Tovuti LMS

  • The bundled authoring saving only exists if you do not already own an authoring suite, and organisations that do are paying a premium for a capability their designers will not adopt.
  • The built in editor is convenient rather than equal to a dedicated authoring tool, so complex simulations and software training content still need an external product.
  • Reporting is serviceable for completion and certification and shallow for skills analytics, so data heavy learning teams add a separate analytics layer.
  • Permissions and hierarchy modelling are lighter than enterprise competitors, which shows up in organisations with many semi autonomous business units.
  • Support and professional services capacity is smaller than at the large vendors, so complex implementations depend more on the customer having a capable internal owner.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Tovuti LMS: Do we still need an authoring tool?

For most standard modules, no, the built in editor covers it. For software simulations and complex interactions you will still want a dedicated authoring product.

Tovuti LMS: How is it priced?

Quoted by learner volume and the modules taken, with an implementation fee. It is not published, so compare it against per active user competitors using your own population model.

Tovuti LMS: Is it suitable for external customer training?

Yes. It supports separately branded portals and ecommerce, which is why associations and training providers use it as often as internal learning and development teams.
