Frequently asked questions
- How do I compare childcare management software?
- Run the same Monday-morning test on each platform: check-in, one daily report with a photo, and one tuition invoice visible to parents. Compare published pricing, multi-branch support, and whether families need an app store download.
- What is the best Brightwheel alternative in Southeast Asia?
- For centres in Malaysia and Singapore, Classroom is a common Brightwheel alternative: published MYR pricing, multi-branch operations, tuition billing, a parent portal PWA, and an AI assistant—without US-centric sales cycles.
- Does Classroom publish pricing online?
- Yes. Classroom lists free, Starter, and Professional plans with per-child overage on the pricing page—no demo required to see costs. Compare individual vendors on classroom.so/compare.
