Global outlook of the SIS market for higher education
Technavio’s market research analysts predict the global student information system (SIS) market for higher education to grow steadily during the next four years and post a CAGR of almost 13% by 2020. This industry research report identifies the replacement of legacy and homegrown SIS to be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of this market in the coming years. The constant introduction of new modules and features to serve the evolving demands of customers has shortened the life cycle of such systems. This has resulted in compelling vendors to develop student information systems software that offer features such as advanced reporting and real-time integration. Moreover, SIS vendors have also started working in close collaboration with educational institutions to offer customized solutions. This in turn, willl drive educational institutions to replace their existing software with advanced versions, driving the demand for student information systems.
Digital classrooms have incorporated advanced technological learning aids such as interactive whiteboards and 3D printing which improves student interactivity and knowledge retention. This induces educational institutions to increase their investments and include more collaboration, assessment, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in their delivery methods. Educational software is used by higher educational institutions for creating and managing content and in also providing instructional support to educators. The high penetration of the Internet and advances in ICT, will also increase the adoption of educational technology, which consecutively, drives the growth of the market.
