Hi Lucia,

Do you think they are looking for a CRM system? Does it need to be
accessible to students, or staff, or both? Do you know what type of
student interactions they are looking to capture and what they want to
do with them?

If you can get them to be more specific about what they're looking
for, then hopefully someone on here or another accessibility forum
will be able to suggest an accessible application.

Cheers, Lynn
