An LMS vs a full school platform
Moodle is built to deliver online courses. EasyClass does that, plus everything else: admissions, grades, billing, and communications — all in one place.

- Add another system for student records
- Add a tool for billing
- Set up Zoom or BigBlueButton for video
- Keep all these tools running together
In the end, 3 to 5 different tools to manage.
With EasyClass
- Set up programs and fee structures
- Configure courses, grades, and attendance
- Launch courses and billing
One tool that does it all.

Setup
"Free" vs transparent
Moodle is open-source and free to download. EasyClass publishes its pricing. The real difference is in what each one actually costs to run.
EasyClass
- Platform base499 MAD/mo
- Staff seats19 MAD/mo/seat
- Student packs399 MAD/mo–3,499 MAD/mo
- Modules299 MAD/mo–4,990 MAD/mo
- Setup & onboarding4,999 MAD–19,999 MAD
Start with the core platform, then add only what you need. No feature gating, no hidden costs.
Moodle
Moodle Core is free and open-source — the software costs nothing to download.
But you pay for hosting, or a MoodleCloud / partner plan billed per user per year.
Most schools add paid plugins, theme work, and integrations for billing, video, and records.
And someone has to install, update, secure, and maintain it — usually an IT contractor or staff member.
With EasyClass you know your total before you start. With Moodle the software is free — the running costs are not, and they are rarely listed upfront.
Who each one is for
Both tools are good. But they are not made for the same kinds of institutions.
Moodle is for
Large universities with a technical team to run their own servers.
Institutions that need SCORM, LTI, and a wide plugin ecosystem.
Organizations where course delivery is the main need and other tools already exist.
Institutions that value open-source software and deep customization.
EasyClass is for
Private schools that want to run everything from one tool, without a large IT team.
Schools that need a French or English interface and local payment options.
Schools that want to see prices before talking to sales.
Schools where courses, administration, and finance need to live together.

Frequently asked questions
For most private schools, yes. EasyClass does everything Moodle does for courses, plus the rest of school management: programs, billing, attendance, transcripts, and communications.
Most EasyClass features will be new to you (programs, billing, attendance). Courses and assignments can be imported during setup. It is usually simpler than switching between two LMS platforms.
Yes. EasyClass is fully bilingual in French and English. The platform, the team, and the documentation are all available in both languages.
Between 3 and 5 days with guided setup, or 2 to 3 weeks with full onboarding. Training and data migration are included.
Moodle's software is open-source and free to download. In practice, running it involves hosting, plugins, integrations, and technical maintenance — costs that vary by institution. EasyClass publishes its pricing so you know your total upfront.
