Which LMS works best with Articulate storyline
Hi everone,
My company is looking for an eLearning solution for existing non system related courses (eg. employee induction,compliance etc) as well as role specific training for the new CRM software we have launched.
We want software simulations explaining different customer scenarios via eLearning.
I need some suggestions about which authoring tool and LMS will be the best.
Something easy and simple to use and implement for the start.
I have heard that Articulate Storyline is great.But not sure if its the right one and which LMS to buy with it.
I was looking for one which is not expensive, offers great reporting and course distribution options and is easy to use and install.Also the users we are liiking to cater are about 200-250.
Please give any suggestions you have and how to start.
Thanks
Amanda

Hi Amanda,
Capterra (http://www.capterra.com/learning-management-system-software) has comparative information on over 250 LMS vendors. I gave them my requirements and they put me in touch with 6 vendors they thought would fit my needs. Their site also has controls that allow you to filter solutions according to your needs, so you can do your own research. There's no charge, and not all the referrals were to companies that paid for sponsored links. We ended up choosing Inquisiq R3 (SaaS), and are using SCORM so that we have the flexibility to move to another vendor, if necessary.
Good luck,
Nick

As you've already wrote, it's very hard question, because everybody wants to spent his money as well as possible. In this case I can share you my best experiences with http://www.Training-Online.eu. I used in the university and now I use it in my own company to educate employees.
The greatest aspect of this E-learning platform is that you don’t have to pay any fixed monthly fees and there is no initial investments. That means you pay only for assignment to the course. Despite this the quality of the services is really high.
I’m sure that the thing you’ll appreciate the most is the security. – All data are here kept in full security and if you’re not an authorized user with access to the e-Learning Management System, you’ve no chance to go there.
I hope it’ll help you to make good decision. - JeanetteBrooksCommunity Member
Hey Amanda! Have you checked out Articulate Online? It's our hosted service which allows you to upload any Articulate-published content, and then track and report on your learners' progress and results. If you do all of your authoring with Articulate products, Articulate Online is a great choice because it's super easy to use and includes a lot of intuitive reports, plus the option to create custom reports. And it could handle your 250 users with no problem. You're welcome to download the free trial and give it a test run!

Hi all, I am developing training content using Articulate for global distribution but we are having significant buffering issues using Litmos which makes the content unusable. We are based in Australia and have been informed that due to our location this is a common issue. I wish our sales consultant had informed us earlier in the process! Our modules will be used in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Ireland.
I'm looking for recommendations for either a) a LMS with CDN hosting or b) an LMS that I can host on a cloud service. The LMS must be simple and easy to use with no significant modification and theming. Our deployment must happen at the end of Feb. We like Litmsos as it is very user friendly and is not complicated after all, we are just using it to deliver our modules and assessments. We also need groups or teams as each country/dept will have their own courses. Any help appreciated!- TuckCrockerCommunity Member
Alex --- we use Litmos as our global LMS and we are quite happy with it -- including 23 language support, although we are (im)patiently waiting for Arabic. The "Team" functions are quite good, and if you're organized, you can develop a very sophisticated model. Storyline 2 is quite compatible, and we use it for all of our course development. Right now we use Litmos to offer 40 courses to about 532 users around the world.

I'm considering Articulate Online myself.
I have Docebo currently but I've experienced a lot of issues and some Scorm version weren't supported.
- AlexKluewCommunity Member
Hey John, would you care to elaborate some more on shortcomings of Docebo please? Which issues that are making you re-evaluate?
We have looked at Articulate Online and while it seems pretty much what we need, it lacks one major requirement that puts a wall and that is localization. We need it to work in English and French.
To our surprise Docebo seems to do everything AO does and it has localization in different languages. So we are currently in communication with Docebo team to onboard and make Storyline work.
At this current stage, there isn't clear documentation on how to make Tin Can Api work with Docebo. Articulate Online really makes this seamless. Just wish localization was available.
Thanks,
Alex

I totally missed this reply, I'm sorry. Did you sign with Docebo in the end?
- KimMcCowanCommunity Member
Hi John,
Could you please direct message me with a bit more about your Docebo issues? My workplace is strongly considering Docebo.
Thanks,
Kim

Amanda,
I recently ran across (maybe even in the Articulate forums) a recently updated PDF (warning 130+ pages long) of just about every LMS vendor and their specialties. I'm not sure if it contains additional information over Capterra or not, but I've found it useful.

Hi everybody!
Tomas - thanks for that name. Do you know if there is support for other languages? I need my LMS to support swedish so my customers meet a page in Swedish when they login.
Today I use Tictac in Sweden but there is so much I´m not satisfied with. What I need is a system that allow a large amount of people, belonging to different companys, to login with a password, do one or more courses, get a diploma and then I want to take out statistics for each company. Someone that use Storyline for something like that?- AniruddhaSatheCommunity Member

Thanks for your answer Aniruddha. Can you please give me a link where I can read more about your LMS before we talk about it?
- AnnaBarsk-HolmbCommunity Member
Tomas - some more questions; does the system allow that you do courses on ipads or iphones? Samsung? How do you pay for it? Is it for each person that you put in the system or is it when someone actually doing a course?
