A few weeks ago, the Tambellini Group released an abbreviated version of the Tambellini StarChart™:  2024 Advising and Degree Planning. We were delighted to see Stellic’s recognition as a Commander in the report’s preview.

The Tambellini Group is a leading higher education analyst firm whose experts are uniquely positioned to understand and solve the toughest challenges at our institutions. Their approach includes the Tambellini StarChart™ – a visualization tool to help traditional higher ed institutions navigate the current technology landscape through the lens of usability and innovation, as they’ve found those components to be the two biggest drivers for how technology leaders evaluate solutions that would best fit their institution.

This year’s StarChart™ mapped twelve degree planning and advising tools in the U.S. market along the axes of usability and innovation. The data and input come from Tambellini analysts, advisors, researchers, vendor response teams, and vendor customers.  

Stellic is positioned as a Commander – solutions that excel in both categories of usability and innovation. Commanders set the benchmark for what’s possible and push the boundaries of technology and user-centric design to new heights. These solution providers don’t just do things well, but “they drive the industry forward”, according to Tambellini. 

For us at Stellic, the StarChart™ gives us reason to believe that we’ve kept our focus right, and that we’re possibly on track to make a lasting difference in higher education. Ultimately, we hope that it guides many institutions toward technology that can best meet the needs of their students and stakeholders – regardless of the provider.
