But, the reason I constantly bash this into e-learning vendors heads is this just DON’T GET IT. Yet, a majority of vendors in the e-learning space as a whole, are just not doing it. For consumers in general, smartphones are number one in the market, then PGPs (Portable Game Players) and so on.

It comes from me talking to vendors, buyers, monitoring the industry all the while taking notes and seeing the trends/patterns appear right before my eyes. What has always amazed me are number of e-learning vendor web sites whose design looks like it came from 1995 when Netscape ruled the land. E-Learning 24/7.

In the past few months, many of you probably have noticed a slight uptick in to the number of vendors who have been acquired either by another vendor in the market, or outside of the e-learning space or even a Private Equity firm. There are some on the market. What can you do going forward?

In 2010, the RCAT market continued its upswing and nothing indicates to me it will be changing anytime soon. The Big Dogs – which in this case, deals more with market share, for the most part continued to push forward, yet from an innovation standpoint, uh, solid, but not outstanding.

Is it me or does it seem that most vendors in the LMS/LCMS market still believe that with some smoke and mirrors, you won’t realize that social media actually must be integrated into social learning for it to exist? Or do they just drop the word, “social media&# , and rather say, “social learning and web 2.0″?

I love Questionmark, its a wonderful product and it can use a “connector” to integrate into your learning platform or system. However, times are continuing to change in regards to the overall standalone quiz/assessment tools market. The standalone market for these seems to no longer make sense. Bottom Line.

Unfortunately, too many vendors in the e-learning space have failed to see the power and potential of this capability, and have decided to ignore them. They are not cutting edge, they do not see where the market needs to go or is going. E-Learning 24/7. What’s that? So, what do you do?

SumTotal’s announcement does not include learning as part of their HCM, which for now is great news – but at some point will that change? What about other companies out there in the HCM space, will they be seeking to acquire LMS vendors with such a goal in mind? It is a whole new world for the e-learning space.

As noted earlier in this post, the whole “compliance” driven features is striking the market at a fervor pace. While it is true that regulatory feature sets are useful – it totally depends on who are your target markets/vertical niches. Types of Training (respondents could select as many as they wanted).
