Making an investment into a new LMS system typically comes with questions to find the right system. Here are a few of our most frequently asked questions:
What is a learning management system (LMS)?
Wikipedia defines a learning management system (LMS) as:
“A software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, and reporting of training programs, classroom and online events, e-learning programs, and training content.”
What this means is that the right learning management solution can help you better reach your goals. Whether you want to focus on continuing education, eLearning availability, synchronous or asynchronous learning, mobile learning, certification programs, or even eCommerce and more, learning management systems are designed to provide the features you need to make sure your unique learning goals are met and a positive ROI is achieved.
Is an LMS right for my organization?
If you have or are looking to build any form of training and knowledge sharing efforts within your organization, a learning management system is what you need to easily and affordably get a program where you need it to be.
TOPYX LMS is a valuable learning solution for companies, academic departments, associations, municipalities, and eCommerce needs of any size, anywhere in the world.
How much does an LMS cost?
Some LMS software is very expensive. Paying per user can increase your costs dramatically.
Fortunately, TOPYX LMS provides a complete, easy-to-use learning management solution with no users fees, no bandwidth fees, and free implementation for a low, flat annual subscription. Compare the total cost of ownership with LMS options before making a decision.
Check out our LMS pricing page for more info.
Explain the ‘no user fees’ of TOPYX LMS.
Whether you have 500 or five million users, TOPYX costs the same. There are no per user/seat/license fees at all.
This will allow TOPYX to grow with your expanding learning and training needs, without making your expenses grow. When paying per user, the total cost of ownership (including the time spent managing access) skyrockets. Do the math on the total cost of an LMS before deciding what learning management system to go with.
How long does TOPYX take to implement?
You can have your own TOPYX LMS instance up and running in just a few weeks. This depends on your response times and customization needs. We are in this together.
Remember, we do not charge any additional fees for implementation (unlike other LMS providers).
