Comparing Intellum
vs. Docebo

Both platforms support enterprise learning, but only Intellum delivers enterprise capabilities out of the box. Docebo customers often report difficulty scaling complex programs, needing to buy additional modules as they grow, and relying on heavy customization to make global learning work.

vs

Docebo and Intellum both support enterprise learning, but they take very different approaches. Docebo’s modular, add-on-based LMS often requires paid extensions and integrations to scale, and its AI is bolted on.

Intellum takes a
modern, unified approach.

Content creation, delivery, engagement, analytics, and native AI all operate on a single platform. Because Intellum is rebuilding its platform from the ground up for AI, organizations can launch and scale learning that’s smarter, faster, and more impactful.

Why Teams Choose
Intellum over Docebo

1

Purpose-Built for Business Outcomes

Docebo helps you manage learning programs. Intellum helps you change behavior with a unified platform designed around learner performance improvement, not just content delivery.

2

Unified Platform

Docebo relies on modules and paid add-ons to expand functionality. Intellum delivers everything (authoring, engagement, delivery, and analytics) in one complete platform, reducing long-term cost and complexity and increasing efficiency.

3

Designed to Support Both Internal & External Audiences

Intellum is built to deliver branded, scalable learning experiences across internal, customer, and partner audiences. Docebo can support external audiences, but its architecture is not built for large, complex external programs.

4

Better Learner Experience → Better Results

Intellum prioritizes intuitive design, personalized pathways, and engagement tools that keep learners moving. Docebo offers a modern look, but because modules are stitched together rather than being part of a single cohesive system, external users encounter friction depending on the configuration.

5

AI-Powered Performance Insights

Intellum’s analytics tie learning directly to revenue, retention, productivity, and other business KPIs. Docebo provides strong reporting, but often requires additional modules for advanced insights.

Migration &
Onboarding

You don’t want to do a migration. We get it. But the real risk is staying on a legacy platform that can’t support your growth.

At Intellum, we’ve helped hundreds of teams move off legacy LMS platforms—without chaos. Our expert team, proven playbook, and white-glove support make the process simple, fast, and stress-free.

Migrating an academy is no small undertaking. Not only do you have to ensure all of your content is migrated over, you also have to consistently communicate with learners, confirm all integrations are properly set up, and myriad other tasks. Intellum's migration team took us through the process step by step, and we launched to a big spike in learner numbers and engagement.
