"We have been using the Envelope system for enrolments for several years now and have recently purchased the complete system including the data/returns functions.  Our staff find it easy to navigate and very intuitive.  The ongoing user support is second to none, the team are flexible and take the time to ensure you understand the system and everything it can deliver for your college.  It is by far the best all-encompassing system we have used and it ticks all the boxes for audit and OFSTED requirements with all the required student data in one place securely.“

"I’ve worked with several MIS systems, and Envelope stands out as the best. It’s incredibly easy to use, and the support has been fantastic. It’s such a relief knowing I can always count on the team to be just a phone call away for any queries I have."

"One of the many great aspects of Envelope for our team is its seamless support with the ILR process, not only for us but also our subcontractors as they are uploading ILR files on a monthly basis. Using Envelope, we can easily merge these files, enhancing our operational efficiency. Additionally, Envelope provides subcontractors with the option to input their data directly if they find it more convenient, adding another layer of flexibility to our workflow."

“Envelope is not just a student enrolment tool, I use it to plan our next Curriculum, keep and eye on course finances, check learners’ progression and support needs as well as running ad hoc reports as required. We now run the bulk of our business using this system and every user from our receptionist up to the principal find it easy to navigate.  As an all-encompassing system for us it is second to none!"

"As a Business Manager I could not have asked for a better system than Envelope, it is user friendly for my staff, tracks all the essentials like attendance, student performance, student support needs, finance and much more.  It is our sole system from student enrolment through to data submissions for funding and it covers all of our needs and more!"
