"Our university has been using Mobility Online since 2013 and the software is a great asset in our mission to offer high-quality mobility experiences to incoming and outgoing students.
In the last two years, we have implemented more and more processes. The SOP team has been super helpful and supportive during the implementation processes and was always at hand with practical advice and creative approaches.
The digital processes in MO enable us to work more efficiently and comprehensive workflows lead to more transparency, both within the International Office and for students. The cloud solution allows us to work at three different campuses or from home efficiently and at the highest quality standards.
We also chose Mobility Online as our provider for the “Erasmus without paper”-network and are happy with the assistance in implementing the required features such as Digital Learning Agreements or Digital Inter-Institutional Agreements.
We look forward to extending the use of Mobility Online in even more fields of internationalisation and thank the SOP team for their continued support!"
Deggendorf Institute of Technology
"We use Mobility-Online since the beginning of 2020. It has been a long way since then, always with a lot of support from the SOP team. Before the adoption of the Mobility-Online software, we had to use several other applications with a lot of manual workloads and a lack of integration between them. MO is helping us to gather all the workflows associated with mobility, improving our real-time knowledge about budgets, mobilities, communication with the applicants, places, agreements. EWP integration, and a lot more."
Lusófona University
“At University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria we started implementing MO during the academic year 2019/20, due to the requirements of the new Erasmus+ programme. The implementation has been ongoing since then and while there have been several hurdles and we still have some challenges ahead, we are confident that with this software and the help of our SOP project manager we are on the best way to more transparent, professional and sustainable processes in mobility administration.”
University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria
"Our university has been using the Mobility-Online platform since 2021. Offering flexible, fully web-based software solutions for the management of mobility and cooperation, this platform enables us to benefit from efficient workflows concerning international student and staff mobility, international partnerships, connection to European Commission tools (Mobility Tool, EWP). Mobility-Online software is a tremendous tool that will certainly help us provide quick and transparent information, equal treatment for applicants, friendly access for students, independent data administration and control over mobility processes. The SOP team is very helpful and responsive to our needs in the system implementation process, giving us the solution for the reduction of processing time and effort and less paperwork."

"At UCPH we have been using Mobility-Online since late 2020 and we have been very happy with the solution so far. As we continue to learn more about Mobility-Online, we constantly discover new functions to implement and use, and our overall experience is that the system is very flexible and capable of supporting most processes rather than being restrictive.
From an administrative point of view Mobility-Online has helped us create efficient automated workflows and a better way of managing our international partnerships digitally. Our students now experience a simpler application process with a clear overview of the entire process and what they should do under each step.
The collaboration and teamwork with the project management at SOP has been outstanding and we really feel that an effort has been made to understand our needs and to develop solutions that support these needs. All our questions and inquiries are always answered thoroughly and we feel that we are in safe hands."
University of Copenhagen
"Mobility-Online has been helpful for our whole team in collating many different steps and providing a cohesive end-user experience for our Learning Abroad student applications. The system has also helped us align internal processes for more efficient application management."
University of Toronto
"Although mobility programs are similar across the world, the administration and management varies a lot from institution to institution. Mobility Online is a great tool to map out processes, mainstream common steps, and individualize personal preferences of program coordinators/ administrators. As international relations officer without previous IT knowledge it takes time, willingness to acquire knowledge of the functionality of databases, and your employer's commitment to support this process, but once you are more familiar with it, Mobility Online really makes a difference by providing quick and structured information of each applicant's application status, document overview and next steps. It is an enormous advantage to have a team member that is "literate" in Mobility Online, who can create or adapt processes and quickly react to resolve easy bugs, but sometimes meeting up virtually with your SOP Project Manager to figure out challenging issues or discover new ways to solve a step is necessary and very helpful. Moreover, it is fun to work with Mobility Online!"
Medical University of Graz
"We are brand new with Mobility-Online (February 2020), but we have been already appreciating the incredible capabilities of this software. It really helps us as IO to be better organised and efficient by storing all the documents and student data.
We have been able to integrate it with third-party university systems from authentication to the import of student data.
Easy to use for students, to keep their situation updated and easy for our staff to monitor the status of each student. It allows a very exhaustive reporting system and the email generation is extremely powerful and configurable.
