Posted on July 10, 2019July 17, 2025 by Hemant Mahajan

This is the most common question that is asked by decision makers of education institutions, especially in higher education. Higher education institutions data is subjected to a data breach or data theft as it has all kinds of data from financial records, endless student records from all the years, important research papers, patents, and many more.

Let’s know what are the threats that are hovering over your data

Malware
Phishing
Obsolete/outdated technology
Unawareness towards the volubility of data
Human error

There many more in the line as threats are evolving with the technology as well.

What is the role of cloud-based education ERP?

Cloud-based Education ERP is a software solution for educational institutions for reorganizing institutions, standardizing business practices and alignment of technology to manage complete data management. It stores all the data on cloud by three types of services i.e. SaaS (Software-as-a-Service), On-premises and Hybrid.

Education ERP aka Student Information System fast-tracks the academic operations via automation and increase the productivity of the institutions.

Leaving all your data on a cloud-based Education ERP might feel risky as sometimes it tough to understand its functionalities. It should be noted that the cloud is a highly secure platform to store & manage your data but the security is a shared responsibility of vendors and institutions.

Here is how the cloud offers the security of data-

You get the control of all the data from the single platform

People who are fans of a cloud-based data management system, they love the control they have over their data. The admin can offer the privilege to any user with customizable access to functions to handle various departments. Cloud gives you the facility of encryption, multiple authentications, and access management via a single platform.

You get rid of human interventions in data management

The institutions which use their own server or they control the data physically. If you understand the processing of education world you know that the data created by institutions are endless and it is next to impossible to keep all the data with complete safety and immune to damage.

Many people have access to an on-campus data server. No matter how many types of securities (CCTV, multiple checkpoints for an identity check, etc. ) you install in to enter the data room; it is always prone to data breach and one humane mistake can cause the whole management system to halt causing loss of data, time and money.

The plus point with most cloud providers is that they back up the data to multiple locations that cease the chance of data loss. Moreover, the recovery of data from the cloud is quite easy and it minimizes the human error to zero.

Additional benefits of cloud-based Education ERP

24x7x365 connectivity and uptime of the system for the end user to make full use of the software.

Cloud-hosted server management is taken care of by experts and you need not worry about hiring server administrators and IT team to do so.

Server upkeep, maintenance, upgrades, patches are all taken care of by the Cloud Service provider.

Cloud-hosted servers configuration can be changed on demand as compared to fixed configurations for on-premise servers, giving endless flexibility with hardware configurations in case required in cloud hosting.

Managed backup services are better in Cloud hosting, which can give suitable disaster recovery options in case the servers fail due to hardware reasons.

Conclusion

Leaving all your important data to new technology can be overwhelming, but if you understand the technology thoroughly it can benefit you and your institute amazingly. Cloud-based Education ERP can reorganize and standardize administrative operations of educational institutions.

5 Mistakes Institutions Are Doing While Choosing Education ERP

Posted on May 7, 2019July 15, 2025 by Hemant Mahajan

When it comes to choosing an Education ERP solution for an institution, decision-makers and administration do multiple mistakes. It is assumed that educators are the decision-maker when selecting an EdTech for an institute, but it’s not like that. Upper management, administration, and educators all are responsible to make a decision for any advancement in their institution.

As they are representative of the institute they are supposed to make effective decisions and set an example for their followers. But it is not always the case. After analyzing various decision-makers of institutes, we realize that there are various mistakes they are making while selecting an Education Technology Solution (Software).

Below are the five such mistakes institutions are making which should be taken care of:

Ignoring the needs of the institution

There are different pain areas for different institutions. Some institutions are able to manage their fee and bill payments some are not. Some institutes provide transportation services for students and employees some do not. There are various kinds of needs for institutions and according to them, there are many EdTech solutions available in the market.

Due to competition and ignorance toward the needs of their institution, they get distracted by multiple options of technology in the market. It is the responsibility of administration and decision-makers to consult with teachers, and discuss with students about the actual need of the institution so that they can avoid waste of time and money on implementing the wrong technology.

Adopting an EdTech that they don’t comprehend

The main purpose of implementing an EdTech in schools of higher education institutions is to increase overall efficiency in the management processes. This can be achieved if users understand what they are using.

Many times decision-makers in institutes end up buying technology that they don’t understand completely and the whole purpose of using the solution goes haywire.

Therefore, it is important for institutions they make sure that teachers, students, and other staff members understand what technology they are going to use before buying it.

Not having a proper strategy for technology usage

Technology implementation should be done with a proper plan. Users should know what could be done with the technology in hand. It is the responsibility of the administration department to make a technological model and share it with every other employee, what function is acceptable and what is not. To make the most of technology, it is important to have a strategy for technology usage.

Not preparing educators and other staff

This is the most common mistake that institutions are making while choosing EdTech solutions for their institute. Educators, students, and other management staff are the important user of any technology update in an institute. In spite of that institutes usually, ignore this fact and pre-assume that they will be able to use any technology easily. It is very important to prepare and train educators and other members before making any technological changes within an institution.

Not getting proper training

Education ERP solution providers usually offer implementation and product training. They also provide customer support later on for any query. It is the utmost priority of an institute to have thorough training on the product after the purchase and before implementation.

Without comprehensive training, there will be no output of the product. The administration department of institutes should have a team member from all other departments for the training so that the technology can be used easily and efficiently.

