Question 1

Why is Academic Scheduler better than aScTimeTables?

Accepted Answer

Academic Scheduler is cloud-native, shows all pricing publicly (from $10/month), and gives you a fully unrestricted 14-day trial with no watermarks and no disabled exports.
      aScTimeTables requires contacting sales for pricing, adds watermarks to trial printouts, and is desktop-first.
      Most schools complete setup in Academic Scheduler in under an hour — versus weeks of training with aSc.

Question 2

How does Academic Scheduler compare to Untis?

Accepted Answer

Untis uses opaque modular pricing — you pay a base licence plus each add-on separately, with no public prices listed.
      Academic Scheduler bundles everything into a single flat-rate plan. Untis also has a steep, weeks-long learning curve and German-first documentation.
      Academic Scheduler was built in English from the ground up, with a guided wizard that gets most schools scheduling in under an hour.

Question 3

What makes Academic Scheduler different from TimetableMaster?

Accepted Answer

TimetableMaster hides pricing behind a loading spinner and meters AI scheduling features as credits — so heavy users hit paywalls mid-semester.
      Academic Scheduler shows every plan price upfront and includes unlimited automated scheduling on every plan, no credits required.
      We also offer a no-credit-card, 14-day free trial, and a refund policy — TimetableMaster offers neither.

Question 4

Do I need to pay to see Academic Scheduler's pricing?

Accepted Answer

Never. Academic Scheduler's full pricing — Basic $10/mo, Pro $15/mo, Premium $20/mo — is always publicly listed on our
      pricing page.
      No quote request, no sales call, no surprises. Unlike most competitors, you know the exact cost before you sign up.

Question 5

Can I switch from my current timetable software to Academic Scheduler?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Start your 14-day free trial (no credit card required) and enter your school data — teachers, subjects, rooms, and classes — through our guided wizard.
      Most administrators complete setup in under an hour and generate their first conflict-free schedule the same day.
      If you have questions during the switch, our support team responds within 12 hours.

Question 6

What features does Academic Scheduler include on every plan?

Accepted Answer

Every plan includes automated conflict-free scheduling, automatic clash detection, PDF and Excel export, shareable timetable links, daily/weekly/monthly views, and teacher workload tracking.
      Pro adds substitution management and collaborative sharing. Premium adds exam timetable creation, exam clash prevention, and an analytics dashboard.
      No hidden modules, no per-seat fees.
