Adoption Of Harris School Solutions' AptaFund Continues To Grow Across Multiple States

Online, April 16, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Harris School Solutions is pleased to announce that over twenty new school districts have adopted AptaFund in the past six months. AptaFund is a comprehensive fund accounting solution for small-to medium-sized school districts.

Two of Harris' newest clients in Kansas include Goddard USD 265 and Haysville USD 261.

Haysville USD 261 desired a web-based Fund Accounting solution along with a single source database. Finance Director Clint Schutte stated "the upgrade to AptaFund is creating changes in our procedures. These changes are generating greater efficiencies and reducing data errors."

Doug Maxwell, Finance Director at Goddard USD 265, stated "given the cuts to our IT department, the fact that Harris could host our data was really appealing to me." He also added, "other factors included Harris support, ease of conversion from an existing Harris product and a competitive price."

"We really like that the data is live, and updates made by any department are immediately seen by the other department. Also, all building staff initiating requisitions see their budget available and know it's the most current number." stated Maxwell.

Some of the additional AptaFund signups over the past six months include: two in California; four schools districts in Colorado; one in Iowa; five in Kansas; one Michigan school district; five Nebraska school districts; two New Mexico school districts and one in Texas.

"Hosting AptaFund for our school districts, meets a growing need to improve operation efficiencies," stated Deana Kovalcik, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Our new Data Center and Technical Services deliver a comprehensive turnkey solution to meet that need."
