This Is What the K-12 SIS Market Looks Like

Student Information Systems
K12 By School District - LisTedTECH

As mentioned in a previous post, (https://www.listedtech.com/blog/k12-student-information-systems), we are actively getting data for K-12 school districts. We currently have over 5,000 school districts that represent over 50,000,000 registered students in Canada and the USA.

Even if we are still collecting the data, we can now start to look at market shares. We generated the graph below by creating enrolment groups for the school districts, not individual schools.

To be able to read this graph properly, you have to consider that the sum of percentages is made for one enrollment group (column) and not for one SIS (row). Taking Aeries as an example, this SIS system has a 2% market share in the smaller school boards (under 2,500) but has an 8% market share in the bigger (10,000 and over).

More in depth…

  • We notice that the market shares for a product are somewhat similar across the four enrollment groups. Infinite Campus has around 15 % of market shares, Tyler Technologies has 2% across the board, Illuminate has 2-3 %, etc.

  • In some cases however, the ‘10,000 and over’ group is slightly different: While PowerSchool, Infinite Campus and Skyward dominate the smaller school boards, their market shares drop to the benefit of eSchoolPlus, Synergy and others in larger school boards.

  • We also note a difference in active companies in the K-12 group compared to the HigherEd institutions. Only a few products share both sectors: while PowerSchool is very strong in K-12, it is almost nonexistent in the HigherEd market. See https://www.listedtech.com/blog/student-informations-systems-by-degree-type for more HigherEd data.

Who Are HigherEd’s Tech Leaders?

This year, I’ve been revisiting some of the classic business books: Blue Ocean Shift, Free, The Innovator’s Dilemma, Zero to One, and of course, Crossing the Chasm. That last one really got me thinking about early adopters. In tech markets, they’re the people (or in HigherEd, the institutions) who are comfortable taking risks, trying something new, and shaping the market ... Who Are HigherEd’s Tech Leaders?  Read More

Anthology’s Chapter 11 Filing: Breaking Up to Refocus

September 2025 marked a major turning point for Anthology, the owner of Blackboard and several other higher education technology platforms. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. after efforts to sell itself or parts of its business outside of court failed. The filing is not a liquidation. Instead, it is a structured reorganization designed to ... Anthology’s Chapter 11 Filing: Breaking Up to Refocus  Read More

Rethinking Market Saturation in EdTech

Market saturation is a concept we often discuss at ListEdTech because it comes up frequently with our clients. Investors want to know if a market still has room to grow, while startups want to understand whether they are entering a space with opportunities or one that is already crowded. Last year, we explored saturation by ... Rethinking Market Saturation in EdTech  Read More
