2. Open-Source LMS vs Closed Source LMS

Open-source learning management systems offer flexibility in terms of maintaining, developing, customising and integrating new tools. On the other hand, closed-source LMS is a company or vendor-reliant software that offers support and updates as part of the subscription fees.

3. Free LMS vs Commercial LMS

Free LMS are open-source tools, which include basic features that institutes such as content creation, course management, etc. Commercial LMS platforms are subscription-based and the costs depend on the number of users and features that institutes would like to include. Also, commercial LMS provides advanced analytics and reporting tools, gamification features, etc.

4. SaaS LMS/Cloud-Based LMS vs Hosted LMS

SaaS or Software as a Service is a cloud-based LMS platform that a vendor or ERP Company facilitates to an organisation. It involves a subscription-based model, wherein the institutes pay a monthly or yearly fee for the features. On the other hand, hosted LMS is handled by an institute’s IT expert or team, who installs the solution on the institute’s own server. The latter offers more control and freedom on data and customisation; however, it requires upfront capital investment in IT infrastructure and ongoing maintenance.

5. Corporate LMS vs Academic LMS

Corporate LMS caters to training and upskilling individuals in the corporate sector and it focuses on employee training, performance management, skill gap analysis, etc. In contrast, academic LMS has been specifically designed for educational institutes and they focus on creating, managing and delivering quality content and course materials.
