The short answer

Moodle Workplace leads on pricing transparency (2.0 to 0.0), with 6 judges leaning its way, though no price figures appear in either verdict and pricing is not weighted here.

Moodle Workplace's verdict cites a published privacy notice and data processing agreement; imc Learning Suite's credits a documented on-premise option and records no public information on hosting location or a data processing agreement. Weighted totals per judge run 4.6 to 5.7 for imc Learning Suite against 3.1 to 3.6.

The Customer Education Lead

Runs customer education at a software company in Amsterdam that sells to 3,000 business customers and trains 120 implementation partners. Built the first academy on a course shop and outgrew it when partners needed their own portal and certifications that expire. Wants branded portals per audience, single sign-on from the product, paid courses with invoices, completions in the CRM, and a price that does not double when the academy finally works.

This judge's pick

Moodle Workplace

Criterion by criterion

Courses, learning paths & content standards

imc Learning Suite

SCORM and LTI support plus xAPI/Tin Can import into an internal learning record store are documented, alongside an AI-assisted authoring tool with one-click translation into over 70 languages, multilingual course templates, blended learning with QR-code attendance at live events, and off-the-shelf content such as a cybersecurity learning journey. We found no public information on question pools, graded assignments, accessibility conformance, or an offline mobile app, and the AI tool's model and data use are not explained.

Moodle Workplace

The developer documentation proves real LMS machinery — a question bank, a gradebook, enrolment, course backup and restore as XML, and xAPI statement handling — and there are free Android and Apple apps. But we found no public information on the course builder itself: learning paths, certificates, multilingual course delivery, accessibility conformance or off-the-shelf content are not described on the captured pages.

Compliance training, recertification & audit trail

imc Learning Suite

Automated assignment, deadlines, learner reminders, escalation processes, global certification and recertification with reporting are documented, backed by a named compliance deployment covering 90,000 Audi employees, QR-based attendance at events, and stated ISO 27001 certification and GDPR adherence. We found no public information on course versioning with the completed version stored per learner, an unalterable audit trail, attestations or e-signatures, or compliance dashboards by legal entity.

Moodle Workplace

We found no public information on mandatory training assignment, due dates with reminders or escalation, recurring recertification, policy attestations or audit-ready records. The pages we read cover developer APIs, course and content creation, and the vendor's own terms and privacy policy acceptance rather than compliance training features.

Onboarding, extended enterprise & academies

imc Learning Suite

Employees, partners, customers, members and resellers are all served, with automated onboarding workflows per hire, department or subsidiary, separate learning environments for partner groups, tailored learning portals including updates to existing external portals, single sign-on via SAML 2.0, Open ID or OAuth, and course sales through a Shopify interface with discount codes and gift cards — most of what my academy needs. We found no public information on subscriptions or invoicing for course sales, self-registration for external learners, manager tasks in onboarding, or login for frontline staff without a company email.

Moodle Workplace

There is an enrolment API for course participants, a payments API, and a branded mobile app offered as a Premium subscription or by enquiry, so external audiences and some form of paid learning exist in the product. We found no public information on automated onboarding journeys, separate branded portals per audience, or partner certification with renewal — the things my academy outgrew its first platform over.

Reporting, learner data & works council

imc Learning Suite

Detailed learning analytics and new user-activity reports on channel content are documented, together with granular access rights for administrative and regional independence. We found no public information on scheduled or custom report delivery, what learner data is recorded, retention and deletion rules, pseudonymised or aggregated reporting, switching off time or score tracking, or any works council and codetermination material — which matters for our Amsterdam workforce.

Moodle Workplace

An analytics API for prediction models and insights, a gradebook, per-user data discovery, export and deletion via the privacy API, and a published data processing agreement give a genuine learner-data story. We found no public information on manager-level visibility restrictions, switching off time or score tracking, or any material for a works council or works agreement.

Integrations, administration & portability

imc Learning Suite

Single sign-on with SAML 2.0, Open ID and OAuth, an Open Web Services API with flat-file exchange, integrated and custom-built connectors, HR-system integration, a Shopify interface, on-premise or cloud deployment, and course export to SCORM are documented. HR systems and CRM connectors are never named — so I cannot confirm pushing completions into our CRM — and we found no public information on SCIM provisioning, webhooks, a public API reference with rate limits, a sandbox, or export of users, completions and certificates.

Moodle Workplace

The web services and external functions APIs are documented, OAuth 2 is supported for external systems, and course data can be backed up and restored as XML. We found no public information on SAML or OpenID Connect single sign-on, SCIM provisioning, or connectors for named HR or CRM systems — for me that means completions flowing into the CRM is unproven from these pages.

European sovereignty

imc Learning Suite

GDPR adherence, encryption in transit and at rest, ISO 27001 certification and regular external penetration tests are stated, an on-premise deployment option is documented, and a privacy policy page is captured. Where cloud-hosted learner data is stored, which subprocessors run video, email or AI features, and whether a data processing agreement is published are all unknown from the captured pages.

Moodle Workplace

The entity shown is Moodle Pty Ltd, an Australian company per the provenance note; a privacy policy and data processing agreement are published, hosting location is not stated on the captured pages, and the only chain detail is that push notifications travel through Google and Apple servers with end-to-end encryption available. One support article notes learner data sits in "your Moodle site database (hosted by you or your hosting provider)", but a self-hosted edition with its own documentation is not described here.

Pricing transparency

imc Learning Suite

Across the captured pages we found no prices of any kind — no tiers, no per-user figures, no free tier or trial — and the buying path everywhere is a demo request, brochure download or consultation booking. Nothing on these pages lets me compute even a starting annual cost for an academy, let alone one that scales predictably with learners and portals.

Moodle Workplace

The only pricing facts are a free mobile app download, a Premium plan subscription whose price is not stated, and a branded app you get by contacting the vendor. We found no public information on what Moodle Workplace costs per learner, how tiers scale, or what add-ons such as SSO or extra portals would run — an annual cost cannot be computed from these pages.
