What is a cloud-based LMS?
A cloud LMS (cloud-based Learning Management System) is training software hosted and maintained by the provider on secure remote servers - in AlphaLearn's case, AWS Mumbai. You access it through any browser or mobile app. No installation, no hardware, no IT overhead.
The terms "cloud LMS," "cloud-based LMS," and "SaaS LMS" all mean the same thing: the platform is managed for you. Updates, backups, security patches, and uptime are the provider's responsibility - your team focuses entirely on training.
