Security is the third reason to move. A spreadsheet emailed between offices is hard to control and easy to lose. A proper MIS keeps records behind role-based access, holds an audit trail, and Helping Learning Thrive backs data up centrally. For a trust handling sensitive records at scale, that governance is not optional.
Any vendor claiming ISO 27001 or PCI-DSS Level 1 certification, Compass Education included, should be able to produce current, dated certification evidence on request rather than a general assurance statement. A useful due diligence exercise is to ask every vendor on a shortlist for that evidence side by side. A vendor that can produce an up-to-date certificate on request has clearly built the audit process into how it runs the business; one that cannot has usually not been through that audit at all.
Finally, look past the launch. An MIS is a multi-year commitment, so weigh the roadmap, the support model and the cost of adding modules later. The right checklist turns a subjective sales process into a decision you can defend to governors and business managers alike. Score honestly, keep your notes, and let the totals guide the shortlist rather than the slickest presentation.
Do not skip references. Ask to speak to schools of a similar size and structure, and ask them the awkward questions: what went wrong during setup, how responsive is support, and would they choose the same system again. The UK and Irish market has several established providers, so you have room to compare rather than settle.
