SaaS uplift to boost student experience
Bond University recently migrated to TechnologyOne’s software-as-a-service (SaaS) OneEducation solution.
The move from on-premise to SaaS was the logical next step in Bond University’s digital transformation journey. The final transition to SaaS took 72 hours, with TechnologyOne resources across Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and the UK working around the clock with the university’s dedicated business and IT teams to ensure all work was completed during the critical weekend timeframe.
Rather than being an on-premise application lifted and shifted to the cloud — which can reduce speed and compromise user experience and security — OneEducation was designed for the world of SaaS, enabling institutions to operate more efficiently. Featuring Student Management, the solution will help the university maintain its student satisfaction rating by providing a foundation to manage the entire student journey, from enrolment to graduation and everything in between, using any device at any time.
“Migrating our legacy platform to TechnologyOne’s modern SaaS solution was an investment into our future. It not only allows us to harness the latest advancements in technology but also ensures scalability, flexibility and enhanced security for years to come. This strategic move positions us to better adapt to evolving student needs, stay ahead of industry trends and, ultimately, deliver a world-class educational experience that sets our institution apart,” said Louise Batchelor, Bond University Registrar.
“Institutions like Bond University know that managing the student relationship isn’t just about getting them in — it’s also about keeping them engaged. We know from campuses that show dedication to student wellbeing that it increases academic performance, retention and graduation rates. Considering this, the economics of investing in a modern, futureproof student information system solution to help keep track of a student’s engagement and progression add up,” added Peter Nikoletatos, Industry Director for Higher Education at TechnologyOne.
