AttenQR vs Edusign

AttenQR is an attendance system for classes that uses QR codes to record check-ins and enroll students. Students scan the daily attendance code, and teachers see check-ins appear in real time; a separate permanent code lets students join a course. Teachers can share courses with other teacher accounts to manage attendance together, then export records to CSV. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web, and supports English, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese. It has a free plan at free, while a one-time payment of 9.99 USD removes ads permanently; that premium status is tied to a user account and cannot be transferred. Ads are shown through Google AdMob, and the maker says attendance may not be recorded if a student closes the ad after scanning before it finishes. Course and attendance information is kept in US Firebase Cloud Firestore with encryption in transit and at rest and access controls. Data is automatically deleted 30 days after a course ends, so teachers can export it beforehand.

Edusign combines attendance tracking, administrative document signing, surveys, communications and AI tools for training organizations. Attendance can be recorded in person, remotely or in hybrid settings using QR codes, email, NFC, badges or student IDs. Its feature page says QR codes change every seven seconds, and users can generate a fraud report. The platform supports signing agreements, contracts and handbooks. Campus communication tools include targeted posts, push notifications, scheduled messages and communication analytics. Students can use the iOS or Android app or access their space through a browser. The integrations directory lists 86 connections, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Zapier, Make and an Edusign REST API. Edusign states that it is GDPR compliant and ISO 27001 certified, and describes TLS encryption for data transfers and AES-256 encryption for documents at rest. Security information also describes daily backups to another server, monitoring, redundant backup and continuity plans. Pricing is on request, and a 14-day trial includes all features except archiving. After a plan’s attendance quota, listed additional-signature rates are €0.50, €0.35 or €0.25 depending on plan.
