Canadian University of Dubai Goes Live on CAMS Enterprise in Six Months though other ERPs Usually Take Twice as Long
St. Louis (PRWEB) August 19, 2013 -- In fewer than six months, Canadian University of Dubai has implemented CAMS® Enterprise, the flagship disruptive academic management solution from Three Rivers Systems Inc., as its new enterprise resource planning system. A disruptive technology is an innovation creating a new market and value network to “disrupt” an existing market by displacing earlier technology.
CUD tweeted the news to students that admissions and registration had gone live. Although some academic ERP implementations can take years, a defining advantage of CAMS Enterprise is its rapid and hassle-free installation. Unlike other systems, CAMS Enterprise is a fully integrated, 100-percent Microsoft solution that can be up and running in a matter of months.
Implementation covers the process of installing and setting up CAMS Enterprise, converting and importing the institution’s data and training the school’s staff for a successful launch.
In selecting CAMS Enterprise over Ellucian Banner last February, Dubai-based CUD signaled a desire for a fundamentally different academic ERP systems built for the 21st century from the ground up with the latest Microsoft technology.
CUD’s selection committee lauded CAMS’ major functional and feature areas such as ease of use, strong admissions, registration and financial-aid packages, degree-audit and billing modules, a variety of portals and business analytics tools. CAMS provides everything institutions need to manage the entire student lifecycle, including: online applications; registration and payment; business analytics; mobility; integrated financial aid; built-in degree audit; built-in portals; government-mandated reports and much more.
Canadian University of Dubai Chief Advancement Officer Chris Savard said references for CAMS Enterprise were impeccable and unanimously positive. “Prestigious international clients like Hult International Business School, The American University of Paris and The Petroleum Institute of Abu Dhabi all had rave reviews about the CAMS product and Three Rivers Systems’ customer support. Now we know why,” he said.
