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.

Comments
-
We like Tracker.Net LMS. And the support is great..!!
-
As always, thank you in advance for your excellent support of a terrific product.
-
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.

Your tracking products for ToolBook (and now SCORM) content have made my work as a content provider immeasurably better and easier.
-
The configuration tool offered by Platte Canyon is really easy to use so you don't have to be an expert to install Tracker.
-
First of all thank you again for a great product in Tracker.Net. We have just completed development work for our first client and I'm taking the system over tomorrow to install it. We think the combination of Tracker and our training software is
going to be very powerful offering.
