It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the abundance of learning management systems available online and through agencies like us. Off-the-shelf. Content management. Pay-per-seat. Just these terms alone are confusing.
To cut through all this we’ve created this blog to help you understand whether or not working with Plume is right for you.
But first, maybe you’re wondering why we’d even go to the trouble of telling you why you don’t need us? It’s simple. We’re an agency focused on long-term partnerships, scalability and future-proofing. What this means, in reality, is that, for some of you, a Plume system isn’t necessary and while you might be excited by the prospect of working with us, it might not actually be a decision that’s right for your business.
If you answer yes to any of the things in Section 1 then you definitely need an LMS.
BUT
If you answer yes to any of the things in Section 2 then you definitely need a custom system.
We’ve taken an overview from systems across the market; most systems will have these features, but some will also include features from Section 2.
At a glance most will have the following capabilities:
Our systems have all of the functionality above plus the ability to do more.
If you answered yes to any of the questions in Section 2 then, yes, you need a custom learning management system from Plume.
Why?
Because, most of the shelf solutions won’t be able to offer you everything you need, and the more functions you add, the bigger the price tag. You could easily spend £60,000 a year on a system when you could have had one custom built for half the price.
In a number of cases, custom features are always cheaper if you own your system, and when you own your system you can flexibly add and adjust features you need to, in order to suit your evolving business needs – without worrying about annual fees and contracts.
