Indianapolis, Ind. – April 5, 2006 – ANGEL® Learning today announced the on schedule general availability of simply powerful ANGEL LMS 7. The highly anticipated new release of the ANGEL Learning Management Suite incorporates hundreds of customer enhancement suggestions and translates extensive input gathered through customer focus groups into customer-driven product innovations that meet the evolving technology needs of the educational community.
“They did it. They listened,” was the reaction of Nancy Edwards, director, faculty and course development, Florida Gulf Coast University and ANGEL 7 beta tester. FGCU licensed a competitive system before switching to ANGEL, “They never asked me what I wanted,” Edwards said, “ANGEL asked me what I wanted in the product, and they delivered on time.” Edwards was especially pleased to see the team view and discussion forum access enhancements FGCU requested in ANGEL 7. “The options for customized learning and accessibility are literally limitless and so easy to do.”
ANGEL’s commitment to openness as a company and in the development process drives consistent rigorous consultation with customers, focus groups and ongoing customer collaboration.
“We're very grateful for the tremendous response to the new ANGEL 7. It's really a triumph of our development model. We invite criticism and observation from our customers, and they really engage because they know we'll listen to them and shape the product around their comments,” said Ray Henderson, chief products officer, ANGEL Learning. “What's really fun is seeing the reaction from those who are used to competing products. The differences and benefits are clear from the first click.”
In ANGEL LMS 7, ANGEL Learning takes customer request response to a new level of LMS capability.
