Article summary

In any learning management system (LMS), the admin experience can significantly impact efficiency, satisfaction, and overall success. Therefore, when picking an LMS to create, deliver, and manage your organization’s training, consider what you need to do and how you will do it.

A smooth and intuitive admin experience allows you to manage training delivery quickly and effortlessly, freeing up your time for other tasks. Conversely, a complicated admin experience can slow you down, create bottlenecks, add frustration, and negatively impact training outcomes.

We designed SmarterU LMS with powerful features that LMS administrators crave. With a modern interface, intuitive navigation, and smooth workflows, SmarterU’s admin interface simplifies every aspect of LMS management.

To showcase how easy it is to use SmarterU LMS, we’ve created a series of eight videos that walk you through the admin interface. Each video also highlights the system's different features, their benefits, and how they empower you to deliver better training.
