Portal Benefits

Give Everyone an Intelligent Workspace

With the Datatel Portal, every constituent (on campus and off) can have a personalized, intelligent work experience. Because the Datatel Portal brings all your systems together into a single, fully integrated solution, everyone can find what they want without having to navigate multiple networks and systems.

Make Things Easy

  • Consolidate system access with just one login
  • Give students the registration experience they dream about
  • Provide dashboards that enable staff, managers, and executives to easily view and drill down on key performance indicators
  • Let users receive the information they want, when they want it, in the manner they prefer. (Did you know users can pre-define the routing of particular messages to their cell phones, PDAs, email accounts, or practically any other communications device?)
  • Provide collaboration teamsites with advanced tools for campus/staff organizations or  even course sections that need to share information, interact real time, and get things done quickly

Reap the Power of Personalization

  • Give everyone a complete picture of what’s ahead for their day – including calendars, class assignments, announcements, and to-do items
  • Add visibility to key reporting metrics where they can positively influence daily business decisions
  • Get personal fast - Start with dozens of pre-built persona templates focused on the needs of students, employees, executives, alumni, and  other important constituents
  • Reduce the clutter of news, email, and updates by delivering targeted information to the right audience

From an IT Perspective

  • Leverage tools you already have on campus, including Colleague, Microsoft SharePoint, LMS systems, and others
  • Save real money – the Datatel portal provides basic LMS functionality that can be amplified with Moodle and/or MoodleRooms.  Ask for a cost comparison of your current LMS investment compared to Datatel’s Teaching and Learning solution
  • Create the online community and interaction that today’s students are demanding, including access with mobile applications – every student may not come to campus with a laptop but they come with handheld devices
  • Simplify integration – It’s time to simplify the number of vendors you deal with and harness the power of your Colleague system to drive this online community
  • Balance the load on servers – Datatel Portal 2.0 delivers a new course registration experience that actually does the student’s search for courses and sections on the SharePoint server, offloading some of the work on WebAdvisor (but it’s seamless to students and that is exactly what you want) 

Create a thriving, cohesive community by bringing everything together, from teaching and learning systems and registration, to calendaring and newsfeeds with the Datatel Portal.  This changes everything!
