Gear Education, Cyprus’s leading educational-technology consultancy and Google for Education partner, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Veracross, the all-in-one, cloud-based school-management system trusted by more than 3,200 independent and private schools across 60+ countries.
This collaboration brings one of the world’s most advanced school information systems (SIS) to Cyprus and Greece, offering a tailored, web-based platform designed to unify administrative operations, streamline communication, and bring clarity to every corner of school life.
“Schools in our region have long struggled with disconnected systems and fragmented workflows,” said Christina Shailas, Founder of Gear Education. “Veracross solves that by offering a single record of truth, where every department, from admissions and academics to finance and alumni, operates from the same source of data. It’s a game-changer.”
Unlike legacy systems, Veracross is not a patchwork of tools. It’s a 100 % web-based, fully integrated SIS, built to support the unique demands of private and international schools. Powered by a distinctive one-person, one-record database, Veracross provides real-time data solutions for every department, ensuring seamless communication, collaboration, and efficient operations.
Its five product brands: Digistorm, Firefly, Magnus Health, ePraise, and the flagship SIS, Veracross, are a comprehensive software solution for independent schools. With a 99 % customer-retention rate and a reputation for excellence, Veracross helps school leaders make data-driven decisions with confidence and ease.
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with Gear Education to bring Veracross to more schools in Cyprus and Greece,” said Keith Krass, Vice President of Partnerships and Global Strategy at Veracross. “Christina and her team have a proven track record of helping schools thrive through the right digital tools. Together, we’re making it easier than ever for schools to break down silos, reduce manual admin, and focus on what really matters: student success.”
In many schools, information is spread across multiple platforms, one system for grades, another for admissions, and yet another for billing. This fragmented approach not only burdens educators but often leads to errors and miscommunication. A school information system (SIS), also known in some regions as a management information system (MIS), centralizes these functions, allowing schools to track, manage, and analyze all their data from one secure place.
Several of the top private schools in Cyprus have already transitioned to Veracross, adopting a modern solution that better aligns with their international standards and UK exam frameworks than their former outdated or limited systems.
What further sets Veracross apart is its robust network of integration partners, ensuring schools don’t have to choose between systems; they can build an ecosystem that works together. Veracross integrates with over 200 software tools and counting, including Google Workspace for Education, Finalsite, Canvas, and many others. With the Veracross open API, the list of integrations is always growing.
Gear Education’s existing partnerships, including Google for Education, mean schools can access expert guidance on how Veracross connects with other platforms they already know and trust. This synergy supports smooth implementation, simplifies training, and accelerates results.
“As more schools across Cyprus and Greece embark on their digital-transformation journeys, we’re proud to offer a system that brings structure to chaos, and clarity to complexity,” added Christina.
Whether it’s syncing class schedules with Google Calendar, managing report cards with a few clicks, or viewing real-time student data in one secure dashboard, Veracross offers a powerful, intuitive solution for schools that want to work smarter.
Gear Education will serve as the regional consultant for Veracross in Cyprus and Greece, offering demos, migration support, pricing consultations, and long-term guidance.
