Recently we were requested to bid on a new learning management website since we’ve had a lots of experience with these kind of sites and ecommerce website. The client was expecting to do this in Drupal since they experienced familiarity with that CMS system. Our primary team concentrates on Joomla! however we brought on a couple brand new folks that did a lot together with Drupal so I started out looking around and reviewing the specs and also comparing features etc. and slogging through the discussion boards. We have been dealing with several LMS techniques for Joomla cms! for several years now so I merely took as a given that there were equivalents available for Drupal however I was greatly mistaken.

It really is blatantly apparent to me given that one of the areas exactly where Joomla! Content management systems really “Shines” in comparison to Drupal or Wp is with understanding communities, since there are no legitimate comprehensive LMS options out there regarding Drupal like there are for Joomla cms! CMS.

We now have had great luck along with three crucial LMS components regarding Joomla! CMS:Joomla LMS is in no way the most thorough with the most comprehensive feature set but Joomlearn Silver Edition and Connect LMS have their own merits for straightforward sites. Joomlearn presents ecommerce however is not SCORM Certified where Connect LMS is SCORM Compliant but won’t have ecommerce. Joomla ! LMS offers equally ecommerce and also SCORM compliance in addition to learning routes and a lot much better student monitoring. In addition Joomla cms LMS offers a net conferencing solution for virtual classroom sessions.Joomla! Content management systems with Joomla LMS components appears tall.

We all did a few comparisons several months back between learning administration systems in the market place and found that a Joomla! CMS having a Joomla LMS set up was extremely competitive using the even some of the larger and much more popular LMS’s however when you combined this particular with the adaptability of the Joomla! CMS platform and the social media and local community building resources in extensions like JomSocial there really is no other system that offers features as well as flexibility actually close.

Joomla CMS! CMS is currently commanding 2.6 % of all web sites built web has the greatest global advancement community helping the project. At CNP Integrations we’re adding value with vast expertise installing this program but also inside curriculum style, interactive content material development as well as technical support. It’s exciting to become on the right train with all the right people and to have got solutions in which cost not nearly as expensive any from another location competitive alternatives. Of course Drupal just like Joomla! Content management systems is open source and you can custom made code whatever you wish. Obviously though the next LMS RFP I see  that asks for Drupal… well I wish all of them luck. Joomla cms! CMS with the right LMS extension (Especially Joomla cms LMS) is a long way ahead and will give you a  much better value.
