The 2011 Enterprise Application Market in Higher Education Research Report June 2012 Susan Grajek, Vice President for Data, Research, and Analytics, EDUCAUSE Leah Lang, Senior IT Metrics and Benchmarking Analyst, EDUCAUSE David Trevvett, Information Systems Consultant, EDUCAUSE Executive Summary This ECAR report focuses on EDUCAUSE Core Data Service survey results related to the enterprise application landscape in higher education. The expansion of the CDS survey in 2011 has provided data to answer a range of application-related questions: Which applications are dominated by a handful of solution providers, and which have an almost bewildering range of choice? When is open source a common option? Which are the most frequently outsourced applications, and which are most likely to be managed by system offices? What types of applications are more and less widespread in higher education? Key Findings Almost every college and university (>95%) delivers a set of six core applications: student information, HR/payroll, finance, e-mail (for faculty and staff and for students), learning management, and IT help desk trouble ticketing. Learning/course management systems is the most homogeneous application area, with 94% of institutions using one of only five solution providers. Open-source options are more widespread in LMS and CMS than other application areas. Grants-management solutions both for pre-award and for post-award application are the most commonly homegrown tools among the application areas in our study. Introduction Applications might be the most visible, relevant, and diverse services IT provides to faculty, staff, and students. Students use applications to select and take courses and monitor tuition and financial aid; faculty use them to apply for and manage grants, teach, conduct research, and engage in scholarship; alumni use them to stay connected to their alma maters; and administrators use applications to manage institutional finances, hire and pay staff, manage buildings, purchase goods and services, make data-driven decisions, and promote the institution. Applications are also the largest part of the IT budget in higher education. Information-systems staff accounted for 19% of central IT staff in 2011, 1 and applications also require additional resources from support services, infrastructure, and data centers. There are also significant hardware and licensing costs associated with application implementation and maintenance 2012 EDUCAUSE and Susan Grajek, Leah Lang, and David Trevvett. CC by-nc-nd
Application diversity has a fractal quality: Just as there are many different types of applications, so, too, are there many different solutions for any given application type. What does the application landscape look like in higher education? Which applications are dominated by a handful of solution providers, and which have an almost bewildering range of choice? When is open source a common option? Which are the most frequently outsourced applications, and which are most likely to be managed by system offices? And what types of applications are more and less widespread in higher education? The expansion of the EDUCAUSE Core Data Service (CDS) survey in 2011 has provided data to answer these questions. The survey asked institutions for information about 16 application areas: Financial Student information HR/payroll Alumni/advancement/development Library Course/learning management system (LMS) Grants management (pre-award) Grants management (post-award) Facilities management Portal Administrative data warehouse/business intelligence Web content management (CMS) Faculty/staff e-mail Student e-mail IT service/help desk trouble ticketing Customer relationship management (CRM) The information in this report was based on 2011 data from the optional Information Systems and ERP module of the CDS. A total of 635 institutions, or 77% of all CDS contributors, completed the module. Findings Almost every college and university (>95%) delivers a set of six core applications: student information, HR/payroll, finance, e-mail (for faculty and staff and for students), learning management, and IT help desk trouble ticketing. Another four applications are widespread, reported by more than three-quarters of all institutions: alumni/advancement/development, library, web content management, and help desk ticket system. Common but not as widespread are facilities management (at 66% of institutions) and administrative data warehouse/business intelligence (62%). Not surprisingly, fewer than half of institutions deliver applications to manage grants, either preaward (38% of institutions) or post-award (40%). Relatively new to higher education are stand-alone customer relationship management applications, which are reported by only 35% of institutions. Vendor Diversity Anyone considering replacing or acquiring an application knows that a wide selection of solutions offers greater choice and greater confusion. We assessed diversity by examining the total number of solution providers and the percentage of the market served by the top-five providers (see Figure 1). Course/learning management system, e-mail for faculty and staff, student information, and alumni/advancement/development were by far the most homogeneous applications. With only 24 different LMS providers in use at CDS-contributing institutions, five providers (including two open source) account for 94% of the LMS market. Institutions choices for faculty and staff e-mail are similarly consistent, with the top-five vendors providing 89% of institutions with faculty/staff e-mail.
Out of a reported 24 different vendors/open-source groups delivering student information applications, five constitute 87% of the market. The market for alumni/advancement/development was similar, with 85% of the market provided by 5 out of 33 total vendors. The most diverse markets are found for web content management (with 89 reported solution providers), facilities management (90), and IT help desk trouble ticketing (77). For these applications, the top-five vendors or open-source groups accounted for half or less than half of the market. Figure 1.

