Budgeting software for schools is a secure online platform where school administrators, finance teams, and educators can log in to manage and track budgets, funding, and expenses. It centralizes all financial data and workflows, making it easy to allocate resources, approve requests, and generate reports—so you don’t have to rely on scattered spreadsheets or lengthy email chains. This helps keep school finances organized and transparent for everyone involved.
Softr makes it simple to create budgeting software tailored for your school’s needs. You can connect your existing data, like budget records in Airtable, approval workflows in Notion, or student activity funds in Google Sheets, and set up a secure platform where staff can log in, manage budget requests, update allocations, and download reports—all in one place.
You don’t need any coding expertise. Start with a template or build from scratch, customize the layout, set permissions for different users, and brand the portal to match your school. It’s fast to launch, easy to keep updated, and flexible enough to support your school’s evolving financial processes.
You can include a variety of features to suit your school’s financial management. Common examples are:
\- User logins – so each staff member or administrator can access their own budget section or data
\- Custom dashboards – to display budget overviews, funding allocations, or expense tracking
\- Forms – for submitting budget requests, reimbursements, or approvals
\- File sharing – to upload and download invoices, receipts, or funding documents securely
\- Search and filters – to quickly find specific budgets, transactions, or reports
\- Tables, lists, and detail views – to present categories like department budgets, purchase orders, or grant tracking
\- Comments or status updates – for keeping communication about budget approvals in one place
\- Charts – to visualize budget usage, funding sources, or spending trends
\- Calendar view – for important deadlines, reporting periods, or funding cycles
\- Permissions and roles – so different users only see the information relevant to their role
All features are built using Softr’s drag-and-drop blocks, so you can set these up without writing code. If your school’s needs change, it’s easy to update your budgeting software at any time.
No coding skills are needed. You can build your school's budgeting software entirely using Softr’s visual editor. Everything from the interface to user permissions can be customized without writing a single line of code.
Yes. You can manage multiple schools or departments in a single budgeting portal. Each user only sees the content and budget data assigned to them, based on their login and role. This is helpful for school districts, administrators, or anyone overseeing multiple campuses or departments.
Softr supports a wide range of data sources for your budgeting software. You can connect to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, HubSpot, Clickup, Xano, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, BigQuery, and more. You can also bring in data from other sources using the REST API.
You’re not limited to just one. You can integrate multiple data sources into the same budgeting portal and display them together—so your school’s software, for example, can combine data from both Airtable and Google Sheets at once. Most sources support real-time, two-way sync, so any updates in your app or data source stay in sync automatically.
Yes, Softr gives you full control over how users experience your school budgeting portal. You can customize the layout, navigation, and content to match your district’s branding and workflow. Each page or block can be shown or hidden based on who’s logged in, so every school or department only sees what’s relevant to them.
You can also set up different user roles, such as school administrator, finance officer, or district admin—and define exactly what each role can view or edit. For example, school-level users can see only their own budget data, while district admins can oversee all records. You can also create personalized views by filtering data based on the logged-in user.
This level of customization is especially useful when you’re managing multiple schools or departments in the same app. It helps keep the portal organized, secure, and tailored to each user.
Yes, you can. You don’t need to have existing budget data in another tool to start building with Softr. If you’re starting from scratch, you can use Softr Databases, which is built right into the platform and works seamlessly with any budgeting application you create.
But if you already have data in tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, Supabase, or SQL, you can connect those as well. You can also use the REST API connector to bring in data from other sources. Either way, you have full control over how your school’s budget data is organized and displayed in your portal.
Yes, you can fully white-label your budgeting software for schools in Softr. You can use your school or district’s logo, brand colors, fonts, and custom domain to make the platform feel like an integrated part of your institution. You can also remove all Softr branding, so staff and administrators only see your school’s identity throughout the experience.
Yes, you can. Softr gives you a lot of flexibility to control both the design and layout of your budgeting platform for schools. You can adjust colors, fonts, spacing, and page structure to match your school or district’s brand. You can also decide how each page is arranged, select which blocks go where, and set what different users—like teachers, administrators, or finance staff—see when they log in.
To display your data, you can add different types of blocks depending on your needs:
\- Table blocks – to show structured data like budget breakdowns, funding requests, or expense tracking
\- List or Card blocks – to highlight things like department budgets, approval statuses, or resource allocations
\- Detail View – to show one record at a time, such as a budget request or report
\- Forms – for submitting budget proposals
\- Charts – to visualize spending and budget trends
\- Calendar blocks – to display upcoming deadlines or budget review meetings
If your school’s content or design needs change later, it’s easy to make updates right in the visual builder.
Softr is built with security in mind. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest, and your budgeting software for schools is hosted on secure, reliable infrastructure. Softr apps give you full control over who can see and do what in your platform. You can set up role-based permissions, manage users directly within your data source, set visibility rules, and apply global restrictions to protect sensitive financial data across your app.
For platforms connected to external data sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, Softr doesn’t store your data—it displays it in real time based on your access settings. You remain in control of your data and who can view or edit it.
Softr also follows industry best practices for authentication, access control, and system monitoring to help keep your school’s budget data safe.
You can get started for free. Softr’s Free plan lets you publish one budgeting software app with up to 10 users and 2 user groups, and includes support for standard data sources like Softr Databases, Airtable, Google Sheets, and more.
If your school or district needs more users or advanced features, you can explore the paid plans for additional capacity and capabilities: <http://softr.io/pricing>

What sets Softr apart is how quickly you can go from concept to a working system, and how well it connects with your existing data sources.
Unlike some no-code tools that focus on mobile apps or are more developer-oriented, Softr is built for non-technical teams who need full control over layout, user experience, and permissions. You can build on top of real-time data from tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Softr Databases, or SQL, and create secure, branded apps that teachers, administrators, and finance teams can log into.
You can customize everything visually—from content and design to who sees what. Since Softr includes features like user roles, forms, conditional logic, and API support out of the box, you don’t have to patch together multiple tools to launch a polished budgeting platform.
Yes. Softr supports a wide range of integrations so you can connect your budgeting software for schools to the rest of your tools. You can sync with systems like Stripe for payments, automate approval processes with Zapier, Make, or N8N, and connect to other educational or financial platforms.

Whether you need to send budget data to another system, trigger automations based on user actions, or display information from other tools, you can build it into your budgeting platform, all without writing code.
