Single sign-on is probably one of the most in-demand online services, yet the hardest (it seems) to find. Institutions work to ensure all their services can be accessed with one login, and make use of service like EduRoam to provide access to visitors. Ellucian, "known for its enterprise resource planning and student information systems platforms," works with roughly 150 partners and feels this need acutely, which explains why it has launched Experience. "it also intends the new platform to serve as a hub around which new modules, called 'cards.'" All very nice, but real single sign-on won't exist until it is removed from the domain of application providers.
