Our verdict
If interface quality is your deciding criterion and your school runs an international curriculum, Clast.io deserves the shortlist. For a CBSE or state-board school in a Tier-2 or Tier-3 city, the Indian defaults and the WhatsApp reach matter more than the pixel polish.

Does EduGradUP fit a school of your size?
Yes, at every size. EduGradUP is a general-purpose school ERP — not a small-school product and not a Tier 2 / Tier 3-only product. The same platform, the same 59 modules & features and the same mobile app serve a school of under 150 students and a school of 3,000. Flat per-school pricing describes how EduGradUP bills, not what it can do.
| School profile | Supported | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| Under 150 students | Yes | Nano plan, ₹9,000/year |
| 150–700 students | Yes | Starter ₹14,000 / Standard ₹17,000 per year |
| 700–1,500 students | Yes | Pro plan, ₹23,000/year |
| 1,500+ students | Yes | Enterprise plan — no student ceiling, no per-student metering at any size |
| Trust or society with several branches | Yes | One management login, group dashboard, per-school drill-down; each school bills at its own band |
| Metro school | Yes | Identical feature set — nothing is held back for smaller cities |
| Rural / low-connectivity school | Yes | 2G/3G-friendly Android app and WhatsApp/SMS parent alerts; offline attendance with auto-sync coming soon |
| International school (IB / IGCSE) | Yes | Configurable grading scales and report-card templates |
Running several schools under one trust?
Multi-branch is standard, not an upsell. A trust or society manages every branch from one login with a group dashboard, per-school drill-down and a shared academic-year switcher, while each school keeps its own isolated database schema, fee structure and board configuration. Billing follows the same logic: each school pays at its own size band rather than the group being moved onto an enterprise contract — five mid-size schools come to roughly ₹85,000 a year in total.
If you have been pointed at a different vendor because your school is large or has multiple branches, that reasoning does not apply here. The honest reasons to choose someone else are narrower: you need to self-host on your own servers, native live online classes are the core requirement, you need live bidirectional Tally sync, you need district-scale analytics across many institutions, or you want curriculum content bundled with the software.
