SafeConnect (discontinued) vs. Tools4ever UMRA

It is very well suited for tying multiple systems and services together, allowing for exchanges of information and account management. I'm not sure of instances that it is not well suited since solution was recommended by folks in education. With that being the case it suited our needs quite well.

• Imports students and staff into our Active Directory and email system.
• It manages those same accounts, disabling accounts for folks who have left, and creating "Windows" when accounts should be enabled.
• It interacts with our Microsoft AD and our student management software seamlessly. Once accounts are in our AD environment, our student management and other systems create new email accounts automatically for us.

• We have been attempting to get single sign on for students, so they have the ability to change their passwords on their own. The documentation of this process is very dated, and often support isn't even aware that their site issues/ references those older documents.
• During the initial buildup of our server Tools4ever UMRA support was a bit hit and miss, but I will say our ongoing support has been very good.
• Some integration tools had to be custom created.

• We save considerable work hours by a multitude of staff having the system manage and generate accounts for us on a daily basis.
• We have some peace of mind knowing accounts for staff and students who leave our district can no longer gain access to our systems because it automatically disables those accounts.
• Because of the way the system interacts with input that is put in, it automatically creates logical positions which dictate different levels, meaning it automatically sets up when staff gain access and lose access depending on the position they are filling.
