Boima was developed for academic institutions that are interested in offering online degree programs but cannot afford the high cost of other systems. Boima offers academic analytics with features that enable colleges and universities to become competitive in the online learning marketplace. The system is modular and subscription-based; so, institutions can subscribe to the service that fits their budget and nothing more. The pricing plans are flexible, and a fraction of what other online learning systems charge. With Boima, no long-term commitment is necessary, institutions can subscribe to use the system for one semester or several academic years.
