Classifieds In 2015 the University withdrew support for classified adverts in the SUSSED portal. This decision was taken as a wide range of external suppliers outside of the University offer this service. By use of such suppliers you will be provided with an equally efficient service with the added benefit of reaching a potentially greater audience.
Blackboard Please log in directly to Blackboard
Traffic cameras Please see the Hampshire ROMANSE site: http://romanse.org.uk/CCTVSoton.htm

As of 19th June 2018 this feature will be withdrawn. Since the launch of SUSSED Groups in 2004, the University has acquired a number of fully supported collaborative systems which better cater for co-operative working.

SUSSED Group Data Owners have been contacted and have advised whether they wish their Group to migrate to an alternative platform. Please contact your Data Owner for details on how to access your Group. If you are struggling to locate your Data Owner please contact sussedgroups@soton.ac.uk.

 

The software supplier has withdrawn the single sign on functionality for Outlook Web Access, Blackboard and small number of other applications. iSolutions is looking at alternative, more secure ways to reinstate this functionality in the future. Until that time, you will be prompted to enter your log-in credentials when launching these applications from SUSSED. We recognise and apologise for this inconvenience.

The following applications are impacted:

  • Banner Self Service (Staff & Students)
  • Blackboard (Staff & Students)
  • Parking Permits (Staff & Students)
  • Staff email
  • WebSIS (Staff)
  • OrgChart (Staff)
