Lt does exactly what it sets out to do and does so without very much prior knowledge of e-learning tools. The interactive content which comes with it is very versatile for physiology and medical education and can be customised to suit all levels of higher education. It allows us to provide formative and summative feedback as well as giving out students a versatile and familiar environment to undertake their practical classes and assessments.

This is a new tool... therefore there are always things can be improved. However the customer support team and excellent and the development team genuinely interested in making this the best software solution to all educators. Therefore if something is missing, just ask for it and if it's a sensible function it will more than likely eventually appear in the engine. I just wish this was around earlier!

Lt is an incredibly powerful and flexible platform that can be used for a huge array of synchronous and asynchronous learning activities. We love the simple authoring interface and students especially love using this in their undergraduate pharmacology laboratories. Lt is super reliable. We have never had any instances of server outages or other interruptions.

Drawbacks:

There isn't a lot that this can't do but enabling remote collaboration in a lesson would be a great feature.

My personal experience has been very positive. We teach large cohorts of student and not only does Lt help facilitate the logistics of delivering high quality laboratory classes en masse, it makes it enjoyable and rewarding for staff and students.

The inclusion of real patients. The interactivity for students. The use of editing mixing original lecturers with Lt bank of courses. It allows lecturer total freedom to design and deliver high quality lecturers and practical sessions using Powerlab. The final delivery is only limited by the lecturers imagination

Initially a learning curve with the editing but compared to LabTutor it is a whole new experience. I find Lt addictive and always wanting to try new ideas. Thank you

I have tried this platform and I think it is very complete, since it allows you to educate other people individually and train both employees and clients, very good

Despite being very good, its interface is not competitive with other platforms, they have to develop a better interface because this platform has potential

Summary:

Benefits:

The product is easy to implement - it is fairly intuitive for the learner and easy to brand and upkeep as an administrator.

Drawbacks:

The moodle base means you have to be careful about retakes - it only records the first one - so if you need certifications updating then plan ahead

Summary:

Really happy with the supplier support and the way the software keeps evolving

It is hosted off-site so we don't need to rely on our small Systems team. This is really the true value to me as an LMS administrator as previously it was impossible to upgrade our Moodle versions. Navigating to the courses is very simple. The look and feel is decent. So far it's been pretty stable.

Drawbacks:

I would like to see more features that are not already available in the free Moodle LMS system. I would like to see the Reporting features better implemented. I would also like to see support for plug-ins that are currently supported in free Moodle, particularly H5P.

Summary:

Benefits:

The flexibility that an admin has in configuring this software.

Drawbacks:

Inconsistency in different reports. e.g. SCORM reports are filtered differently where as other USer reports are filtered differently.

We have been using Totara Learn for past 2 years (almost). We love it even more because of the exceptional customer support by our vendor Kineo. Since we moved from Learnforce LMS, which had a completely different interface, some ulearners find it difficult but LMS admins love the flexibility now they have to configure even things like custom fields etc.
