Looking for a New LMS for Articulate

Howdy!

I work for a small (~25 employee) non-profit organization that trains around 600-700 active students at a time.  We currently run Taleo (from Oracle), but are considering moving to a new LMS with better pricing options and customer service.

I have gone and done some preliminary research on many of the LMS available, but honestly, I'm in over my head!  This is the first time I'm having to deal with the back-end of an LMS, and I'm new to instructional design as well.  Add to this the pervasiveness of old information (so much stuff is still out there from pre-2012), and you can easily see my dilemma.

I've looked at Moodle and Edmondo a little more in-depth, and I don't think they're quite what we need.  As a small company, we'll need something that will be easy to transition over to, provide hosting, track our students' progress, and allow us to customize or "brand" the client-side.

Also, several sites have suggested they would provide a quote if asked, but I was wondering if you guys had any knowledge on a ballpark cost? 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Frank,

Did you find the LMS that suits your needs?

You know, the best LMS for you will be the one that is closely aligned with your requirements and it will help you to meet your goals for your training program. 

Here are some guidelines that will help you to make the right choice: 7 Tips to choose the best LMS for your organization. 

Based on your requirements (Scalable solution, Reporting and Tracking Features, Customizable Interface, Administrative capabilities), I would suggest considering SkillBuilder LMS. You only pay for the number of users that you need. You can also assign administrative role to as many users as you want. This way, it will be easy enough to pass along to another person in the event of your absence.

Hello Russell,

I recommend Beetsol LMS. This is a fully featured SCORM compliant LMS that provides the infrastructure for enterprise training and management needs. It is the best LMS which easily allows you to build courses, import SCORM content, deploy online learning, manage users, communicate with users, track training results, and more.

It allows you to upload Articulate content very easily. Simply publish the content as Scorm 1.2 or 2004 and upload the zip file into a course on Beetsol - that's it! The best part is its ease of use, scalability, reliable, Gamification, Multi-Tenant, Social learning, Social Wall, Chats, Custom Reports. Also supports integrations like SalesForce, Webex, eCommerce among others. Hope this helps.

Thanks!
John.
