Anthology Celebrates Transformational First Year Serving Over 2,000 Higher Education Institutions Worldwide

Trusted EdTech Leader Achieves Nearly 400 Customer Go-Lives and Launches Anthology Academy to Elevate Higher Education Student Success

Boca Raton, Fla. — September 2, 2021 — Anthology, a leading provider of proven higher education solutions that solve complex challenges associated with the entire learner lifecycle, today announced its significant milestones commemorating its transformational first year as a combined company.

Now serving more than 2,000 higher education institutions with data-driven innovations that address all facets of the collegiate student journey, Anthology closed its fiscal year with nearly 400 solution go-lives and increased overall revenue. As a result, the company was recently honored by Microsoft for outstanding sales achievement and innovation as part of the Microsoft Business Applications 2021/2022 Inner Circle award. Anthology also won the 2021 Tech Edvocate Award for Best Student Information System and Best Higher Education Leader – honoring Chairman and CEO Jim Milton.

“At Anthology, we believe that learners need to be at the center of everything we do. They are all unique and bring different backgrounds and interests in what they are seeking in terms of higher education outcomes,” said Milton. “Over the last year, Anthology has been resolute in our commitment to helping colleges and universities illuminate the right pathways to success for every student through connected data, enabling them to then offer the right combination of academic programs, skills and experiences for successful outcomes.”

After a year working mostly in virtual environments due to the pandemic, Anthology recently held its inaugural user conference – Anthology Together – in person in Dallas, with more than 800 customers, partners and Anthologists in attendance for three days of collaborative and inspiring sessions on leveraging innovation in higher education. Customers presenting ranged from the University of Tennessee Knoxville and Illinois Eastern Community College to University of Texas - Tyler, the Colorado School of Mines Foundation and more.

“After implementing and utilizing Anthology Reach at UT Tyler we have realized many more options to engage with prospective students and measure the effectiveness of our campaigns,” said David Barron, University of Texas – Tyler Associate Vice President for University Enrollment Management. “We are excited about the further development and opportunities to move us forward as an institution by partnering with Anthology.”

Also of note is the recent launch of Anthology Academy, a comprehensive learning platform with extensive educational resources and on-demand training opportunities to elevate overall institutional success with Anthology’s integrated suite of solutions.

Among its key milestones this year, the Anthology Encompass platform enabled 1.3 million fundraising contributions totaling nearly $400 million for customer institutions – mostly comprising small donations – over the last year through customers’ Days of Giving, Giving Tuesday campaigns, and online giving forms.

Designed to harness the collective power of world-class technologies like Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Microsoft Power BI, Anthology’s integrated suite of solutions enables higher education leaders to create more connected campuses for student and institutional success with a focus on delivering insights for decision-making. Delivering on its mission to revolutionize higher education, Anthology’s innovations are designed based on decades of higher education expertise and enable 24/7 institutional access to all information, reports and analytics to empower informed faculty and staff decision making from anywhere.
