Dominican University catalog editors chose Acalog to help improve the school's bulletin revision process, which was prone to errors, particularly in regard to recurring information. Acalog was considered an ideal solution because of its ability to reference recurring content from a shared source location, allowing global updates from a single edit.

Like many colleges, Gaston had struggled for years to maintain the academic catalog as a Word document. Frustrated with the formatting challenges in Word and seeking a more efficient, collaborative, and paperless process, the college chose Acalog for its template-based formatting, and its ability to extend workflow to many editors transparently.

State College of Florida has selected Acalog as a key component of the school’s ongoing automation project. Administrators say Acalog’s robust search and personalization features are critical value adds for students and other campus stakeholders.

Seeking broad improvements in the bulletin revision process, administrators at the University of Southern Indiana chose Acalog for its collaborative, paperless editorial environment. An added benefit for administrators is they are now able to provide access to the bulletin as a true web-based publication.

Colorado Mountain College, in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, was looking for a way to reduce the time-intensive process of producing its catalog. Previously, the paper-based process required staff to manually shuffle paper back and forth to gather the required changes, then manually update the course and program information in the catalog. Once this process was complete, a PDF document was created, which introduced additional formatting challenges, as well as difficult search and navigation within the document. With Acalog, the school will have the ability to track all changes to curriculum information, compare changes and view approvals with each step in the process -- while presenting a dynamic and interactive web and mobile e-catalog for faculty, staff and students.

Weber State University required an online catalog management system that could provide a more advanced workflow system for updating curriculum information. The system they were looking for also required a distributed group of editors through a centralized web-based location for tracking, approvals, routing and groups, while providing a more robust web experience for the end users. Weber State chose Acalog after an extensive review process.

Wartburg College, in Wartburg, Iowa, had previously moved to a web-based catalog in the form of online PDF documents, but was still challenged with a cumbersome update process and lack of cross referencing of catalog content. After extensive review of the marketplace, college administrators selected Acalog to provide a centralized workflow for managing all catalog content including programs, courses and policy information, as well as delivering a vastly more efficient way for students and staff to access critical curriculum information.
