Where iBrain wins

Five things the competitor doesn't have

Offline, online and university in one view

CRM for an offline center, online courses with homework, and a university module (departments, curricula, ECTS): one system instead of five services.

QR payments and multi-currency

Accept payments by QR in 30 seconds, track debts, and take payment in the school's currency across 5 CA countries, without third-party terminals.

Kyrgyz interface

Cabinets in Kyrgyz, Russian and English. The ky locale exists in no competitor.

University and college (ECTS)

The only SaaS platform in the CIS with faculties, departments, majors, ECTS-based curricula, sessions and transcripts.

Open 20% partner program

A lifetime 20% of every payment from a referred school: public terms, not a closed deal.

Frequent questions

What people usually ask before switching

How is iBrain different from AlfaCRM?
AlfaCRM is a strong CRM for accounting and reporting in an offline center. iBrain does the same and adds full online courses with homework, a university module with ECTS and a Kyrgyz interface. If you only need offline accounting, AlfaCRM handles it well; if you also want online and growth into higher education, iBrain unifies it in one view.
AlfaCRM also has QR payments, what's the difference?
QR icons appear in both, but in iBrain QR acceptance, debt tracking and multi-currency across 5 CA countries are combined into a single payment flow built for the region.
Does iBrain have a university or college module?
Yes: faculties, departments, majors, curricula and ECTS. It's the only SaaS platform in the CIS with higher-education support; AlfaCRM has no such module.
Can I move from AlfaCRM without losing data?
Yes. During the free month a manager migrates your students, groups and payment history, you don't have to export anything manually.
Does iBrain have a mobile app?
iBrain works as an app (PWA) with push notifications, without store installs and at no extra cost. For many competitors the app is a paid add-on.
