Every LMS vendor now leads with AI, but only some of its features save hours. This guide runs six AI feature classes through two tests (real or relabeled, and whose hours), then hands you a stopwatch test and a demo script.
LMS administration is a calendar, not a job title. Here are the weekly, monthly and quarterly tasks with a yes-or-no test for each, the line between your work and IT’s, and a rule for when the work needs one named person.
A copyable LMS comparison matrix with weights you set yourself, dealbreaker rows and a 1-to-5 scale you fill in while the vendor is still on screen. The worked example scores three vendors to the last point, then shows how moving 10 weight points flips the result.
A finished module isn’t proof someone can run the line. Thirteen platforms, sorted by whether they record a supervisor’s sign-off, work on a shared terminal or with no signal, speak your workforce’s languages, and publish a price you can budget from.
The best compliance LMS shows an auditor who had to complete what, by when, on which version, and when it renews. Fourteen platforms, grouped by the evidence they produce, with renewal rules, content and published prices.
Almost every guide in this category rates mobile as a single yes-or-no column. It’s four different products, and only four of these platforms say what happens to a completion record when the phone comes back online.
The license is the cheap part of retail training. Five paid minutes a day across four hundred associates costs about $186,800 a year in wages against roughly $24,000 for the software, and the counting rule in the contract decides more of your bill than the choice of product does. Here is what fourteen platforms actually cost, what each one counts, and which shape of retail operation each one fits.
Every enterprise LMS lists single sign-on. Few publish how a leaver’s account is removed, what record they keep for an auditor, or whether your seat count can fall after a restructure. Thirteen platforms, answered on all four.
Onboarding is the one training job where every learner logs in once and never comes back, and most platforms are priced for people who come back. This guide compares 13 onboarding platforms on what they count as a user, the smallest company each will sell to, and what a year of new hires costs on each billing model.
