Which LMS do you use and why?
Hey all,
Just a quick question to you....what LMS do you use and why?
I use Moodle 2.1.2 currently. Why? It seemed like a good idea at the time! Now I'm frustrated with the SCORM reporting and interface.
Any thoughts?

We have been using Moodle 1.9 since 2009. However, I'm in the process of moving to Moodle 2.2. Yes, there have been some hiccups.
Originally we went with the hosted company because another agency had used them. But over the last 2 years the service has been pretty poor. Our contract is up for renewal, I've been looking around some. ~a
- You can also thing about changing the LMS..., you can test the excellent LMS ILIAS here: http://demo.ilias.de/ - if you need more information about hosting companies, just contact me. Yours, HJ Lauener

Hi Parul,I took a look at what you are pushing and found Knowledge Presenter to be a bit primitive IMHO. I also see it as competition to Articulate...perhaps I am wrong.

Knowledge Presenter is not direct competition. KP tends to attract more of the 'developers' who understand a little more about HTMLS. I think Articulate is great as a tool and ready to go and you can do great eleanring. I n fact when the need arises we do use Articulate to develop with too - I think it is good to have a variety of tools - 'fit for purpose.I am encouraging people to look at KP 'S Learner Management System - which has been tested by some very large corporate organisations and they speak very well of it . For most it is an integral part of their eleanring and is linked directly to their HR system.through Active Directory . Happy to send you our prestigious clients list if you like an contact names for reference - please PM me.
It also works very well with SCORM compliant thud party course - in fact there is a white paper through Knowledge Presenters University , and KPLMS has e-commerce.
Why not downaload the LMS and let me know you think?

- I'm not looking to get into a big discussion about this, just was voicing my opinion. I still feel that you're pushing KP...something I have no need for. As far as I am concerned, KP is definitely in direct competition and I'll tell you why. Bother companies have an end in mind and that is teaching. If I was led towards KP without knowing about Articulate, I'd go down the halls that others have gone down...yes, even your prestigious list of clients. However, I'd love to see what the results would have been for your prestigious list of clients if they were led down the hall to Articulate. Thanks for your time and posts.

KP's LMS is a product in its own right . I would only like to mention KPLMS as another option on the market and a product that us and our clients. have been very pleased with . In fact we have clients who use Articulate with KPLMS. So a perfect match I think. '.

Thanks everyone for the great info!
Has anyone heard or worked with PinPoint Global LMS?
Thanks

I use Accord LMS. This is an incredibly powerful and flexible learning management system. The best part - this is relatively inexpensive for the power and feature set it delivers. It's also pretty straight-forward to set up.
It's based on a DotNetNuke platform which is a free,open-source content management system. It's fully SCORM compliant and allows us to host any kind of content I choose. The report features allow me to track hundreds of different aspects of client data. And because it's based on DNN, user access can be tightly controlled so that I can have multiple clients with their users securely accessing only their content. I currently have about 20,000 concurrent users across about 3 dozen client companies.
Another nice aspect of this LMS is you can easily integrate it with an eCommerce module if you want to sell your learning content. There is also a nice Forum module which I use closely with the elearning content. And you can generate Certificates of Completion pretty easily as users complete learning events.
