Affordable SMB LMS at $89-$459/month.

By Epignosis (TalentLMS) · Founded 2012 · San Francisco, CA · private

TalentLMS is the affordable SMB LMS, founded 2012 by Greek company Epignosis. The product covers core LMS + content authoring + reporting at meaningfully lower price than Cornerstone/Docebo. Strengths: affordable SMB pricing ($89-$459/mo for unlimited users with subscription tiers), strong fit for SMBs without dedicated L&D teams, modern UX, and TalentCraft AI for content authoring. Best fit for SMBs (50-1,000 employees) wanting LMS without enterprise complexity. Trade-offs: feature depth below Cornerstone/Docebo (no advanced compliance, less mature skills graph), Support depends on tier, and enterprise scaling absent.
