The Problem:

Organizations around the world need to manage e-Learning. The leading standard for the communication between the content and the Learning Management System (LMS) is the SCORM Runtime Environment. Tracker.Net applies the awesome power of ASP.NET and Microsoft® SQL Server™ to this task. Come join customers like Circle K, British Airways, Syncrude Canada, YMCA of the USA, Long Island Rail Road, American Signature, Mac's Convenience Stores, L-3 Communications, St. Francis Healthcare, Copenhagen Airports, Drug Free Business, various government agencies, and many more!

The Solution:

Tracker.Net implements all mandatory and optional communication elements listed in the SCORM 1.2 and 2004 Runtime Environment Specification. Rather than messing with SCORM manifest files, you use Tracker.Net's Administrator interface to define lesson locations, organize lessons into courses, set passing scores, and more. You can even set lesson and course completion status via the Administrator in addition to having it set automatically via SCORM. Tracker.Net manages ToolBook HTML, Flash, Dreamweaver, Lectora, Captivate, ASP.NET, and any other content that can communicate via SCORM.

User Comments

  • We are a small non-profit organization and for three years we have been using Tracker.Net by Platte Canyon Software http://www.trackernet.net. We researched dozens of vendors and Tracker.Net gives us the “biggest bang for the buck” by far. This is software you purchase and run off a server, but it wasn't hard to install and the support has always been friendly and fast. It has more flexible features than you could ever use. This was the least expensive program that we reviewed. Yes, its initial cost is probably more than for a hosted solution, but once you calculate the actual costs over a period of time we found that Tracker.Net paid for itself the first year. They have a free live webinar demonstration every week, and/or you can request an individual demonstration and/or download a free trial version.
  • I browsed through the demo quickly and I like a lot of what I saw. The Globals section in tabs is a really nice user-friendly piece
  • I just checked and we have 568,252 StudentLessonInformation records - so Students X Lessons taken - and that doesn't count when an employee has taken a lesson twice because it has annual or quarterly expiration. Our system takes a beating and I would say that we are extremely satisfied.
  • Your tracking products for ToolBook (and now SCORM) content have made my work as a content provider immeasurably better and easier.
  • I am getting familiar with Tracker.Net and we really like it. It seems to fit our needs and is easy to use.
  • I'm really impressed at the ease of use and technical reliability of the product. If you haven't already I'd suggest you try and get Tracker.Net under the noses of Brandon Hall and others, as I really have never seen an LMS so simple to use.
