Our Story

OpenEduCat was founded with a simple belief: educational institutions deserve better software. After years of working with schools and universities struggling with expensive, inflexible systems, we decided to build something different.

Our open-source approach means that institutions can start for free, customize to their needs, and grow without vendor lock-in. Today, OpenEduCat powers over 1,000 institutions worldwide, from small preschools to large universities.

We are proud to be trusted by educational leaders across 90+ countries, helping them manage 3 million+ students and transform their operations.
