What is InfinCE?
InfinCE is an open-source student information system (SIS) designed as an alternative to commercial products like Infinite Campus. It was created to provide core student data management tools for schools at no cost.
Key features of InfinCE include:
- Attendance tracking with seating charts
- Gradebooks with assignment tracking
- Reporting and analytics
- Master scheduling
- Student demographics and records management
- Parent and student portal
As an open source project, InfinCE is free for schools to download, install, and modify. It uses modern web technologies and can be hosted on-premises or in the cloud. The goal of InfinCE is to deliver robust SIS capabilities without expensive licensing or vendor lock-in. It gives schools control over their data while spending funds on other needs.
The InfinCE community continues advancing the platform with new features and improvements. It represents a promising no-cost alternative for K-12 schools looking to reduce overhead costs while still providing teachers, parents, and administrators with a fully-featured SIS.
