Who ClassReach is best for
ClassReach is a strong fit for traditional private schools — especially classical schools — that need detailed gradebook functionality, course-based transcripts, and standards tracking. If your school operates on a traditional subject-grade model and needs official academic records, ClassReach's depth in that area is valuable.
Who MicroCampus is best for
MicroCampus is the right fit for microschools, learning pods, hybrid programs, and private tutors that need a practical operational platform — not a traditional SIS. If you're collecting tuition, tracking attendance across flexible schedules, communicating with families, and documenting learning through portfolios and narrative reports rather than letter grades, MicroCampus is purpose-built for your model.
