Here are the Top 5 reasons you should switch from your current LMS to Knowledge Direct version 5.0 and save 20% OFF implementation*:

1. Cost
Although the Knowledge Direct eLearning platform is one of the most powerful and robust systems available, with built-in content authoring, eTranscripts, real time reporting and third-party integration, it is often more affordable than comparable systems. Platform affordability is derived from our unique ability to align our pricing model with individual client needs and budget, based on:

• “Recycled” user licensing
• “Pay only what you use” course access pricing
• Volume discounts

2. Ease-of-Use
Knowledge Direct has one of the cleanest, easiest to use, administrative interfaces, out of any system we’ve seen.” – Jeff Cobb, Tagoras learning management consultants.

Perhaps one of the most important traits in any learning management system is the platform’s ease of use. Many learning management systems and legacy systems are overly complex. Knowledge Direct was designed with one key concept in mind, “keep it simple”. Non-technical content managers can quickly develop self-paced learning modules that include game-based components and mobile versions, then assign the eLearning modules to blended courses that can include live events and social learning features. Administrators can easily monitor learner progress, run advanced reports on course completion, participation, learning gains and much, much more -- without the aid of programmers, database administrators, or other technical personnel.

3. Reliability
Knowledge Direct has enjoyed a 99.99 percent uptime in the past 60 months and a 100% up-time over the past three years. Knowledge Direct is a hosted, Software as a Service (SaaS) platform, with a 100MB internet connection and 15 MB fiber to the redundant data-center.

4. Customer Support

“Digitec delivers on its responsiveness to our eLearning needs and commitment to quality customer service. We know we can count on our Digitec colleagues to help with any challenges we have.” – Sheila Fernley, Education eLearning Curriculum Director, LRP Publications

Administrator and end user support for the Knowledge Direct learning management system is available through live telephone and chat support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Technical support is also available via email.

5. Integrated Authoring

Built-in content authoring tools within the Knowledge Direct platform make creating engaging eLearning easy. Knowledge Direct’s rapid content authoring tool allows LMS administrators to quickly create content from existing Microsoft® PowerPoint presentations, insert interactive learning activities from Knowledge Direct’s library of instructional game templates, add YouTube videos. The integrated Direct-to-WEB tool automatically creates a version of the module for web, mobile devices (including iPhone and iPad!), and MP3 players.

Direct-to-WEB is a revolutionary web-based rapid content authoring tool that is included with the Knowledge Direct implementation. No user licensing fees.

Do you use a different content tool or have existing course content? No problem. Knowledge Direct includes options to use any course creation tool, and SCORM conformant courses can be migrated to the new platform.
