On top of that, they also offer SCIM integration to synchronize data between different applications. Asynchronous learning. Instant Messaging. Social network, finance, and accounting features. That bit is good, but on the flip side, we think the scope of the library is limited and could be improved.

eLearning 24-7

Combination of synchronous and asynchronous features. Most systems in the education space are still strongly focused on synchronous based learning. Thankfully there are systems that are starting to offer asynchronous as well (referring to systems that are not universal, rather education market only). Instant messaging.
