When each is the better choice
When TalentLMS is the better choice
- Five or fewer people will use it: the Free plan has no time limit.
- You want a ready-made course library on day one (the TalentLibrary add-on).
When 360Learning is the better choice
- Peer-authored, collaborative learning is your strategy.
- You want monthly billing with no annual commitment, for under 100 users at a known per-user price.
When neither fits
- You want to pay for each person who signed in that month, with no bracket and no minimum.
- You want SSO and SCIM from the entry paid plan (see the pricing page for its price).
- You want the AI Course Studio, where a locked blueprint keeps generated lessons to the outline you approved.
If neither bracket pricing nor a per-registered-user plan fits how many people actually sign in each month, Personal Academy bills per active user with no minimum. The pricing page shows every plan and a calculator. See pricing
