Moodle is now the most popular LMS in the world, with over 40 million users. The platform is Open Source, so there are no license fees - freeing you up to invest more in e-learning content delivery and professional services.

Many organizations are looking at how e-learning can support their longer term goals. Webanywhere, Europe’s largest Moodle Partner, looks at how adopting a rapid strategy using open source technology can allow this in the most cost- effective manner.

Moodle 2, the latest version of the most popular LMS in world (eLearning Guild 2011), has caused all kinds of waves in the market. This has mainly been leveraged by the few barriers to entry, with software that allows corporations to begin their e-learning journey with a tight budget. This year, we have already seen many examples of how organizations are using Moodle for management leadership, compliance training, product knowledge academies, communication portals and induction programs. Moodle 2, coupled with flash development tools such as Articulate, provide a firm foundation to deliver an e-learning project.
