Who needs a custom LMS

Colleges and schools

Get a custom LMS to centralize the learning experience and manage classes, assignments, and educational progress all in one place. LMS solutions help both teachers and students with automated online assignments, in-platform chat to ask questions, and grading assistance.

EdTech startups

Whether you have an idea or a ready-to-go MVP, we help conduct deep market research, evaluate key features, and test the hypothesis on real users. If the MVP for the learning management system sees the demands, we can refine it into a full-fledged product.

Online courses

Instead of relying on popular generic learning management systems like Coursera or Udemy, get a custom LMS to control your content, user data, and branding. We will design and implement a platform from scratch, according to your logic, business needs, and pedagogic models. And if necessary, the product will be easy to scale and bring to market.

Corporations

Large corporations opt for a custom LMS to centralize the employee training and onboarding process. Get a personalized learning management system to control data security, prevent leaks of sensitive information, and own company-produced content.

Marketplace

Video-sharing

Contentplace is a private web-based marketplace for buying and selling video content rights. It was designed for content creators and marketing professionals, but the architecture and functionality are similar to learning management systems.

The platform users can upload video content (similar to courses), add a description, filter search, and accept transactions if their digital products sell.

LMS redesign

UX/UI design

Zeroney is a learning management system for training for complex and in-demand professions in the fields of data science, VR/AR technologies, and AI. At first, the platform was successful, but over time, the conversion rate began to drop. The client analyzed the product and realized that the platform design was outdated and needed a modern look.

We developed a new platform design and created a “catchy” look using a futuristic style and 3D animations to attract new clients.

Chat

Our client, a large chain of electronics stores, iZum, wanted to develop a learning platform to compete with popular learning management systems like Coursera and Udemy.

First, we started with a smaller internal solution for onboarding new employees, and later it will be turned into a fully functional LMS. To anticipate the change, we added key functionality from the start: various user roles, tools to create and publish courses, personal chats and a forum for students.

LMS development services we provide

Custom LMS development

We build a full-fledged learning management system from scratch: research the strongest market players, suggest key features, plan a user-friendly UI, and set up third-party integrations. In the end, you get a ready-to-launch platform that fits your business needs and scales as your company grows.

LMS redesign

Our goal is to improve user engagement and usability of your existing LMS solutions. We audit your current UI/UX, identify what’s not working, and create the new interface and user flow. You receive an updated learning management system with a modern UI, better performance, and a stronger retention rate.

LMS consulting

If you come to us with an idea, we can analyze your business goals and tech stack, suggest the best LMS architecture, and help you choose the right features and integrations. As a result, you get a clear development roadmap with time and budget estimates.

Project discovery

Also known as business analysis, this service is an in-depth research of the market, audience, and idea. We study the popular learning management systems, a.k.a your competitors, calculate unit economics, check if the hypothesis can be profitable, and prepare all the core documentation for the project. You walk away with a complete report ready for custom LMS design and development.

6 key features of LMS

User management

Add different access tiers and user roles for students, instructors, and admins. Let users create profiles, search through educational courses, track progress, and pass tests. For a custom LMS, the user side can also have a dashboard to manage courses at once and see their progress data visualized.

Course management

The core functionality of a learning management system is a tool to upload, structure, and update course materials. Depending on your idea, you can expand these features by adding an option to create modules, set deadlines, and plan learning paths for users.

Progress tracking tool

To keep users motivated, they have to see how they progress. Add a bar that shows what percent of the course a user has completed and how much time they spent on learning. LMS development companies can offer you other ideas after getting familiar with your project.

Quizzes

Use built-in quizzes as a tool to reinforce learning, test knowledge, and keep users engaged. You can also add automated grading and an AI detector to save instructors’ time and give instant feedback on the quality of the paper.

Communication tools

Features like real-time chat and discussion boards make the learning experience more interactive and less lonely. Many LMS development companies suggest adding these tools to boost engagement, help users stay connected, and allow instructors to offer timely support.

Certification

Certificates are a way to reward learners once they complete a course or pass a final test. Take Coursera or Udemy as an example — they issue certificates that people proudly add on LinkedIn and show to employers to certify that they have certain skills.

LMS software development process

1

Project planning

Deliverables: A document with tech requirements for the project and a BPMN that visualizes the learning process

Client involvement: 2 weeks

We are diving deeper into the project details to plan LMS software development. First, we analyze the client’s business needs and processes, then available technologies and potential challenges. At this phase, the LMS development company defines the scope, identifies key features, and researches the competitors to find your unique value proposition.

2

UI/UX design

Deliverables: Wireframes in Figma, UI design kit

Timeline: 5-8 weeks

The designers focus on all aspects of user experience, from the way LMS looks to the way it feels. Here, any LMS development company would prioritize user-friendly interfaces and logic that actually make sense for your students and teachers. We start with creating a mindmap to visualize the content for the platform and then work on wireframes and UI concepts.

3

Custom LMS development

Deliverables: Frontend + backend codebase, API integrations, admin panel

Client involvement: 5-7 months

The LMS software development process is split into 2-week sprints. After each sprint, we have a check-in with the team. This agile approach helps us make changes if the scope or the budget changes. After each sprint, we send clients a mini-report with an update on our progress and give them access to a prototype of an LMS part that we worked on during the sprint.

4

QA testing

Deliverables: Stable and bug-free LMS, ready to be launched

Timeline: in parallel with the development

We test the learning management system in parallel with the development to save time and catch bugs early on before they become a problem. We use a combination of manual and automated tests to make sure the platform is stable and secure before launch.

5

Release

Deliverables: Live product, available for users

Timeline: 1 week

We deploy the learning management system, help with server setup, and make sure your LMS runs smoothly in the real environment. After the launch, we can stay with you to assist with updates, releases, and bug fixes.
