Since my Top 10 list of LMS vendors has been posted online, I have received quite a bit of e-mail wondering why the biggest names: Cornerstone On Demand, Saba, SumTotal and SuccessFactors are not on the list.

At that time, interest in training customers, channel partners and others “outside the firewall” was on the rise, but many organizations either could not or would not use their internal employee-focused LMS to support external learning programs.

Much of the investment was upfront and only the largest companies or companies with the most compliance risk exposure could afford an LMS.

Nor is it about the company itself, rather it is about the effect the system has on the entire LMS industry. We are getting a lot of customers who dislike Cornerstone.
