Managing Partner Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very Good" October 11, 2019 4.0 Excellent. One has to use to understand Pros Very robust and extremely high features compared to nay others Cons Support has scope to improve. There should be atleast chat option and most definitely a phone option too. Review Source VH Valerian H. Owner E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Steep learning curve, but endless features " January 2, 2020 4.0 WPLMS is a great solution for selling our coffee courses as all you can eat membership, but also as individual courses. The design of the courses is very user-friendly and our customers love the professional look. The support is a mixed experience. Sometimes very helpful, sometimes just giving answers to gain some time. Pros \- Plenty of features - Work as an individual market place but also as a membership site - Modern e-learning environment and themes - Mobile app availability (sold separately) Cons \- claims it is responsive, but responsiveness breaks on certain pages - takes some time to learn it - more theme settings related to design would be welcome - the mobile app (not part of the WPLMS Theme, must purchase separately) is a mess. It does not work with Vimeo video service, has issues selling membership style e-learning pages, the support is horrible. Reason for choosing WPLMS More options, better deal, the website looks like a professional e-learning marketplace from the beginning - theme and plugins are done by one team. Switched from [LearnDash](https://www.capterra.com/p/130248/LearnDash/) At that time LearnDash did not support selling individual courses and memberships on one marketplace. WPLMS has many more options, looks like a better deal. Review Source GR Guno R. Manager Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Overall assessment " January 10, 2023 1.0 Scale 1-5 = 2 Pros WordPress itself and its possibility for an LMS. But is mishandled by developer Cons Coding and service response. Lack of mindset that when providing educational services online requires timely responses and fixes. Review Source MH Markus H. Research Assistant E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An all-inclusive package to get started with e-learning and more" May 31, 2019 5.0 From start to (unwanted but forced, see above) finish: no complaints. Quick and good support, detailed documentation including video guides, vast amount of design options and of course functionality. Pros I found out about WPLMS when I was working on my thesis in which I developed new methods to teach "Mathematics for Chemistry Students" at university level. One focus of my work was on developing some kind of online platform which gave students the opportunity to prepare/review the material before/after a lecture and also offer short exercises which the student could work on and get feedback on their results. With very little background in programming and web development, only some very basic skills in WordPress, I was very pleased with WPLMS as it met most of my requirements out of the box and by using some other plugins I got a first test page set up very quickly. With the help of the (excellent and quick responding) support of the developers I was also able to integrate one very important plugin (WPQuickLaTeX which offers basically full LaTeX support on my website) in the exercises and got the site ready for a test run with some students within 2-3 months. Unfortunately, for some technical and legal reasons (GDPR) I was not allowed to continue my work on this approach and had to switch to something provided by the university running on university servers, which resulted in me terminating the site. This had nothing to do with WPLMS though, and if it weren't for my general shortage of time I would have continued working on it as a private project. Cons The only things that were to some extent troublesome about working with WPLMS was the amount of options/settings one were offered. In some way this gives you great flexibility, e.g. integrating some social network features into your site sounds great, but it was very much to deal with especially at the beginning. However if you are not afraid to dive into these kind of things or have already some experience in this field this shouldn't be a problem. Review Source ME Matt E. Managing Member Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Quality LMS" January 26, 2023 5.0 Been using this platform since its inception, basically 14 years at this point. It has grown and expanded massively and is so much better now because they keep developing it. Pros Loads of features, easily turn on/off at the macro or micro level. Easily integrates into an existing site. Can be expanded with other plugins. Frequent updates and bug fixes. Great tech support. Cons Steep learning curve. Runs a bit slow at times. Review Source LC Laura C. Owner Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Promised Great Things but fell short " June 2, 2018 1.0 Pros There are fantastic options. Working with WPLMS helped me to narrow down what I want and don't want for my membership site. Cons 1) The theme requires way too many plugins that slow the site down. 2) they promise all kinds of functionality but then you are required to purchase licenses to all kinds of other plugins that they include in their theme 3) you will need a robust server and a hosting company that allows you to alter php 4) I have installed 47 plugins so far and the site still doesn't do what I need. Plus it's so slow that it's not functional. In the end, I need to find a different solution. The idea is good but the quality is just not there. Review Source Response from VibeThemes June 5, 2018 Thank you for the review. The review it seems is based on misinterpretation of information. 1. Too many plugins : WPLMS has 12 plugins out of which only 3 are required. Each plugin is for feature that you may want on your site. Which ensures that your site remains fast. For more fantastic features we assume that you're prepared to put more investment based on your user base. Also, more plugins does not mean it slows your site, anyone who claims this is misinformed about WordPress. Our plugins work at certain trigger points. 2. Not at all. The license for plugins by third party is optional. Only if you want to get exclusive support from them you need to buy the licenses. 3. We offer exceptional features, Course drives, video conferencing, white boards and yes more features require good host. 4. I understand, WPLMS is a versatile system, you can use it as you like. If not as LMS you can use it as Community centre, or Directory or just a website theme.Contact for support, we'll help you.