The so-called long tail is another measure of diversity: the percentage of solution providers reported by very few institutions. This measure echoes the patterns above (see Table 1). Application Table 1. Enterprise Applications Market Diversity Percentage of Solution Providers at Fewer Than Four Institutions Number of Solution Providers at Fewer Than Four Institutions Faculty/staff e-mail 59% 13 Portal 59% 19 Financial 61% 19 Data warehouse/business intelligence 65% 20 Customer relationship management (CRM) 65% 22 Student e-mail 65% 25 Course/learning management system (LMS) 67% 16 IT service/help desk trouble ticketing 68% 52 Grants management (pre-award) 71% 24 Web content management (CMS) 73% 65 Alumni/advancement/development 76% 25 Grants management (post-award) 76% 26 Student information 79% 19 Facilities management 80% 72 HR/payroll 81% 38 Library 88% 51 Open Source and Homegrown Open-source options are more widespread in LMS and CMS than other application areas. Two opensource options (Moodle and Sakai) are among the top-five LMS solutions (see Figure 2). Drupal is the second most common CMS solution deployed in higher education institutions. COEUS and Kuali are both in the top-five of pre-award grants management solutions. Three other application areas have one open-source group in the top five: portal (JASIG uportal), IT help desk trouble ticketing (Best Practical, perhaps better known as RT or Request Tracker), and post-award grants management (COEUS). By a wide margin, grants management solutions both for pre-award and for post-award application are the most common homegrown tools among the application areas in our study, with roughly one-third of respondents saying they use applications developed in-house. Portals and data warehouses (both at 16%) were the only other application areas reported as using homegrown solutions at more than one institution in eight.

Limitations of These Data These data provide estimates of the solutions used for higher education enterprise applications, but they come with caveats. Respondents entered the names of the vendors and products they use, as opposed to selecting names from lists. (They were also asked to specify whether solutions were open source, homegrown, or vendor products.) We recoded the data to normalize the many variations in product and vendor names and spellings and to collapse product-vendor solutions into a concise yet still informative set of solutions. We opted not to preserve product versions in the recoding, for example. An illustration of the recoding is shown below: Original Vendor Original Product Recoded Vendor Recoded Product Oracle Campus Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle Oracle Campus Solutions 9.0 People Soft Campus Soultions Oracle Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft 8.9 Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft 9.0 Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle Oracle Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solution Peoplesoft Campus Solutions PS Campus Solutions Oracle Oracle Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions PeopleSoft Campus Solutions PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle PSFT Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions oracle/peoplesoft Campus Solutions Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions oracle/peoplesoft Campus Solutions 9.0 Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions We found many data-entry and classification errors, ranging from benign misspellings to confusion about whether solutions were open-source or vendor to which vendor provided a particular product. Ongoing mergers and acquisitions also lend complexity to these analyses. When these data were analyzed, for example, Datatel and SunGard were separate companies. Many solutions were installed before vendors were acquired. Many respondents continued to use the old names, likely because they have not updated solutions, while other respondents used the new names. Another limitation of these data is that the application categories themselves do not always map cleanly onto a single solution. One example is e-mail: Some respondents specified the e-mail server product (e.g., Microsoft Exchange), while others specified the e-mail client product (e.g,. Microsoft Outlook). We opted to treat these as separate products rather than combine them, and so some of the resulting lists may seem like apples-to-oranges comparisons.
Market Shares The appendix to this report provides the solutions used for each of the 16 application areas. Each area contains a chart visually depicting the most common solutions and a table listing further detail of the same data. In each of the charts, the size of each section is proportional to the market share; red sections indicate homegrown solutions, shades of blue represent vendor products, and green sections represent open-source solutions. Table 2, which contains an overview of each application area s diversity and delivery, can be used as a guide for the data in the appendix. Application Table 2.

Ongoing improvements to the Core Data Service will correspondingly improve the data, and in future years we will have the ability to analyze trends in addition to point-in-time data. Most important to the ongoing development of CDS is understanding how you use the data and which means of analysis and display of the data will best enable you to make decisions about enterprise applications. The higher education application market is extremely diverse and complex. This report provides a very high-level summary of that market, offering both the benefits and the pitfalls of a big-picture view. In a relatively brief glance, we have shown the diversity and patterns of solution providers in
enterprise applications. We intentionally did not assess patterns within institutional type or clusters of solution providers or solution use across applications. Although those analyses would supply additional insights, the big picture brings its own value, providing readers with a convenient summary and ongoing reference.
