Tutor LMS

Avantages

The platform is pretty nice, it does offer a good value for money, the Dashboard offered to browse into the different sections of any account is convenient, easy to use, and the course visualizer is nice.

Inconvénients

It does not offer many ways to be easily customized. And there is a super drawback in the assessment capabilities when designing a course, there is no way to create a quiz without marks nor a poll. Those are must features when it comes to a course platform since many times instructors need to freely evaluate the students without applying any mark, or eventually, instructors need to consult students about the course itself.

Avantages

We used the free opensource edition and we were impressed about the easiness of integration with WordPress and ability to edit the source code to fit our need, in short:
1- Ease of integration.
2- Flexibility to be edited.
3- Free.

Inconvénients

1- Lacks some of the major LMS features such as Evaluations, certifications, etc. (It's found in the paid edition of course)
2- No support for the free edition, but the opensource community is more than enough for us.

It makes building our electronic library possible.

Inconvénients

Sometimes customization can be difficult. However, it's still manageable.

Avantages

The course builder is easy to use and have so many features.

Inconvénients

I just purchased a license and while building my website I got locked out and could not log back in. I keep getting an endless maintenance mode message. Also, the mockup courses won't delete .

Avantages

Setting up Tutor LMS has been way easier than I ever expected - offering a simple install-and-it's-pretty-much-ready option. We are in the process of launching an e-learning platform for our church, and Tutor LMS has made the process way simpler than I would have ever expected - giving the ability for even tech illiterate people to create courses with only a little bit of training. While this free version does not compare with the added features of PRO, having a free version with this much versatility is incredible - anyone could very quickly setup a website, build a home page with basic info, and then drop Tutor LMS in and have a ready-to-use learning platform.

Tutor also allows for paid courses, integrating very quickly with WooCommerce to allow for payment processing of courses.

Inconvénients

Tutor LMS is very easy-to-use and offers beautiful pre-built templates for all Tutor LMS pages, however it does not offer much customizability for those pages (without perhaps extensive CSS coding). Fortunately this does not matter too much, as their pre-built template is very reminiscent of a Material Design 2.0 style, however it could be problematic for people who's web style does not match that of Tutor's.

This is the most complete learning management system available for WordPress as well as for the mobile app. The best things about this LMS is that it integrates with Woocommerce and Elementor for free and it also integrates with the mobile app using RestAPI. Moreover, its premium version offers with a lifetime licence, as well as front end course development functionality. These all the capabilities of Tutor LMS make it a unique system that offer every thing required to start an online educational institution.

Inconvénients

The system is so much complete that I cannot find any major problem with it. However, it can be more improved if it offers more shortcodes and front end course development for free.

Avantages

Without any complication we easily manage online cources on our website it's very smooth way to reach the target. As we wish we easily sell any cources from our website portal. From wordpress wide dashboard we check our sales information and it's compactiable with woocommerce. That's why payment collection was now more easy from any source almost we collect cource fees without any hassle.

Inconvénients

Tutor LMS is very simple system for developer and for Users it's too much easy to use for everyone.Just required to install Tutor LMS plugin from wordpress dashboard this plugin automitaclly create everything for us. This plugin working properly with almost every popular themes and page builde. Lot's of castomization option also available so I like everything about Tutor LMS.

Avantages

this software has good advantages points but most of it for me as a developer is easy to develop, unlike other lms; tutor has cool documentation help me with edit classes , controllers and customize view , the ease to develop open the door to dozen function to be add as i have the great built in functions, that make me said that tutor lms is a greate lms to start with , if you have the right developer you can do any thing with it.

Inconvénients

tutor lms has major disadvantage i believe they didnot consider appearance whene they bulid lms i mean what a bad look student dashboard have, they even forget to have breadcrumbs whick cost me nothing to add but that effect the overall image of lms.

Avantages

I loved the UI. It looks good to the customers/students. Looks more professional than many other options. Plus, it's on Lifetime Deal right now.

Inconvénients

The customer care is OKish. I mean not as prompt as you would like. The live chat is mostly for pre-sales queries. Once you buy the product they will not entertain you. They will ask you to email them and wait for days to get their reply. If you are in rush then god save you. Implementation is not easy at all. So, customer care is much required. They have some documentation and few old videos on Youtube but I think they should create more tutorials teaching their latest updates. BTW the refund is not "NO QUESTIONS ASKED" and they will ask you a lot of questions if you ask for refund. I am concerned that once my refund period is over they might not address my issues as promptly.

Avantages

Tutor lms has been far the most easy to use and implement learning management tool. It integrates well with other softwares like MailChimp and buddypress.

Inconvénients

I have had many people complain about redirects on the plugin. Also takes time to send emails.

