GBYoung but Growing Quickly. EZColab is a young, but quickly aging product. LMS products are quickly proliferating the SaaS landscape. Many are stale and there are not a lot of enhancements. EZColab is constantly enhancing and innovating their platform. Their focus is on the client experience and making sure that people use their platform...not just occasionally visit. As such, it's very robust with the bells and whistles. I also very much like that the team is open to suggestions in order to continuously improve their offering. The five stars is partly based on my belief where on where the product is heading. As it stands today, it's likely closer to a four than a five. If the product stalls out, I'll be back to update accordingly.

GBI can't say enough positive things… I can't say enough positive things about EZ Colab and its support team. I've implemented and administered enterprise learning systems (Cornerstone, Saba, Skillport, etc.) for a decade and I can say that what EZ Colab offers is great, especially at its price point. To be clear, this is not an enterprise LMS, so if SCORM or xAPI tracking are essential for your business, EZ Colab does not fit your use case. I have heard that SCORM compatibility is coming; however, this is a system that seems to be designed for business, coaches, and other subject matter experts who focus on selling and delivering content to consumers (think Thinkific, Podia, Ruzuku, New Zenler, etc.) If this describes you, then read on, because EZ Colab checks all the buttons plus some. Pros: - Intuitive to use: You can pick up this system and start building a course in less than an hour. - Constant development: Do the founders ever sleep? Updates seem to be coming every week or so. - Flexibility: You can toggle on/off features as needed, and the features are extensive. Badges, idea submission, events, live sessions, and file uploads to posts are just a few that I love. - Mobile app for learning on the go. - Full stack learning solution in one affordable package. Not only do you get a course builder, but you also get marketing and community features. - Speaking of community features, this system is designed around social learning. I cannot think of another platform that is built from the ground up for this. If group learning experiences are key to your business, this is the platform to get. No one else comes close. Cons: - Each page in a course can have a video element, rich text (including HTML) element, assignment, and upload. This all fantastic. Unfortunately, you cannot currently "stack" more components on a page. For instance, if I want a page with a block of text at the top, followed by an HTML embed, followed by a video, followed by another text block, followed by another video, ad infinitum, this isn't currently possible. Some other LMSes provide a lot more flexibility on each page than EZ Colab. - While there is a mobile app for students, the EZ Colab browser-based builder is not optimized for mobile. You probably won't find yourself doing much course creation from a mobile device, but being able to easily edit your course on the go would be useful. - You may get an odd error message or two when turning on/off a feature. It's been unpredictable when it happens. I believe it may be due to how rapidly the team is adding new features (which is awesome!), so it's just a minor gripe. - Committed founders and support team who you can tell LOVE their product. I can't understate this -- they want to be game changers and go above and beyond to deliver an amazing product and superior service. Overall: The EZ Colab team has turned this jaded LMS admin into a believer. The product is being constantly updated, the founders value customer input, and they are passionate about their product. This is a young product moving into a very crowded space. However, I sincerely believe that if you give it try, you will not be disappointed. ***I have not been compensated for this review, nor do I have any affiliation with this company. I'm simply impressed with this product and believe that others should know about the new kid on the block.***

SGPromising Learning Management System EZColab is crazy fast with it's development and the founder is very far sighted in terms of what is needed for individual course creators to succeed with a learning management system. A lot of well thought out features and seeing their progress in a short period of time is very heartening. I'm reserving the last star for when EZColab is ready to roll out and compete with the big names but I have to say, I think they have what it takes to get there.

INAll in one platform for Course Creators I am a user of EZ Colab for many months and the best part of it is that the team is always developing new features and releasing them on a weekly basis. It is very simple for a beginner to get started with the platform with almost no learning curve. I have never seen a community-based LMS before and it is excellent for continuous interaction with my learners with the handy mobile apps as well. I highly recommend using EZ Colab to start your course or coaching business and you will not regret it.
