The 2016 LMS market is not what you think. We ask them all about business drivers, trends, market opportunities, use cases, demand, competition and measurable successes. We incorporate what we learn from each conversation into our analysis and understanding of the learning technology market. In 2016, it is not so simple.

Because of the size of the market and split out of types of systems, it made sense to create an umbrella term and then place the main four types of systems under said umbrella. . The biggest market in size and scope are LMSs (Learning Management Systems). LEP/LXP market. Simply, the best K-6 LMS on the market.

When I began my career as an analyst, I started out studying the LMS market. Many now sit behind consumer-like front ends built by companies such as Cornerstone, SumTotal and Instructure. I don’t predict the end of big systems like Saba, SumTotal, SAP or any other LMS vendor overnight.

Netscape showed up, and dominated the market. Who led the market? This is totally subjective because the market early on, had many vendors – but actual numbers vary. SumTotal – Today? Owned by SumTotal – who ruined it, because by then it was GeoLearning Maestro (not that great). Sure folks.

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. There is a wide assumption that if a product sells a lot it means that it is better than anyone else. Think about it.

The LMS market started changing after the dot com bust in 2001. A steady flurry of acquisitions disrupted customers’ lives but never the market as a whole. Starting around 2010, the market began changing again. Innovation was stagnant and most vendor effort was invested in stealing customers from one another.

Speaking of SumTotal, as you may or may not be aware any of their modules can be purchased as a standalone or any combination.

Old-school LMS companies (like SumTotal , Plateau , Learn.com , GeoLearning and Certpoint ) were acquired by much larger talent and HR-suite providers like SAP/SuccessFactors , Infor , Oracle and IBM.

Similar thoughts are often associated with SumTotal (although they have vastly improved their UI, but they do see themselves at least from my take, and even through a Google search as a HCM, especially after the acquisition by Skillsoft), SuccessFactors, Oracle Learn, Saba, Kenexa and a few others. It can make or break any product.