Avantages

Al ser un componente de fácil implementación en la plataforma de wordpress. Brinda la facilidad en la gestión de cursos, desde creación, desactivación.

Inconvénients

Su dificultad de personalización de diseños y colores, que seria ideal al presentar contenido educativo y los cursos.

I like the look of the software and the promise of so many integrations. The potential is what won me over. They promised full Gutenberg editor, integration with Elementor, quizzes, reviews, Woocommerce integration, and so much more. All the functionality and ease of use was so so promising. Too bad it didn't live up to any of that.

Inconvénients

Most of the features and integrations Tutor LMS advertises are not true integrations. Gutenberg can only be used on the course home page. You canNOT use Gutenberg for lessons/quizzes/assignments. You have to use classic editor. It also was buggy for me, where any time I'd edit a lesson/quiz/assignment, everything that was already there would be deleted. When I asked support, they said it wasn't Tutor LMS's fault; it's my theme's fault. And that basically sums up my experience with support. Nothing is ever their fault, ever. Instead of making software that actually works with the giants like Elementor, Wordpress (it was a standard Wordpress theme), they say it's the giants' fault.

The Woocommerce integration is also extremely buggy. If you just look at the support forums, there's always people asking about issues. I had so many issues with it, and support kept giving me conflicting advice (different support members told me to have a box checked, but others said to not have that box checked). When I brought it up when I left a 1-star review on the Wordpress plugin page, again it was not Tutor LMS's fault! They said, "We have a lot of new support team members, sorry." No sign that they'll make sure to train them better. Nothing.

To sum up, what I hate the most about Tutor LMS is their attitude. They don't care about their customers at all. They don't care that the information they present is misleading. They just say, "Well, we're adding more functions to these integrations."

Avantages

It is easy to install once you're used to working with LMS.

Inconvénients

Lacking quiz options. The quiz models that come with Tutor LMS Pro are very limited. The layout of the lessons online is confusing, not clearly delineated what is what, it's not really user-friendly. There are several bugs like overlapping texts that in fact should be side by side. Updating/ saving chzanges does not always work. If you're lucky, any changes are saved, but not always. Exporting quizzes is ok, but importing them fails: the csv files are distorted when importing them (comma problem), customer service is not able or not willing to fix it. Overall, customer service is horrible, unfriendly, unprofessional, unwilling to support.

Avantages

they have a lot of plugins to add, it's a cheaper solution on the market, they have great support.
if you are a developer it is the best option, they work with system overrides
and if you are a normal user, you can choose from many templates,
works with Elementor and is optimized for SEO

Inconvénients

a single customer can't buy X qty of courses to share with their employees, so need to work / think more on b2b

Avantages

Easy to install and easy to use.There is no long learning period.In one afternoon you can understand all the secrets of the program

Inconvénients

It does not have a system to deactivate courses when a certain time passes

Avantages

The product is not bad for the price however it is priced at the top end for similar versions of the functionality.
The plugin is also littered with bugs.
The support is slow, has email send and receive issues and also has no ticketing system on their site which makes support virtually impossible.
We have since deleted this plugin and moved to an alternative.

Inconvénients

Bugs in the plugin and terrible support. We lost time and money with administrators losing content uploaded to the courses. Very annoying.

There are so many features in Tutor LMS that are really good. I particularly enjoy the frontend course builder which I have not seen in any other LMS. It helps me create courses on the go and see how it looks live. Instructors in my eLearning site can also create courses on the frontend without depending on any admin. The process is made so much easier and efficient with Tutor LMS frontend course builder.

Inconvénients

Although the LMS is quite new in the market, they're still missing a few features like the content drip.

Avantages

theme looks great and easy to manage design changes.

Inconvénients

the customer support, its just terrible......i cant stress enough how bad it is.

even if it was free i would'nt use it again.

Avantages

At first I was worried that it would be really complex like other plugins. But then I got it going and it's really easy to setup. Basically it just flows when you are building and drag and drop helps out a lot. You can build a simple or complex learning management system with free or payed capabilities.

Inconvénients

Would like the option to have templates to choose different style.

Avantages

This product has broken our WordPress site and Themeum.com provide no support whatsoever.
Avoid this product at all costs.
We will be going back to Learndash which is a far more reliable plugin.

Inconvénients

The fact that it broke our website and also the terrible customer service

Avantages

There are numerous features in Tutor LMS that make it very easy for instructors to create a comprehensive course in Tutor LMS. One of the best features is the quiz creator in Tutor LMS that enables one to build absolutely any kind of question paper. I ger over 10 types of question types to choose from, randomizing question options and automated checking. The frontend course builder lets me see exactly how my quizzes appear to students.

Inconvénients

I am yet to experience any cons with Tutor LMS. Obviously it could still incorporate more features and there's always room for improvement. So far Tutor LMS has been very easy and efficient to use.
