Nicole Engelbert: “Open” Demonstrates Momentum at SunGard Summit

In the IT Daily newsletter published by Ovum on April 15, analyst Nicole Engelbert gave her impression of the significance of SunGard Higher Education’s Open Digital Campus. “SunGard Higher Education’s shift from the ‘Unified Digital Campus’ to the ‘Open Digital Campus’, while subtle in its language, has proven more impactful in its execution. At its summit event this week, announcements abounded – but so did evidence that the decision to open its solution strategy is already paying off with better alignment to institutional needs and enhanced services. Even though sustaining this momentum will require SunGard to prepare for the unruliness of a more democratic relationship with its clients, early returns are encouraging. “
