When we looked at the difference it was the sheer cost that we tried to
justify, given Moodle works from a quick download and install. Plus the
political issues at the time surrounding Blackboard's patent claims put us
off even more.
The other benefit is that Moodle is so easily customisable. I'd love to see
all of education move to Open Source where possible on the desktops -
especially ubuntu.

If you are looking to upgrade to the enterprise version of blackboard where
does the comparison with moodle fit in? Surely you should be looking at the
additional features that blacboard enterprise offers and justifying those.
I am confused

Subject: [VLES] Blackboard v Moodle
Hi all,
Has anyone made a comparison between the above 2 VLE systems?
We currently use Blackboard basic and need to justify upgrading to
Blackboard Enterprise.
I'd appreciate any thoughts/research from other users.
Thanks from Carshalton College.
