SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Salesforce.com Dreamforce Conference -- Model Metrics, the leader in cloud computing services for the enterprise and a premier partner of salesforce.com, and Enrollment Rx, which delivers software solutions specifically designed for student relationship management in the education sector, today announced a partnership to deliver a comprehensive enrollment solution for the education sector.

The announcement was made today at Dreamforce 2009, salesforce.com's user and developer conference.

The Enrollment Rx solution, developed in partnership with Model Metrics, provides an automated, paperless enrollment system for educational institutions. Designed to replace the traditional enrollment process, the solution is proving to be timely and effective as schools look to technology to help cut costs and increase efficiencies.

Built on the Force.com platform, the solution incorporates robust features including a student portal that engages current and prospective students and lets them manage information, interact with staff and advisors, and receive automated updates informing them of incomplete items in their application. For academic institutions, the new Facebook integration facilitates online discussion and recruiting efforts between applicants and additional potential applicants already using the social networking site, further expanding an institution's applicant reach. It helps higher learning institutions manage and track prospects, and keeps students focused on completing their admissions and financial aid requirements while facilitating the collection and analysis of data.

In addition to partnering in the development of the application, Enrollment Rx and Model Metrics now partner to implement complete solutions for educational institutions. The two companies work together to implement accelerated enrollment management solutions for colleges and universities leveraging Enrollment Rx's solution and industry expertise and Model Metrics' years of cloud computing experience with more than 1,000 implementations.

"With our partner Enrollment Rx, we are working to change the way educational institutions manage their student relationships and enrollment process," said Adam Caplan, CEO, Model Metrics. "Since its launch earlier this year, we are already seeing the benefits of this mutually beneficial relationship with a fellow salesforce.com partner."
