A cloud-free lock-in-free video course platform. Can be used to release any videos to your views, if not only courses. Managed by make.courses or self-hosted by the customer - upon request. Features also added upon customer request. Make.Courses was conceived because course creators wanted more control of the look & feel of their websites as well as the way videos & course material are released to the students. None of the existing platforms had the features our customers wanted, and so make.courses was conceived. Because it is a stand-alone platform and not one platform shared by all course creators lots of flexibility is possible. Also, the customer can always break away and manage the site & software how they see fit. This prevents the possibility of censorship, which is currently happening on many cloud platforms (as well as lock-in).

We're not interested in "scaling" but rather providing the right software so any serious course creator can scale themselves, and even more importantly: stay online for decades to come.

For those with a lot of course material ready, or those with a lot of social media followers to... Source: over 1 year ago
This underscores the most obvious difference to me, but as answered to MisterBazz above, I need to publish something specifically differentiating make.courses and LMSs soon: Https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Question-Forum/Canvas-Self-Hosted-Licensed/m-p/471128 It seems currently that they have a sort of up-sell where you can get started with the self-hosted version, but to get all of the features you...

Good question - we need to do a better job of differentiating make.courses from "LMSs" on our infosite. I will get back to you on a more detailed answer, but back when we began building make.courses we could not find any LMSs that could have hybrid drip feeding of videos and separately sell video modules within a single coherent student portal. Not to mention we were trying not to use PayPal, which I see Moodle... Source: over 1 year ago
We feel the internet is being increasingly consolidated into fewer powerful corporations and the customer is losing out. In the case of students trying to learn important material, we believe this is really crossing a line. We built make.courses for a friend who needed to guarantee his courses would stay online for decades rather than years - and who needed custom features that none of the cloud marketplace course...

I've been demoing this company's software for a course project for a while now and I felt the need to share. make.courses is a fledgling startup that has now surpassed feature parity with the likes of the popular cloud offerings of Udemy & Teachable. So far it can do everything I've seen in Udemy or Teachable, but its entirely self-hosted. The big difference is startup time (make.courses still requires... Source: over 1 year ago
