Cheyney University of Pennsylvania chooses QuickLaunch to Transform End-User Experience

Chicago, IL – Mar 10, 2020: Cheyney University of Pennsylvania, a public historically black university, selects QuickLaunch to solve their identity challenges. The partnership will transform the end user experience by providing one-click secure access to all applications and streamline user access management across the institution.

Before the partnership with QuickLaunch, Cheyney University was using AD Manager, a product by ManageEngine, to provision student accounts into their SIS - PowerCampus. The process of provisioning was accompanied by additional custom scripts which was costly and cumbersome and drained IT productivity and exacerbated operational costs.

QuickLaunch, as a true partner, provided its AI-driven iPaaS platform as a one-stop shop for the institution as it came with multiple capabilities such as Single Sign-On, Smart Password Manager with MFA, Adaptive Authentication, User Self-Registration and Automated Provisioning.

Having a single vendor in place for all their identity and access management needs not only enhanced the end user experience, but also provided a single communication channel to Cheney University for all their identity related challenges.

QuickLaunch will now help Cheyney University to manage digital identities across the institution while streamlining user access management and control. Cheyney University will be able to automate user the onboarding process as users (students, staff and faculty) will now receive a welcome letter over email with a registration link. They can click on the link to setup their security profile and login to their portal using their own password.

QuickLaunch provisioning engine will help the IT administrator to provision users faster without using any custom scripts and the deprovisioning process will be even faster. At glance, QuickLaunch will help Cheney University to manage digital identities, provide one-click secure access to multiple applications, allow users to reset passwords without IT intervention using multiple factors, detect high risk logins with reports, automate first time user onboarding processes and automate the entire user provisioning process.

Products Offered Single Sign-On, Smart Password Manager with MFA, Adaptive Authentication, User Self-Registration, and Automated Provisioning
Applications to be Integrated Ellucian PowerCampus, Desire2Learn, Office 365, PowerFAIDS, TargetX
