About Packback:
Packback’s mission is to empower every student to be fearlessly curious and find their unique voice. This mission shapes every decision at Packback. As a pedagogy partner, Packback uses technology to shorten feedback loops, improve writing and critical thinking skills, and create student-centered, trust-based learning environments.
About the relationship:
Packback needed scalable integrations to meet the demands of new K12 customers. After finishing a conversation with a potential new customer, Packback realized they needed to find a solution to support different integration needs. Edlink’s Miguel Doñes sent a tailored email to Packback’s Susie O’Brian, sparking her interest. She involved Davo Hynds, and together they scheduled a meeting with Edlink’s Nick La Riza and Amanda Goodson.
During their discussions, Susie and Davo explained Packback’s requirements. They needed a way to scale integrations without consuming too much development time and money. Packback’s development team was already managing integrations through LTI and addressing issues with LMS updates and changes – a lot to keep track of for a team (no matter what the size). Edlink’s Unified API offered the solution Packback needed.
By building 1 integration to Edlink’s Unified API, Packback gains connections to the most popular SIS and IAM providers, including Clever and ClassLink. With Edlink’s integration support, Packback can manage all of their integrations through the Edlink Dashboard and use powerful data management tools like Transformations and Enrichments to clean data into a simple format. Now with Edlink as their integration partner, Packback can save thousands of dollars and hundreds of development hours and focus on their core business.
