LinkedIn profileMany schools choose their first ERP under pressure — during the pandemic, during a board mandate, or when a new principal arrives. Three years on, the system that solved yesterday's problem is often the bottleneck for today's.
Ten signals to watch for: (1) staff maintain parallel Excel sheets despite the ERP; (2) parents still call the office for fee balances; (3) report cards require manual reformatting before printing; (4) the mobile app crashes during admission season; (5) bKash, eSewa or PayNow are not natively supported; (6) Bengali or Nepali UI is missing or poorly translated; (7) data export requires a support ticket; (8) the vendor's support team is in a different timezone; (9) every new module is a paid upgrade; (10) the contract has no documented exit clause.
If three or more apply to you, it's time to evaluate alternatives. EduGradUP offers a free deployment plan and free data migration from any existing ERP, with a named onboarding manager throughout.