I create and sell my online courses on the portal. This is a great and easy tool for online schools with no monthly fees. Just bathed 1 time theme and use for life. Pros I like absolutely everything: user-friendly interface, fast download, operational technical support specialists. They developed for me a function that was not originally free, just at my request. Everything is top notch Cons I can't find what I don't like. All perfectly! Review Source AG Andrew G. Owner Media Production Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A great Wordpress LMS" February 26, 2020 4.0 The developers are really helpful, and came up with bespoke code to fix very specific issues I had. I did find getting everything working quite tough - but once it was up and running it worked well. Pros It has every feature you could ever need. Cons It can be hard to set things up. This was because there are a lot of different things in play to get this working - Wordpress, Buddypress, Woocommerce, Woocommerce Memberships, Woocommerce Subscriber - plus all the usual Wordpress plugins needed to make a site work. Review Source RG Raúl G. Director Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent" May 22, 2019 5.0 If you have a community or you are creating one a wplms it is the best option to have your events both in person and online. I use it with some other plugins it works perfect. Pros Buy several wp themes for online courses and this is without a doubt the most complete. Cons It has so many functions that it is far from simplicity. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Managing DIrector E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "best lms software " May 22, 2019 5.0 I have designed an award winning digital learning platform with WPLMS after testing several similar options and it is robust and stable for any online learning undertaking. Pros It has rich functionalities for managing e-learning Cons It can be slow loading while some elements are for more money Review Source RS Rajesh S. Board Member E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "WPLMS - Rise And Rise More" July 19, 2020 5.0 OVERALL EXPERIENCE : \*\*\*\*\* 5 Star 1. Usability: 5/5 2. Feature : 5/5 3. User interface : 4.8/5 4. Customer care: 5/5 5. Response to customer's feature request: 5/5 6. Developers' credibility: 5/5 7. Documentation: 4.9/5 8. Video Tutorials: 4.5/5 Pros Constant development is the essence of a good usable software. And it seems that the WPLMS Team knows it the best. Feature wise, I can say the LMS has everything that a modern education system should have. But the icing on the cake is the Developers' farsightedness to think beyond the competition and their constant effort to take it to the next level. It has recently did a major Framework change from v3.x to V4. And that enhanced its functionality, 3x. Cons In its default avatar it is more than enough for running a fantastic Learning Management System, but sometimes I wish if some premium Add-on feature could be provided as free or could come by default. :) Reason for choosing WPLMS I found it more feature rich and advanced than the competition.

So far has been really easy to set it up. I haven't been able to publish yet but the experience has been really good.

This proposal became my undergraduate project and later my university degree work. I got a grade of 10. My project was to give students the opportunity to share knowledge among themselves, exchanging points with each other to acquire new content. Pros What I liked the most is the professional way the system works. Many large local projects do not have the level of development of this system. Cons I have no criticism for the system, everything works more than perfectly. Review Source TY Terry Y.
