Is an open-source LMS platform worth it after all?
The drawbacks of an open-source LMS
Open-source LMSs are a great option. If you have developer skills. And the time to dedicate to building a training platform from the ground up. Otherwise, you’ll have to employ a web designer, or take specialist courses, not to mention getting your IT team to deploy the platform to your own servers. All of which cost time and money. Overheads you can do without.
