EdSmart

Here’s a new way to quickly digitize school administration: EdSmart is a cloud-based solution for school communities that customizes to meet each school’s unique requirements. This technology challenges schools to develop new practices versus supporting/reproducing previous ones, and to think laterally regarding their existing workflows. The result is improved productivity to ultimately free up time for schools to focus on teaching and students.

Founded in 2014 by parents Fiona Boyd and David Eedle, the couple were tired of filling out endless school paperwork for their three children. They decided to help solve the problem by crowd-sourcing input from the K-12 Market. They’ve made user feedback a key development tool for the platform.

EdSmart provides full integration with other online school systems to help make the transition to digital admin a seamless process for all users. Schools save operational costs, significantly reduce paper usage, and ensure compliance in handling sensitive information. The accessibility and organization of students’ data into a central location has been praised by schools using it.

Half a million end users and 400+ schools globally rely on EdSmart, which earned a Cool Tool Award finalist spot for “Best Administrative Solution” as part of The EdTech Awards 2022. Learn more.
