# Which education HR software helps campuses reduce manual faculty activity tracking and automate accreditation documentation?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">I'd say reducing manual faculty-activity tracking and getting to automated accreditation documentation comes down to one clear leader in <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/education-hr">education hr software</a>, based on what reviewers actually describe using it for day to day rather than what the product pages promise:</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true"></p><ol>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/watermark-watermark-faculty-success/reviews"><strong>Watermark Faculty Success</strong></a> (4/5, 80 reviews): best suited for automated accreditation output; one reviewer cited AACSB tables "ready to use," another said report generation for accreditors is "overwhelmingly useful," and a third said faculty only need to enter data once for the institution to pull consistent reports from it. Setup isn't instant, though; a few reviewers describe the first year of historical data entry as heavy lifting before that automation kicks in.</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/ellucian-human-capital-management/reviews"><strong>Ellucian Human Capital Management</strong></a> (2.8/5, 14 reviews): well-suited for general HR recordkeeping, but reviewers describe reporting as requiring a dedicated full-time staffer, not a self-serve accreditation workflow, and one reviewer said her IT department struggles to build reports from the system at all.</li>

<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/jenzabar-one/reviews"><strong>Jenzabar One</strong></a> (4/5, 55 reviews): solid for campus-wide records and praised for cross-departmental integration, with one payroll processor calling out that it "talks to all departments across our campus," though nothing in its review base speaks to accreditation documentation specifically.</li>

&lt;p&gt;Oh this is basically the exact problem Watermark Faculty Success is built around, so it&#39;s the obvious one to look at. Reviewers say the enter-once-report-many setup cuts the repetitive tracking, and it standardizes activity records into structured accreditation reports rather than rebuilding them by hand each cycle. The honest flip side people mention is that the up-front data loading and the not-always-intuitive interface mean the &quot;less manual work&quot; payoff really lands in year two, not week one. If you can, ask a similar-size institution how long before it actually saved them time.&lt;/p&gt;
