Google Classroom vs TOPYX

Google Classroom is an eLearning solution that’s widely used in education because of its price point. While the base version is free, there is a paid enterprise package with expanded functionality. Reviewers like its simple UI, integration with the G Suite, support of multimedia options and good base functionality with grading, assignments, exams and more. They also felt it encouraged engagement and collaboration while saving time and money. On the flip side, reviewers felt the platform lacked options for customization and didn’t come with enough features. The platform isn’t a full-service LMS. It delivers lessons, shares files and has some higher function feedback functions, but doesn’t have the advanced administrative, reporting and other options of more robust solutions. This is an excellent option for small to medium-sized organizations that need to facilitate training. Make sure you understand the functional differences between the free and enterprise versions.

TOPYX is an LMS and talent management system with multiple HR functions. Users loved the pricing scheme, which has a fixed cost instead of a per-user model that many found affordable. Overall, they found customer service to be friendly and helpful and appreciated the fact that the system was easy to use and learn. Users had heavy issues with the app in the comments on Google Play. The most common complaint was being able to log in and stay that way. Reviewers also had issues with the system remembering and using the correct URL. Several said they used the correct URL and it still wouldn’t work. This platform may be a good option for small and medium-sized companies and institutions. As stated above, there aren’t many reviews of it. Therefore, demo extensively and double-check it has the necessary requirements during the buying process.
