Frequently asked questions

What schools coming from LiveKid ask us most.

Does Edena have a digital daily diary for nurseries?
Yes. Each child's meals, naps, photos and activities are logged in seconds, and every family sees them instantly in the free app.
What is the difference between Edena and LiveKid?
LiveKid specialises in nurseries. Edena covers that stage and also schools, academies and groups of centres on the same platform, with VERI*FACTU invoicing, SEPA direct debits and an admissions CRM.
How much does Edena cost for a nursery?
From €36 a month, paying per student, with no setup fee and no lock-in. You can try it free for 30 days, no card needed. LiveKid publishes a monthly fee per centre and a trial account.
LiveKid already invoices and has AI. What is the difference?
LiveKid invoices, takes payments in the app and has an assistant that drafts messages and activities. Edena does that for the 0–3 stage and also publishes its VERI*FACTU declaration, and keeps working if the centre grows into a school, an academy or a group.
Does Edena track staff hours, like LiveKid?
Yes. The team clocks in from their phones and the centre keeps the working-time record. According to its website, LiveKid also records staff working hours.
If I open a school tomorrow, do I have to change software?
With Edena, no. The same platform covers the nursery, the school, the academy and a group of centres. According to its website, LiveKid is aimed at nurseries.

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.

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.
