Abstract: Online learning management systems used in universities do not fulfill entirely user requests. In order to optimize the activity of students and professors, an educational platform should provide both features of content learning management and features of content management. In this paper, we selected for analysis the most representative learning management systems (LMS) and content management systems (CMS) on the market. We analyzed both products that require paid license and free products in order to identify the essential features of a LMS and a CMS. Based on the results, we identified a series of features that such systems should provide and we conclude if the ideal system for an educational platform dedicated to superior learning may be represented by an existing product or by a hybrid system.
