Closed source

Who owns your data?

Most email marketing platforms store sensitive data, such as student and parent information, in third-party servers, often hosted outside your country of operation.

This raises serious compliance concerns under GDPR, FERPA, and other local data protection laws. For many schools, especially public institutions, this is no longer acceptable.

Data may be exposed to third parties

No control over how and where data is stored

Unclear terms of conditions

Generic tools with no support for school-specific needs

Faqs

Simple, clear, helpful.

Do you provide Mautic hosting?

We can provide infrastructure if needed. However, for schools and government institutions, we strongly recommend that the server is hosted internally, within your country of operation. Our dedicated team can support you exclusively with setup, maintenance, and upgrades.

Can this work with our existing student platform?

Yes. We can integrate via CSV, Google Sheets, or API-based middleware depending on your system. We’ll need to review your platform and requirements in detail to provide a specific integration plan.

Is Mautic really free?

Mautic is fully open-source. You own the code and the data, forever.

Is Mautic GDPR-compliant?

Yes – 100%. Mautic is even listed in the official European Union open-source software library. You retain full control over data storage, consent, retention and tracking, ensuring compliance with both national and international regulations.

Can we migrate from Mailchimp or another tool?

Yes. We can help you migrate contact lists, segments, campaigns and forms from platforms like Mailchimp, Sendinblue, among others, into your Mautic instance.

Is Mautic suitable for small institutions?

Absolutely. Mautic is fully scalable and works for both small schools with simple needs and large institutions with complex automation. There are no artificial limits, you can manage unlimited contacts, campaigns and segments.
