Salary benchmarks
Our take
Managing the upskilling processes, engagement levels, and performance insights of employees is essential to successfully scale a workforce, with various platforms existing to tackle each individual problem. However, the siloed nature of these platforms makes for a convoluted process that prevents a holistic understanding of workforce management, presenting a demand for a more unified solution.
Totara provides an all-in-one software platform for L&D, providing solutions for enterprises across desktop software, mobile applications, product extensions and integrations, and cloud applications. The platform is split into three interconnected toolsets - TotaraLearn for learning management and upskilling, TotaraEngage for uniting collaborative workforces, and TotaraPerform for the analysis, management, and actionable insights.
Despite strong competition in the L&D space, Totara continues to stand out by recognizing how deeply connected education, engagement, and productivity really are. The platform's new AI features, including OpenAI-powered content support, help teams learn smarter and collaborate effectively. With over 20M users in 140 countries and a major investment from growth equity firm Ternzing in late 2023, Totara is in a good position to keep innovating and leading the charge in workforce development.
