SSO for Education - why we need section img 1

Education providers such as schools, colleges, and universities are the foundation of learning, growth, and development for young generations across the globe. Most educational institutions and school campuses now have Internet access. Teachers now face the growing challenge of managing such a huge number of logins for so many students as a result of the rising use of online learning.

With the help of these Instant Logins, teachers and students can access the majority of the most used apps in today's classrooms with only a single sign-on or dashboard login. This service is exceptional since it links the sign-on panel with numerous online learning management systems, eliminating the requirement for each student to log in more than once.
