As education providers across Europe struggle to implement and develop their digital transformations, many top Swiss universities are turning to daylight AG for agile and sector-centric solutions.
Future-proofing course management systems is not a straightforward affair. While technology evolves and looks forward, developers must also consider what came before and how their modern creations can be connected to old, unsupported technology.
The capability to address both is what has made daylight AG one of Switzerland's most successful enterprise software developers. Recently, the company published a number of case studies detailing several successful deployments of its eponymous software at some of the country's premier scientific universities.

One of the articles recounts the project with ETH Zurich, one of Switzerland's pre-eminent scientific universities. According to the case study, the university’s system was no longer supported by the original developer, prompting it to seek a new provider that could integrate with its old systems. daylight was adopted as a "central back office application," connecting pre-existing management software and authentication systems. "We didn’t want to change processes or start a major reorganization exercise, but instead map the existing processes one-to-one," a school official was quoted as saying. "In retrospect, the project can be described as very successful."
Another case study describes the deployment of daylight at the Intercantonal University of Applied Sciences in Special Needs Education (HfH). The new school owners wanted a "flexible, future-proof platform," and daylight was deemed suitable for the school's list of requirements, which called for management software capable of handling multiple roles while integrating with the school's existing technology stack. According to school officials, daylight was able to cover all requirements "straight out of the box," with the exception of harmonizing HfH with the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System. daylight AG's solution was a custom expansion to the software that addressed this specific issue.

daylight was designed to improve course and examination management capabilities for universities and technical colleges in Zurich. Thanks to daylight's customizability, users can streamline course administration, improve scheduling, and increase efficiency to stay competitive in Switzerland's renowned higher education sector.
The daylight AG platform allows schools, colleges, and universities to define and structure their educational offerings, improving presentation and navigation for students and teachers alike. The software automates course registrations, re-registrations, and cancellations with guided procedures for applicants, relieving admin teams of manual processing.
The daylight platform is available as either locally installed software or as a SaaS product. For either option, the team can integrate the software into a client’s existing IT environment, customizing parameters according to the provider’s requirements and preferred workflows.
Besides educational institutions, daylight has been used in other industries, particularly by training and personnel development professionals within their organizations.
