Education-Software Leader Delivers Results for Prestigious Brazilian University

Category: Servers and Server OS, IT Management

Overview Techne, a major provider of education-management software to institutions throughout Brazil, was engaged by the UNIversity of SOrocaba (UNISO) to help address its IT problems. An internally developed solution, and its UNIX-based infrastructure, was costly to enhance and maintain. As a result, administrative costs and student fees remained high, hindering the university's ability to allocate resources to attract new students. With help from the Microsoft Partner Program, Techne deployed a solution based on its Lyceum product, running on an entirely new IT infrastructure based on the Microsoft server product portfolio. Consequently, the university's IT costs are down by 60 percent, student fees are down by 25 percent, and student enrollment is up by 32 percent.
