E-Learning Plays an Increasing Role in
Business Strategy, According to Forrester. Six
Enterprise
Learning Management Suites Evaluated
Cambridge,
Mass.,
January 10, 2005 . . .
While many firms adopted e-Learning technologies to educate
their workforce to gain a competitive edge, savings on travel
costs remains one of the largest benefits. Forrester Research,
Inc. (NASDAQ: FORR) finds that today firms are more closely
integrating learning applications with other company activities
and elevating the role learning plays in their businesses'
success. To help clients identify the best learning management
system (LMS) for them, Forrester recently evaluated six LMSes.
This technology allows firms to control, measure, and report on
their deployed learning offerings, and often provides additional
features such as analytics, performance management, and learning
content management.
"The
niche learning suite vendors that focus exclusively on learning
applications have been extending their offerings and integrating
into other business applications in order to survive the
competition from the large enterprise application vendors and
from each other," said Claire Schooley, senior analyst at
Forrester Research. "We're seeing a positive response to this
strategy from customers, who are integrating learning
applications with other company activities. Learning is no
longer something employees do separate from their work — it's
becoming more closely tied to their work and to the success of
the company meeting its goals."
Overall,
Forrester found that the LMS vendors had similar offerings.
However, potential users need to evaluate a vendor according to
their company's needs today and in the future. The life span of
an LMS is about four years, when new technology advances
typically lead to new platforms. This TechRankings is based in
part on the following vendor and product characteristics:
Monitoring and management. How
sophisticated is the product's set of tools for monitoring
and managing processes?
Analysis and optimization. How
sophisticated is the product's set of tools for analyzing
process trends, as well as optimizing and redeploying
processes?
Reporting and analytics. What learning
data does the product track? How does the product enable the
analysis of learning data? What kinds of reports can users
create?
Competency management. How does the
product ensure that learners receive content appropriate to
their needs and the needs of the organization?
Content management. What features does
the product provide to enable the creation and management of
content?
The research mentioned in this release,
"Managing Learning: An Essential Component To Business Success,"
"Standalone LMS Vendors Seek Shelter," and the LMS TechRankings
are available to Forrester WholeView™ clients and can be found
