By providing users with single sign-on access to their enterprise applications, institutions receive a variety of benefits, some of these include:

· Eliminating password fatigue from creating different user ID and password combinations

· Reducing time spent re-entering login criteria for the same user

· Lowering IT costs due to lower IT help desk calls regarding passwords

· Increasing productivity and time management for both students and administrators by eliminating multiple sign-in barriers.

With the option of hosting the myCampus K-12 QuickLaunch single sign-on solution on the CampusEAI private Cloud, school districts can eliminate up front capital expenditures, reduce utilization of their technical resources and ensure high performance availability, stability and security.

The myCampus K-12 QuickLaunch solution is available as part of the myCampus K-12 Community Edition, a version of the popular myCampus K-12 portal that is free for institutions looking to get started with myCampus K-12 single sign-on.

We are pleased to provide our members with a solution to their unique enterprise application access challenges. By using the myCampus K-12 QuickLaunch for single sign-on, institutions will only have to use a single set of login credentials, such as a password and user ID, in order to access all features and systems, while still having their information kept safe and secure.
