Customer Testimonials

Mike Miller

We needed to meet the overall expectations of our students. They don’t want paper anymore; they want to upload things. We needed to meet them there-rather than force them back to paper.

–Mike Miller, Interim Assistant Vice Chancellor for Enrollment Services, University of California-Santa Barbara (UCSB)

Matthew Metz

If you don’t have [mobile] types of service offerings, you really start to look like you’re behind the times. Students use mobile solutions in many areas of their lives; they’re comfortable operating there.

–Matthew Metz, Assistant Vice President for Enrollment, D’Youville

Ben Burton

My staff was spending a lot of time creating award letters, but students were struggling to understand what they meant… The efficiency AwardLetter has brought system-wide, the improved student engagement-we believe the possibilities are endless.

–Ben Burton, Chief Financial Officer, Ivy Tech Community College System
