Comparison based on publicly available data as of March 2026. Fedena features may vary by plan.
Hundreds of schools across India have made the switch. Here are the four most common reasons they cite.
Schools save ₹28,000+ per year by switching to EduGradUP's flat ₹12,000/yr pricing. No surprise invoices for add-ons, extra students, or premium support tiers.
Teachers and office staff in Hindi-medium schools struggled with Fedena's English-only interface. EduGradUP provides a native Hindi interface that staff actually use without frustration.
Parents expect a mobile app. EduGradUP includes a free Android and iOS app with fee payments, attendance alerts, and homework — plus WhatsApp notifications that parents actually read.
Fedena's self-hosted model means weeks of server setup. EduGradUP is 100% cloud-hosted on AWS Mumbai — schools go live in 24 hours with free Zoom onboarding and data migration.
Real feedback from schools that moved from Fedena to EduGradUP.
"We were paying ₹55,000/year to Fedena for 800 students, plus extra for the mobile app. EduGradUP gives us everything at ₹12,000 flat. The Hindi interface was the biggest win — our office staff finally use the software without calling IT for every small task."
Rajesh Sharma, Principal
Saraswati Vidya Mandir, Lucknow — 800 students
"Fedena's setup took us 3 weeks and we had to hire a server admin. With EduGradUP, the team set everything up in one day over Zoom. Parents love the WhatsApp fee reminders — our fee collection improved by 40% in the first term itself."
Priya Mehta, Administrator
Delhi Public Academy, Jaipur — 1,200 students
"We evaluated five ERPs after our Fedena contract ended. EduGradUP was the only one offering transport GPS, hostel management, and WhatsApp alerts without charging extra. For a boarding school like ours, that's a must-have — not a premium add-on."
Anand Kumar, Director
St. Francis Residential School, Ranchi — 650 students
