It was a long time ago. However, I do recall Taleo was one other product we looked at and we went with PageUp because the support was local to us in Melbourne, amongst other factors.

We explored a different learning management system with e3Learning (whom we already used) and this was found to be inadequate for our needs. We also assessed some bespoke, custom-built solutions, but the cost and ongoing development of those systems was prohibitive.

When at a previous company, I did a competitive process against SAP (SuccessFactors), PageUp, and PeopleStreme.

At another company, I just went directly with PageUp as I was really happy with the product, having already used it for seven years.

Other solutions looked at were NGA and Taleo.

I am not aware of other competing products.
