"Complacent firm with a reputation for bad customer service."

0/5

What do you like best about Anthology Student?

Intuitive system and the user interface works well for staff. The system is integrated with our accounting system, which allows for efficient processing of accounts receivable transactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Student?

The customer service is extremely lacking across the board. Their support staff is unresponsive and does not have a sense of urgency to matters that affect our business. We have had issues for months at a time and there is no resolution, even when you have to contact Senior VP's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Anthology Student:

Be very careful in reviewing what is presented in sales conversations and ask detailed questions specific to your organization. The sales team and the operations team are not aligned and neither is great at responding to issues. The company has taken for granted that there is a huge barrier to switching SIS's and therefore provides dismal support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Anthology Student solving and how is that benefiting you?

The system integrates cross-functionally, which allows for efficient processing and transfer of information across our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid as a student record system"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Anthology Student?

12 years ago the product met the needs of the post secondary education world. It works very well to consolidate data to support financial aid, financials and the academic life-cycle. It's a simple interface. Users can understand the interface without indepth training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Student?

The ability to support automated conditions. The OOTB solution does not support many automated needs that are part of the current industry. The ability to use the product to enhance student engagement or student retention is limited. It offers an outdated student portal interface. The career services module is extremely basic. The accrediting bodies require much more indepth dive into the data that nexus can support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Anthology Student:

Consider how your business operations fit into the application. If you have multiple brands or locations that operate different, consult with your implementation specialist. Encourage your staff to document all business processes before implementation. Consider of the mobile version of the student portal product will meet the expectation of the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Anthology Student solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ability to produce student schedules, student transcripts, billing, ledger payments, financial processing including finanical aid, and a student portal self service solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Needs Major Updates"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Anthology Student?

All aspects of the student enrollment process(inquiry, app, housing, financial aid, housing, etc) all manageable in one system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Student?

Not very user friendly. Firmware seems really out of date. I think a Web based application would be more effective Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Anthology Student:

The system is OK but seems ancient. Web-based applications like Banner are probably more effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Anthology Student solving and how is that benefiting you?

Different people in different departments can all access the student's record. They only have permissions to update their specific department's area of expertise (i,e. financial aid or housing) but everyone from other departments can view the info. Really allows for a collaborative effort from all departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A robust solution to keep track of your students"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Anthology Student?

The power behind the software is nearly all-encompassing. From admissions, to grades, to graduation, CampusNexus can do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Student?

An easier way to see "what was" would be nice. I run a lot of reports, and sometimes need to see what statuses people used to be in. Maybe there's a way, but I haven't found it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Anthology Student:

CampusNexus can probably handle what you need to do. However, you'll likely want someone that had a good amount of database experience on your implementation team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Anthology Student solving and how is that benefiting you?

Nearly all student-related needs can be solved with CNS. It handles the whole time-line of the student experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good but in need of modern updates"

4/5

What do you like best about Anthology Student?

It’s very easy to log activities on students files and keep track of documents that they submit. The software is pretty quick as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anthology Student?

Every so often the software will freeze up and you have to minimize or close it completely and restart it. The software looks like it should be at least 10 years old and while I can’t be fast, it also is slow many times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
