Kuali Build Overview

What is Kuali Build?

Kuali Build is accelerating digital transformation in higher education. In today's digital era, colleges and universities are in dire need of seamless, integrated, and user-friendly platforms. Kuali Build addresses these needs head-on. Here's how: Mobile-Friendly Forms: No more PDFs or paper forms. With Kuali Build, you can create branded online forms that not only look authentic to your institution but are also mobile-responsive. This ensures that students, staff, and faculty have a consistent experience regardless of the device they use. Advanced Workflow Automations: The tool supports sophisticated workflow automations, complete with branching logic. This ensures smooth operations, reduces administrative burdens, and enhances user experiences. Distributed Management & Citizen Developers: One of Kuali Build's standout features is its capability for distributed management. Departments across a campus can take the reins, creating their own forms and workflows. Empowering these "citizen developers" not only fosters innovation within departments but also unburdens Central IT, letting them focus on broader strategic initiatives. Integration & Data Governance: Say goodbye to data silos! The robust API ensures that Kuali Build melds effortlessly with existing systems. The direct consequence? A streamlined flow of data and reinforced data governance. Preventing "Rogue" Moves: We understand the impulse departments might have to implement their own solutions when faced with challenges. Kuali Build offers them the control they crave, ensuring they remain within the bounds of vetted, secure solutions rather than resorting to potentially insecure third-party systems. Superior Security: Since Kuali Build is the singular, vetted platform used across departments, it offers unmatched security compared to a motley of different third-party applications. Clean & User-Friendly UX: One of its greatest assets is its intuitive user experience. The platform is designed to be approachable, allowing even those without extensive tech backgrounds to craft advanced forms and workflow automations without needing perennial support from IT. For higher education IT leaders aiming for a unified, efficient, and forward-thinking digital strategy, Kuali Build is the ultimate choice.

There are a few quirks that thankfully Kuali typically is aware of and working to change/fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kuali Build solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kuali allows our campus employees to create forms and apps that benefit their departments. The forms/apps can be as simple as a questionnaire or as complicated as a multi-step approval process for scholarship applications.

What do you like best about Kuali Build?

We love that each form or app can have customized routing and approvals. Being able to link apps to one another helps with data integrity and accuracy, reducing the chances of typos or errors. Kuali Build has helped us stay organized and reduced the time spent on data entry and upkeep. Its user friendly and training our faculty/staff on how to navigate the platform and is pretty quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kuali Build?

I dont have anything that i dislike about Kuali Build - its been a complete game changer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kuali Build solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using Kuali Build has allowed us to automate a lot of our processes that used to require multiple emails to get various approvals/signatures. This has reduced delays with processing forms and payments - we use teh setting that allows Kuali to send reminders to someone that has a task or approval pending in their Action List.

What do you like best about Kuali Build?

The ease in developing forms and the efficiency this tool brings to processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kuali Build?

There are no downsides that I have discovered. I just wish I knew more of how to utilize all the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kuali Build solving and how is that benefiting you?

I work in a higher education institution and we have many forms that need several layers of approval. This platform allows us to automate the approval sequence by routing the completed document (with attachments) through a defined series of approvers. This expedites the amount of time it takes to get things approved. It also minimizes the time lost trying to search for paper forms and determining which signer's desk its sitting on. This has accelerated our ability to approve documents 100%! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Kuali Build?

The most important thing for me is that it has easy to use features that really make sense for higher education use cases.

this product meets our most important business requirements many of them exceptionally.

I really value how easy it is for people to jump in and use this without a lot of training.

The support and community of this product is what I wish it was for all other products and so helpful.

I value that this can be incredibly fast and easy for simple use cases but also quite extensible for those more complex solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kuali Build?

There are a few growing pains that I think this product will get through soon based on their development so far. the ability for default values, complex calculations, some showing and hiding of workflow statuses, and being able to filter dropdowns of users by roles on my top examples of this.

I also look forward to native integrations with products like Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kuali Build solving and how is that benefiting you?

this reduces how much of our business processes are occurring over email which is so easy to lose track of. another problem we've had is that users have to get it support to build functional solutions which is solved with the citizen developer model of this product. electronic signatures are a huge win as well as mobile responsiveness and browser compatibility. retrieving SSO metadata is also fantastic Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
