The short version
- Only 360Learning has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.

- They diverge on capability: 360Learning covers Collaborative authoring, Sana covers Sana Agents.
- Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
360Learning
- The published Team plan at $8 per user per month covers up to 100 users; beyond that pricing is custom
- Business and Enterprise pricing is not published
- Priority SLA, dedicated technical support and premium onboarding are Enterprise only
- Business and Enterprise plans are typically annual contracts rather than monthly
Sana
- Workday completed its acquisition on 4 November 2025, so Sana is now an HCM vendor's capability; if you do not run Workday, the roadmap will be shaped around a platform you do not use and standalone availability is not guaranteed long term.
- Answer quality depends entirely on the state of your internal content, so an organisation with contradictory or outdated documents gets a confident assistant citing the wrong version, which is worse than not having one.
- Permission-aware retrieval across many source systems is difficult to get exactly right, and a misconfigured connector can surface content to employees who should not see it, which makes the security review substantial.
- Compliance-heavy training needs, such as certification tracking, regulator-mandated evidence and SCORM-based external content, are handled less thoroughly than in traditional learning management systems built for that purpose.
- Pricing is unpublished and now negotiated in the context of a Workday relationship, which reduces a non-Workday buyer's leverage and makes a like-for-like comparison against a standalone LMS difficult.
