The trade-off, weighed
What you gain, and what you give up.
The case for
- Every plan includes unlimited users, so adding more teachers, parents and student logins does not change the yearly price the institute pays.
- Onboarding data setup, one to one online training and email plus phone support are included in the entry Standard plan rather than charged separately.
- The Enterprise plan includes the product source code, which suits institutes that want to self host or keep student records inside their own systems.
The catch
- The service is billed a year in advance and the terms state it is non refundable, with no credit for months left unused.
- Adding the mobile app raises the yearly price from 999 to 1599 dollars on Standard and from 1699 to 2299 dollars on Ultimate.
- Foradian is registered in Bengaluru yet publishes plan prices in US dollars, and the terms make the buyer pay all taxes on top.
- All content is deleted immediately when an account is cancelled and the terms state that this information cannot be recovered afterwards.
True India price

Fedena is billed in rupees at ₹4,166.67/mo, so there is no forex markup. A registered business reclaims GST, so that is roughly the cost (₹50,000/yr). Without reclaim, add 18% for about ₹4,917 a month.
