SAGU: Open-Source Unified Management System for Educational Institutions

SAGU is a portuguese acronym for "Sistema Aberto de Gest‹o Unificada", which translates in English to "Unified Open Management System". SAGU was originally designed to automate all of the relationship that happens between a student and his/her Educational Institution. This relationship happens in the academic, financial and administrative levels, and SAGU has subsystems - modules - dedicated to all of these levels. Being a modular, open system, SAGU can be tailored to fit the needs of any Educational Institution. It uses PHP and PostgreSQL and it's server runs on a GNU/Linux operating system. The client is any graphical browser, such as Netscape, Konqueror or even Internet Explorer, running on any operating system. This way, the system administrator or IT manager is free to decide upon any available client platform. SAGU is licensed under the GNU/GPL.
