Our approach
We offer clients some
tangible benefits
On every project, we use a unique mix of exclusive in-house tech, off-the-shelf LMS plugins, and elbow grease to make sure your platform specifically caters to your teaching model. Here’s how that benefits you.
Because we’re able to save countless hours of development using open-source software, we provide the flexibility of custom software more quickly than building from scratch. Sometimes we even remix our own work from past projects to build custom solutions in less time.
While we love building LMS platforms from the ground up, our team is just as comfortable tackling a one-off technical implementation, conducting ongoing maintenance, or even just helping answer a quick tech question. No matter the scope, we’ve got you covered.
We’ve sailed the e-learning waters long enough to know what works, what doesn’t and what’s out there in the LMS industry. We don’t just use our expertise to build solutions to spec, we take your overall business goals to heart and will often suggest changes of course to help not just your LMS succeed, but your business too.
We’ve honed our processes to turn our client work into sellable products. Not only does that mean we can give back to the online learning community, but it also allows our clients to benefit from ongoing development of their products without the maintenance costs.

Our clients
Don’t take our word for it
We’re proud of the work we do, but we’re even more gratified by the difference we’re able to make for our clients and for their learners. Let our clients’ commendations speak for themselves!
We have a lot of respect for Uncanny Owl so when they highly recommended Tangible, we were sold. Our first calls were confidence-inspiring and Tangible’s developers have been able to do in hours what would take me days, saving our small team tons of time and realizing cost savings. They’ve been able to customize the user experience in ways that our team simply couldn’t. Absolutely recommended to other LMS owners!
Before Tangible, we went through four developers who made changes without documenting their work and who weren’t able to address the complicated issues we were facing. Tangible has the right level of experience in LMS systems, communicates expectations clearly, and responds to concerns. They’ve allowed us to get sleep at night knowing we now have a functional site!
We’ve been completely satisfied with the services provided by Tangible! Since they started supporting our LMS, we’ve seen a dramatic decrease in issues with course completion. Tangible has super responsive customer service whenever we have a need!
I was initially hesitant due to the financial cost as we are a low-budget ministry, but Tangible’s quick responses and willingness to teach me and answer my questions have given me the skills to do some of the easier work myself. Any feature we have wanted to add or any bug we have run into Tangible has been able to handle. I ❤ Tangible.
All of the options for Wordpress are daunting, so it’s great to have people we can talk to about ideas and possibilities. I’ve enjoyed working with Tangible more than other agencies because the meetings feel more collaborative and the solutions are more out-of-the-box without requiring a lot of customization. The initial design of the website was a big success and I also appreciated the team’s responsiveness. Very pleased with everything.
Tangible has a great understanding of our needs, executes well, and delivers within our time requirements, exceptionally so when a situation is urgent. We needed support for the customization of LearnDash and Uncanny Owl addons and our experience with Tangible way surpasses that from our previous WP agency.
