uPortal and the University of Wisconsin-Madison

When the University of Wisconsin-Madison sourced a new portal framework, they chose uPortal. uPortal gave UW-Madison control over their upgrade schedule, and the capability to adapt and innovate to meet diverse local needs. Ten years on, and UW-Madison's innovations include virtual portal hosting, ERP integration, and a refreshed and modern user experience - all shared back to the uPortal community and growing sustainability.

Apereo. It's about community.

Sharing costs. Sharing code. Sharing vision.

Columbia University Single Sign On: From Home-grown to Community

For almost ten years, Columbia University had been running a home-grown web single sign-on (webSSO) system called WIND, and integrating it with a variety of on-campus applications. When Columbia decided to adopt Google Apps they considered the effort required to extend WIND again, and decided it was time to consider a more standards-based approach. Columbia was attracted by the promise of less development, and faster deployment. They chose the Apereo Foundation Central Authentication Service (CAS), an open source WebSSO application that provides authentication for local and cloud-based applications.

UniTime and the Faculty of Arts at Masaryk University

When the Faculty of Arts at Masaryk University was faced with building renovation, the old manual timetabling process was no longer sufficient. "This class has always been in this room on Monday morning" and "this professor likes this room" just wasn't going to cut it. They adopted and adapted UniTime, and schedules were published eight weeks after adoption. 

Apereo. It's about freedom.

Free to license. Free to adapt. Free to innovate.
