Some infrastructures use virtual environments to partition tenants while others use custom software architectures.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>The benefits most often cited from an IT perspective:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1. <strong>Simplicity<\/strong> &#8211; All users are operating on the same database, OS, and version<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">2. <strong>Cost savings<\/strong> &#8211; Provisioning, maintenance, systems management, trouble shooting<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">3.<strong> Reliability<\/strong> &#8211; Less variables in the architecture and standardization creates a more reliable environment.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For companies with an extended enterprise or workforce that includes resellers, channel or business partners the benefits of using a multi-tenant LMS are numerous. With a multi-tenant environment each partner can have their own unique LMS environment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1835\" src=\"https:\/\/stagingps.paradisosolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/crmlmsmt.png\" alt=\"crmlmsmt\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Benefits and\u00a0Advantages of Salesforce and embedded LMS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rapidly train customers and partners on new product roll-outs<\/li>\n<li>Track compliance<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"display: inline !important;\">Partner certification<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Reduce support costs<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Most often overlooked, and not discussed is how using a multi-tenant LMS environment can create a profit-center by selling training to customers and partners. \u00a0When an IT investment is made, if a business case can be made that a solution can not only reduce cost, but also can increase revenue it is a compelling argument for decision makers. \u00a0By adding e-commerce functionality, you can expand your LMS beyond the traditional \u201cin-house\u201d training and learning platform.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style>\n#content_wrapper .inner .inner_wrapper .sidebar_content {width:96% !important;max-width:none !important;}<br \/><\/style>\n\n<div class=\"wpcf7 no-js\" id=\"wpcf7-f7169-o1\" lang=\"en-US\" dir=\"ltr\" data-wpcf7-id=\"7169\">\n<div class=\"screen-reader-response\"><p role=\"status\" aria-live=\"polite\" aria-atomic=\"true\"><\/p> <ul><\/ul><\/div>\n<form action=\"\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1834#wpcf7-f7169-o1\" method=\"post\" class=\"wpcf7-form init\" aria-label=\"Contact form\" novalidate=\"novalidate\" data-status=\"init\">\n<fieldset class=\"hidden-fields-container\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7\" value=\"7169\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_version\" value=\"6.1\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_locale\" value=\"en_US\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_unit_tag\" value=\"wpcf7-f7169-o1\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_container_post\" value=\"0\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_posted_data_hash\" value=\"\" \/>\n<\/fieldset>\n<div class=\"as_blog_form inlinecf\">\n\t<h3>Get in touch to avail some awesome eLearning services!\n\t<\/h3>\n\t<div class=\"as_blog_row\">\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><label class=\"inlinelable\">First Name *<\/label><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"firstname\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required txtsize\" id=\"fname\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"text\" name=\"firstname\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><label  class=\"inlinelable\">Last Name *<\/label><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"lastname\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required txtsize\" id=\"lname\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"text\" name=\"lastname\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><label class=\"inlinelable\">Company Name*<\/label><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"companyname\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required\" id=\"email\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"text\" name=\"companyname\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><label class=\"inlinelable\">Contact Number *<\/label><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"phoneno\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"15\" minlength=\"10\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-tel wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-tel\" id=\"phone\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"tel\" name=\"phoneno\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><label class=\"inlinelable\">Email Id *<\/label><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"emailid\"><input size=\"40\" maxlength=\"400\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-email wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-email\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" value=\"\" type=\"email\" name=\"emailid\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"as_b_box\">\n\t\t\t<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap\" data-name=\"spam-quiz\"><label><span class=\"wpcf7-quiz-label\">What is 8 -
