Why use LearnSprout?
Once and Done Integration
By using LearnSprout to handle data integration, you need only map to our API once. From that point on, you will be able to connect to the leading student information systems without having to worry about implementing, maintaining and supporting a patchwork of integration methods.
Experience
Our team includes engineers and product managers from Facebook, Microsoft, Google, Adobe and Pearson (PowerSchool) who have years of experience building scalable products that support millions of users. In-house expertise is available for customized solution consultations.
Direct Database Integration
LearnSprout pulls data from the SIS through a direct database connection as opposed to going through the application layer of the SIS. Data extracted through SIS export or "AutoSend" utilities can be inaccurate and limited in scope.
Change Log
LearnSprout's data ingestion process identifies the data that has been modified since the previous import from the source SIS. As a developer, you have the option to query only for the subset of data that has been changed since your last request, which enables you to conserve resources and improve performance in your application.
Support
We will work closely with your development team, leveraging best practices and maintaining open lines of communication to ensure a robust solution that will grow your products’ reach. Our engineers guarantee a 24hr response time via our support email.
