### "ILIAS - Multifunktional" — 5.0/5

> **Denis** | *April 11, 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ILIAS ist extrem vielfältig und bietet für viele verschiedene Lernanlässe die passenden Tools und das On Premise und somit unter eigener Datenhohheit.
> 
> **Cons**: Der Einstieg ist aufgrund der großen Vielfalt recht komplex. Man muss am Ball bleiben und braucht genügend Personal, welches sich damit auskennt.
> 
> Wir sind sehr begeistert von ILIAS und auch der Möglichkeit uns selbst in die Entwicklung einzubringen.

### "Self-paced learning system with authoring tools" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *December 5, 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The authoring tool provides everything you need for the management of content directly on the platform. You can create user groups to enhance internal networking and transform video tutorials into effective online learning courses. It also provides features for organizing and managing tests and evaluations on courses with final certification for users following a self-paced learning course.
> 
> **Cons**: If you can read German, then you have lots of documentation. Not everything is translated. When users edit a competence profile, it is difficult for them to keep track of their progress. and they have no means to know when they have fulfilled a profile. Sometimes the PDF generated has errors.

### "ILIAS Lernmanagementsystem" — 4.0/5

> **Christian** | *July 5, 2024* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Die Anzahl der Lernmöglichkeiten, die flexible Anpassbarkeit, die Kurs- und Lernverwaltung, das Rollen- und Rechtemanagement, die umfangreichen Module zur Durchführung von Prüfungen.
> 
> **Cons**: Die Bedienung ist stellenweise zu komplex und kann Nutzer überfordern.
> 
> Wir nutzen ILIAS an der katho seit über zwölf Jahren, die Plattform hat sich als Standard für Lehrangebote etabliert. ILIAS stellt einen Kern an relevanten Funktionen zur Verfügung, weitere Software (Videotelefonie, Plagiatscan etc.) integrieren wir laufend mithilfe von Plugins. Insgesamt ein hochflexibles und empfehlenswertes System.
