"eThink provides exceptional service and training over the long-haul"
What do you like best about Open LMS?

eThink has worked with us since 2014, to provide the best user experience possible for our students and faculty. eThink Moodle is fully integrated with our back-end systems allowing for daily sync of all data. Their response time and attention to every ticket has only improved over the years. eThink continuously supports our customization which has had positive impact on student access to resources and tools to support their success.

The eThink support staff consistently provides excellent service when responding to help tickets. Their attention to detail, their knowledge of best practices and how others have used tools in unique applications to meet new campus needs, the advice on +/- ratings on plug-in tools, as well as textbook integrations and other products have saved us time and effort over the years. After working with and managing 3 LMS products over the past 19 years, I can state that eThink is the best hosting and support group I have ever encountered.

We have been able to add several plug-ins which link Hoonuit (formerly Atomic Learning), Respondus (lock down browser), text book plug-ins. Yet eThink also has cautioned us to not use products where they have seen major problems - i.e. textbook plug-in which are not properly secured or have failed for other uses.

What do you dislike about Open LMS?

There really isn't anything I dislike about eThink or the employees I have worked with since 2014. They have consistently improved service and resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Outstanding partner for LMS hosting with excellent customer service"
What do you like best about Open LMS?

eThink Education is the best in the industry for customer service. From inquiry to resolution, they are extremely responsive, thorough and always more than helpful, compared to the “we will get back to you soon” responses from other companies we’ve worked with. We've also used eThink countless times as a sounding board for new ideas and solutions to challenges we've faced. Our partnership offers a direct line to industry experts and peace of mind knowing that when we don't have the answer, eThink is there to step in and offer support.

"eThink LMS host provides excellent service"
What do you like best about Open LMS?

Two things stand out for me about eThink, whom we have used as our Moodle provider since approximately 2014. First, their service is first rate. Not only do they provide and host our Moodle site on their service, they wrote and managed a personalized enrollment sync that creates categories and courses and manages enrollment of faculty and students into these courses on a daily basis. Second, their support whenever issues arrive is unparalleled. I've never had such a good experience, and we're on our third Moodle LMS provider at this point. They answer calls and emails immediately, make fixes or adjustments quickly, and are polite and helpful while they do it. I highly recommend them for you educational organization.

eThink's project plan process was effective in capturing our requirements for the LMS. There was a clear path to implementation and going live, and they provided quality training for our admins. Their prompt response times for support tickets is well above the line. Staff are always very helpful and professional, even with customizing certain LMS features such as reports.

Nothing to dislike! Moodle itself can be a little confusing since it has so many features and is extremely customizable, but I have no concerns in this department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
