TESTIMONIALS
Don’t just take our word for it
"The results have been pretty incredible. Usually our teams are skeptical of tech, but for Havana, different teams were fighting to be the first to get it."
Bryan Palmer, Chief Commercial Officer EMENA, Global University Systems
"Within 2 months, we got conversions. The AI got students who had abandoned their applications to start talking again. It ended up converting leads we had given up on."
Pia Horner, Assoc Director & Head of Student Recruitment, University of Europe for Applied Sciences
"We sometimes receive 1000s of leads from student fairs. It's hard for us to follow-up with all of them quickly, but Havana's AI increases our speed-to-lead dramatically, boosting conversion rates."
Director of Student Recruitment, Top-50 Business School
Frequently asked questions
How does Havana compare to Halda for admissions teams?
Havana offers several key advantages over Halda. While both use AI to engage prospective students, Havana has deeper functionality and integrations, as we are only focused on building an AI agent for enrollment teams. The trade-off is we forgo other bells and whistles like helping customers build forms, and landing pages. We believe the best teams will want specialized, cutting edge products, especially for something as important as enrollment growth.
