Re: Student Information System - Recomendations requested

Bernadette, I'd love to hear how well Spiral Universe works for you and if
you run into anything you'd like that they don't have yet. We are currently
using Lumen WeBSIS, but I've just started looking into Spiral Universe to
see if they might be a better fit for us.
