“A student information system is a critical application for
educational organisations. They help to automate many daily tasks,
and reduce the amount of time spent on administrative functions. By
helping teachers to be more productive and informed, this type of
software can make a real contribution to the classroom. Parents
also have access to data about their children, helping them to make
enlightened educational decisions.

“In some respects, a student information system has similarities
with Enterprise Resource Planning.

“To provide an insight into the quality of software available,
we have compiled a list of 5 excellent student information systems.
Hopefully there will be something of interest for any educational
establishment that needs to manage student data.

“Now, let’s explore the 5 student information systems at hand.
For each title we have compiled its own portal page, providing a
screenshot of the software in action, a full description with an
in-depth analysis of its features, together with links to relevant
resources and reviews.”
