LearnDash is the most popular LMS platform for WordPress, by far. And one of the more popular LMS options in general.
However, others are gaining in popularity. This article will explore LearnDash alternatives in the WordPress space, as well as hosted/SaaS LMS platforms outside of WordPress.
Since LearnDash is a WordPress LMS plugin, we’ll first look at the other LMS plugins you can use with WordPress. If you’re already using WordPress and/or committed to the platform, you’ll want to choose a LearnDash alternative WordPress plugin.
There are some free WordPress LMS plugins, but none of them offer the features that LearnDash provides. You’ll want to go with a premium solution.
However, if you’re open to non-WordPress LMS solutions, jump down to the section on other SaaS/hosted LMS platforms.
