Introduction

This document is a detailed comparison between NEO and Edmodo, taking under consideration

the features, functionality, and cost of each platform.

NEO is a word-class, award-winning learning management system (LMS) for schools and

universities. NEO helps schools manage all classroom activities, such as creating and delivering

educational content, assessing students, tracking their results, and promoting communication

and collaboration between students and teachers/faculty. NEO is a product of CYPHER

LEARNING, a company that specializes in providing learning platforms for organizations around

the world.

Edmodo is a cloud-hosted “social learning platform” designed for K-12 audiences.

User interface

The NEO interface has 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. It

provides rich content authoring as well as a visually attractive way to create and organize lesson

material. NEO offers native mobile apps for iOS, Android and Windows.

The Edmodo interface is simple and resembles a Facebook page, from its color scheme to its

layout and notifications system. Its primary view is an activity feed, with rudimentary support for

content in the form of folders. Depending on each school’s individual needs, this can be either a

good or a bad thing since some organizations prefer to be able to customize their interface with

their own logo, color scheme, turn on/off different features, and more.

Ease of use

NEO is very intuitive and easy to use. In addition, it includes an online help center, with videos,

getting started guides, and searchable help content. NEO also has a rapid response support

forum where staff members typically respond to questions within 15-30 minutes during business

hours 24/5.

Edmodo is easy to use and includes a help center, tutorials and a support forum.

Features

NEO provides the range of functionality you'd expect in a modern LMS, such as support for

classes (instructor led, blended, self-paced, and micro learning), twelve kinds of assignments,

full-featured gradebook, content authoring, beautiful lesson layouts, gamification, automation,

learning paths, drip content, adaptive learning, mastery and competencies (including US

NEO supports many important industry standards such as SCORM, Common Cartridge Format,

LTI, QTI and LDAP. We also integrate with a wide variety of systems, including Google Drive, G

Suite, Office 365, OneDrive, Calendars (iCal), Turnitin, Zapier, GoToMeeting, Zoom, WebEx, SIS,

Equella, and more.

Edmodo provides activity feeds, with features that allows teachers to create groups for their

students, share posts, documents, and simple assignments.

It includes a rudimentary grade book and badges for students. Edmodo also has the Snapshot

tool, their system for quizzing common core proficiencies and Spotlight - a center for uploading

and sharing teaching resources (still in beta mode). However, Edmodo lacks a built-in authoring

tool, powerful gamification, automation, among other important features.

Cost

NEO has a free plan and charges about $6 per student per year for its Small school plan and $7

per student per year for its Enterprise plan. There are no setup fees, cancellation fees, storage

fees, bandwidth fees, support fees, or other hidden costs.

Note that these prices cannot be simply compared, since the NEO Small school and Enterprise

plans contain a great amount of functionality that is not provided by Edmodo. For example, a

larger school would normally require features such as a full-featured gradebook, a wide selection

of assignment types, rubrics, built-in content authoring, support for self-paced classes, SCORM

integration, advanced reporting and analytics, etc. and would most likely also need to purchase

an LMS.

Edmodo has a free plan and charges around $2,500 per year for schools as part of their premium

plan. There is an additional charge for items such as Edmodo Sync or Edmodo Training.

Summary

www.neolms.com

This was a comparison of the most important features between NEO and Edmodo.

Schools that adopt NEO as their LMS get an all-in-one integrated solution. Edmodo functions

more like a social networking website for a K-12 audience which could be a downside for

schools that require a more powerful LMS. While both systems offer a free plan, NEO includes

many more features at the free and premium plan level. If you require additional information on

NEO, please contact us at [email protected].
