How we built this comparison

Built from each vendor's public information (official website, product listings and trade press), reviewed on 20 October 2026. “Not shown in its public information” means we did not find it in those sources, not that the platform lacks it. The comparison does not measure how deep each feature goes, nor does it cover everything that may matter to your school, such as the link with your region's education platform, timetable generation or classroom content: ask each vendor for a demo with your own cases.

Spotted something wrong or out of date? Write to us at hola@edena.es: we will review it and, where needed, correct it.

The office closes the month without chasing families

Invoices go out with Verifactu, attendance is recorded and each family sees it in the app. Seeing it with a school like yours takes 15 minutes.
