Nuventive Extends Electronic Portfolio Market Leadership with the Immediate Availability of iWebfolio V4
Reliable, Secure, Easy-to-Use SaaS Solution Delivers Comprehensive Value Throughout the Higher Education Market for Institutions, Accrediting Bodies, Faculty and Students
PITTSBURGH, PA, August 25, 2008
– Nuventive, a leading provider of individual and institutional
assessment solutions, today announced the release of iWebfolio
version 4.
The v4 development team focused on significantly
extending the usability, presentation and communication capabilities
of iWebfolio. Key objectives of this release were to deliver
significant enhancements without making iWebfolio unfamiliar
to existing users and to enable new users in all roles get up
to speed and productive as quickly as possible.
The v4 usability focus enhanced many components of the application.
In version 4, Nuventive continued to extend the ability of users
at all levels and in any role within the system to perform their
desired tasks quickly within the iWebfolio framework. Creators
of portfolios will enjoy the benefits of enhanced presentation
capabilities and Nuventive believes that iWebfolio 4 will enhance
the productivity of all users of the application suite.
Institutions Demonstrate Continuous
Improvement Based on Real Data
Educational institutions across a wide spectrum are able to
use data collected by iWebfolio to demonstrate ongoing achievement
of mission, goals and objectives to state, federal and independent
accrediting bodies. Whether combined with TracDat, the market
leading Nuventive solution for institutional performance improvement
or as the system used to collect data for other tools, iWebfolio
provides a vital solution for demonstrably connecting student
academic performance to institutional performance.
Pure SaaS Solution Delivers Low Overhead
and Maintenance Expense
The SaaS (Software as a Service) model enables institutions
to focus resources on education and learning rather than manual
administration and support of aging legacy technology platforms.
iWebfolio adopted this advanced technology at the inception
of the product in 2002 and continues to adopt the best practices
of this rapidly advancing technology platform.
Continuity in Organization and Deployment
(Templates)
The iWebfolio solution enables institutions to create a variety
of templates to support the evolving needs of every facet of
the institution.
Integration
Nuventive collaborates very closely with industry leaders to
ensure that data created and managed in iWebfolio is closely
tied to enhancing educational experience between faculty and
students. The ability to pass key information back and forth
between faculty and students provides unique benefits for every
component of the system including students, faculty and the
institution.
Performance, Packaging and Pricing
Since its inception, scalability has been a hallmark of iWebfolio.
In iWebfolio v4, Nuventive has significantly enhanced the site
license and pricing options, so that every institution will
be able to satisfy their campus or system-wide ePortfolio needs.
“At Nuventive, we have a focus on continuous improvement
throughout the company”, said Dave Raney, Nuventive CEO.
“iWebfolio version 4 represents an exciting step forward
with improvements driven from the excellent feedback from our
collaborator/user community. We enjoy and value the opportunity
to work with our customers to continually enhance our solutions.”
