A user is any account on your LMS which includes site managers, course instructors and members (students). Pluto LMS support staff are not counted against your user count.
A “User” is defined as the total amount of users on your site with a profile (i.e registered). This is not active users, but rather users who have information stored on the system (such as course enrolments, progress and other useful learning data). Email info@plutolms.com if you require an active user plan.

Yes, we do support SCORM 1.2. We are also able to sync your SCORM results with our LMS.

Server
We have a very lightweight LMS so requiring more than our standard storage offering is very unlikely unless you are uploading an excessive amount of large video files.
Option 1 (Recommended): We highly recommend hosting your video content on the likes of YouTube or Vimeo to save on storage space. Vimeo offers extensive privacy options to protect your video content so that it’s only viewable through Pluto LMS.
Option 2: We have add-on options to upgrade your server. Currently our largest server size is 3480GB.
Option 3: Use AWS S3 Buckets to host external content (Service not provided by Pluto LMS).
Feel free to checkout our security page for more information.
We have never reported less than 99% as we rely on premium 3rd party server providers. Learn more about our uptime here.
