## Reviews

### "Great tool for in-house trainings" — 5.0/5

> **Jesús Gonzalo** | *23 March 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It continues to be a good option to create in-house training, going further than expected, and compared with other platforms
> 
> **Cons**: There are no cons; this is a tool that keeps the required innovation and keeps it simple to use. I don´t think in a scenario to don´t use it
> 
> It has been great to implement it as part of my CoEs to help people to train and have some materials available

### "An e-learning facility to share your expertise" — 4.0/5

> **Mohamed** | *15 May 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A super easy LMS platform to use for online learning with a couple of user-friendly tools that will help make creating lessons, grading, assigning tasks and setting cohorts a simple journey.
> 
> **Cons**: Though it offers many ways and means to stage and pace lessons, Moodle is still away from Canvas Instructure. Students cannot trace their progress, nor can they bookmark their last task. It still causes many technical bugs for those who installed Moodle on their sites or domains, you might lose everything if you think to upgrade.
> 
> A super easy e-learning platform with all beginners would use to start their online business or career; its user-friendly dashboard does not need to be an expert in creating online lectures, setting students lists or cohorts, grading and even giving feedback.
