In an era where digital transformation is redefining how educational institutions function,
managing campus access, student engagement, and library operations needs to be more
intelligent, secure, and integrated. Indian colleges, universities, and schools are moving
toward smarter solutions and InOut Plus by PlayTech is leading the charge.
A product of deep experience and innovation in library automation in India, InOut Plus is
not just a gate management app it’s an all-in-one campus platform that integrates
seamlessly with the Koha ILS (Integrated Library System) and enhances security,
communication, and information flow.
What Is InOut Plus?
InOut Plus is a mobile-based gate management and communication system built for
educational institutions. It enables:
Contactless entry and exit tracking for students, staff, and visitors
Instant and scheduled notifications for communication
Seamless access to Koha Library System without exposing it to the internet
Real-time attendance and visitor analytics
Virtual communities and notice boards within departments
This intelligent platform is a result of PlayTech’s decade-long experience in deploying
Koha installations across India and providing end-to-end technical support for open-source
library solutions.
Why InOut Plus Is Perfect for Indian Libraries and Campuses
- Secure and Contactless Gate Management
Forget about outdated visitor registers or expensive RFID infrastructure. With InOut Plus,
institutions get a smart entry-exit system powered by mobile devices. Students simply scan
in using the app, and the data is securely stored for:
Daily attendance logs
Visitor analytics
Compliance and audit reports
Library usage trends
This is ideal for schools, colleges, and universities looking for cost-effective access control
without the need for physical ID scanning equipment. - Deep Koha ILS Integration – No Cloud Required
Most institutions using Koha — the world’s most trusted open-source library management
system — face a dilemma: how to give students access without opening the system to the
internet?
InOut Plus solves that. Students get instant updates on:
Book due dates
Fine reminders
Book renewal notifications
OPAC access
Real-time alerts from librarians
All this without needing static IPs, cloud hosting, or VPNs. It’s a game-changer for data
privacy and system security.
- All-in-One Campus Communication
Managing communication across departments and student groups is challenging. InOut Plus
allows:
Unlimited push notifications
Department or “Squad” creation
Polls, surveys, and feedback tools
Academic calendar and announcements
Targeted messaging (by group, class, or individual)
This creates a distraction-free alternative to WhatsApp or Telegram, where every
message is institutional, focused, and accountable. - Recognition Through the Virtual Achievement Board
Motivating students matters. The Virtual Achievement Board lets faculty or admins post:
Awards and recognitions
Project highlights
Placement news
Academic milestones
This builds a culture of visibility and celebration — right inside the app your students already
use. - Privacy-First Architecture
Unlike many third-party communication or tracking apps, InOut Plus prioritizes privacy.
There are no ads, no cross-app tracking, and all communication stays within your institution’s
ecosystem.
It’s built specifically for Indian educational environments, where data security, simplicity,
and affordability matter.
