* Licenses are activated by course when a learner access it for the first time. A course can hold up to 20 SCOs.
** A connected user is a learner who has launched one or multiple courses during the month, regardless of how many license they have.
*** Registrations are activated by SCO when a learner access it for the first time. If your course has multiple SCOs, you will pay one registration for each SCO.
Pricing approach
A different billing logic
scormPROXY is designed around real usage:
- Licenses activated during the previous month, or
- Connected users during the previous month.
This can be especially useful when course consumption varies by client, month or catalogue. You will also benefit from our pricing plans if you have courses with multiple resources or you bill your customers by users, not by courses.