Bottom Line

When choosing an Education ERP for schools or higher education, it is crucial to do a proper analysis of technology, available choices, research of the market, and the status of the institution.

It is obvious to get distracted by the multiple options available and the hype of competition. The main objective should always be kept in mind that you are choosing an EdTech solution to make academic processes streamline, fast and cost-effective not complex and confusing.

Do you know the implementation of an Education ERP can help you to save up to 50% on the operating cost of your institution?

University ERP- Bridging The Gap Among Students, Faculties, & Parents

Posted on April 30, 2019July 15, 2025 by Hemant Mahajan

Communication is power, it creates a better relationship, builds trust and avoids disposal of improper information.

Even in education industry communication is very important. We are aware of the importance of connectivity and synchronization between faculties and students. But there are many more dimensions to cover to fill this communication gap.

It is prevalent that parents want to be involved in their children’s lives especially when it comes to academic performance. They want to be aware of how their kids are being taught, how they are performing, is there any behavior that needs to intervene, etc.

Not only between parents and student but communication also plays an important role between faculties and students. If a student is updated with all the lessons, assignment details, faculty’s availability and other related information; his awareness will increase and he will perform better. Same goes for faculty.

Here comes the need for a proper system that can enhance the connectivity among all the stakeholders of an institute.

What is University ERP?

University ERP is a software programme that manages all the academic processes within a university campus. It is also known with various names around the globe e.g. University Management System, Campus Management Software or Student Information System.

It manages complete student life cycle from inquiry to graduation till placement. A University Management System streamlines all academic operations with the help of many advanced features.

How a University ERP is connecting students, faculty, and parents?

A University ERP or University Management System such as Academia SIS provides an exclusive portal for parents, faculty, and students. These portals help them to see all the information they require.

With the help of Parents Portal, parents can check the details of their children such as marks obtained, lessons taught, absentees, outstanding payments, disciplinary actions, etc. They can also track which faculty is running behind in his/her lesson plan and which one is performing better.

If parents stay aware of the performance of their children, they can take the required actions. Moreover, students perform better if their parents are aware of their academic activity.

If there are any inadequacies in performance or any other areas, parents can play their role to correct it.

Faculty with the help of Employee Portal can give assignments, homework to every student; individually or in a group which gives them the power to keep an eye on every student.

What are the benefits of University ERP?

In the olden days when our parents in college, their parents weren’t getting any academic or non-academic performance report of their children, only the mark sheet. Now the time has changed. With the help of Education ERP, parents can be aware of everything their children’s activity from beginning to end, which builds a meaningful and strong relationship among students, parents, and institutions.

Education ERP is the future

It is well known that Education Technology is going to replace all traditional and manual academic processes in the future. University ERP or Student Information System (SIS) brings the parents and institution on the same page, that ultimately leads to a healthy and successful student life cycle.

Modern trends of education and technology in a sustainable future

Posted on November 20, 2018July 11, 2025 by Hemant Mahajan

Stemming from one of the pillars of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, quality education has taken a central stage. The agenda talks about equitable quality education that promotes lifelong learning opportunities along with inclusiveness. The overall goal is to connect the general trends affecting education in the information age.

But why do you think sustainable development is talking so much about quality education? Shouldn’t it focus on the environment and the relationship between human development and its effect on nature? Well, after long research it was established that sustainable development cannot survive without social and cultural reforms and education plays an important role in building newer perspectives. Hence, sustainability cannot thrive without needling itself in the fabric of education.

But to execute a change on a global scale is challenging. Education is one of the oldest industries and since digitalization has not fully penetrated into the working of education institutes it requires a major shift in the focus. As a result, the entire world is changing its policies.

Furthermore, lifelong learning is centrally aligned with the concept. This global reform aims at being more agile in its approach. This global thought leadership has brought in trends of changes that we would like to discuss today.

Information Technology

Communication, connectivity, collaboration, transparency, and so many other things are amiss still in many educational organizations. The reason is their dependency on redundant methods of administration, management, and execution of academic activities. To counter that, education technologies are hustling to make technology and solutions cheaper.

With a major focus on making technology user-friendly, technology partners are researching the industry to understand the digital literacy of the population in focus. Solutions for all the stakeholders in the ecosystem – Students, Faculty, Administrators, and Parents are available easily in the market.

Edtech, digital learning, learning management systems, ERP, and other trending technologies have become an integral part of many institutes. Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Reality, Machine Learning, BigData, and Business Intelligence are being used to improve knowledge retention, student experience, student retention, and better student outcomes. Directly and indirectly, institutes are enjoying ample benefits from these technologies.

But most of all global policymakers are aiming at digitalization because it gives them an opportunity to bring the world together and propagate the best practices for achieving sustainability goals.

Change in aims and objectives

From implicit to explicit, the focus on skills has increased massively. It is not just a benefit for the students that are immediately “hire-ready” on passing their exams but it is in the interest of the world too. The more skill-based education is provided to the students along with their responsibilities to a sustainable future, the better outcomes are going to be achieved in the near future and future.

Policymakers are ensuring professional responsibilities along with creative, strategic, and analytical thinking are taught to the students to build a better future. They want people to think of things in terms of the world, not just individual gains and losses. Promoting the participation of youngsters in achieving these goals is ensured through increased access to knowledge, availability of knowledge material in contemporary formats, and increasing collaboration and open communications through free forums and communities.
