About JoomlaLMS

JoomLMS is a learning management system designed for use with course sales platforms, business training programs, eLearning websites, and more. The system includes a course authoring tool, multi-language user interface, chat functionality, learner performance tracking and reports, multiple monetization options, and more.

JoomLMS offers a fully integrated course builder, which allows users to create multiple courses following learning path-based, webinar-based, or material-based patterns. Courses can be categorized and displayed in different layouts, with grid and list views available. Users can configure course availability periods, completion criteria, prerequisites, maximum attendance numbers, waiting lists, and fee types for each course. Files in multiple formats can be uploaded, including audio, video, rich text, HTML, PDF, and Zip files. Complete learning paths can be built, with links, documents, content pages, quizzes, and SCORM packages. Users can also create custom quizzes, surveys, and assessments, with 14 different question types, local and global question pools, and custom feedback for individual questions or entire quizzes.

JoomLMS includes a range of communications tools to enable users to interact with learners within the platform. Course announcements can be made to display a message to all learners on a course, and course chat allows one-to-one messaging, with the ability to attach files to messages. Integration with GoToMeeting provides users with access to live audio and video conferencing capabilities. JoomlaLMS also offers a range of reporting options for tracking learner progress, course completions, materials access, and more. Users can configure custom grading scales for assessments, change learning path completion statuses, and export data in multiple formats including CSV, TXT, XLS, and PDF.

    Atomized Learning for the Businesses

    Reviewed on 2019/04/08

    Pros

    Continuous Learning is essential for any individual as well as for the organization. JoomlaLMS was chosen to house our learning online classes and materials for all employees. Training costs have been reduced, and now we have a centralized portal for learning. Archived classes are easily accessible, and new courses can easily be created and shared as well.

    Another use case was to use JoomlaLMS for onboarding training for new hires. Since after setup of the modules for the first batch (and some minor updates along the next few batches), everything is already set up and available within JoomlaLMS and we just had to add the new hire and let them access it from anywhere (mobile, laptop, workstation, etc). This made Training and Development more manageable and easier to track for an HRM perspective.

    Cons

    I have no reason not to like it. The cost is reasonable and our industry continues to promote learning especially online learning be it a full-blown course work or even atomized mini-lessons for a cumulative certificate collection.

    Impressive Platform to Create and Manage Online Courses

    JoomlaLMS is ideal for people seeking to train others on a certain field. It has a simple layout that is unlikely to confuse learners. Instructors can use different tools including assignments, videos, and quizzes to help learners grasp various concepts. However, it requires learning to make good use of it and benefit from all the features.

    Pros

    I came across JoomlaLMS when a client requested us to create a platform where their target readers/ students could access the course in phases. Although I involved another expert in the project, it was relatively easy to learn about it and set it up. JoomlaLMS provides the necessary tools for instructor or website owner to create an online course for learners. It allows teachers to create effective content using images, videos, tests, and assignments. It has a simple layout and generates detailed reports to help instructors to assess the learners.

    Cons

    Setting up JoomlaLMS and structuring an online course requires some technical skill. Without relevant skills or experience, you need time to understand how it works. However, you can always find relevant and helpful content online to help you set up.

    A good first website learning opportunity

    Reviewed on 2019/01/02

    Pros

    After learning it, it did seem somewhat easy to navigate. I was able to learn the basics to get a website up and running in just one day.

    Cons

    It is difficult to show someone else how to maintain the website, as so many features are organized in strange fashions. Also, you have to click many times just to get to one item, and often has very clunky ways to finish up a project. Also, after a while, many links were irreparably broken. I also got multiple emails from Joomla - sometimes every few minutes. That seemed to be a flaw

    Although I used its use with different options before, I am using it only for online education for now.

    Pros

    JoomlaLMS is an open source platform and I can customize these codes and modify them according to my own customization needs. JoomlaLMS has an easy and accessible interface for users and is easy to use. JoomlaLMS is a scalable and flexible platform to suit the needs of small and large educational institutions. it was of great interest to me. JoomlaLMS has powerful reporting features, which makes it a lot easier for me. JoomlaLMS offers different training options and helps instructors create online classes, study groups, and course materials.

    Cons

    Because JoomlaLMS is a Joomla application, the configuration and installation process is difficult and not ideal for those with a technical background. Sometimes, JoomlaLMS can cause performance issues, which can cause problems to arise, especially in large educational institutions or classrooms with a lot of students. Why does it have open source code? It has both good and bad sides. And it doesn't offer support options. At the same time, it doesn't have some features that some educational institutions or trainers might need.

    Power Packed Learning Management Software

    Reviewed on 2016/03/28

    More and more people are turning to more economical solutions like online training and the younger generations are accustomed to using their computers, technology and the internet for educational purposes. I was fortunate to have connected with someone who was a specialist in the field of online training. He had implemented many Joomla Learning Management software installations and was already consulting with many other large educational institutions and corporate clients in the Western US. He was very open about his experiences, he didn't want to tell me which platform I should go with, he shared all the possible options with me. However, when I pressed him for a recommendation, based on his experiences he highly recommended JoomlaLMS. Normally I prefer to farm out work like this to someone who is an expert. In this case however, I decided that I wanted to understand the capabilities and the limitations of the software. Quite honestly, the majority of the workload is related to the creation of the actual e-learning modules and materials not the JoomlaLMS software. JoomlaLMS is merely the engine that drives the online programs once they are created. There is an abundance of user friendly tutorial videos on Joomla LMS You Tube Channel and the JoomlaLMS website has a help section for users as well. In cases where a glitch has been encountered or I've been unable to find a quick answer, the support staff have been helpful and accommodating. The first week the site went live we landed our first client and our online training business became international! The Sales Advantage is no longer 100% dependent on work schedules and we are no longer restricted by geography. Online learning has added a new dimension to the business, another revenue stream and option that we can offer clients for their training needs. At first glance, for a smaller business, there can be some sticker shock when considering at the annual subscription fee. I took a risk based on the recommendation from someone that I trusted. As I have come to fully understand what I have purchased, I am blown away by how robust and feature rich Joomla LMS is. So many companies offer outrageous service support contracts for the most basic needs. With more complex installations I can imagine that this is necessary. In my case there has been the odd need for support and the JoomlaLMS support staff have answered my questions in a timely fashion, supported the product and I have not incurred additional costs.
