From the first commercial version of UpsideLMS, launched in 2007, to today in our version 11, we have evolved by leaps and bounds, including all must-have and good-to-have features needed in a Learning Management System today and tomorrow.

Here’s a quick roundup of the top 11 features in our recently released UpsideLMS version 11:
