Rajesh Kumar
Principal, CBSE School – Coimbatore
"The report card module alone saved us. We have 1,200 students — generating CBSE report cards manually used to take a week. With SchoolDeck it's done in one afternoon."
Sunita Nair
Vice Principal – Hyderabad
"We were worried teachers wouldn't adopt it. The Databus team trained everyone on-site in half a day. Attendance is now marked on mobile, and parents get an SMS the same minute."

Why Indian schools are moving away from spreadsheets and desktop ERPs
Most school management software in India was built in the 2000s — installed on a single office computer, backed up on a pen drive, and completely inaccessible once the IT person left. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. The majority of schools we talk to are running fee records in Excel, communication via a personal WhatsApp group, and report cards in a Word template someone built years ago.
SchoolDeck is cloud-based school management software built specifically for the Indian education system — meaning it handles CBSE and ICSE report card formats natively, sends fee reminders via WhatsApp (the app parents actually use), and works on any device including a ₹8,000 Android phone.
What SchoolDeck handles end-to-end
SchoolDeck vs traditional school ERP software in India
Older desktop ERPs like Fedena, Entab, or custom-built systems require an on-premise server, an IT person to maintain them, and typically charge large upfront licence fees. When something breaks during exam season, you're waiting for a support engineer to fly in.
SchoolDeck is cloud-hosted, which means updates happen automatically (usually overnight), your data is backed up every hour, and support responds via chat — not a ticket queue. For schools in smaller cities and towns, this matters enormously because there's no local IT person to call.
