Competitive ERP System, with most of the required feature to manage Education Institutes

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Overall, it's good software to work with (For Admin, Teaching Staff, Students & Parents), customer support is also good, getting most of the required features under one roof is the advantage. Web & App both are available for all the users.

Pros:

Student Information System, Scheduling, Program/Course/Section Management

Cons:

Few features need to be customized as it's not meeting our requirements. Team is ready to implement the same too, but it's time consuming process.

Connect to Academia ERP and forget about other mediocre education software. Amazing work guys!!

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Academia ERP does what it says. The product is fulfilling the trust we have in Serosoft. The team is extremely enthusiastic and dedicated. Not only they are expert in their work but they are very friendly and always ready to clear any doubt in mind. We are really thankful to the team Serosoft and we recommend Academia ERP, as it is the best available software in the education domain.

Pros:

The main objective that was fulfilled by Academia is scalability and sustainability. We selected Academia SIS after analyzing institutions’ feedback on various social platforms. From the day of training, the product never stopped amazing us. Academia SIS has helped us in examination scheduling and processing, fee and billing processing, maintaining attendance record and many more. We are now able to save a lot to time due to the digitization of all the processes and most importantly we are able to achieve parents and student satisfaction.

Cons:

Nothing major issue, just one small concern of long processing time for dynamic reporting and I hope Academia is already working on it.

An excellent student management software with easy implementation and simple interface

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: My overall experience with Academia SIS is very smooth and easy. Using an ERP system for our institute was scary at first but with a friendly training & support team and easy user interface, it became easy to implement. An employee app will better. We surely recommend Academia as best student management system for institutes.

Pros:

Promising deliverability, admission, and pre-admission module automated admission process completely, extremely organized report generation in every module. Library Management Module also helped us a lot for organizing our college books.

Cons:

No mobile application for employees and very less feature in student mobile application.

The benefits l have observed are efficiency, harmony, time management and enhanced reporting system.

Pros:

The software is malleable , flexible and very adoptable to specific needs of any client.

Cons:

The cultural and educational settings were not tune to the African context.

Comments: Academia has been implemented by my current employer and the previous employer. It has been successfully running at both these Universities till date.

Pros:

Has all most commonly required tools to automate an Academic Institution Cost of the S/W is relatively cheaper than other integrated solutions It can integrate with existing Information Systems in place Customizable as required based on process changes

Cons:

Also it is a tough task to design UI for ERP systems, the UI would have been a bit better for non-specialist users
