INNOVATOR IN SCHOOL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Our Journey with Technology
In 2000, when the concept of school ERP software was obscure, school administrations had been mostly following the manual way of working. Many schools faced problems such as the digitalisation of data, tedious and repetitive calculations for an error-free progress report card, preparation of summary sheets and promotion lists, non-realisation of fees, and leakages in fee collection. Other tough tasks like the maintenance of the caution deposit register, errors in salary/PF calculations, EPF submissions, registrations for admissions, and form distribution had been challenging. Difficulties in library management were centred on issuing and return of books, loss and damage of books, and timely return of books. Seamless communication like circulars and newsletters, its printing and circulation had been tedious too.
With a deep understanding of these problems that worried and occupied the time of school management over the years, the start-up promotors at Entab took on a new mission of providing new-age 360-degree solutions using a single platform to automate and transform school management while also attending to seamless communication with all stakeholders of a school - students, parents, teachers, principals, and school management.
With insights on managing resources involving man, money, material /machines, and minutes (time), and know-how on using technology for resource management and communications as early as 2000, Entab became a pioneer in the domain of School ERP solutions in India ensuring streamlined work-flow as well as revolutionise the education sector with digital innovations. The journey continues with its innovative concepts and new-age features from on-premises software to online software, which allows a comfortable environment bringing everyone to the same page, and helps to communicate easily whereby the life of the parents, teachers, and management becomes easy and fast-moving in the truest sense!
The microchip that started its production in 1965 had just a few hundred Megahertz. The speed keeps on increasing and today it is doubling in 18 months. When Entab was established, the speed of a computer was just 700 MHz and today it runs into many GHz; the hard disk size was 20 GB, weighing a Kg, but today 1 TB (more than 50 times of 20 GB) weighs about 200 Grams only. This indicates that the two factors that play a big role in our life are ‘Innovation’ and ‘Speed’. These two factors harbour a jackpot of different functionalities and will definitely take us to great heights!
Today’s problems are not centred on managing the operational activities of a school, but rather on safer systems, secure solutions, and various analytics that can help the organisation to build and grow with the right decisions, based on new knowledge derived from the data analysis. ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning, but today it is a tool to BUILD and GROW your organisation pivotal to creating a safe and secure management system to protect the data related to the school by allowing access to only authorised personnel.
There is a wider acceptance of technology today. The need to survive moves at a very high speed. Humans get restricted in their speed and are likely to be fallible, but machines do not. Machines are free from human errors and procrastination.
Today it gives immense pleasure and joy on having our own innovation centre, headquartered in New Delhi with 32 regional centres across India and serving a robust clientele of over hundreds of good schools who aspire to be the best. Entab has been in the domain by the name of CampusCare®, a proven and trusted ERP software, that evolved over 23 years. It is a one-stop ERP solution providing a smart, straightforward, and innovative school management system .
