Moodlerooms provides enterprise version, service, support, and hosting for the most recent versions of Moodle open source software, which has over 39M downloads. Moodle is the world's most widely used open-source learning management system.
Blackboard acquired Moodlerooms in 2012 together with another Moodle Partner, NetSpot, and hired the leader of another open source community, Sakai, to form the basis of their Open Source Services group in March of 2012. The strategic acquisition expanded Blackboard’s offerings to include open source alternatives providing customers with choices that were previously unavailable.
