Head of E-learning Area E-Learning ### "Friendly and reliable e-learning platform" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 17, 2021 We use chamilo to offer our researchers and teachers a place to create their learning courses, collaborative areas and support materials for very different uses. Right now we have over 30000 users enrolled. Pros The best thing of Chamilo is its usability. The great majority of our users require little or no support in setting their online courses and start using them. Both teachers and students. It has all the basic options you could expect from a flexible e-learning platform, regarding communication tools, authoring, testing, statistics...of course there are other platforms with far more options in each of these tools, but in my experience most users don't use them anyway. Cons It would be desirable to count on more plugins to integrate external tools. Reasons for choosing Chamilo The three of them were born from original Claroline and we loved its philosophy, but relied in the team that is running Chamilo, which, besides, has local support in our country and region.
