Note: elearninfo247.com now lives here. Craig Weiss’s blog, rankings, and analysis have moved to FindAnLMS. Older posts are still being migrated. Learn more.
FindAnLMS gets you to a credible set of options in fifteen minutes. For most buyers that is the whole job. Some selections carry more weight than a platform tool can carry alone: a global rollout, a replacement after a failed implementation, a system serving customer education and internal L&D at once, a board that wants defensible reasoning behind a six-figure commitment.
That is where Craig Weiss works directly.
Build the shortlist around your requirements, not a vendor list. Craig starts with audience size, verticals, compliance obligations, integration realities, admin capacity, and what your team can support after go-live. You get a ranked shortlist with the reasoning attached, including why specific well-known systems were cut.
Write an RFP that vendors answer differently. Most LMS RFPs come from a template and ask vendors to confirm capabilities every vendor has. Eighty responses come back saying yes. Craig builds RFPs around the questions that separate one system from another.
Take control of the demo. Vendors run the demo unless you take it from them. Craig prepares the scenarios your team should require the vendor to execute live, on your data and your workflows, so you watch the platform do your job instead of a rehearsed one.
Pressure-test your finalists before you commit. You have a shortlist and an internal favorite, and you want an independent read. Craig scores the finalists against your requirements and tells you where the consensus choice will strain. This is his least expensive engagement and frequently his highest return.
Separate real AI from marketing AI. Nearly every vendor now claims AI capability, and those claims run from substantive to cosmetic. Craig assesses what a system’s AI does, what it demands from your content and data to function, and whether it solves a problem you have.
Craig also advises learning technology providers on product direction, competitive positioning, market entry, and transaction readiness. He discloses that work rather than hiding it, and it is why his buyer guidance carries the detail it does. Reading roadmaps across the vendor field tells you which capabilities ship next quarter and which have been eighteen months out for three years running. No feature matrix will tell you that.
Craig has evaluated the global learning systems field every year for over fifteen years, in some years scoring more than a thousand platforms to produce the Top 50 rankings. Independent industry rankings have named him the most influential person in the world for learning systems.
Before any of that, he was a corporate training director who selected and lived with learning systems himself. He knows which decisions look reasonable during the evaluation and painful in year two.
He works your engagement personally. You are not handed to an associate after the sales call.
Sometimes the answer is that FindAnLMS and the RFP template are enough, and Craig will tell you so.

We’ve consolidated everything into one site. The blog, the independent LMS rankings, and the directory now live together at findanlms.com rather than being spread across separate domains. We will continue to produce the same great content, but with a new place to call home.
