About Us

Incorporated in 2011, Franciscan Solutions Private Limited has been at the forefront of empowering K–12 schools with state-of-the-art technology for over a decade. With a deep commitment to innovation and service, Franciscan has consistently added value to all school stakeholders—students, parents, teachers, and management—through smart, integrated solutions.

Our flagship product, Franciscan e-Care, is a comprehensive School ERP software featuring 60+ interconnected modules and thousands of insightful reports and analytics. It transforms traditional schools into SMART SCHOOLS, enhancing efficiency, communication, and decision-making across the board.

Over the years, hundreds of schools have adopted Franciscan e-Care, making it one of the most trusted and awarded school management systems in the country.

Franciscan Solutions is a name synonymous with quality, reliability, and trust in the education technology space. We are an ISO 9001:2015 certified company, demonstrating our commitment to delivering products and services that meet the highest international quality standards.

With a customer base of over 1000+ satisfied institutions, including prestigious clients like the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI), the Vatican Embassy (India & Nepal), and the CBCI Education Society, we have established a solid reputation for excellence.

Our focus on building innovative, client-centric solutions tailored to the unique needs of each institution has helped us forge lasting relationships—making Franciscan Solutions a preferred partner for schools seeking reliable and future-ready education technology.

Franciscan particularly focuses on three aspects of student development-

Automation of operational and academic processes:

Franciscan e-Care is a complete software solution for managing the entire student lifecycle, from admission to issuing TC. It comes with over 60 modules (Admission, Accounts, Fee, Payroll, Report Card, Library, etc.), designed to automate school operations and academics. This system not only helps the school's administrative and teaching staff work more efficiently but also saves them time, allowing them to focus more on their primary responsibility: imparting education.

Communication:

Franciscan e-Care is the first educational ERP that recognized the need for better communication and made major improvements in the education sector. As the best education ERP software, Franciscan was honored as the 'Company of the Year 2014 in e-Communication Vertical.' It was also the first education company approved by TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) to send SMS to parents using the transactional route. It solves communication issues more effectively. All the software is set up with SMS, mobile app alerts, and a portal messaging system for quick updates. Important information like homework, leave notices, appointment scheduling, PTM dates, assignments, complaints, and updates are sent straight to parents' phones. We are the leading school ERP in SMS delivery, with 24/7 support and a 99.99% delivery success rate.

Security:

Franciscan e-Care is the world's first to introduce 'eSmartGuard,' an AI-powered Visitor and Child Pick-up Management System using advanced face recognition technology. This helps reduce the risk of unauthorized visitors and incorrect child pick-ups by verifying everyone with pre-registered faces and identity documents. Another innovative security feature is 'MySecureKid,' a smartwatch with GPS tracking and dual control that automatically switches control between the school and parents, both inside and outside the school. This ensures student safety within the school without disrupting school activities and allows parents to stay connected with their children anytime, anywhere.

Why is it called e-Care?

At Franciscan, we believe a child’s development is not an individual’s duty but a shared responsibility—among parents, teachers, and school management. Each plays a vital role in nurturing a child's future.

While all stakeholders strive to give their best, gaps in communication and coordination often hold back potential. Franciscan e‑Care was created to bridge these gaps using the power of technology-enabled care.

The “e” in e‑Care stands for electronic, but it also represents efficiency, empathy, and empowerment. Our platform connects all stakeholders in real time, enabling informed decisions and stronger collaboration.

Parents stay involved, teachers save time and focus on teaching, and schools manage operations seamlessly—all in one ecosystem.

Rooted in Franciscan values of service and compassion, e‑Care brings technology and care together, ensuring that every child receives the support they truly deserve.
