ERP/SIS Evaluation & Selection for Higher Education

Choose the Right System with Confidence and Clarity

Deciding to move on from your legacy ERP or SIS system is a big decision — one that can feel overwhelming without the right guidance. With so many vendors, features, and promises, how do you know which solution is right for your institution? 

That’s where CampusWorks comes in. 

We offer independent, objective evaluations to help higher education institutions confidently select the right enterprise systems. Our process ensures that your decision is aligned with your strategy, meets your technical and functional needs, and maximizes your return on investment. 

Because when your systems work — your campus works better. 

 

Why ERP/SIS Evaluation & Selection Matters 

A poor system choice can result in years of frustration, wasted resources, and disengaged users. CampusWorks helps you avoid costly missteps by leading a structured, data-informed selection process that puts your institution’s goals first. 

We help you: 

  • Identify and prioritize your institution’s unique requirements 
  • Assess vendors with an unbiased, performance-based approach 
  • Understand total cost of ownership and long-term fit 
  • Build confidence among stakeholders throughout the process

 

The ‘Status Quo’ Must Go 

Technology should enable best practices — not workarounds. If you’re seeing these issues, it might be time to evaluate your system: 

  • Bottlenecks in class registration, financial aid disbursement, or admissions 
  • Reliance on shadow systems and custom workarounds 
  • Staff frustration with outdated interfaces or limited functionality 
  • Uncertainty about how your system stacks up to modern standards 
  • Lack of clarity in decision-making around system effectiveness 

Don’t settle for the “way it’s always been done” when excellence is within reach.
