The Student Management ChallengeHow do we manage identities across multiple systems – efficiently?

We need a better way to create and manage student accounts across all our cloud services and internal systems.

Right now, we’re using several different admin apps to manage identities across our directory, CRM, HR, and email systems.

Each of these apps are fairly complex and require training and admin rights or special permissions.
