← CompareBildena vs QuickSchools

The whole school — with a real timetabling engine inside.

QuickSchools is an affordable all-in-one school system — gradebook, attendance, parent portal and billing — with automated scheduling in its top plan. Bildena School covers the same ground with a dedicated timetabling engine at its centre. Or keep QuickSchools and add Bildena Scheduler for the timetable alone.

Where Bildena is stronger

The timetable is the product.

  1. 01

    Scheduling is not an add-on

    In QuickSchools, automated scheduling comes with the Athena plan or as a paid add-on. In Bildena, the solver is in both products.

  2. 02

    A solver that explains itself

    Hard rules and weighted preferences on Google OR-Tools CP-SAT — and when a timetable is impossible, Bildena names the rules that clash.

  3. 03

    Duty and supervision planning

    Break and corridor duties assigned by the solver and shared out fairly — included.

  4. 04

    Clash-free timetables for individual students

    Elective bands run in parallel, and no student is ever in two lessons at once.

  5. 05

    The school day around it

    Bildena School adds registers, letters, grades, fees and enrolment next to the timetable — one system.

Where QuickSchools is stronger

To be fair.

  1. 01

    All-in-one, already proven

    Gradebook, report cards, transcripts, attendance, parent portal, admissions and fee tracking, with years of use. Bildena School is new.

  2. 02

    Cheap for small schools

    From $0.99 per student per month, with a 30-student minimum.

  3. 03

    Apps for parents and teachers

    Separate apps for parents and for teachers, on iOS and Android.

  4. 04

    Changes reach families instantly

    Schedule changes go to teachers, students and parents straight away.
