Education Cloud Consulting
& Implementation Services
As a Salesforce Education Cloud consultant, Cloudsheer gives universities and K-12 institutions one platform for the entire learner journey - recruitment, admissions, student success, and alumni engagement - with built-in FERPA awareness.
The Costly Problems Education Cloud Eliminates
Recruitment, admissions, and enrollment teams work from disconnected systems with no unified view of the student journey
Student 360 unifies inquiry, application, enrollment, and engagement into one record
Advisors lose track of at-risk students because alerts and academic signals never surface in one place
Success Plans with Einstein early-alert models surface at-risk students proactively
Application processing is manual, slow, and frustrates prospective students with long response times
Action Plans and Intelligent Document Automation cut application turnaround by 60%
Alumni and donor relationships fade because development teams cannot see meaningful engagement signals
Constituent 360 with Engagement Plans surfaces giving opportunities at the right moment
Faculty and staff cannot collaborate on student support across registrar, advising, financial aid, and career services
Service Console with role-based routing connects every support team in one workspace
