    “Very pleased with the service – it was great to work with a team with specific expertise in what we were trying to do (rather than us making it up in-house!), and the output was certainly better and more cost-effective than what we would have achieved ourselves.”

Frequently asked
questions

Do you work with international clients?
Yes. Most of our clients are based in the US & Europe, although we’re happy to explore working with organisations from other countries too.
How do you ensure the scalability of LearnDash?
It’s no secret that most implementations of LearnDash do not scale, resulting in slow, unreliable and buggy LMS. Our light-weight approach to development means custom-building designs and functionality as opposed to using bloated off-the-shelf plugins. Furthermore, we’ve built our own scalability suite that patches many LearnDash bottlenecks. Finally, our next-generation hosting infrastructure scales up and down on demand to ensure sufficient resources to run your LMS, even during your busiest times.
Is there a limit to the scale of LearnDash?
Yes. There are some WordPress/LearnDash limitations that mean that it won’t infinitely scale. However, we have fine-tuned our LD scalability expertise and can push it further than any other agency. Should you outgrow LearnDash, we have other, more scalable LMS development options.
Is LearnDash right for us?
LearnDash isn’t right for every business. However, before making technology decisions, we will take the time to understand your goals and will make CMS/LMS recommendations later… Sometimes we find that there’s a more appropriate approach that’ll allow us to deliver a better end-product, so we’ll make those recommendations when we have the full picture. We’ll never move forward with an LMS framework that isn’t 100% right for you.
Can you integrate with LTIs?
Yes, we can integrate remote learning tools into your courses.
Can you match the design of our existing websites?
Absolutely. Your users will feel like they never left your website, with branded designs and SSO for a truly integrated experience.
Can you build a mobile app?
Yes. We can create front-ends for mobile, desktop or browser access.
