Web conferencing vendors can establish themselves to expand beyond the meeting standard. Feature set is rich – think of the possibilities, even with a learning management or learning portal system. Tired of having to type to post comments in social learning solutions, what about on discussion boards or forums?

If you were a vendor you made a pit stop to a hidden section, before continuing on. Vendor Section. Learning Portal 16%. M-Learning Tool – 9%.

On 11-18-2010, I was part of an online panel discussing whether the LMS as we know it is dead and if not, what is the evolution of the LMS. In that discussion, each of us covered various avenues and in a couple of topics all commented. Majority of employees access a LMS or Learning Portal out of the workplace.

Look at the e-learning market and ask yourself, if the consumer market as a whole is using this, why wouldn’t vendors in our space follow suit? 21% reported they do not have a learning platform as this time. I know I would. Equals 38%. 2% were unsure. Bottom Line.

Extended Enterprise – aka Multi-Tenet, Portals-Sub Portals. If you want an EE, you will want e-commerce.

You could count on your hand the number of vendors even looking at it, and I’m not just talking LMSs/Learning Portals, but content authoring tools and other products. Forums and discussion boards are making a come back (why?). Tablets were never even a consideration, and I’m talking in 2010.

I see it a lot, especially with social learning and the wonderment of some vendors of adding a “discussion forum and text chat room&# as part of their solution. I know, I have. Great stuff, for 1996. I even see it with reports – and with their “ad-hoc&# capability.

When it comes to the e-learning market, specifically the LMS space (and you can toss in LCMS, CMS, Learning Portals as well), there are a lot of traps that customers fall into and can’t get out. All this means, is that they have a partnership deal with the content vendor, that’s it.

During the demo, I clarify that what I am seeing in the demo, is what was discussed prior to – i.e. what will be in my system – and not extra or not in my system. This may be somewhat of a shocker, but there are plenty of vendors in the space, who show you one thing, but in reality you get something else.
