Hello, We Are ManageBac+
We provide a Curriculum-First Learning Platform for the world's leading international schools. Founded in 2006, we serve over 800,000 students and 3,000 schools in 130 countries.
Our Core Principles
We deliver efficiency.
We measure our success by the amount of time saved and paperwork eliminated.
Software should be affordable.
Which is why our service is priced reasonably with no server required.
We don’t nickel and dime.
Our competitors love charging fees for setup, online training, maintenance, and upgrades. We don’t surprise you with hidden fees, and aim to operate as transparently as possible.
Our schools are our investors.
They fund our development by paying for our service and by providing us with new ideas. We answer to them.
We are patient long-term builders.
Benjamin Franklin once said, “Energy and persistence conquer all things.” We work hard to build great software and to exceed expectations.
Great service matters.
We take our responsibility seriously. We pride ourselves on our fast e-mail replies and 24/7 accessibility. Whether you are in Hong Kong, Geneva or New York, we are awake when you are.
