Best School & College IT Management Software in India

How to choose — questions worth asking

Does it price in INR without per-user fees?
Does it handle GST/HSN and Indian compliance out of the box?
Does it unify helpdesk and asset management, or are they separate products you pay for twice?
Can you import and export your data freely, with no lock-in?
Is there a genuine free plan so you can trial it with real data?
How quickly can a small team get set up without a consultant?
