Hello Everyone!
Looking for recommendations for web-based portals being used by other
colleges...
We are in the process of researching web-based portals/email for our
institution (4000+ undergraduate students) and have a short period of time
to implement whatever solution we ight decide upon (pilot by end of April
and full implementation by Fall 2002) so it will probably have to be "out of
the box".
Requirements:
1.Hosting of email accounts for 4000+ students w/at least 5mb per account.
2.Single, web-based sign-on that also allows access/interface with our
student information system (Datatel via Webadvisor) & course/class hosting
provided by Blackboard.com.
3.Reliable, 24/7 support.
4.Scalable to add our Faculty/Staff (750+) at some point.
Additional wish list items:
1.Calendaring
2.Web page hosting
3.Interface with Win2000 Active Directory Domain environment
We are currently considering CampusCruiser and Campus Pipeline, and have
gone through the financial and technical issues of trying to use an Exchange
Server w/Outlook Web Access. Any thoughts, experience or insights on these
products or other alternatives would be very helpful.
Thank you!
