Interactyx Limited Launches Social Learning Addon Software for Existing Learning Management System Infrastructures

Interactyx Limited announces the launch of TOPYX Bolt™ which provides for the social learning elements of its award winning TOPYX® social learning management system (LMS) to existing, legacy LMSs. TOPYX Bolt will extend learning management systems by providing a seamless integration of award-winning social learning features that will allow learners to easily collaborate through public and private communities that TOPYX Bolt will provide.

TOPYX Bolt delivers the same award-winning social learning resources as the TOPYX social LMS, except it “bolts on” to an existing LMS infrastructure and facilitates enhanced social and informal learning throughout the enterprise. Learners can now have access to a series of social learning features, such as forums, chat, blogs, shoutboxes, polls and many other tools to be used for collaborative learning in (private or public) subject, course and content communities.

“The concept is genius. Pure genius.” said Craig Weiss, President, E-Learn Info Advisory Services.

Interactyx Limited is a leader in the eLearning software industry with its flagship learning platform TOPYX, which engages learners and provides collaborative learning environments for businesses, associations, academic departments and eCommerce needs of any sized organization. TOPYX was recently named by the Brandon Hall Group as the gold award winners for best advance in social learning technology and best advance in learning management for small- and medium- sized businesses, and the bronze winner for best advance in learning management for blended or informal learning.

“Companies are looking to incorporate social learning into their learning and development paradigm, yet not throw out their legacy LMS infrastructure. With TOPYX Bolt, we provide an addon that delivers award winning social learning resources to an organization’s existing LMS. An organization does not need to replace its legacy LMS in order to provide social learning tools learners are craving.” stated Alfred R. Novas, Chief Executive Officer of Interactyx Limited. “The need for enterprises to keep its existing workforce and the onboarding of new employees trained, productive and fully engaged, in our ever increasingly competitive world, has never been more important. We are very excited to launch TOPYX Bolt today and provide another affordable solution to enterprises wanting to benefit from social learning.”

TOPYX Bolt is designed to be an affordable, subscription based and easy to implement solution, which extends an enterprise’s learning and development delivery model with collaboration tools geared to further engaging the learner.

Time to Upgrade Those Smelly, Old, Expensive and Polluting LMSs

We know you are out there. Over 40% of those surveyed by ELearning! magazine recently intend to drop their current LMSs. Moreover, larger companies are looking to spend over $780,000 on the replacement.

In the movie The Graduate, Dustin Hoffman’s character was provided invaluable, brief advice: “Just one word – plastics.”

If you are one of those executives contemplating throwing out your old legacy clunker of an LMS – and you should, may I offer you similar sage advice “Just one word – SaaS.”

And given less than 10% of LMS owners are utilizing the SaaS model for LMSs right now and considering spending three-quarters of a millions dollars in this economic environment – there are a number of you staring at that number and not replacing the smelly old LMS that you know you should. This is also a no brainer for the 60% of US and 75% of UK companies (according to Bersin & Associates) that do not have LMSs.
We offer an LMS that exploits the current Web 2.0 technology, embraces social learning and offers a total cost of ownership at a significant fraction of $780,000 through our SaaS subscription model. If you want a 100% turnkey solution, we can do that as well.

We are also offering a free, two week installation program to get you up and running fast and painlessly. We launching a total outsourced eLearning program as well, so you do not even need to add staff – just improve the productivity of your team by training them better.

So do what you know is right… Improve your environment by tossing the legacy, costly LMS and drive away with a brand new social LMS that you will impact your favorability to plan in 2010.