Last but not least, it’s perfectly integrated with MTool data transferring and is ready for EWP."
University of Ferrara
"We have started using Mobility Online in the academic year 2019/20 and are consistently developing it. We are most happy about the flexibility in mapping our procedures with the help of our great project manager who is always there for us finding a tailor-made solution for the needs of our institution. Our team appreciates working with Mobility Online, it made our daily work a lot easier. It takes away a good deal of the paperwork and relieves both staff and students. We can say that it is very user friendly because its user interface is very intuitive and easy to understand. Many thanks to the SOP team for providing this useful software."
Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts
"The University of Lucerne started implementing Mobility Online in 2018 and we are very happy with the system’s capabilities. Yes, it can be complex at times, but this very complexity is what allows the system to do so much and indeed allows each university to tailor the system to their own needs. We have been particularly impressed with the level of support that we have received from our excellent Mobility Online contact person, working with her is a real pleasure and with her help we are eager to continue developing the system to fit our needs. Last but not least, we are grateful for the way in which Mobility Online will allow us, as a Swiss institution to implement the ‘Erasmus without paper’ initiative."
University of Lucerne
"We've been using Mobility Online for both our student and staff exchange programmes since 2009. With approx. 1000 incoming and outgoing students and 100 incoming and outgoing staff members each year, we couldn't imagine getting our work done without Mobility Online. We've been especially pleased with several things: the possibility to make specific changes for just our university, the possibility to have most of the necessary information in one system and the continuous development of the system as our needs and requirements have changed (e.g. national reporting and the Erasmus programme). As both the main user and the technical support for my own colleagues I am able to concentrate on the relevant questions as I can count on the fact that the excellent customer support is always at hand to patiently help me with any questions I might have."
University of Helsinki
“Since I was new at the International Office, I started working with Mobility Online completely impartially and the Rosenheim University of Applied Sciences introduced it only a few months before, the portal grew with me as much as I grew with the portal.
Introduction requires a lot of work. But even after the introductory period is over, it makes perfect sense to have a contact person for Mobility Online in the team, who can gradually make improvements and adjustments.
Because Mobility Online offers an incredible number of possibilities which - once learned - make everyday work in the IO easier.”
University of Applied Sciences Rosenheim
"I have only been working with Mobility-Online for 1.5 years and have not yet used everything in the software. My previous experiences are mostly positive. Mobility-Online offers all the features needed to manage our mobilities. However, it takes time and, depending on how intensively you deal with it, some programming skills to work effectively and efficiently with it. If problems arose, these were (if possible) promptly resolved by the support staff and comprehensibly explained upon request."
Zittau/Goerlitz University of Applied Sciences
"We have been using Mobility Online for 7 years now. In spite of tough start, it enabled the International Relations Office of Ecole Centrale de Marseille to reach the goal of 100% mobility involving an increase of more 200% in the mobility flow. What we mostly appreciate in the system is its plasticity as this huge increase required evolutions in the processes. Today we are not only dealing with the outgoing and incoming students but also the Erasmus+ scholarships. This would indeed not have been possible without the help of the Mobility Online Support Team whom we would like to thank warmly."
Ecole Centrale Marseille
"Mobility-Online makes our daily work a lot easier, we are able to export and import lots of data from between our systems that helps us save time.
It makes the different stages of the exchange procedure more transparent.
The applicants have a more easier way to apply for an exchange and what is more important: they can modify and udpate their application documents during their stay abroad and are always kept up-to-date on their status during the whole length of their exchange."
Eszterházy Károly University
The University of Edinburgh has been using Mobility Online since 2011/12. The system is fully embedded in the institution’s Exchange processes.
The sequential staff pipelines and student workflows - and the many different functionalities available within them - are invaluable in providing an at-a-glance overview of student progress.
SOP’s support team are always friendly and courteous in providing assistance with a system whose size and complexity can be daunting. Navigating your way around Mobility Online will take time, but even after 6 years of supporting it, Mobility Online’s incredible flexibility means that I still find new features to use which help reduce the manual effort needed to administer our Exchange programs.
Despite the impact of the UK’s withdrawal from Erasmus, Mobility Online has proved capable of handling the complex demands of the new Turing funding scheme.
