Balanita Manage, monthly service

Once your LMS is live, we look after it every month.

Balanita Manage is a monthly service that maintains, supports and improves your LMS after it goes live. It is not a ticket desk: we work on a schedule, without being asked, and send you a written review every month. You focus on training. We handle the system.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a minor change?

Anything that takes Balanita less than 30 minutes: adjusting a course sequence, updating a page section, reconfiguring an email trigger, adding a user role or group, or adding a short quiz. Anything larger is scoped and quoted first, and you approve it before we start.

Can Balanita manage an LMS someone else built?

Yes, after a free platform audit covering configuration, security, plugin health and learner data. If it meets our standard, the retainer starts the following month. If it needs fixing first, we scope and quote that work before we proceed.

What if we need more than one change a month?

Extra minor changes, or anything larger, are quoted separately. We estimate the time before we start, and you approve the quote before work begins.

What happens if we cancel before the 12-month minimum?

Cancelling early does not end your payment obligation for the remaining committed months. After the minimum term, cancellation needs 30 days written notice, with no penalty.

Does Manage cover our server?

No. Manage covers the LMS itself. Your server, on your own cloud account or hardware, is covered by Balanita Server Management, a separate service.

Built with Balanita Launch

The retainer starts at handover, with no audit needed.

Built by someone else

We run a free platform audit first, and take it on if it meets our standard.

Run by your team since Launch

A short re-audit checks the platform's health before we take it back.
