Alternative LMS for TalentLMS migration?

Seeking Advice
1

Hi,

in order to better understand my question I feel that I will need to explain my current setup:

I am running an e-learning business. Basically we are selling e-learning platforms for companies in the medical sector. The companies and their employees have access to their “own”-branded portal with different courses available inside the portal. That means our customers have their own portal with 2 different types of users:

    • normal user: Normal users can basically only finish courses and get their certificate for this
    • admin user: the can controll the progress of the normal ones and download as well all certificates. see only users of their tenant.

We use TalentLMS under the hood for this, as it fulfills most of our requirements.

We are already developing a lot of functionality by our self but we can’t change the general setup of TalentLMS or include completely new features taht are requested by our own customers.

But as we are growing and so our requirements I am looking or a good alternative that would enable us to better customize it, e.g. developing our own features etc…,

I know that the company behind TalentLMS does as well offer a another LMS called efront: eFront Pricing Plans - Get Your eFront Quote

It looks like it is more targeted for enterprises and it gives you the option to customize it.

So here are my questions:

  • Did anyone here already migrated from TalentLMS to efront. I am assuming, as they are from one company that we could easily migrate all users and their data more easily than migrating to a completely new LMS?
  • Do you know any other LMS (SaaS or self hosted) that are suitable for our use case? The should be in general modern and should provide the option for an app.

Looking forward to hear some recommendations :slight_smile:

I know there’s a plugin in eFront which allows you to migrate your talent LMS data. I’ve personally not completed this process myself, so I can’t speak on how easy it is to complete.

I’ve developed a few small mods in eFront in the past. I must warn you the platform is very dated and not the most user friendly. UX could be considered a downgrade from talentLMS.

What kind of features or extensions are you looking to implement in a LMS?

I also run my own e-learning business, but it turns out that I am much better at the building product side than I am at sales/marketing. What I’ve had built could certainly support this with some changes.

Its a product that allows anyone to spin up a custom branded exam prep website (both an admin and student site) and sell subscription based access to it. Among some other modifications as needed, we could make it so that the org owner (company) is charged based on number of users rather than charging the end user (student/employee).

I’m wondering if you’d be interested in a chatting about a partnership of some kind?
