Enflux vs HelioCampus Course Evaluations & Surveys

Enflux is a higher-education analytics and decision support system for academic leaders and health professions programs. It brings together information from learning management systems, assessment tools, surveys and exam results, then provides dashboards for student performance, advising and assessment analysis. Real-time risk indicators can help staff identify students for intervention, while reports support accreditation and curriculum evaluation. Enflux aligns curriculum, assessments and outcomes with accreditation standards and includes reporting and audit trails. Its CompetencyGenie tool uses AI to tag ExamSoft exam items and map them to competencies; ExamSoft users can access it through a Chrome extension. A single instance can cover university systems or multiple programs, with campus and program filters. The cloud-based service runs online without local installation and offers single sign-on. Enflux says data is encrypted in transit and at rest on AWS, and states that it is SOC 2 Type 2 certified and FERPA compliant. The platform's price is available on request; the CompetencyGenie extension is listed at free, and a free trial is available.

HelioCampus Course Evaluations & Surveys helps U.S. colleges and universities create, schedule, deploy, and analyze evaluations and surveys for institutional feedback. Surveys can be organized at college, department, or institution level using customizable hierarchical templates and question libraries, including dynamic questions based on Course Learning Outcomes. Course evaluations include student, instructor, and general course types, scheduled at the beginning, midpoint, or end of a term. Automated notifications can go to students and instructors, and students can complete evaluations through their learning management system. Integrations support multiple LMS connections through LTI and native APIs, including Blackboard, Canvas, D2L Brightspace, and Moodle. Student course evaluations may be anonymous; instructor evaluations cannot. AI sentiment analysis supports bulk review, but HelioCampus must enable it and provision access through role-based access. Participants need a platform account and institutional single sign-on. The maker says it is FERPA compliant and lists ISO 27001:2013 and SOC 2 Type 2 certifications. Pricing is on request.
