Testimonials:

“I have used most of the big name MIS options and there were frustrations with each, so when I heard about Arbor I was intrigued enough to find a school that used it, and I went with a long list of ‘can it do’ questions. The answer to all of them was yes, and more, and I was sold. It simply does everything you need in an intuitive way, and because it is cloud based it can be accessed from anywhere.”
