ProProfs Training Maker

Overview

ProProfs Training Maker is a cloud LMS and course builder for employee training, compliance, and skills assessment. It best suits organizations that need both course-authoring tools and learner reporting, especially when they can use its ready-made library or standards support. Its broad training toolkit is balanced by a 10-learner free-plan cap and paid billing tied to active learners.

Key features

The AI Course Builder generates chapters, content, and structure from a topic description, while a library of more than 500 customizable expert-taught courses gives teams a second route to course material. That combination can help organizations build or adapt training without starting every course from scratch. Course creation and the interface support English, Spanish, and more than 70 other languages.

Assessment building, interactive content, responsive output, and certificates cover common training workflows. Reports track completions, scores, time spent, engagement, and learner activity, with downloadable reports for follow-up. The reporting breadth is useful for monitoring participation and results, though teams should weigh it against the learner limits on lower paid tiers.

For organizations connecting training to other systems, ProProfs supports SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, xAPI/TinCan imports, and API access. Integrations include BambooHR, isolved, Zoom, Salesforce, Dayforce HCM, WordPress, Mailchimp, and Microsoft Teams. SSO and two-factor authentication are supported. ProProfs says its service is GDPR-compliant and hosted on Amazon and IBM cloud infrastructure.

Pricing

The Free Plan costs 0.00 USD per free, is billed forever, and includes all features for up to 10 learners. It is a meaningful way to use the full feature set at small scale, but the cap makes it unsuitable for larger training programs.

Essentials costs 1.99 USD per month, billed $23.88 annually per learner per month, and allows up to 100 active learners. Business costs 3.99 USD per month, billed $47.88 annually per learner per month, with a 200-active-learner maximum. Both use per-active-learner monthly pricing; Business doubles the cap at a higher rate, while Essentials is the lower-cost fit for smaller paid deployments.

Business Complete Elite costs 4.98 USD per month, with annual plans only and a stated rate of $59.76 annually per learner. It supports unlimited learners, making it the clearest fit for organizations that would outgrow the 200-active-learner Business ceiling. The People Development Suite costs 499.00 USD per year, is billed $5988 annually, starts at $499 per month, and is available on annual plans only; it includes six tools and is a substantially broader commitment than the learner-priced LMS plans.

ProProfs also offers a free trial. Choose a plan with the active-learner basis and annual billing in mind rather than comparing only the monthly headline rates.

Platforms

The service is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows, with API access. Despite broad device support, there is no mobile app. Its mobile LMS is described as platform-independent and usable on Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac without additional software installation, which favors browser-based access over a dedicated app experience.

Who it's for

ProProfs is a strong fit for organizations training employees, customers, or partners that want assessments, certificates, learner tracking, and course options in one cloud service. Multilingual teams may benefit from its language support, while organizations using LMS standards or workplace integrations can connect training to existing workflows. Very small groups can stay on the free tier; larger teams should compare paid active-learner caps and annual terms carefully.

Pros and cons

• Pros: The free tier includes all features for up to 10 learners, so small teams can access the full toolkit without a paid plan.
• Pros: AI-assisted authoring and a library of 500+ customizable courses offer both generated and ready-made starting points.
• Pros: Detailed downloadable learner reports, certificates, assessment tools, SCORM and xAPI/TinCan support, and SSO suit structured training programs.
• Cons: The free tier stops at 10 learners, and paid Essentials and Business tiers cap active learners at 100 and 200 respectively.
• Cons: Paid learner plans are priced per active learner and billed annually, so headline monthly prices do not show the full commitment on their own.
• Cons: There is no mobile app, which may disappoint teams seeking a dedicated app rather than browser-based device access.

Verdict

Choose ProProfs Training Maker if you need a cloud LMS that combines course creation, a substantial course library, assessments, certificates, and reporting, with standards and integration support. Its main advantage is the range of training functions in one service; its main drawback is the small free cap and annual per-active-learner pricing. Teams that need a dedicated mobile app or want to avoid learner-based billing should look elsewhere.
