The Entab Alternative Indian Schools Switch To
Entab CampusCare has served Indian schools for years, but the experience is still desktop-flavoured and per-module billed. Schoolites keeps the compliance depth and adds cloud, native apps, WhatsApp Business, Schoolites Genie AI Assistant and an OCR admission form scanner — on one flat per-student plan.

The Three Reasons We Hear Every Week
From principals and administrators who moved from Entab in the last year.
Tired of on-premise
Backups, upgrades, IT bills. We didn't want to keep a server room running for our school software.
Parents wanted a real app
The Entab app felt like a wrapped website. Push notifications failed half the time. Schoolites' native app just works.
Per-module bills were creeping up
Every year a new module appeared on the invoice. Schoolites is one number that does not change.

Go Live in 7–14 Days
We run Schoolites parallel to Entab for a week, then switch over a weekend. Zero academic disruption.
Schools That Switched from Entab
"We were with Entab for 9 years. Switching was scary, but the Schoolites team did the data import themselves. The mobile experience is on another level."
"Entab was reliable but heavy. Schoolites gives us the same reports on a phone. Our principal actually checks the dashboard now."
"The WhatsApp Business integration and Schoolites Genie are the two things Entab simply does not have. Worth the switch alone."
