How to choose
Under 50 people with no budget yet: TalentLMS Free covers 5 users and 10 courses, and Core starts at $119 a month. If you also sell training to clients, LearnWorlds charges a flat price per school.
Courses come from your own experts: 360Learning, up to 100 users on the Team plan. Training should follow hiring and reviews: Leapsome, if you also want its HR modules. Customers and partners need their own portals: TalentLMS Pro with 15 branches, LearnUpon from 100 users, or Docebo.
From 300 users with a three-year budget, Sana Learn has a public indicative price. Docebo fits large companies that need sandboxes, a dedicated database or FedRAMP. If you only need to build SCORM courses for an LMS you already have, look at an authoring tool such as Elucidat, now sold as Create by Confirm on a quote.
How we picked
We chose learning management systems that companies use for employee, customer and partner training, from the European catalog with a profile. Six are based in Europe. Docebo started in Italy and still employs about 400 people there, while its head office is in Toronto.
We left out school platforms such as itslearning and authoring tools that do not host learners. Prices, user limits, contracts and SCORM support come from the official pricing pages and the company profiles, checked on 6 October 2026. Order follows fit for small and mid-size companies, with enterprise options last.
