Facing the Digital Challenge

Web and mobile applications have quickly become critical assets for colleges and universities looking to stay current. However, with 79% of IT resources focused on maintaining existing systems, many schools struggle to deliver the applications that will help accelerate their digital journey and meet the ever growing demands of students and staff members.

Higher education institutions use Mendix’s application platform to build what they need in a much faster and more collaborative manner. Whether to streamline operations, or to enable new campus services, Mendix is the preferred platform for higher education app delivery needs.

"With so many unique processes that cannot be served with off-the-shelf software, there is no shortage of needs for Mendix within NC State. Our vision is to provide each of the 10 colleges that make up the university with a central platform that enables them to quickly build whatever they need, when they need it.”

Operational Efficiency

"It was essential that we delivered this app quickly and cost effectively, to get our outdated systems up to speed. Traditional development and integration times would have been anywhere from six to 12 months. Mendix fit within our budget and we were able to get our application up and running in just a few weeks.”
