Portland, OR, October 4, 2011
CollegeNET, Inc., a leading developer of Web-based on-demand technologies for higher education, today announced that it has partnered with Jenzabar, Inc., a leading provider of software, strategies and services for higher education. CollegeNET's data base interface now provides efficient data transmission between Jenzabar customers' ERP systems and CollegeNET Series25 scheduling and space management system. This partnership means that Jenzabar customers can now choose CollegeNET systems on a database-at-customer-site basis or as a hosted, software as a service (SaaS) model.
The SaaS model is a preferred option for many campuses because it eliminates the cost of purchasing, installing and maintaining software, and it frees up IT staff for other IT needs. CollegeNET SaaS customers have access to ongoing product upgrades and unlimited user support. A more complete explanation of the benefits of SaaS systems can be found on the CollegeNET site.
