How to choose a InPlace alternative
- 1
What your bill is tied to
InPlace is sold as an enterprise system across every faculty, not by placement or student, and QuantumIT quotes each institution privately. Ask what drives the bill in any alternative, such as users, faculties or placements. Enterprise DNA's option has one setup fee, then a monthly retainer, with no licence per user or faculty.

Who owns your records
Check who owns the database and how you can get your records back. InPlace history sits in the vendor's system and is exported report by report. With the owned version, your records sit in a database your business owns, on infrastructure you choose.

Fit with your rules and fields
Your placement rules may include checks and expiry dates, agreements, available places, supervisors, hours and assessments. InPlace setup uses your forms and workflows, while changes go through a vendor change request. Enterprise DNA builds your version around how your business runs.

What switching involves
Plan for exports and for details that may be held differently in your current system. Student, host, site, supervisor and placement records, with hours and results, can come across from reports. Compliance items and agreement dates need careful handling, which Enterprise DNA includes in the migration.
The option that fits
A version built around your business
If your placement office has its own fields, checks and host agreements, a version built around those rules may fit better than another standard system. Enterprise DNA builds your version, brings your InPlace records across and runs it for you. Your records sit in a database your business owns, and your team works with it in plain language. The arrangement is one setup fee, then a monthly retainer, with no licence per user or faculty. A free version is available if you want to run it yourself.

Questions
InPlace alternatives, answered
Does InPlace publish its price? expand_more
No. QuantumIT does not publish a price for InPlace and quotes each institution privately. It is sold as an enterprise system across every faculty, rather than by placement or student, so ask for your quote before comparing costs.
What happens to our placement records if we switch? expand_more
Student, host, site, supervisor and placement records can come across from reports, along with completed hours and results. Compliance items and agreement dates may be held differently in each college, so Enterprise DNA handles bringing those across as part of the migration.
Can an alternative follow our placement process? expand_more
Yes. Enterprise DNA builds each business its own version around its rules and fields, including the placement details it needs to track. The free version covers the placement office, while a portal for students and supervisors is part of the version Enterprise DNA builds.
Is there a free alternative I can run myself? expand_more
The free version covers the placement office, including students and their checks, hosts, agreements, supervisors, allocation, hours, assessments and incidents. Students and supervisors do not log in to it. Enterprise DNA can build a version for your business and run it for you.
