Said about Acadly as an alternative
Acadly is a specialised tool for education, and its attendance automation feature is incredibly beneficial for me and my colleagues.
Free and one of the best app for student engagement and automatic attendance.
Acadly is a good alternative to all the ed-tech apps used for class engagement as it is free and its revolutionary mesh network-based attendance system captures attendance in seconds even for a class of 400+ students.

Good app for class management. It is an LMS on mobile.
worst, need to wait for 24hr manual user checks back to stone age
...in an educational environment, I actually appreciate this kind of service very much. I'm currently waiting for my approval, one day won't hurt me that much. After all their service is free and offers a lot.
