The Low-Risk Route to Digital Transformation in Higher Education
Working with Crimson, your university can realise the potential of your investment in Microsoft's low-code/no-code platform to transform your institution. At a time when higher education faces ever greater challenges, Crimson helps you unlock new opportunities to deliver outstanding levels of student satisfaction and greater global market share.
From recruitment to alumni, build intelligent student experiences
Get ready to gain a 360-degree view of students. See how they interact with your events, marketing and student support - all on a single platform that covers the student lifecycle, including:
- Student attraction and recruitment
- Student admissions management
- Student support and wellbeing
- Alumni and fundraising management
With Crimson, your university can leverage Microsoft’s platform to personalise content at every student touchpoint, starting with student attraction.
And a single self-service portal provides a superior student experience, from application right through to graduation.


Automate processes along every step of the student journey
Now’s the time to put an end to labour-intensive manual processes.
Working with Crimson you can automate and accelerate student enrolment, using artificial intelligence to scan and validate academic evidence and passports for international applications.
And while your team can personally handle more challenging student enquiries, let Crimson support you with building virtual assistant chatbots to automatically handle more common enquiries.
Gain insight into your data to drive better decision making
Data is everywhere in and outside your university – let’s use it to supercharge your strategy.
Working with Crimson you can connect data and build dashboards to identify at-risk students, predict course profitability and identify new synergies between your institution and your applicants that will drive more personalised offers.
And Crimson’s data gurus can help you decipher hidden trends in HESA data, as well as pinpoint the top few actions that have the biggest swing on your NSS scores.
