Furlong Solutions is an established brand that provides comprehensive products and services for educational institutions. With a track record dating back to 1989, Furlong has been a trusted name in the education sector. The journey began when the founder, Howard Langley, created a DOS-based database to address data collection challenges at a school where his wife worked as a Deputy Head.

This initial labor of love eventually evolved into SchoolBase, a versatile Management Information System (MIS) that is now trusted by schools worldwide. Over the years, Furlong expanded its offerings and expertise. They developed EdTech software solutions, including their flagship product, SchoolBase, to streamline admissions and enhance school management.

Furlong also acquired Academic Business Solutions and introduced FeeMaster, a fee-billing software that seamlessly integrates with Sage200. Recognizing the need for a fully web-based system, Furlong launched SchoolBase online in 2013, marking a significant milestone in their evolution. In 2017, Furlong was acquired by Canadian Software group Volaris, enabling collaboration and knowledge-sharing with over 400 software companies globally.

Under the leadership of Managing Director David Ryan, Furlong continues to innovate and expand its offerings. In 2019, they launched Maestro, a web-based music department management software, the first of its kind in the market. Today, Furlong serves more than 250 schools worldwide, with a commitment to delivering solutions that enable excellence in education.

They prioritize building meaningful partnerships with schools, understanding their unique challenges, and providing impactful solutions. As part of their dedication to continuous improvement, Furlong offers free customer webinars and provides tools to support distance learning. With a focus on academic excellence, Furlong Solutions is dedicated to empowering educational institutions to thrive
