campusM’s constantly evolving list of Product Integrations allow you to deploy powerful integrated experiences quickly and easily within your app, free of charge. IT Services that take advantage of these product integrations significantly simplify backend maintenance while offering students a holistic view of their life on campus.
Consistently engaging the student in the roadmap process for your app can provide unique insight into what students actually want and which features or actions will have the most impact. Some of this ongoing information intake can be accomplished within the app itself using Quick Polls. By checking in with students on a regular basis about how they feel about the student engagement platform, you can adapt the app to meet student expectations and increase student satisfaction with your digital services.
Students crave personalized and contextual experiences. We know that resources that may be extremely valuable for juniors may have no bearing on seniors and vice versa. Tailoring the campus app to students’ interests and to where they are on their academic journey can have a big impact on usage and retention.
