When we purchased Edify, the intent was to create a central structure so that we could organize all of that data and derive a lot more value from it. And we've really been able to deliver on the organization and the data collection aspect. I would say that Edify is our ‘yes’ button. I'm often in meetings, and people will say, ‘You know, it would be great if we could do this’ and Edify really allows our team to say, ‘Yes, we can. That is totally possible.'

We went in with some pretty high expectations about what we were going to get and it is absolutely meeting and exceeding my expectations. Other partners sell high and deliver low, EAB sold high and are delivering high.

Tobey Robison, Chief Information Officer

Heidelberg University

Having a vendor agnostic analytics platform has been an incredible value we did not anticipate, Edify has vastly exceeded what I expected.
