Clay County School District, located in Northeast Florida, serves a mix of suburban and rural communities across 644 square miles. The district supports 38,241 students and 2,900 teachers in 426 schools. As an early adopter of ClassLink in 2016, Clay has focused on improving digital access and making technology easier to manage.
Managing user accounts across different systems was complicated and time-consuming for Clay’s IT team. The district used Microsoft Active Directory, Azure, O365, and Google, but keeping everything updated and working together was a challenge. With more digital tools being added, IT staff had to pull data from multiple sources, like student records and HR systems, making the process even harder. The team needed a simple way to handle accounts and ensure students and teachers could easily access the resources they needed.
In 2018, Clay started using ClassLink OneSync to automate account management and reduce manual work. With OneSync, the district saved hours of IT time by automatically updating accounts across all systems. ClassLink OneClick gave students and staff easy, one-click access to all their digital tools, while Roster Server made it simple to set up class rosters.
Within eight weeks, the district saw a huge improvement. IT staff spent less time fixing account issues and had more time to focus on bigger projects. With OneSync, Clay no longer struggled with managing multiple systems, making digital access easier and more reliable for everyone.
OneSync is a robust and effective directory management product that is pleasing to the eye and easy to use, backed by a knowledgeable staff of folks who embody a culture of customer service. OneSync standardizes for us what was previously handled by duplicated manual processes and scripting, which will save us hours of manual work and headaches.
