The success story

“We only have 100 students. Can we manage contracts manually?”

Most small schools think they can, until they do the math:

This case study shows how smart small schools turned their biggest objection to automation (“we’re too small to need it”) into their greatest advantage (“we’re too small to waste time on paperwork”).

EduTrust 4 FAQ

What PEIs ask before they switch.

Is there a limit to the number of contracts our PEI can send out for e-signing using Zegal?

Your PEI can use Zegal on an unlimited basis. There are no limits on the number of contracts you can send for e-signing or the number of signers. Unlike other e-signing platforms, we don’t meter the number or charge for ‘envelopes’ and that means that you can be sure there will be no additional fees ever on top of your subscription.

How many users can we add to our account?

Your Zegal subscription gives you an unlimited number of users for a single annual flat fee. We won’t charge you additional fees ever. Equally there are no limits to the number of e-signers who can be invited to sign contracts.

What Zegal plan does our PEI need for this service?

Compliant e-signing workflows and other education use cases all require a Zegal Enterprise subscription plan. Talk to us now to learn about using Zegal in your PEI.

Our student contract is tailored for our PEI, and there are very specific data we need to collect. How does Zegal handle this?

The Zegal legal ops team onboards each PEI personally. As part of that process we ensure that we use your PEI-specific contract template and that we are capturing all of the data and variables you need when you are sending contracts to prospective students.

What systems can Zegal integrate with?

Zegal can receive data directly into contracts for e-signing from any other software that has an API. In practice, this means that almost all modern software can be integrated with Zegal. But a few common examples are LMSs like iSAMS, CRMs such as Dynamics, cloud storage (Google and Microsoft), and spreadsheets.

What technical support does Zegal give to our PEI?

The Zegal Customer Support team offers support throughout the day. Our Level 1 support team can help you or your students using live chat directly from the app. For more complex problems, our Level 2 support will work with you to resolve problems over email, and for workflow, automation and document issues, our Level 3 support is by phone and e-meetings. This unparalleled level of support has been the backbone of the Zegal service for ten years in Asia.

We love the Zegal system but we would like to use it for other use cases. Can this be done?

Yes. Several universities and schools use Zegal for other specialised use cases, but the two we see most commonly are for the employment and management of overseas agents. If you want to talk to us about these use cases or anything else, please contact us today.

In practice

Award-winning, and proven in Singapore schools.
