Testimonials

Since 1997, Kivuto has worked with academic institutions, software vendors, and publishers to innovate and streamline the management and delivery of digital resources.

Without Kivuto’s solution, we would have an unfulfilled need. We wouldn’t have had a way to deliver home-use software to faculty and students – or it would have been a horribly inconvenient manual process.

Aric K., Director of Desktop & Classroom Technology, Eastern Michigan University

Leadership requested a complicated billing process, and Kivuto was able to support it. We were quite impressed that the rules were loaded correctly, and no issues came up.

Garyn D., IT Project Manager, Austin Community College

Kivuto has helped streamline our software license distribution and has saved us a great amount of personal hours compared to the manual process we were considering as an alternative. Thank you!
