Where each one falls short

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

Securly

  • Pricing stacks by module and only Filter has rates that surface publicly, so the quoted total for Filter plus Aware plus On-Call is routinely several times the number a district budgeted from the filtering line alone.
  • The safety scanning generates false positives at volume, including song lyrics, creative writing and health-class assignments, and each one consumes counsellor or administrator time that the vendor does not pay for.
  • Alerting on student writing is a surveillance decision with real community consequences, and districts that deploy it without an explicit board policy and parent notification have faced local objections after the fact.
  • Coverage is strongest on managed Chromebooks; personal devices, non-Chrome browsers and encrypted apps outside the agent leave gaps that the compliance story quietly depends on nobody testing.
  • Per-student pricing is charged on enrolment rather than on devices, so a district that issues devices to only some year groups still pays for every student on the roll.

Wooclap

  • Free Starter plan is capped at 5 questions per month
  • All paid subscriptions are billed annually with no monthly option
  • Cancellation must be submitted at least 48 hours before the renewal date

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Securly: Does Securly publish pricing?

Not on its own site. Tiered per-student rates for Filter appear in some US purchasing co-operative catalogues, falling as enrolment rises, but Aware, On-Call, Classroom, MDM and Pass are quoted.

Wooclap: What pricing options does Wooclap offer?

Wooclap provides separate pricing structures for education and business sectors. Education plans range from single classrooms to entire campuses, while business plans scale from small teams to large organizations. Enterprise customers can request custom pricing by contacting the sales team.

Securly: What is the difference between Aware and On-Call?

Aware is the automated detection that produces alerts. On-Call is the staffed service that reads the serious ones out of hours and phones your escalation contacts. Buying Aware alone leaves the triage with your own staff.

Wooclap: Is there a free trial available?

Yes, Wooclap offers a free sign-up option. The platform can be set up in minutes without requiring a credit card, allowing users to test the platform with over 20 question types before committing to a paid plan.

Source
Securly: Does it filter on home internet?

Yes, filtering follows the managed device rather than the network, which is the point for take-home Chromebook programmes.

Wooclap: What integrations does Wooclap support?

Wooclap integrates with popular tools including PowerPoint, Google Slides, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and major LMS platforms like Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, and Brightspace. Most popular integrations are available on standard plans, while some LMS integrations are reserved for custom plans.

Source
Securly: Is student data used for anything else?

Securly signs the US Student Privacy Pledge and district data processing agreements; check the specific DPA rather than the marketing page, since scanning scope and retention are negotiated terms.

Wooclap: How is user data handled and protected?

Wooclap maintains a dedicated Trust Center addressing security, privacy, and compliance. The platform also provides an accessibility statement and child-friendly privacy policy, demonstrating commitment to data protection across different user groups.

Source
Wooclap: What support resources are available?

Wooclap offers a Help Center with comprehensive documentation, a blog with learning science articles, webinar sessions covering product features and use cases, and direct contact options for sales and support inquiries.
