Ellucian vs Populi: Which is best for you?

It's a great tool and one that has revolutionized our experieince as an institution - moving from antiquated methods to operating at light speed.

Massive additional costs during deployment, a tendency to confusion among the supposed "experts" around how basic pieces of the software worked, forced third party software changes that were unnecessary and expensive, and a quote that was clearly lowballed with the expectation that we'd end up paying on the back end for additional products that we didn't know were needed made this whole process less than good.

The ability to track the progress of a class is very useful and allows me to keep track of what I have left in a class.

Of all the higher learning software that I have used, Populi is my least favorite. Once your grade book has been set up, I find that making adjustments at times to be difficult.
