No alumni relations staff has time on its hands with too little to do. AlumSys will automate many routine tasks and free up staff time for more creative and productive tasks.

   Before AlumSys, it took Pepperdine University staff time to process job listings, resumes, and "business referrals." The interactive online versions of these functions in AlumsSys are not only low maintenance -- they are much more heavily used by students, alumni, and employers alike.

   Before AlumSys, everyone in the Pepperdine alumni house dreaded what they called "social calls" -- alumni calling up to get current address information for former friends or roommates. Those calls have now all but disappeared. AlumSys has helped alumni relations by empowering alumni to help themselves. The online directory in AlumSys with keyword searching is unrivalled for speed and ease of use.
