Campus Leaders Under Pressure

Campus Imperative: Migrate your on-premises environment to an enterprise cloud infrastructure for cost savings and innovation (PDF)

As colleges and universities prepare for re-entry that requires a mixed environment — some people on campus and others off — the IT organization faces an age-old problem: greater demand for services with the same or even diminished budget. Institutions don’t know how many students will be returning, whether face-to-face or remote. They’re still sorting out what state funding they might receive. The pressure is on to make sure the customer experience for members of the campus community will be as efficient and engaging as possible, so business — whether that’s new enrollments, new hires, new donors or new research projects — isn’t lost to the institutional competitor down the road or across the country.
