How Campus compares...

Campus vs CRM Platforms

Campus offers CRM features, but crucially education marketing data and sector intelligence, unlike other CRMs.

Campus is cheaper than leading CRMs, and will deliver your emails via education-dedicated servers that on average generate a 9% higher delivery rate.

Campus can also be used alongside your existing CRM, to then pick up directly in your CRM.

Campus vs Buying Data

For data accuracy (Campus = 600K updates per month), money reinvested into the database’s development (Campus = £750K/year), opt-in consent of UK contacts (Campus = 40%), no other education data source matches Campus.

On a cost-per-record comparison, considering Campus gives you access to a minimum of 803K records plus other marketing features, it is also one of the most cost-effective data sources available.

Campus vs Emailing Platforms

Unique to Campus, your emails are sent via education-dedicated servers. This means education content from education businesses is sent to targeted education audiences. This results in higher engagement rates and ultimately enhances Campus’s sender reputation to school filters. On average Campus gets 9% more emails into teachers’ inboxes than generic emailing systems.

Campus vs DIY

Building your own data is the most expensive route to your education audience. For a fraction of the price, Campus will give you access to a larger database (minimum 803K records), a more accurate database (£750K/year invested in its development), and a continually updated database (600k updates per month), without any of the internal data management headaches the DIY approach would bestow on you.

Campus vs Education Agencies

Education agencies manage a strategy for you, Campus gives you the tools to manage it in-house. Most agencies rent their servers from third parties, Campus servers are owned and education-dedicated, resulting in more emails hitting teachers’ inboxes.

Finally, on average Campus is 83% cheaper over 12 months compared with outsourcing your marketing to an education agency. If you would prefer to outsource, then we recommend our sister company, Sprint Education.

Campus vs Generic Agencies

Generic agencies will manage your strategy, but may have little experience in marketing to schools, and will likely not have any education data to launch your campaigns to.

Campus gives you the education data, education dedicated servers (generating on average, 9% more emails to inboxes), plus the option to use its team of education experts to develop your strategy/content.

What Campus users say

Tre Christopher, Director Dandelion Learning

We have already had excellent responses to our campaigns and also love the user friendly, intuitive style of the product.

Having recently bought into Campus, we're absolutely delighted with the database and with the service provided. The team are friendly and approachable as well as being very knowledgeable.

The system goes above and beyond what we imagined and has met all of our marketing and sales needs. I can honestly say that Campus is by far the best value for money that I could find and offers the most diverse and comprehensive product.

Mike Southern, Co-Founder Stage-Ed

We’re now able to engage with new teachers, getting to know our target audience, and developing our relationships with current customers.

Like everyone else we were really worried about both the short and long-term effects COVID would have on our business as we rely on a functioning education system for us to operate.

We needed to up our engagement and generate more leads from schools. Campus has been invaluable in helping us do this.

Jaysica Marvell, Manager Herts for Learning

Campus is a fantastic platform for businesses marketing towards education.

With the ability to target specific audiences within the education sector, this provides us with marketing strategies unlike ordinary mailing platforms.

The build and drag capabilities within the email module is highly functional and editable with features that provide detailed adjustments.

Ian Richardson, MD Schudio

Campus has had a huge, direct impact on the growth of our business.

I have no doubt that it's played a massive part in increasing turnover by 40%. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Will Huntingdon, CEO Cross-Curricular

I think Campus is amazing. It's helped my business grow astronomically this past year.

I'm so happy I came on board. Campus has helped us target and retarget our education customers and find new ones with ease, whilst the Campus support team are very friendly and helpful.

Kerry Harwood, CEO Animaphonics

We’ve gone from a contact list of about 30 schools to nearly 800 within 6 months.

We've also got 99 schools on a trial for this term (really annoyed we didn’t get the full 100!), which is way beyond any of our goals.

We’ve only been using Campus for 6 months, so couldn't be happier!

Chris Cowan, Co-Founder Loudmouth Education

Campus is an awesome system, it is easy to use, and streamlines all of our processes.

The leads just keep coming through, we're all a bit overwhelmed by the response. It is fantastic of course, we just weren't quite prepared for the success that Campus would bring.

Sally Weatherly, Director Guzled

Campus has revolutionised the way I attract and interact with teachers.

It was super easy to get started, especially with the ongoing support from the Campus team.

The whole process from collecting qualified leads to closing sales has been expertly combined into one crazily useful education database.

Campus has allowed me to target my email marketing more effectively and I am delighted with the visible growth in my customer base, even within a few weeks of using Campus.

Tim Earnshaw, Director My Happy Mind

Bottom line is the platform has delivered very strong results for us and delivered an exceedingly strong ROI. We would happily recommend Campus to anybody looking to sell to the education sector.

Their product gives us at Happy Mind great reach to the teacher audience we want to market to, it's easy to use and has a strong feature set for our needs, without the bells and whistles of other marketing platforms that you pay for but seldom if ever use and which add to the complexity of the products making them less usable.

Good software without good support is only half the need met though, and in this regard Campus really excels and stands head and shoulders above all other vendors in terms of responsiveness and quality of support.
