Abara LMS review
A feature-rich multi-portal LMS whose $400 starting price suits modest learner volumes.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Abara LMS is a cloud-based learning management system for corporate training, compliance programs, training companies, and extended-enterprise learning. It serves organizations managing employees, customers, partners, vendors, resellers, and other external learners through separate portals and workflows. Delivery options include eLearning, classroom, and virtual classroom training, while SCORM 1.2/2004 support, assessments, certificates, learning paths, reporting, and mobile learning cover common training requirements. It is available on web, iOS, and Android.
Pricing is positioned for organizations with modest learner volumes, but the entry point is substantial. The Starter plan is $400 per month or $4,000 per year, Growth is $600 per month or $6,000 per year, Large is $900 per month or $9,000 per year, and Advanced is $1,400 per month or $14,000 per year. The published plans identify each tier as a corporate LMS subscription. A 30-day free trial is available, and no card is required. With a 50-learner limit, Abara LMS is easier to justify for focused programs than for high-volume training operations.
Its strongest case is breadth across learning formats and audiences. Automated course assignment and visibility rules, assessment analytics, certification reports, multi-tenant architecture, and multi-portal deployment support structured programs across distinct learner groups. Integrations include ADFS, OneLogin, Duo, Okta, PingIdentity, PingOne, Azure, Zapier, Zoom, GoToMeeting, Skype for Business, and Fourth Hospitality HRIS. SSO, API access, and SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance are also listed. Choose Abara LMS when multi-portal delivery and blended learning matter more than low entry cost; organizations needing a lower-priced or higher-volume starting point should compare alternatives.
