Frequently asked

Questions we hear most often

Cannot find what you need? Support answers within 24 hours, and critical incidents are acknowledged inside an hour.

  • Most institutions are operational within a week. Importing student and staff records is the longest step; once data is in, configuring classes, subjects and fee heads typically takes a day or two with our onboarding team.

  • Yes. The teacher app queues attendance taken offline and syncs it automatically once the device reconnects, so a dead spot in a corridor does not cost you a period of data.

  • Yes. Multi-branch setup lets you keep separate classes, staff and fee structures per branch while reporting across all of them from one dashboard. See Administration for the configuration guide.
