RosarioSIS review
A broad, self-hosted SIS for schools that need academic and administrative workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
RosarioSIS is a web-based student information and school management system for K–12 schools and other educational institutions. Its scope spans student records, enrollment, course scheduling, gradebooks, assignments, report cards, transcripts, attendance, discipline, billing, food service, registration, exports, and parent access. The software is available as free self-hosted open-source software under GNU GPLv2 or later, with optional cloud-hosted plans and premium add-ons. Responsive access supports computers, tablets, and smartphones.
The published plans separate the no-cost self-hosted edition from paid options. PRIMARY includes unlimited staff and parents, unlimited schools, school management modules, and email support. PREMIUM keeps those unlimited allowances and adds premium modules and add-ons with priority email support. The Premium Bundle costs €599 as a one-time payment and includes premium add-ons in one download, 30 days of email support, and updates for one year. Cloud hosting and premium add-ons are priced separately from the self-hosted software itself. This structure suits schools that can manage their own deployment or want to select paid additions as their needs grow.
RosarioSIS also fits schools with an existing digital ecosystem. Integrations include Moodle, PayPal, Stripe, Jitsi Meet, Google SSO, and Microsoft SSO, while PDF generation and Excel, CSV, and XML exports support administrative workflows. Parent, student, teacher, and administrator accounts provide role-based access across the system. Schools seeking one broad platform for academic records, attendance, fees, admissions, and communication should consider RosarioSIS. It is less suitable for organizations that want to avoid self-hosting responsibilities, need only a narrow scheduling tool, or require verified transport-management coverage.
