In the first week of the semester, the number of students using mobile devices like tablets instead of computers to access the Internet, went from 22% to 71% between 2010 and 2011 (ITS).

Software simulation tool (Firefly) and Mzinga Publisher are extra, i.e. there is an additional cost – it is not automatically included in the OmniSocial product.

Time – you will have to allocate quite a bit – more then a typical out of the box social learning platform or feature set within a LMS. Costs – be prepared to spend – you want to train people how to use it? Mark Morrell who has written about SharePoint 2010, reports that people find it too restrictive.
