NetDimensions Enterprise Knowledge Platform labelled 'bulletproof' by brandon-hall.com
The LMS KnowledgeBase, an in-depth review of 50 learning management systems just released by leading e-learning industry research and consulting firm brandon-hall.com, sums up NetDimensions Enterprise Knowledge Platform with one word: 'bulletproof'.
HONG KONG, SEPTEMBER 15, 2004 - "Bulletproof" is the verdict delivered on NetDimensions Enterprise Knowledge Platform (EKP) by brandon-hall.com, a leading research and consulting firm for the e-learning industry, in its latest review of 50 learning management systems (LMS). LMS software is used by corporations to organize, deliver and track on-line and other learning resources and activities.
"The first word that comes to mind when examining this system is 'bullet-proof'," cites the reviewer in the critique of EKP. The critique continues by emphasizing EKP's scalability, security, ease of implementation, and configurability.
Ray Ruff, NetDimensions' Chief Technical Officer and Chairman, was delighted to learn that EKP's system architecture and design philosophy was highlighted by the brandon-hall.com review as one of the system's most distinctive features. "When we designed EKP, our aim was to offer an open, modular architecture using Java/J2EE that would work with all the major operating systems, Web servers and databases. It is very satisfying for this achievement to be recognized by such a respected authority in this field as brandon-hall.com," he said.
In addition to the distinction accorded to the architecture of EKP, the critique also noted that EKP "excels" in handling content which it performs "efficiently and creatively" via a friendly browser-based interface and that the search and reporting capabilities were among "the best we've seen."
The LMS KnowledgeBase consists of in-depth profiles of 50 learning management systems, with custom comparison across over 200 features. This year's study represents 17,738 total LMS implementations (end-user companies that have implemented an LMS), with a collective grand total of 83.8 million registered e-learners.
