Navigate 3.2.1 Tools for Deciding on an LMS Quest

Below is a brief overview of some of the LMS available today.  I have rated each LMS and categorized each LMS based on the specific learner associated with the system.

LMS	Institution	Commercial or Open Source	Optimal Rating Scale 1-10
Blackboard	k-12, Higher Education	Commercial	10
Pearson Learning Studio	Higher Education, Business	Commercial	10
Desire2Learn	k-12	Commercial	7
Moodle	k-12	Open source	7
Instructional Canvas	Higher Education	Open Source	10

Over, I felt that deciding on an LMS is an overwhelming task. There is a lot of information to navigate and so many variables. I am glad I will not be making the choice of a LMS in the future.
