What Housing.Cloud is
Housing.Cloud is a cloud-based student housing platform for colleges and universities. It supports housing applications, room assignments and selection, billing, communications, reporting, check-in, and resident self-service. Students can access its portal on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone without installing an app. Roommate matching uses student habits, requirements, and preferences, while room selection offers visual floor plans and real-time availability. Resident requests become trackable tasks assigned to staff and linked to student profiles; residents can check their request status in the portal. The platform connects with student information systems including Ellucian Banner, Ellucian Colleague, PeopleSoft, and Workday, along with access control, facilities, and payment systems. SIS data can sync through SFTP files, direct database connections, or APIs, and authentication supports SAML and OAuth. Housing.Cloud says it is SOC 2 compliant, encrypts data in transit and at rest, and stores student data in US data centers. Pricing is available on request.
