Challenges.
Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) was using a 30-year-old ERP system with limited tools for viewing and analyzing critical business data. The university lacked functionality, and its siloed systems led to inconsistent information and errors. It was critical for PLNU to have a comprehensive solution that connected finance, HR, and student data, and was flexible enough to handle a variety of academic calendars and educational modalities.
The ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ data architecture, mobile capabilities, and reputation vastly differentiated the company from other vendors in the market. Through its partnerships with other universities, ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ understood the complexities of the industry and directly applied those insights into the products, demonstrating a commitment to higher education.
²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ understands the complexity in higher education and is shaping the product to address those industry-specific needs.

²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ in action.
²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ enabled PLNU to see real-time costs by department, analyze human resources data, and have a holistic view of the university at any given time, which has been extremely valuable. The PLNU staff can now work more strategically and focus on higher-level tasks rather than data entry.
²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ helped PLNU identify incorrect organizational staff structures, as well as salaries that were being associated to the wrong cost center and causing challenges in budget analysis.
