Case Study: Edsby achieves scalable, secure K-12 collaboration and transparency with Microsoft Azure

How Edsby’s Learning Management System Is Raising the Bar for Students, Parents, Teachers and Administrators from Kindergarten to Grade 1

Edsby is a Markham, Ontario–based startup that built a purpose‑built learning management system for K–12 schools to address outdated communication and limited visibility into student progress. Facing school districts’ chronic budget constraints, massive user populations (students, parents, teachers, administrators) and tightening student-data privacy rules, Edsby needed a secure, scalable way to give all stakeholders real‑time access and better collaboration.

Edsby runs on Microsoft Azure and tightly integrates with Office 365 (Azure AD, OneDrive) with OneNote Class Notebook integration underway, delivering scalable cloud performance, Canadian data‑sovereignty options and simplified sign‑on. The result is improved transparency and engagement across classrooms and districts, easier IT management and growing global adoption — recognition that includes being named a finalist for Microsoft Education Partner of the Year.
