I recommend one thing. When we build software, we need a proper manual of that software, a proper user manual. Whenever I build the software, then I create a technical recommendation. I create a user recommendation. That is my actual user manual. But I see there is no proper user manual. User manual means you must not mention their step-by-step procedures. Not the individual procedures. You must have to mention what the difficulty is. I think they have tried to complete all the LMS systems by using fewer features but tried to complete the entire LMS, not mask features, but features that are actually important. Considering the overall global situation and having checked many more LMS systems. I think I can give it six out of ten. Something is better than nothing. So, I appreciate their efforts, and day by day, we improve, so they will also improve.
This solution requires some fancy footwork and maneuvering. If you want to use their built-in curriculum builder, you really need to have at least some understanding of HTML to tailor it to what you want it to be. Otherwise, you run into some rather serious formatting issues with spacing and kerning. I would prefer to work with Moodle. I don't know what Moodle's backend looks like, but I suspect that the organization invested some monies into the look of the UI because it is a seamless transition from a company's website to Moodle. That is not the case with my experience with TalentLMS. TalentLMS is out-of-the-box usage. There's no dev to make it more aligned with our brand and brand identity, other than the little bits I've done myself. From a user perspective, this solution is very easy to use, so I would rate it as a six or seven. From an administrative perspective, it's more like a three or four due to the reporting limitations and challenges with the builder. If I were giving a rating for an economical learning management tool and we were only looking at tools of a certain value, then I would say it's a seven or eight. If I'm looking at the solution in conjunction with Cornerstone On-Demand, Sum Total, Knowledge Planet, Mozilla, and some of the other larger scale learning management tools, this solution is on the lower end of the spectrum and would rate around a three or four. To give it an average rating taking all of that into consideration, I would rate it a five. My advice to people considering this solution is to be very, very clear on what their specs are. The program predated me, and the people who worked at my company and did the research into Talent didn't really know what they were looking for. The biggest challenge of TalentLMS is that if you use their builder and go through the effort of building courses in their programming along with your text and information, the only thing you're going to be able to pull out are images or media. You can't pull your courses out because there's no way to export them. That's a huge problem. It's kind of how they protect themselves, and I understand that, but if you're dealing with people who are not instructional designers and do not have experience with using eLearning tools to create SCORM files, that's a huge handicap. My recommendation would be to make sure that you test everything, and be absolutely certain about what you are looking for. If anything were to happen, or you were to want to move to another platform, you wouldn't be able to migrate any of your courses. You would need to recreate them all.
