Introduction

Product Overview

Workflow diagram illustrating ClassSync syncing school roster to Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom

ClassSync standardizes each user’s sign-in ID under OneID so that each user can sign in to and use Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace with the same login ID, supported by roster management capabilities. It also provides class assignment and course enrollment roster management features required to set up classroom environments (Microsoft Teams, Google Classroom).

By managing rosters under one standard, ClassSync helps standardize operational rules and reduces repetitive registration and update tasks across platforms. This is particularly effective during high-volume periods such as the start of a term, easing administrative workload, shortening processing time, and improving data consistency.

Rosters and related data are managed on the administrator’s local device (Local DB) using a local processing and storage approach. ClassSync does not store or transmit roster data to the developer’s servers. This reduces privacy exposure risk and enables direct data control, strengthening security and privacy.

Key Features

Manage teachers, students, and classes with a unified roster across Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom.

1 Unified Roster

Stores and manages the school roster—including teacher rosters, student rosters, and class information—on the administrator’s local device.
Keeps the roster up to date in one place, providing a single source of truth for school data management.

2 Teams & Classroom Auto Sync

Based on the unified roster stored on the local device, automatically creates and synchronizes cloud accounts, groups, and classes in Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom.
Reduces manual registration and updates, improving operational efficiency and minimizing administrative workload.

3 Privacy-First Local Storage

User data is stored on the administrator’s local device rather than on external servers, strengthening privacy protection.

4 Microsoft SDS CSV v2.1 Support

Supports SDS-standard CSV files to ensure compatibility with the Microsoft education ecosystem.
Provides Google Classroom class creation and management capabilities based on SDS CSV v2.1–formatted data.

5 SAML SSO Provisioning

Supports building a single sign-on (SSO) environment using Microsoft or Google as the Identity Provider (IdP).
Supports creating and synchronizing (provisioning) the accounts and user attributes required for SSO.

6 Secure Teacher Transfer

When teachers move to a new school, they can directly and easily transfer materials from an existing account to a new account.
All processes are performed on the teacher’s local device without passing through external servers, enabling secure use without concerns about personal data leakage.
Built for Google Workspace & Microsoft 365

Differentiators

  • Unified roster management across Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom 
  • Enhanced privacy with local-device data storage 
  • Distributed via Microsoft Store for simplified and trusted installation 
  • Built for IT administrators and teachers for efficient operations

Security & Privacy

  • Roster/user data is stored on the administrator’s local device rather than on external servers, strengthening privacy protection. 
  • Designed to support GDPR and applicable privacy requirements.

Use Cases

  • IT administrators or teachers who require secure, local control of roster data: All roster information is stored and managed exclusively on the device where the app is installed—it’s never sent to external servers—ensuring maximum privacy and compliance with data protection policies.
  • Schools and educational institutions using both Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom: Perfect for managing hybrid digital learning environments across multiple platforms with consistency and ease. In particular, by utilizing the Microsoft School Data Sync (SDS) standard CSV format (v2.1), synchronization with Google Classroom is possible, enabling consistent data management across platforms.
  • IT administrators managing large volumes of user accounts and class groups: You can streamline the setup and maintenance of student accounts, teacher accounts, and class groups in schools with a large student population using powerful, scalable tools.
  • Teachers who need secure and efficient roster management: Simplify class roster organization and maintain accurate user data across integrated platforms
