2020 Year in Review

January 1, 2021

It was our privilege to serve your school during the challenging year of 2020. With your collaboration and feedback, we have been able to continue supporting schools around the world with new features and services to help adapt to the new normal.

Product Updates

2020 has seen a number of improvements to our existing platform; the major launch of our Transport & Dismissal Module, support for online parent-teacher Zoom meetings (a response to many school closures this year), a brand new user interface and many improvements to our payments module including some huge time-saving features.

It's been a tough year, and we feel schools deserve a real pat on the back for all they have done in 2020 - read our words of thanks here.

Growing Partnerships

In 2020 we strengthened our position within Faria’s Unified Family Experience, including a deeper integration with ManageBac and OpenApply.

We also partnered with new payment providers including Braintree and BlueSnap, enabling payments through SchoolsBuddy via PayPal, ApplePay and GooglePay (region dependent).
