Inkwelly vs Edunext. Modern, hosted, WhatsApp-native.
Edunext has served schools across India for years. Inkwelly is a ground-up modern alternative — WhatsApp-first parent communication, every Indian payment gateway, and a teacher app designed for one-minute attendance.
Why schools consider a switch
The most common theme: schools on Edunext are happy with the modules but want a modern UI, faster pages, and WhatsApp-first parent communication. Inkwelly ships all three.

Frequently asked
Migration from Edunext?
We export students, parents, fees, marks, attendance from Edunext. If the vendor stonewalls, we work from Excel exports and your last term's printed reports. Go-live is typically on the 1st of a month after you review the staging load.
What's different day-to-day?
Teachers mark attendance in under a minute. Parents get fee reminders, receipts, and absence alerts on WhatsApp — not SMS. Accountants export to Tally with one click. That's the practical daily difference.
Pricing?
Per-student per-year, typically ₹1–3 lakh for the school, contact us for a quote based on your size.
Pilot and refund policy?
90-day paid pilot on your real data. If it's not working at day 90, we refund pro-rata and hand your data back. No lock-in.
