COMPARE HOWSPACE TO AN LMS
Howspace vs. LMS– Managing training vs. enabling learning
Traditional LMS platforms focus on course management and tracking completion. But is that enough to drive real learning? Howspace brings your trainings to life with collaboration, real-time adaptability, and AI-powered insights–so training isn’t just something participants click through, it’s an engaging experience.

How is Howspace different from a traditional LMS?
LMS–Built for admin, not engagement
A learning management system (LMS) is designed to organize, manage, and track training programs. These platforms primarily focus on content delivery, self-paced courses, and compliance-based training. They help organizations standardize training but often lack the interactivity, engagement, and possibility to make changes on the go.

Howspace–Designed for impactful collaborative learning
Howspace is a collaborative learning platform that goes beyond course management. It embeds learning into the daily workflow enabling interactions, continuous peer-to-peer learning, and real-time adaptability.
With AI-powered insights, Howspace ensures that learning is not just completed but actively applied–driving long-term organizational change.
This makes Howspace a great fit for organizations focused on driving long-term, meaningful changes, such as —
Corporate Companies
Consulting & Training Services
Associations & Trade Unions

3 Reasons why 500K+ users choose Howspace for learning and training
Engagement that drives retention
Many LMS platforms rely on passive content consumption–employees click through courses, complete assessments, and move on. But real learning doesn’t happen in isolation.
Howspace creates an active, social learning environment where participants engage in discussions, share insights, and learn from and with their peers. This collaborative approach leads to deeper understanding, higher retention, and real-world application of knowledge.
A platform that grows with you
Traditional LMS platforms are built for structured, pre-set learning paths, making them rigid and difficult to adapt.
Howspace evolves with your organization’s needs. Whether you’re scaling leadership development, onboarding new employees, or launching global learning initiatives, Howspace allows you to adjust content, incorporate real-time insights, and keep learning programs dynamic–without the limitations of a one-size-fits-all system.
Designed for impact, not just compliance
LMS platforms are great for tracking course completions and compliance training, but they don’t always measure learning’s real impact.
Howspace shifts the focus from ticking boxes to driving meaningful change. By embedding learning into employees’ daily work, enabling collaboration and continuous discussions, Howspace supports cultural transformation and business innovation–ensuring learning leads to measurable results.
