Easy to use LMS

PROS: Easy to use but also possible to create complex eLearning scenarios. You have so many options, but also without deeper knowledge there are good results. In case if you need help, there are official providers which will help to realize your goals. Sure, not for free, but in general not as time-consuming as if you would try it yourself ;-)

CONS: There is nothing i dislike, but in general newer versions should be tested thoroughly!

"La mejor y más completa plataforma LMS - Open Source"
What do you like best about Chamilo LMS?

Su facilidad,su despliegue, multiidioma, Super completa. La he desplegado para un grupo de personas que nunca habían tenido acercamiento con la tecnología (Algunos de ellos nunca habían cogido un portátil o pc) y se les facilito toda la experiencia de trabajo sobre esta plataforma .

-Resalto mucho la adaptabilidad que tiene en dispositivos moviles.

-La generación y construcción de los certificados me parece que es un item ganador.

-Las distintas plantillas que maneja lo hacen muy interesante para manejar diferentes entornos y -grupos (niños, niñas, adolecentes, mujeres, hombre, grupos, etc)

-La gestión de sesiones ha permitido crear cursos desatendidos (MOOCS) en los que le usuario nuevo se registra y comienza su experiencia virtual sin ser gestionado o guiado por un docente real.

What do you dislike about Chamilo LMS?

Su proyecto completo descomprimido tiene muchísimos archivos. Algunas plataformas de hosting no dejan descomprimir un ZIP o un TAR, lo que hace muy demorado cargar todo el proyecto descomprimido por un FTP por ejemplo.

Recommendations to others considering Chamilo LMS:

No lo piensen más. Chamilo ofrece todo lo que las demás herramientas LMS ofrece. Es muy robusta y fácil de desplegar, administrar y transformar si así lo decides. Te radas cuenta como tus usuarios o publico objetivo aprende a usarla en el menor tiempo esperado.

Yo tarde mucho tiempo comparando y desplegando Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas y otras, y definitivamente Chamilo cumplio con todas mi espectativas.

What problems is Chamilo LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Facilitar el estudio y auto aprendizaje de grupos homogéneos. Otras plataformas LMS se hacen complejas de manejar y entender. Soy graduado de Ingeniería Informática de una universidad 100% virtual, y la plataforma LMS que usaba algunas veces se me complicaba navegar en ella considerando que (modestamente! soy hábil para las tecnologías) , de modo que toda persona que se acerque a esta plataforma, es muy facil que la pueda manejar sin problema.

Su entorno ilustrado facilita mucha más aun el trabajo. La icono bien representado, Caba botón. cada menú.

"Easy and powerful"
What do you like best about Chamilo LMS?

Chamilo is more versatile than other LMS, because use any educational paradigm to create your courses.

You can run Chamilo on servers with very few memory and processor resources and handle hundreds of students at the same time.

I prefer it over Moodle or other LMS for its simplicity and easy handling.

What do you dislike about Chamilo LMS?

Templates are not abundant as in Moodle.

"LMS for Beginners and Professionals"
What do you like best about Chamilo LMS?

To get started so easy, that would be my first convincing point. Beginners, who have no or just a litte experience with Learning Managment Software will be surprised. Creatng a lesson for example is more or less really intuitive, the most features are self-explanatory. This way you can create more complex scenarios very quickly.

For the advanced users are the most common features build in (evaluation, different types of tests, classbuilding, etc.).

What do you dislike about Chamilo LMS?

Nothing really. Maybe, but i'd say every software has this problem, sometimes problems with new features if known as beta. But thats up to the user to test, no force :-).

What problems is Chamilo LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The most commong problems are academic, there are many requests for eLearning in that area. But there are also a lot of company who use Chamilo in workshops.

Therefore we realized these workshops or gave instructions.

"Awesome simple software with many possibilities"
What do you like best about Chamilo LMS?

Easy to use but also possible to create complex eLearning scenarios.

You have so many options, but also without deeper knowledge there are good results.

What do you dislike about Chamilo LMS?

There is nothing i dislike, but in general newer versions should be tested thoroughly :-)

Recommendations to others considering Chamilo LMS:

If you think moodle could be more easier, have a look at Chamilo.

More features, most modules/plugins are onboard (and therefore maintained to next versions from core developers).

But it has a totally different approach.

Also, you should have a look at the oogie - Powerpoint-Converter or the integration of bbb (bigbluebutton).

Both are really good to use, and give you further possibilities.

What problems is Chamilo LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We provide several portals for medical education, language skills, computer knowledge, and many more.

In case of medical education, Chamilo is used to deliver new informations for nurses and doctors and the available portal is approved by Bavarian State Chamber of Physicians.

"Easy to install, easy to use, easy to manage."
What do you like best about Chamilo LMS?

As an computer engineer Chamilo is easy to install and has a very low RAM and CPU consumption.

As an LMS administrator, no configuration is needed to start using the platform, integration with an existing information system is easy. If needed, you can activate or modify many options to fit your teachers' needs better.

As a teacher, you need a short traning to use the platform. Tool usage is intuitive, and when you get used to them, you can start using the learning path tool to put your course into an educational sequence. In a third step, click on Advanced tool prorperties to improve your Chamilo experience. Teachers can use the platform gradually without being lost.

Students don't need training. It's really an advantage when you have several thousands of students using your platforms, with new students every years.

[warning, technical speaking here ;) ] If you are a web developper, you'll really apreciate the use of the newest develloping tehcnology in Chamilo. Chamilo uses Silex components of the PHP Symfony framework (which is, of course, open sources too)... and it is just great. This is a guarantee of security, resistance, flexibility and easier coding contribution to Chamilo.

What do you dislike about Chamilo LMS?

There is nothing i dislike. May be, as for many other softwares, care if you install a very new major version, test it on some of your courses before migrating.

Recommendations to others considering Chamilo LMS:

You are sure to make the right choice using Chamilo, beginner LMS Teachers usersand advanced ones will take advantage of the platform.

New LMS teacher users will easilly use it and will be able to improve there Chamilo experience gradually.

More experimented teachers will find the usual LMS tools, and will be able to use advanced tools and functionnalities at short notice.

What problems is Chamilo LMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The developping community is really nice and skilled. It's a great advantage for us, we can developpe or improve new functionnalities for our teachers (new quizzes, new reporting chart...), and after a strong code review, these functionnalities can be added to the official platform distribution. We can share our work with over universities, or Chamilo developpers, and vice versa.
