ScholarJMS: Advanced Journal Management system & OJS Alternative
The World’s Most Advanced Editorial Management System and Fully Automated Journal Publishing Platform
A Modern Solution for Modern Publishing
In the rapidly evolving world of scholarly publishing, universities, research institutes, publishers, and editorial boards need a journal management system that is modern, secure, fast, and fully automated. Traditional systems often struggle with outdated workflows, security risks, complicated submission portals, and the need for heavy manual effort.
ScholarJMS stands out as a next-generation solution, the world's most advanced editorial management system, built to power modern journals with unmatched automation, intelligent workflows, and an ultra-clean publishing experience.
Built From Real-World Experience
Developed by Sequence Research & Development Pvt Ltd, ScholarJMS is the result of many years of real-world experience managing and hosting journals built on OJS (Open Journal Systems) for more than 100+ global clients through OJSCloud.com. This deep, hands-on experience exposed every challenge publishers face, from security threats to plugin issues, submission spam, indexing problems, and complex editorial workflows.
ScholarJMS was created to solve those problems once and for all.
Why ScholarJMS Is the Most Advanced Editorial Management System in the World
ScholarJMS isn't just another journal management software. It is a complete publishing ecosystem, built after observing thousands of author submissions, reviewer assignments, editorial decisions, and DOI registrations across OJS journals managed by OJSCloud.com.
Built From Real-World Learning
After managing journals in domains such as engineering, medicine, life sciences, humanities, computer science, pharmacy, and management, we identified the core weaknesses of traditional platforms.
Problems Of Open Journal Systems(OJS)
Slow and outdated UI
Frequent system errors
Plugin conflicts
Exposed directory structures
Manual DOI deposition
Email-heavy workflows
Authors struggling with login
Submission complexity
ScholarJMS eliminates these pain points completely with a closed-source, secured architecture and a fully automated editorial workflow.
