Coaching centre software in India, compared
InstiOne, Classplus, Teachmint, Fedena and Classpro side by side, covering price, free plans, who each is built for and how to pick the right one.
There are many apps for running a coaching centre, and most of them look alike from the outside. Pricing hides behind “Book a demo”, and every website says “all in one”. This post puts five of them side by side, using only what each one says on its own website, so you can choose quickly.
We make InstiOne, so we’re not neutral. We’ve kept to facts you can check yourself, and we say where another tool fits better than ours.
The short answer
- You run classes and want enquiries, fees, attendance and results in one place: InstiOne is free, with unlimited students, and you can sign up and start without talking to anyone.
- You mainly sell courses and run live classes online: a course-selling app such as Classplus is built for that.
- You run a large school and have a budget: a school ERP such as Fedena covers more school-only needs.
- You want smart boards in your classrooms: Teachmint now leads with classroom hardware.

Why the price and the first step matter
For a small centre, the first question is not “which has the most features?” It’s “can I try this tonight, with my own batches, without a sales call?”
Most tools here ask you to talk to sales before you see a price. That’s normal for big schools, which buy once a year. It’s slow for a tuition centre that wants to stop using the receipt book next week.
InstiOne starts the other way round. You sign up, add a course, a batch and your students, and record your first fee. If it doesn’t suit you, you’ve lost an evening, not a sales cycle.
What InstiOne does
Everything below is in the free plan.
- Enquiries to admissions. Note every enquiry, set a follow-up date, and turn it into an admission in one click. See admissions CRM.
- Fees and receipts. Record cash and UPI payments with numbered receipts, instalments, dues and refunds, and see a GST estimate when you charge tax. See fees and receipts.
- Attendance. Mark a class in seconds, or let students check in with a code. See attendance.
- Batches and timetables. Plan batches, rooms and teachers, and let the timetable build itself from a weekly pattern.
- Tests, results and certificates. Enter marks, publish results, and issue certificates anyone can check with a QR code. See certificates.
- A student app, more than one branch, and roles so each staff member sees only what they need.
Where another tool may suit you better
We’d rather you pick the right tool than pick us and leave.
- Selling recorded courses online. InstiOne doesn’t sell course videos yet; it’s on our roadmap. If that’s most of your income, look at a course-selling app.
- Fingerprint attendance machines. Classpro mentions biometric attendance. InstiOne uses a class code on the student’s phone instead.
- A long track record. Fedena and Classplus have been around for years, with many reviews. InstiOne is new. The free plan lets you judge it on your own data, at no cost.
How to choose in one evening
- Write down the five things you do most every week: admit a student, take a fee, mark attendance, chase dues, plan next month’s batch.
- Try them in two tools. Time each task and note what went wrong.
- Check that you can export your data whenever you want. You should never be locked in.
- Ask what happens to the price when you grow past 100 or 500 students.
