openSIS Arrives

Open Solutions for Education (OS4Ed) has released their new open source SIS, openSIS. This release abandons the inclusion of Centre in the name and marks the end of their relationship with the Miller Group, who was an original partner in OS4Ed.

This release brings AJAX into the interface with sliding menus and fast page load times. Other important features include field level validation and the removal of HTMLDoc, which required specific settings for different OS's. openSIS also includes an automated installer for Windows, which is very nice and helps the beginning user to get up and running quickly.
