What our partners are saying

Penji allowed us to have students sign up more directly to groups but also allow us to restrict and curate [our] groups... where we don't have to go in and manually do it ourselves. I can't even begin to explain to you the time saver in that!
Reed Colver
Associate Director and Learning Consultant, Academic Resource Center
We brought Penji to UGA in 2020. The access to extensive data, the autonomy it gives to our students and tutors, and the automation of administrative tasks we used to do by hand is beyond compare to other software. Since moving to Penji we have seen substantial growth in student engagement and tutor offerings. I give Penji my highest recommendation.
Sarah Jeffery
Senior Coordinator of Peer Education (PLaTO)
Using Penji made it a lot more convenient for our students to register for appointments, to complete things they need to complete, to be reminded of requirements they need to meet, and it allowed us increased our student engagement in the program.
Jennifer Forster
Executive Director
Implementing Penji has been the best decision we have made for the growth of our residential tutoring program. We are currently trending to double student usage from last year! The app is very accessible to students and has helped simplify the request process. Working with the Penji team has been wonderful due to their creativity, flexibility, and willingness to create and innovate together.
