Case Study: Barton Community College achieves rapid cloud ERP migration and $250K/year savings with Ellucian
A Ellucian Case Study
Moving to cloud in the midst of a crisis
Barton Community College needed to modernize its ERP and shift to remote operations when the COVID-19 pandemic struck. The college pushed forward with an aggressive under‑one‑year cloud migration using Ellucian solutions — Ellucian Banner, Ellucian Cloud, and Ellucian Degree Works — and kept its planned March 23, 2020 go‑live despite calls to postpone.
Working with vendor Ellucian as its strategic partner, Barton used a solid project plan, weekly stakeholder meetings, and detailed issue tracking to complete the migration in 10 months. The Ellucian implementation delivered an estimated $250,000 per year in hard‑cost savings and produced a 4.33% year‑over‑year increase in summer registrations in the first weekend after the migration.
