Case Study: Dallas Independent School District achieves faster student account creation with Visual Click Software’s DSRAZOR

Dallas ISD Reduces Account Creation Time by 50% using DSRAZOR

Dallas Independent School District needed a reliable way to create and manage student accounts across 140 NetWare servers for more than 160,000 students. Its freeware tool failed inconsistently, and Novell’s iManager was not suited for large-scale account creation or simple password/account management, creating a bottleneck for campus technologists.

Visual Click Software implemented DSRAZOR for eDirectory/NDS and NetWare, giving Dallas ISD a customizable, point-and-click solution with strong support and easier administration. The result was a 50% reduction in account creation time, dropping from 30–60 minutes to 15–30 minutes, while also improving productivity, simplifying troubleshooting, and enabling technologists to manage accounts more efficiently.
