NEO is a simple, powerful, cloud-hosted LMS for use by individual teachers, schools, districts, and universities. It is a freemium product, with a rich set of features in its free plan and additional "power" features in its low-cost premium plans. NEO makes it easy to deliver online education by providing features that are valuable in
the learning process and itโs a great solution for schools on a
tight budget who want to
upgrade from older technologies and adopt a no-compromise premium LMS. NEO LMS is a privately owned LLC based in San Francisco and was founded in 2007. The CEO and founder of NEO, Graham Glass, is a serial entrepreneur with a track record of innovation. Graham used to teach Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas, so deep familiarity with the features that teachers and students need is in our company DNA. Its sister company, MATRIX, also founded by Graham Glass in 2010, provides a similar product for use by businesses that want to deliver online training or make revenue by selling their courses. The NEO interface is a modern, responsive design that looks sharp and automatically adjusts based on the type of device. It provides attractive tile-based dashboards for students, teachers and administrators, a graphical class catalog, as well as simple pop-out navigation. Many features can be enabled or disabled to suit young children through to college students. NEO provides the range of functionality you'd expect in a modern LMS, such as support for classes (instructor led, blended, and self-paced), nine kinds of assignment, full-featured gradebook, question banks, class templates, rubrics, content authoring, beautiful lesson layouts, curricula and proficiencies, chat rooms, blogs, wikis, a customizable portal, e-portfolios, and more. NEO also supports many important industry standards such as SCORM, Common Cartridge Format, LTI, QTI and LDAP. And for those that wish to sell courses, NEO includes integrated e-commerce functionality.
