<DIV dir=3Dltr><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>We are using a commercial system=
called
Masterfile at our school which has generally been a pain in the
proverbial. I've tried convincing the IT manager to change to Moodle b=
ut
his main gripe appears to be about security. Have you had an issues wi=
th
security on Moodle? What have other schools experiences been with
Moodle? Is there a better commercial system that is actually affordabl=
e
(ie. not Blackboard). Any feedback on this would be greatly
appreciated.</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV>
