Student information systems are used by educational institutions to collect, organize, and analyze data related to students’ academic performance and personal information, in order to manage day-to-day administrative and learning activities.
The global student information system market is expected to nearly double to reach a value of $4.02 billion by 2019, growing at a CAGR of 12.92% from 2014 to 2019.
The market is loosely segmented into higher and primary (K-12) education, with the higher education segment accounting for a majority market share.

While this trend will continue through the forecast period, Technavio analysts expect to see increased focus on the K-12 segment during that time.
The steady growth of primary education in emerging regions and increased adoption of e-learning methods in primary classrooms have inspired providers to increase their presence in the K-12 segment by developing specific solutions for this age group.
Technavio analysts have identified 11 key vendors expected to make waves in the student information systems market through the forecast period:
