Case Study: Charles Sturt University achieves 3x faster project delivery and a streamlined student experience with Boomi

Charles Sturt University Streamlines Student Experience, Supercharges Project Delivery via APIs With Boomi

Charles Sturt University, Australia’s largest regional university serving 40,000 students, set out to improve the end-to-end student experience but was hamstrung by a decade-old, bespoke integration landscape. Students faced repetitive data entry during enrollment and IT teams spent months on maintenance and custom integrations, creating a persistent bottleneck that slowed new services and project delivery.

The university adopted Boomi’s low-code iPaaS to expose data as APIs and replace time-consuming ETL work, enabling faster, more reliable integrations. Results included a threefold reduction in project timelines (from 18 to 6 months), migration of 109 integrations and decommissioning of 54 legacy processes, data load times cut from 16 hours to 20 minutes, and automated monthly platform updates—freeing IT to focus on improving student and staff experiences.
