful. The consultancy we’ve received from Ellucian has been invaluable.”
“For the first time, students can see what courses are required and completed for their degree programmes on one easy-to-read worksheet. Advising for at-risk students has been greatly improved and student academic dismissals have decreased due to better planning and course selections.”
"Our staff has that 24/7 mindset where they can put their time in whenever. This helps us smooth out all those workflows that can be cumbersome."
"The Ellucian solution has made our processes so much more efficient. Things are happening faster, and more accurately—and that allows us to do a lot more."
“Students tell us they love the new search features. They love that they can build a plan and then register from that plan. They loved the options; they loved the layout.”
"We’re able to compile data from multiple systems, so we can analyze that data much easier."
“All the colleges now use the same catalog, same naming conventions, and same data standards. That way, we’re truly comparing headcount in service programs at every institution on a one-to-one basis, as opposed to doing it 25 different ways.”
“Ellucian, as a company, has access to resources and people we can’t always get here in Abilene, Texas. They can better afford to train and compensate a pool of database administrators.”
“Once everyone saw a demonstration of the product, Degree Works sold itself and we now have full campus commitment.”
"The previous platform is a legacy platform that has not kept up with the developments that would facilitate the teaching and learning needs of the organization. We have a system that has been really stagnant for the last 20 years. We recently came up with a technology plan that aspires to ensure that we have a 21st-century technology infrastructure that allows us and our students to expand our potential and experience, and what we have right now is not something that is capturing that."
"A big plus for Lee University is ease of use, and CRM Advise is device-agnostic. Prior to this, we didn’t have anything, and what we did use wasn’t mobile-friendly. So with CRM Advise being mobile-friendly and the student portal being mobile-friendly."
"Registration is more than an administrative process. You need to give students an integrated tool that allows them to search courses or faculty and the ability to see their schedule with visuals."
"If I could give any other institution advice about Banner 9, it would be this: Don’t put off implementation. It serves your students well."
"We were utilizing about 10% of CRM Advise. We didn't truly understand the scope of what it could do for the institution."
