Lower Risk and Lower Cost

MacroVOLT offers competitive advantages to organizations or companies that aren’t yet ready to commit large amounts of money to online learning. It’s also a perfect fit for those who want to offer e-learning but aren’t yet sure how many students they will have accessing their courses. Per- student costs for MacroVOLT courses are substantially less than other major online learning systems.

Most other e-learning systems require you to commit to a certain number of students and pay large upfront costs to get started. Unless you can commit to paying for a large number of students, you will be charged a premium for a smaller number of students. MacroVOLT charges the same per-student cost regardless of how many students you have. Therefore, there is no risk of not meeting pre-set student levels. MacroVOLT only charges a small affiliate registration fee and allows you to get started without the large financial commitment that other systems require.

MacroVOLT does not charge an annual license fee. Most other e-learning systems charge a significant annual license fee for using their software. MacroVOLT courses are hosted centrally on Macro’s servers at no additional charge, while other e-learning systems provide hosting at a substantial additional charge.

How does MacroVOLT compare to the competition?

 

Better Suited For Many Organizations

Free Hosting
While many other products require you to provide your own server and database, MacroVOLT courses are centrally hosted on our servers and maintained by our staff.

No Technical Staff Required
Some competing products require technical staff to install and maintain software, but MacroVOLT does not require you to have staff with technical expertise. If you can surf the Internet and use a word processing program such as Microsoft Word, then you are ready to use this intuitive, user-friendly system.

Custom Courses
MacroVOLT allows you to create custom courses on any subject at any time, while some e-learning providers require you to use their pre-set catalog of courses.

Entirely Web-Based
MacroVOLT is entirely Web based and can be accessed by students, developers, instructors, and administrators at any time from anywhere. Other e-learning products may require you to develop courses on a specified local machine before they can be uploaded to the Internet.

Turn-Key Solution
MacroVOLT is a one-vendor, turn-key solution that requires the purchase of only one product, while many other e-learning vendors require you to purchase multiple modules or systems to deliver your courses online.
