Windows 10: Microsoft Education vs. Windows 10 Professional/Enterprise

Good afternoon,I am researching software that requires Microsoft Windows 10 [Professional, Enterprise] version 1703, or higher but the laptops we are using have Windows 10 Education Version 1909 10.0.18363.1916, Version 20H210.0.19042.1348 and Version 20H2 10.0.19042.1288. I am trying to confirm the differences in the OS and if they are basically the same at their core. The software vendor is stating that Windows 10 Education is not supported and therefore the software won't be supported should any problems arise. Thank you in advance!

:)
