Data Manager
Import data quickly, cleanly, and compliantly
All teams handle data from various external sources; UCAS fair barcode scans, contact lists, spreadsheets of school data, and partner CSV files or other external 3rd party data sources. When that data isn’t captured directly inside Student CRM, it still needs a reliable, compliant way in.
Data Manager makes importing external data fast, accurate, and secure. It keeps every record connected, so your team can act quickly on new information and maintain a clean, unified student database — ensuring all records meet GDPR compliance.
