Tyler Technologies Acquires Edulink

Key Terms

school erp technical

School ERP is a software system that brings a school's administrative, academic, and financial tasks into one digital control center—think of it as a single app that handles attendance, grades, billing, schedules, staff records and communication. For investors, it matters because schools often pay recurring fees for these systems, adoption can scale across many institutions, and improved efficiency or data centralization can drive steady, predictable revenue and competitive advantage for providers.

workflow automation technical

Workflow automation is the use of technology to perform repetitive tasks automatically, reducing the need for manual effort. It is similar to setting a machine to handle routine chores so that people can focus on more important activities. For investors, it means faster, more efficient processes that can improve decision-making and reduce errors across various business functions.

electronic teacher evaluation portal technical

An electronic teacher evaluation portal is a secure online system schools and districts use to collect, store and analyze feedback on teacher performance from supervisors, peers, students or parents. Think of it as a digital suggestion box plus a report card generator: it streamlines paperwork, standardizes ratings and creates data schools can act on. For investors, such portals signal recurring software sales, customer retention, data-driven service opportunities and potential regulatory or privacy risks tied to handling personnel records.

Acquisition enhances Tyler’s offerings for the K-12 market, bringing scalable and data-driven processes to the forefront

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today it has acquired Edu.Link Incorporated (Edulink), a longtime provider of educator evaluation, compliance tracking, and workflow automation solutions.

The acquisition of Edulink strengthens Tyler’s School ERP human resources (HR) capabilities, bringing deeper functionality to evaluations, clearances, professional development, and district-wide workflow automation. The combined solutions will support districts with more unified visibility across HR, compliance, and operational processes. With more than 50 years of combined experience in serving educational institutions, Tyler’s and Edulink’s solutions bring even more innovation and efficiency to the market.

“Since our company’s founding, we’ve been committed to helping educators succeed by bringing efficiency and compliance to their administrative workflows,” said Edulink Co-Founder David Myers. “Now, as a part of Tyler, we can expand that commitment to educational institutions across the country. We look forward to delivering best-in-class solutions to the K-12 market, combining our deep domain expertise in talent management with Tyler’s breadth of offerings.”

Edulink’s flagship products include comprehensive teacher evaluation and compliance requirement tools, PAETEP and Comply. PAETEP is an electronic teacher evaluation portal that streamlines observations, goal setting, and performance reviews. Comply helps schools manage requirements such as professional development, managing clearances, and complying with state mandates. Comply also manages administrative workflows like field trip requests, reimbursements, and volunteer tracking. Both tools help to reduce administrative burdens, strengthen clarity around state requirements, and support school leaders in the work that matters most — serving students and staff.

“Supporting schools and educational institutions is foundational to Tyler’s mission of creating stronger communities, and our acquisition of Edulink is a natural fit as we continue to empower educational administrators with solutions to streamline their business and regulatory needs,” said Sean Marlow, president of Tyler’s Municipal & Schools Division. “Together, we’ll be able to deliver even more value, stability, and innovation for the K-12 administrators we serve.”

Founded in 1998, Edulink is based in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania. The management and staff will become part of Tyler’s Municipal & Schools Division.
