What does school management software cost for a Mumbai school?
Plans are priced by student strength. Foundation is ₹29,999 a year for up to 500 students, Growth is ₹49,999 a year for up to 1,000, and Scale is ₹1,09,999 a year for up to 2,500. Monthly billing is available on each. Larger campuses are quoted individually. Every plan includes two months free, and setup, data migration and staff training are part of onboarding rather than a separate charge.
Can parents pay school fees online through the app?
Not today. Fees are recorded by your office when a parent pays — by cash, cheque, UPI, card, bank transfer or wallet — and each entry carries its reference number. What the platform automates is the rest of the cycle: fee structures per division and campus, invoices generated nightly, late fines applied by policy, and receipts and overdue reminders sent to parents on WhatsApp. A parent-facing online payment option is not part of the product yet, and we would rather say so than let you find out during a demo.
Does it handle SSC Maharashtra, CBSE and ICSE in one school?
Yes. Grading scales are configured per school and mapped to a division, so divisions following different boards run side by side. You choose percentage bands, a 10-point CGPA or grades only, set a global passing percentage and override it per subject. Theory, practical and internal marks are held separately, and section and class rank are calculated with the result. The scales are yours to define — we do not ship a board template that has to match your school's practice.
Is this a school ERP or a school management system?
The same thing, under two names. Campus 24x7 is a cloud school management system covering admissions, the student information system, attendance, timetable, examinations, fees, transport, library, payroll and parent communication in one place. Schools that call it an ERP and schools that call it school management software are asking for the same set of modules, and this is that set.
Can we message parents in Marathi?
Yes. WhatsApp templates are stored per institution with their own language setting, so Marathi, Hindi and English versions of the same alert can run together and each family receives the one it reads. This covers the automated messages too — absence alerts, fee receipts, exam results and admission welcomes. Messages go from your school's own WhatsApp business number, so parents see the school's name rather than an unknown gateway.
How does school bus tracking work across Mumbai's routes?
Live location comes from the driver's phone running the Campus 24x7 driver app during the trip, so there is no GPS hardware to buy or fit to a bus. Routes and stops are defined per campus, children are marked boarded, alighted or absent at each stop, and transport fees are charged by route within the fee structure. Transport is part of the Growth plan and above, not Foundation.
Does it work for schools in Navi Mumbai, Thane and the wider MMR?
Yes. The platform is cloud-based, so a school in Vashi, Kharghar, Thane, Kalyan-Dombivli or Vasai-Virar is set up the same way as one in the city, and a group running campuses across MMR manages them from one place with role-based access per campus. Onboarding and training are handled remotely, so there is no dependency on a local installation or an on-site server.
How does the timetable handle multi-medium and multi-shift divisions?
You can build the grid by hand or let Campus 24x7 generate it from your subject assignments. Either way, every save is checked against the rest of the school: a slot that would double-book a teacher, put two divisions in one room or give a division two lessons at once is refused rather than saved. The dashboard counts conflict alerts and unassigned lectures and shows room utilisation, so clashes surface before the timetable is printed, not after.
What does the platform do about UDISE+ returns?
Attendance and student data can be exported in a UDISE+ compatible form, so the figures you need come out of one system rather than being compiled from several registers. To be precise about the limit: this is an export whose structure suits the return, not a direct submission integration — the filing itself is still done by your staff on the government portal.
How long does it take to move off our Excel setup?
Most schools are running inside two to three weeks. We import your existing student, staff and fee data from Excel, CSV or your previous system, set up your divisions, fee structures and grading scales, and train each department on the part it uses. Schools usually start with fees and attendance in the first week and bring on examinations, timetable and transport once the office is comfortable.
