There isn't a lot of glitz-and-glamour with this system but it will get the job done. Pros It was an easy way to manage new inquiries from our lead sources. Pretty user friendly and also relatively easy to teach to new incoming employees. Cons Perhaps it was because we had too many inquiries flowing into our system, but there were occasional glitches our system which caused a duplication of inquiries.

Pros I like that there are many tabs and options and so much information for each student. I like that you can customize the toolbar at the top to look up the most frequently used options that are available to each user login ID. Cons There software is annoying to look up student schedules. It should already know I am wanting to look up the current students schedule, without me choosing that report then having to enter the student number again.

AU Anonymous User VP MarCom Higher Education ### "Does the Job, But Painfully" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 December 30, 2021 Pros Powerful and full-featured SIS. Customizable and easy to use for routine actions. Cons Complex and inscrutable at times. Support is frustratingly inept and slow. Takes days of back and forth just to establish an understanding of the problem, then more days of back and forth to solve.

Support from the software vendor is second to none. Their staff is very professional and knowledgeable about academic technology. Cons I can't speak to anything negative about this company. They have been a great resource and partner for our institution.

Application Support Analyst: Tier II Higher Education ### "CampusNexus Student: Right SIS for your institution? " 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 November 27, 2018 It's been great overall using CampusNexus Student and working with the Campus Management Corporation. They are always attentive to issues I submit, are great with providing solutions, and are always pleasant to work with. Pros I like the simplicity in setting up contact manager notification triggers as well as the intuitive permissions/security structure. CampusNexus student allows you to get extremely granular with the canned reports, but also allows custom report creation when the canned reports won't provide sufficient data. We are currently self-hosted, which gives us a lot of control on our processes without losing the customer support and assistance from CMC, the software vendor. Cons The non cloud or webclient versions of CampusNexus Student are a bit dated in appearance and functionality when compared to competitor offerings (Ellucian, Unit4, etc.). While this complaint is moot once you make the transition to or start with the webclient version of CampusNexus, the skills required to effectively use that version and all of its features are robust (Bootstrap, SQL, .net, Javascript, Python, basic HTML/CSS, etc.).

Marketing and Admissions Analyst Higher Education ### "Keep students records all in one place." 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 June 21, 2018 I run reports to check out trends in enrollment. Pros The robustness of the program. It's a very complex and thorough database of everything the student has done since enrollment. Cons Viewing history can be a challenge sometimes. For my job I need to see who started classes recently, and I haven't found a way to isolate those who are actually starting for the first time.

AU Anonymous User Vice President of Finance Education Management ### "Much better than CampusVue" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 November 29, 2017 Pros Nexus is much much much more user-friendly than CampusVue. Customization and reporting is great. Being so new, I know it will continue to get even better. Cons Switching from CampusVue to CampusNexus was tremendously expensive. In my opinion, if you don't have a fairly large IT department, you still need a Managed Services contract with Campus Management, which is also very expensive.
