How MarkTrack compares
Most school software is built for a mainstream private school and treats Qur'an as one more subject in the gradebook. These pages set out, plainly, where that is fine and where it is not — and what we do differently for Islamic schools.
A Gradelink alternative built for Islamic schools
Gradelink is a capable, long-established student information system for private K-12 schools. MarkTrack is a learning management system for Islamic schools specifically — Hifz and Qaidah tracking are first-class records, not a subject you improvise inside a general-purpose gradebook.
A FACTS SIS alternative for Islamic schools and madrasahs
FACTS is enterprise school-administration software built for large private and parochial schools, with tuition management to match. MarkTrack is aimed at the Islamic school, madrasah and Hifz academy that wants the same rigour without the enterprise footprint — and with Qur'an progress treated as a real record.
Google Classroom for madrasahs: what it does, and what it leaves you doing by hand
Google Classroom is a genuinely good, free place to hand out work and collect it back. It is not a student information system — it does not take roll for the office, does not produce a report card, does not bill a family, and has no idea what juz a child has reached. Here is the honest split.
Canvas for Islamic schools: a real LMS, and the half of a school it does not cover
Canvas is a serious learning management system and, for coursework, a more powerful one than ours. It is also a course-delivery platform, not a school. It will not enrol a family, invoice them, keep the office's attendance record, or know what juz a child has reached.
A QuickSchools alternative for Islamic schools
This is the closest comparison on this site. QuickSchools and MarkTrack are aimed at similar schools — small to mid-sized, no IT department, set up in an afternoon. The honest difference is not the gradebook. It is everything specific to an Islamic school.
