School management software streamlines administrative operations at educational institutions. These products are typically used by school administrators and support staff in a variety of departments, including food services, housing, information technology (IT), and facility management.
School management software helps educational organizations more efficiently manage institutional resources and improve communication between departments, administrators, and support staff. Many functions of school management software manage operations that help keep the institution running, such as work orders, preventative maintenance, and inventory management.
NOTE: This category is intended for products that manage administrative operations but do not qualify for G2’s more specific Education ERP software categories, including Education ERP suites, Education HR software, and Education Finance and Accounting Software. As a result, while products in those categories may offer some features in this space, they are excluded from School Management Software.
To qualify for inclusion in the School Management Software category, a product must:
- Provide tools to improve staff communication
- Have features designed to improve efficiency
- Include functionality designed to help manage school operations in areas such as facilities, IT management, program management, document management, attendance, and food service.
