Fedena is used by 40,000 institutes and powers 20 million users worldwide. Coming from humble beginnings, Foradian has come a long way and in an announcement today, has launched Fedena Marketplace.

Fedena Marketplace is an initiative to innovate education technologies. It aims to be a one-stop shop for tools needed to run an institution efficiently. The marketplace will have native plugins which will add functionality to Fedena as well as integration plugins to integrate Fedena with other popular education technology software and services. An institution will also be able to find professional services and hardwares to purchase.

Shoaib Ahmed, President at Tally Solutions Pvt Ltd and Soumitra Sharma who is part of the Investments Team at IDG Ventures India Advisors were the guests of Honour at the launch event today in Bangalore.

Sharing his vision about the Fedena Marketplace, Abdulla Hisham, Co-founder and MD at Foradian says, “We want the Fedena Marketplace to be similar to Amazon marketplace targeted at schools and colleges. Even though the core offerings will be Fedena plugins and non-plugin. Non-fedena products and services will also be introduced gradually.”

Examples of the plugins available:

AIndra, one of the partner technical companies, has developed AIndra Attendance Management plugin for Fedena, which allow schools to mark student attendance with just a click on a mobile phone. AIndra Attendance Management uses artificial intelligence technology to scan student’s face and mark him present in the records thus saving both time and efforts.

Fedena Marketplace showcases some unique and advanced Fedena plugins like 55444 Search developed by Mobicube which uses 55444 SMS mobile search technology by Innoz, an offline search engine that allows schools to search through their data with an SMS, Super Receptionist by Knowlarity, an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) for any institution.
