Frequently asked questions
Is Canvas LMS open source?
Yes. The core of Canvas LMS is open source, so any institution can run it. The hard part is running it well: servers, updates, backups and security all take time and skill. ReachLMS does that work for you. We also add our own tools that open source Canvas doesn’t include, such as an analytics dashboard, Integrated Assignment Annotation and the ReachLMS mobile app.
What’s the difference between ReachLMS and Instructure Canvas?
ReachLMS is built on the same Canvas your teachers and students already know, so courses, grading and daily use work the same way. The difference is how you pay. A Dedicated ReachLMS instance has no per-user fee: you pay for the server your institution needs, not for every seat. Smaller programs can start on our Saver plan from $50 a month.
Is ReachLMS affiliated with Instructure?
No. ReachLMS is run by YouMultiply and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Instructure, Inc. We host and support open source Canvas on our own. Canvas LMS is a trademark of Instructure, Inc.
Who is ReachLMS for?
Any institution that wants first-rate tools at a fair price, faith-based or secular. We serve universities, colleges, seminaries, Bible colleges, private schools and training providers, from about 50 learners up to tens of thousands. Smaller institutions usually start on Saver or Premium, and larger ones run their own Dedicated instance.
Where is our data hosted, and who owns it?
Your institution owns its data. Saver and Premium run on servers in the United States. With a Dedicated instance, you choose where your data lives, from 13 data center locations across North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.*
*New York, San Francisco, Atlanta, Richmond, Kansas City, Memphis, Toronto, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Bangalore, Singapore and Sydney.
