For fast and reliable lesson builders that anyone can learn, Lessonly is fantastic. We went from someone having to know basic HTML just to put a course up, to anyone who knows how to use a simple editor being able to take courses and assign them to their teams. We saved so much time and effort. In the case of customers wanting content, it becomes more tricky. There's not necessarily a good way to offer courses to people outside of your organization.

  • XWiki offers a very rich API for creating enterprise applications quickly that are easy to maintain and evolve collaboratively.
  • XWiki templating and skinning system is extremely flexible and powerful.

Cons
Seismic
  • Reports can be a little tricky at first. It's not as "built out" as the other parts of the platform.
  • If you're wanting to sell or offer courses to people outside of your organization, this might not be the best software for you.

  • While the basic pieces are available for turning XWiki into an advanced semantic system, some features could be made available more prominently to the user for easing the use of faceted and typed links, paving the way for a new era of collaborative knowledge sharing.

I have not used other products like Lessonly Knowledge. So far every organization I have worked at has used Lessonly Knowledge. I believe that says it all, it seems as though every organization prioritizes purchasing this tool for their employees. This is a good sign! I don't see our organization using another any time soon.
