The short version

  • Only Miro Education has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Miro Education student plan limited to 2 years duration; UltraCamp per-reservation pricing scales linearly with growth, so a large camp pays substantially more than it would under a flat licence and has little leverage until it passes 2,000 reservations and enters quoted territory.
  • They diverge on capability: Miro Education covers Infinite canvas, UltraCamp covers Per-reservation registration.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

What people use each for

The jobs each tool is most often brought in to do.

Miro Education

  • Classrooms and universities collaborating on visual boards and diagramsnot UltraCamp

UltraCamp

  • A camp that wants to know its software cost per registration before the season rather than negotiate an annual licencenot Miro Education
  • A conference or retreat centre that rents facilities off-season and needs booking as well as camper registrationnot Miro Education

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Miro Education

  • Student plan limited to 2 years duration
  • Institution plan pricing starts at 50% discount but no base price published
  • Lower tiers have limited AI credits

UltraCamp

  • Per-reservation pricing scales linearly with growth, so a large camp pays substantially more than it would under a flat licence and has little leverage until it passes 2,000 reservations and enters quoted territory.
  • UltraCamp retains 30% of photo gallery sales, a revenue share far above the 3% it takes on merchandise, which turns a parent-facing nicety into a meaningful cost of doing business.
  • Health and medical record handling is thinner than CampMinder's, so camps with a staffed health centre and daily medication rounds often find it insufficient.
  • The interface and reporting are functional rather than modern, and building the unlimited custom reports on offer takes administrator time the camp has to fund itself.
  • The $1,200 annual minimum means very small camps pay for reservations they never make, so the effective per-reservation cost for a camp of two hundred is closer to $6.
