LMS Pricing Index 2026: what 53 platforms cost for 100 users

What does an LMS actually cost for 100 users? We went through the pricing pages of 53 platforms and worked it out for each one. 17 print enough to answer the question. 30 print no price at all. The numbers are below, cheapest first, each with the vendor's own wording and a link to the page it came from.

$94a month is the typical price for 100 users on an annual plan, among the 17 vendors that print one.*
75×between the cheapest and the most expensive at 100 users: $16.58 to $1,250 a month. 9 of the 17 come in under $100.
57%of vendors print no price at all (30 of 53). That covers 5 of the 7 enterprise suites, 5 of the 7 certification platforms and 10 of the 12 association platforms (the exceptions: MyPass, ours and Oasis LMS).
12of 53 have a plan that costs nothing: MyPass (ours), Canvas, Google Classroom, LearnPress, Moodle, TalentLMS, Tutor LMS, plus 5 open-source projects you host yourself. Only 3 of 53 say whether a setup fee applies.

What 100 users costs per month, billed annually*

Cheapest first. A flat plan is shown as printed; a per-user rate is multiplied by 100. Three vendors (LearnWorlds, Teachable, Podia) have a cheap plan that charges extra on every enrolment or sale, so we used their next plan up, the one without the surcharge. The table has the vendor's own wording and the link for every row.

* These are our calculations from what each vendor had on its pricing page on 24 October 2026: the cheapest plan that covers that many users, per month on annual billing where it's offered, or the per-user rate times 100. They are not quotes. What a vendor actually offers you can be quite different once you're talking to them: term length, add-ons, implementation fees and plain negotiation all move the number, and list prices change without notice. Card-processing fees (Stripe, PayPal, around 2.9% + 30¢) hit every vendor that sells courses and are left out. Tutor LMS is a WordPress plugin; you still need hosting.

Who prints a price, by segment

Course-creator and small-business platforms show their prices. Enterprise, certification and association platforms almost never do: their pricing pages explain how a quote is built and end in a demo form. A vendor that sells into more than one segment is counted in each, so the bars add up to more than 53. The priced vendors are named first on each bar. Hover or tap a bar for the names.

Free to use (12): MyPass (ours), Canvas, Google Classroom, LearnPress, Moodle, TalentLMS, Tutor LMS have a plan at $0, and Chamilo, ILIAS, Open edX, OpenOlat, Sakai are open-source software you install yourself. The open-source five sit in the quote-only count because hosting and support come from the project or its partners on a quote.

How we did it

  • We started from the 59 platforms in our LMS buyers' guide, the products an association, a training company or a mid-sized employer would realistically shortlist, and kept the 53 we could check. Left out: Path LMS (pricing page would not load when checked); TopClass LMS (now sold as Forj LMS, which is already in the index); eLogic Learning (no vendor site: domain is for sale; the product went to Absorb in 2019); Learn Amp (pricing page would not load when checked); Peerless LMS (pricing page would not load when checked); Lightbulb VLE (pricing page would not load when checked).
  • Segments are the markets each vendor's own site says it sells to, so a product like Docebo or D2L sits in more than one. Ours is listed under association, corporate, certification, customer education, course selling and enterprise: the first five are markets kprise.com has a page for, the last is the self-hosted Enterprise edition sold on an annual contract.
  • Every number comes from the vendor's own pricing page as it stood on 24 October 2026. We didn't use Capterra, G2 or anyone else's estimate, because those are often years old and rarely say where the number came from.
  • Yearly prices are divided by twelve. Where a page shows a monthly and an annual price, we took the annual one. A worked example on a vendor's page ("for example, $7.70 per user") doesn't count as a price. Prices in other currencies stay in that currency and stay out of the ranking.
  • Several products changed owners this year (Northpass and Skilljar now sit under Gainsight, WorkRamp under Confirm, Learn Amp under Cezanne, eLogic under Absorb). We recorded whatever the live site says now.
  • We sell one of these products. MyPass LMS is in the table on the same terms as everyone else, taken from our public pricing page, and flagged "(ours)" so you can discount it if you want to.

Questions people ask us

How much does an LMS cost for 100 users?

Anywhere from $16.58 to $1,250 a month on an annual plan, going by the 17 vendors that print a price. The middle of that range is $94. 9 of them are under $100, and those are nearly all flat plans where 100 users costs the same as 10. Once you are on a per-user rate, 100 users costs $119 to $1,250 a month.

Why do most LMS vendors not publish prices?

30 of the 53 we checked print nothing. The pricing page explains that the price depends on which edition you pick and how many active users you have, and ends in a demo form. It splits cleanly by market: platforms sold to course creators show their prices, platforms sold to enterprises, certification bodies and associations do not.

Which LMS platforms have a free plan?

12 of the 53 have a plan that costs nothing: MyPass LMS (ours, the self-hosted Community Edition), Canvas, Google Classroom, LearnPress, Moodle, TalentLMS, Tutor LMS. The other 5 (Chamilo, ILIAS, Open edX, OpenOlat, Sakai) are open-source software you install and run yourself. A free plan is not a free LMS: most cap users or courses, or leave you paying for hosting, so check the limits before you build on one.
