School management software (School ERP)
WebSoftOS School OS is a cloud school ERP for Indian schools and multi-campus groups. It handles admissions, fee structures and online fee collection, concessions and scholarships, exams and report cards, homework, PTMs, transport routes, library and staff payroll, with fees posting straight into accounts.
Who it is for
- CBSE, ICSE and state-board schools
- Multi-campus school groups and trusts
- Schools collecting fees online and tracking defaulters
- Schools running their own bus fleet
Problems it solves
- Fee defaulters are found by going through registers; reminders are manual.
- Report cards are assembled in Excel and Word every term.
- Bus routes and student transport assignments are not linked to fees.
- Staff salary and the school accounts are kept in a different system from student fees.

Pricing
School ERP runs on the same WebSoftOS platform plans: a free trial, Standard at ₹999/month and Enterprise at ₹1,999/month. Each plan is a fully hosted ERP site with daily backups, HTTPS and your own domain. See pricing for current inclusions.
Implementation
Schools typically go live in 1–3 weeks, ideally before a term starts: classes, students and fee structures are imported, opening fee balances are loaded, and the office, accounts and teachers are trained separately.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best school management software in India?
Look for fee collection with online payments and defaulter tracking, report cards, transport and staff payroll — with fees flowing into accounts. WebSoftOS School OS covers these in one cloud ERP and suits multi-campus groups; single small schools sometimes start with a fees-only app.
Can parents pay fees online?
Yes. Payment orders are created against the fee ledger and confirmed by the payment gateway webhook, so receipts and the ledger update automatically.
Does it generate report cards?
Yes. Exam results feed report-card templates per class and board.
Can it run several campuses?
Yes. Region and board setup supports school groups, with consolidated accounts.
