AdvisorTrac is the ultimate management software for advisement and counseling centers. Perhaps the most unique feature of AdvisorTrac is that it is web-based. Advisors/Counselors, students and administrators can access their records via the web. Our system is secure, so unauthorized access is not even a possibility. AdvisorTrac allows users the ability to get reports, demographics, make requests, manage scheduling and manage center resource materials at their own convenience, import data directly from other products, systems or formats currently being utilized, allows an optional bar-code reader or card scanner can be utilized for logging in and out, send email notifications, and much more.
