Schools are increasingly moving towards an automated age of cloud, mobile, and big data analytics. There are many reasons schools should implement the strategy of collecting payments through cloud and mobile-based fee management systems. It would be desirable for any type of public and private institution to automate billing/fee collection and drive greater revenue while saving 90% of manual work.

A fee management system solves many problems for schools and helps parents to keep track of fee payments in real-time. No more manual records or calculations on sheets of paper. Using the fee accounting and financial management software, students and parents can use the latest technology tools to connect various departments such as admission, finance, transport, hostel, library, and more. This will result in wider engagement and improved efficiency in educational institutions with the synchronization of data on fee collections. Student fee collection and unpaid fee details can be accessed on mobile devices including iPhone and Android from anywhere and anytime, beyond the campus.
