Bring together all of your institution’s systems to create a seamless back-and-forth flow of administrative data, enrollment and retention strategies, learning management information, and more – anytime, from anywhere. | Give students, faculty, staff, prospective students, parents, and alumni anytime access to the important information they need -- courses, friends, events, notifications, news, maps, and more. | Bring your administrative suite to life with a rich user interface that helps increase productivity, provides ways to visualize data, and looks like the office tools your constituents already use on a daily basis. |
Your faculty, staff, and students need to quickly retrieve and respond to all types of critical and timely information -- such as questions from potential new recruits, newly added class assignments, financial aid questions, and course registration status. With Datatel, your institution can reach a new level of productivity, campus-wide collaboration, and student service – all in a seamless platform that is cost-effective and easy to manage.

The Datatel Portal brings together all of your institution’s systems to create a single user experience for your constituents while eliminating the unnecessary burden of requiring you to manage multiple logins. Everyone has single sign-on capabilities, both on campus and off.

The Datatel Colleague administrative suite maps across higher education’s unique business areas – including admissions, student services, financial aid, payroll, accounts payable, human resources, and fundraising – with a rich user interface that lets you:
- See the customer you are serving: integrate with your photo repository to help identify your constituent.
- Search by tasks: forget about mnemonics – now you can search by keywords to find the form you need.
- Work with several people across forms: when you need to work on several forms with the same students, vendors, employees, alumni, or prospects, simply search for the right people and bring them all into context.
- Improve your search capabilities: search for people based on multiple criteria and fields to narrow down your results.
- Get a better view: Mapping services and engaging colors and graphics make it easier to find people and controls.
- Save your favorites: Any person, organization, or set of people you have in context can be saved as a favorite for easy access.
