Transact IDX® transforms and streamlines campus workflows,
improves productivity, and provides substantial benefits to
colleges and universities, including:
- Reduced IT overhead. Studies show that moving to a
cloud-native platform can reduce IT operational costs by up to 20%
by eliminating the need for on-premises infrastructure maintenance,
upgrades, management, and scaling, which consume valuable IT
resources. With Transact IDX®, schools utilize Transact's expert
resources and cloud solutions, allowing the colleges to focus IT
personnel on more strategic initiatives.
- Enhanced security. The need for security and compliance
has never been greater, and higher education is no exception. With
a managed security program, including encryption, vulnerability
scanning, embedded access controls, and continuous monitoring,
schools using IDX can have peace of mind that they’re compliant and
secure.
- High availability and reliability. IDX guarantees high
availability and reliability with its resilient geo-redundant cloud
infrastructure, minimizing downtime and ensuring continuous access
to critical applications.
- Enhanced user experience. Cardholder management has been
significantly simplified with global search capabilities, summary
overviews, and color-coded icons that identify problem areas,
making it easier for authorized administrators to manage accounts
and modify credentials securely from any internet-connected
browser.
- Expanded integration capabilities. The latest release
includes multiple integration technologies for easy third-party
integrations and a certified solution marketplace, supporting a
vast ecosystem of over 200 partners.
Key features of the new release include:
- Simplified credential management. Enhances security and
administrative efficiency by allowing more controlled management of
credential distributions and value assignments—crucial for managing
access and identities on large campuses.
- Revamped meal plan management. Quickly create block or
traditional reset style meal plans. Plans can be easily configured
to match how they are advertised and sold, with components like
weekly meals, guest meals, and stored value all associated with a
single plan. This streamlines meal plan management and reporting, a
central aspect of student life.
- Door access and security integration. Configure door
access control providers, get real-time cardholder data, and
monitor errors in one interface. Credentials go straight to
certified access control systems, hassle-free.
- Proactive accessibility. Ongoing accessibility testing
and engagement with the latest developments in assistive
technologies ensure that solutions and services anticipate future
needs. Each year, Transact publishes a Voluntary Product
Accessibility Template (VPAT) for IDX, prepared by a third-party
auditor, validating this commitment. This approach continually
enhances the accessibility and user experience of solutions, making
the campus environment inclusive for all users.
"With IDX we are continuously delivering advanced features and
new innovations to our cloud-native platform. The Transact IDX®
Summer release is particularly exciting because it marks a
milestone with new features that together deliver the most powerful
campus management, seamlessly providing credentials, payments, and
security throughout colleges and universities,” said Rasheed
Behrooznia, senior vice president and general manager of Campus ID
at Transact. “Think of our system as the backbone of a thriving
campus ecosystem, and our solutions help bridge all users,
connecting them to a future-ready, modern, mobile, and
user-friendly experience. I’m proud of our dedication to optimizing
campus experience, whether through accessibility or the adoption of
innovative technologies, and I’m thankful for our opportunity to
bring these technologies to our clients."
