Ellucian Partnership
Let’s talk how we can support your cloud transformation
A long-standing collaboration
built on trust
Our relationship with Ellucian dates back to 2011, when we first collaborated around potential modernization of the Banner platform. Since 2017, we’ve engaged in numerous paid initiatives, helping educational institutions optimize their ERP, SIS, and CRM workloads, migrate to SaaS, and enhance their integrations, reporting, and security.
Through close collaboration with Ellucian product and services teams, we’ve developed deep technical expertise in Banner, Colleague, Ethos, Insights, Data Connect, and other Ellucian technologies. Our holistic, customer-first approach ensures that institutions benefit not just from individual improvements, but from comprehensive, integrated solutions across their entire data and application landscapes.
