Why Themis

Choosing a Student Information System is one of the most consequential technology decisions an institution can make. It affects every department, every process, and every student. Here’s why institutions choose Themis.

Built by People Who Run Higher Education Themis wasn’t built by a generic software company and adapted for education. It was created by professionals working inside higher education who lived with the limitations of existing systems every day. Our founding team includes the Group Head of IT at Ireland’s largest private higher education institute and the CEO of Ireland’s leading enrolment and admissions platform provider. That sector knowledge is embedded in every feature, every workflow, and every design decision.

One Integrated Platform, Not a Patchwork Many institutions run separate systems for registrations, timetabling, assessments, finance, and reporting — then spend enormous effort keeping them in sync. Themis brings all of these together in a single platform with a single data model. When a student registers, their record flows through to timetabling, assessments, finance, and reporting without manual intervention or data re-entry.

Standalone Modules If You Need Them Not ready for a full SIS migration? Themis modules like Exams & Assessment and Timetable & Attendance can be deployed standalone, integrating with your existing systems via our data migration engine. This lets you start with the area of greatest need and expand at your own pace, minimising disruption.

Implementation That Understands Your Reality We don’t hand you software and walk away. Every Themis deployment is led by a team that understands higher education operations — from academic calendar structures and QQI requirements to INIS reporting obligations. Our implementation approach includes data migration, tailored configuration, training, and ongoing support.

Actively Used at Scale Themis is in production use today, managing hundreds of thousands of applicants and learners across further and higher education institutions. This isn’t a prototype or a roadmap – it’s a mature platform handling real institutional workloads.
