While it is debatable which is the best, we have listed out some of the essential features which you should look for before buying a learning management system.

It is very important to be able to manage, deliver and participate with simplicity and ease of use. The process of creating courses, programs or curricula should be transparent and done with a minimum number of clicks, but with the maximum of flexibility.

Additionally, the ability to customize email templates and provide flexibility to facilitators is also critical.
