Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Billed as a great resource to help facilitate faculty and students in finding and recommending resources. This is integrated into our LMS as we have outsourced our text adoption services to Follett.
Pros and Cons
  • Allows for searching or Follett resources.
  • Ability to integrate into the LMS.
  • Allows for self-directed help.
Likelihood to Recommend
The self-service nature and the ability for faculty to recommend and search for texts and resources but the adoption process is not well integrated. The user-friendliness of the process forces the students to then go to a third party instead of staying within the ecosystem.
Most Important Features
  • LMS Integration.
  • Self-service.
  • Full catalog.
Return on Investment
  • Searching and identifying resources save time and improve accuracy.
  • Integration has caused more user tickets due to errors.
