OpenSIS is a centralized management software system that manages students, classes, facilities, and much more. This downloadable tool offers numerous features to centralize and organize information on students and the school system. The Student Demographics function keeps track of the characteristics of enrolled students. The Contact Information function keeps a complete database of student, parent, and emergency contact info. The Scheduling feature maintains a massive list of all students’ schedules and courses. Grading is kept in line with the Gradebook and Report Cards functions. Other key data, such as health records, attendance, and discipline records, can all be managed with OpenSIS as well. Furthermore, this student information system is free of charge. Users may try out and switch over to OpenSIS at no cost at all.
“OpenSIS is a free student information system that rivals costly commercial alternatives in looks, functionality and ease of use and administration. OpenSIS is the centerpiece of an evolving set of integrated open source education applications that support schools and districts. OpenSIS is a game changer and a new paradigm in administrative education software. Our founders have always said that if we can produce an open source package that is easy to use, looks great, has the same functionality as commercial alternatives and represents a TCO up to 75% less than comparable solutions, then the decision should be easy.”
OpenSIS is a very detailed and complete student management system. Moreover, this is a free tool, but closely rivals other systems that may have a hefty price tag. This is a great alternative for schools and districts that may be under budget pressure.
