Best LMS for Captivate with GoDaddy Website???

We have used Moodle on GoDaddy for 14 years and now serve 4,000 K-12 students. We began with shared hosting but outgrew it in less than a year, so don't waste your time with the budget shared-hosting package. Their virtual dedicated packages (you can move up without migrating your site) served us through a lot of growth all the way up until three years ago at the end of the Moodle 1.9 version life cycle. We decided to move on up to a dedicated server when we moved to version 2.9 and this coming June we will move ahead to the version 3. It shouldn't be too hard to set up a Moodle instance on your server.

We have thousands of Captivate lessons that we have built, both as SCORM and SWF/HTML5 that we use both within the Moodle LMS and in our public files outside of it.

On the question of per course or subscription, likely the per course model will give you many more free turn-key types of Moodle plug-ins. Likely with a subscription model it will be a much more manual process to have to keep up with. You should still research it though. We are a donation supported project, so I haven't had a need to look deeply into it, so my knowledge only scratches the surface in the pay methods.

I would definitely join the community over at Moodle. It is very active and, usually, you can get a reply to a question quickly related to Moodle.

You may want to consider Adobe Captivate Prime. Certainly, it has to be the most compatible with Adobe Captivate projects (one would hope). What I like about Prime is that it scales as your needs increase. The basic price structure is $4 per month per learner with a minimum of 10 users so you can run prime for as little as $40 per month. Obviously, as your needs increase so does the price as well. If you are an organization that can reuse licenses i.e. when one learner moves on you can use that license for a new learner who comes on board, you can save that way. Prime is a cloud solution so there is no need to purchase a separate web service to simply act as a doorway to this LMS. Everything is hosted by Adobe and the Prime team can have you up and running within a day. Most importantly it offers great reporting options as well including level 1 and 3 evaluations (something many LMS miss).

Adobe Captivate Prime - Buying Guide

Hi Natalie, welcome!

I am a bit confused by the title, the website has no releation with the LMS which you would be using to manage access to the courses because the courses have to be uploaded to the LMS, not to the website. GoDaddy is a webhost. 

Moodle is a free LMS, for basic functionality it works OK. If you want to extend the functionality you'll need some expert to achieve that. LMS's can become very expensive. If you talk about a limited group, why not try out SCORM Cloud? 

Something that I think you may want to consider is the LMS is SCORM compliant.  Basically, Captivate (and other elearing authoring programs) communicate with an LMS through SCORM.  This allows you to to track learner data (quiz scores, slide progressions, clicks, etc.).

To me, that's the big advantage to an LMS over just hosting projects on a website.
