What their customers say

Quotes from people at QS's customers.

“Working with QS offered a way to access innovative capabilities without having to create them from the ground up.”

University of London

““The track record that QS had in doing this work… we knew that what we would be getting would be insight and experience from decades of working with international students doing exactly what we wanted to be able to achieve.””

University of London

““The technological opportunity, so machine learning, propensity to convert, these were all sophisticated techniques that we wanted to have but we absolutely did not have in house and would take us years to build.””

University of London

““We really recognised that our students needed more than we could give them. We really wanted them to engage in a conversation with someone about their online learning.””

University of London

““I chose QS Reputation Manager because we needed to find a way to make our contact management simpler and more efficient.””

““The level of targeting and personalisation we now have in our communications has been made possible through our use of QS Reputation Manager.””

Xènia Guàrdia · Rankings Director · Esade Business School

“We've identified our key priority countries. There are nine of them and, maybe as importantly, because we engaged a lot of colleagues across the university, the buy-in for that level of focus was really strong and really positive.”

“We were allowed to work with you to… engage with the data and see what it implied and what it suggested.”

Artherton

“One of the engagements that we've had over the last twelve months or so with QS has been around understanding better where our students come from, where students who apply to the UK come from, and really leveraging that data and that analysis to build a clearer strategy about which countries and which locations we should be thinking about and prioritising and focusing on. So it was a really interesting but also an important project for us.”

Andrew Atherton · University of Southampton

“one of the engagements that we've had over the last 12 months or so with QS has been around understanding better where our students come from, [and] where students who applied to the UK come from.”

professor Andrew Atherton · Vice President, International and Engagement · University of Southampton

“The real value of the Self-Assessment is not achieving a high score but understanding clearly where the institution’s strengths and improvement areas truly are.”

Raffaele Oriani · Dean · Luiss Business School

“The framework transformed the initiative into a strategic roadmap and accelerated organisational alignment,”

Raffaele Oriani · Dean · Luiss Business School

““I would highly recommend QS Reputation Manager to others. Their comprehensive tools and proactive approach have been instrumental in effectively managing our online reputation.””

Dr Nidal Dwaikat · Vice President for Planning, Development, and Quality Assurance

““We see great value in their platform and services, and we intend to continue leveraging them to further enhance our reputation management efforts.””

““QS Reputation Manager provided valuable insights into our online reputation, allowing us to identify areas of strength and weakness and track the effectiveness of our reputation management efforts over time.””

Dr Dwaikat

““The training provided was thorough, support was responsive, staff adoption was high due to its ease of use, and the platform seamlessly integrated into our workflow.””

Dr Nidal Dwaikat · Vice President for Planning, Development, and Quality Assurance

““The dynamic nature of recruiting students and responding to their needs is just so much faster than I think anybody would understand if they didn't work in our sector.””

Marie Ennis · Director of Strategic Communications, Marketing and Recruitment · University of London

“We engaged a lot of stakeholders across the university and looked in quite a lot of detail at the analysis and the assessment work and the recommendations.”

University of Southampton

“To foster responsible AI experimentation and adoption, we focused first on putting a solid governance framework in place”

Fabio Siddu · Chief Transformation Officer · Galileo Global Education Italia

“The framework helped us to focus on the state of our AI initiatives, giving us a structured way to navigate a complex topic and focus on what really mattered. Through the self-assessment process, we mapped our existing AI powered tools identifying processes that could benefit from AI, collected documentation to formalise and promote the adoption of these tools.”

Fabio Siddu · Chief Transformation Officer · Galileo Global Education Italia
