The success of openSIS Community and Professional Edition over the years motivated us to build the next generation product from the ground up. To serve the demand of today’s social network savvy users, we had to think of building a Student Information System in a different way. After two years of rigorous engineering, we built openSIS-Surge. It is built for the cloud using the latest technologies and is secured and scalable. It has a modern responsive design that resizes to fit any form factor. openSIS-Surge, as the name suggests will help your institution surge ahead by increasing Student achievements and Teacher performances. Contact us for a demonstration of the system.
Some of the main features are given below:
Dynamic “live tiles” based dashboard that can display pertinent information. Responsive design that automatically configures the tiles to fit any browser size. Follows Windows ® 8 paradigm.
When displaying a student record, a set of most import information is displayed at the top of the record. That stays constant while browsing thru student’s entire demographic, academic, extracurricular, behavioral and financial information.
When a student’s record is selected, a complete set of information relating to that student is provided at the same screen. While viewing Demographic information, you can see that student’s Attendance, Grades, Scheduling, Billing, Disciplinary information from the same screen in a few clicks.
At installation, openSIS comes with a long list of default fields and categories that can be turned on and off by an user. Custom categories and fields can be created from this screen itself.
Granular level user permission is made available with a list of fields where user can be given read or write access to. The fields are grouped by modules.
Major data entry forms are user created and dynamic. When a custom field is created, it becomes available for inclusion in the form. Every form has a linkable URL that can be published for public access. The link can be embedded to any website to facilitate data entry.
Built in messaging functionality mimics full scale commercial email features. Messages stay secured and within the openSIS environment and does not become public. Messages can be retained for multiple years or archived at the end of each school year.
The system hierarchy feature is provided to implement openSIS as National or State level system that supports multiple regions, divisions and districts. Any three level hierarchy is supported. A whole nation or an entire State can be run out of a single implementation.

Calendar facilitates the user to track and update upcoming events in school. Visual interactive design surges the user practice and becomes easy to define school events.
openSIS provides multiple ways of scheduling students into the system. For walk-in students, a single student is scheduled into multiple available course sections in a few clicks. For group scheduling, multiple students are searched and scheduled into one or more course sections in one shot.
Students and parents can request course registration and administrators can do the same on behalf of the student. Once all the requests are aggregated, an automated scheduling tool can schedule any number of students into the available course sections. You can make multiple schedule runs as you make adjustments and have multiple schedules within a school.
Online applicants receive a welcome email as part of interactive communications. Such emails are in default settings of the system though it can be tweaked for user needs. These emails have hyperlinks linked to the applicant’s form access.
