LMS Evaluation with Test Installation

Test Installation - Foundation for your evidence-based Decision

Evaluating a Learning Management System (LMS) is a complex process that entails consequences. It is a fact that a demo version is not quite informative enough.

Thus we offer you to test TCmanager^® LMS independently by using your own data in your own system environment.

We recommend a Testing Period for your future LMS

A test installation proves to be superior to a demo version when making an informed decision regarding a specific Learning Management System (LMS).

Real Environment: A test installation allows you to work with the LMS in a real environment. This provides you with the opportunity to evaluate the user interface, functionality, and user-friendliness firsthand. With a configuration that suits your needs from the outset, you ensure that the system aligns with your individual requirements.
Integration: Examine the integration of the LMS into your existing IT infrastructure. Seamless integration is crucial for efficiently managing data and workflows. Identify and resolve any compatibility issues early on.
Performance: Evaluate the LMS's performance through testing in a real training situation. Assess its ability to handle high-frequency usage, the functionality of processes and administration, as well as user interaction.
Feedback: With a test installation, you can gather feedback from training administrators, instructors, and learners. Their evaluation is invaluable for ensuring that the chosen LMS meets the needs of all stakeholders.

Our Recommendation

In contrast to a demo version, a test installation of an LMS enables you to make a fact-based decision rather than merely gaining a superficial impression.
The testing phase allows you to select the best resources to suit your training objectives, ensuring that your LMS decision is a long-term success.

⇒ Therefore, implementing an LMS should always begin with a test installation rather than experimenting with a superficial demo version. Ensure confidence when making this crucial decision.
