Workday, Inc. (WDAY - Free Report) recently announced that prominent education institutions, including DePauw University, Medical College of Wisconsin and the University of Florida, have opted to implement Workday Student, Workday Financial and Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions. The aim is to leverage a unified, cloud-based system driven by financial, human resource and student data to streamline the enrollment process and revenue planning and enhance student experience.

With the mobile application, students can easily search for on-campus jobs, receive payments, connect with advisors and keep track of their progress toward graduation.
Integrating all these advanced features enables education institutions to optimize management of finances, payroll, administration and student services through a single cloud-based system. This solution establishes better coordination within the university ecosystem in a cost-efficient manner.
Workday’s diversified product portfolio continues to yield a steady flow of customers. Its revenue growth continues to be driven by high demand for its HCM and financial management solutions. The company’s cloud-based business model and expanding product portfolio have been the primary growth drivers. Moreover, the growing clout of Workday Prism Analytics and Adaptive Insights business planning cloud offerings hold promise.
