Administration software for universities

Nowadays, managing colleges and universities is more complex than ever. Rising student numbers, increasing demands for digitization, and the need to streamline workflows present educational institutions with numerous challenges.


A powerful campus management system is essential for optimizing processes in higher education administration. But what are the specific problems that management, lecturers, and students struggle with most? We will show you and also introduce our daylight solution.

Challenges in higher education administration

In addition to the actual administration and organization of students and faculty, a campus management system must be able to handle other tasks. Here are some of the biggest challenges that need to be overcome.

Complex course and exam planning

Precise coordination between different departments is necessary for planning lessons, exams, and schedules. Due to missing or insufficiently networked systems, last-minute changes are often not communicated in a timely manner.


Double bookings, overcrowded classes, or unsynchronized timetables are unnecessary complications that impair the quality of the school or university.


Although many universities recognize the need to drive digital change, they often fail to introduce new software. Reasons for this include internal resistance, a lack of human resources, or difficulties in migrating complex data.

Extensive processes

Many extensive administrative tasks have to be performed manually as long as modern campus management software is not used.


This results in a huge time investment for tasks such as exam administration, grade management, timetable planning, and course registration.


Incorrect data maintenance, delays, and increased error rates are the result of these complex processes. Inefficient workflows and unconnected solutions cost valuable time.

Lack of transparency

Universities manage a large amount of data. If this information is not available in a central location, opaque processes arise.


Students often have difficulty clarifying exams, timetables, or open questions. In addition, university management is unable to make informed strategic decisions. Without a structured platform for information exchange, many educational institutions fall short of their potential.

Data security and data protection

The management of personal information is subject to high security requirements. Universities are responsible for protecting this sensitive information belonging to students, teachers, and employees.


Legal requirements for data security and protection against cyber attacks are also increasing the pressure. However, many universities still work with outdated systems that no longer meet today's technology and security requirements.

Is daylight the right software for your university?

There are various factors that influence the decision to choose university software. When universities and colleges turn to us, there are usually three main reasons:

  1. Dissatisfaction with existing software in terms of cost, automation, or adaptability.
  2. The desire to automate highly specific processes such as complex seminar management, exam administration, and room management.
  3. The school does not currently use any software and, as part of its digitalization efforts, is willing to invest in a customized solution rather than purchasing standard software.

daylight is not “off-the-shelf” software – and that is precisely where its strength lies. Its implementation is tailor-made, accompanied by individual consultation and a careful analysis of requirements. Instead of a simple download or quick registration, daylight offers a solution tailored to the respective university.


A clear organizational structure forms the basis for successful implementation. daylight supports the targeted digitization of existing workflows. To unleash its full potential, the software relies on structured processes – and collaboration. After all, all successful projects with daylight are the result of close, partnership-based cooperation.
