Price
If you already have a commercial grade LMS the chances are you think you’re paying too much. We agree. Totara is open source and there are NO per user licence fees. Totara offers the key features and robustness you expect from an enterprise LMS, and some further innovations besides.Totara is up to 80% more cost-effective than other LMSs because we have extended the open source Moodle platform to be specifically aligned to the needs of talent management and workplace learning.
Quick, efficient implementation
