Advance notice of the fee structure with the addition of the new feature "Upgrade in the middle of the contract period" from Ver2.13.

Important Notice Various upgrades will be available during the contract period starting with the version upgrade to Ver. 2.13 series scheduled around January 2021. This is an advance notice of the fee structure for upgrading in the middle of the contract period in conjunction with the addition of this functionality. This is an advance notice because of the importance of the fee structure. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Please be assured that there will be no change to the existing fee structure for contracts from free to paid plans and for renewal of paid plans. (This explanation is only for the case of upgrading in the middle of the contract period.) (This is only an explanation for upgrading in the middle of the contract period.) *From Ver. 2.12, the function to add only the number of users via the web is already supported for upgrading in the middle of the contract period. The fee structure for Ver. 2.12 may be more economical than Ver. 2.13, depending on the applicable period for adding the number of users. (Depending on the contents of your contract, we may not be able to accommodate your request via the web.) Click here for Table of Contents 1. what does "upgrade in the middle of the contract term" mean? 2. 4 types of mid-contract upgrades are available 3. notes on fee structure 4. other remarks What does "upgrade in the middle of the contract term" mean? For example, have you ever done this? We need to use learningBOX in other departments at a moment's notice, and the number of accounts we have now is not enough. We are using more and more videos in our teaching materials, and we are running out of space if we stay on the starter plan. There was an urgent request from within the company for an LMS with an original design. In order to respond to these requests, we have added a new feature that allows customers to add more users or upgrade their licenses even in the middle of the contract period, without calling us. If you have any of the problems listed above, we hope you will consider this feature. In addition, we are available for upgrades by phone or email. Please feel free to contact us. (Please note that we may not be able to support your request depending on the contents of your contract or combination of contracts. Please understand in advance.) Four types of upgrades are available during the contract period The following four types of items are supported by this new functionality for upgrading during the contract period. Increase the number of users Upgrade the license (from Starter to Standard) Upgrade both the number of people and the license Add various options *This is for customers who are already using a paid plan. (The "paid plan" referred to here refers to the state of being on a paid plan for a learningBOX license; a contract for a QuizGenerator license only does not refer to a "paid plan.) *This may not be possible depending on the combination of license types and optional contracts. Please understand this beforehand. Notes on the fee structure Please be aware of the following items in connection with the functional modification from Ver. 2.13. If you are using an annual contract and add or upgrade in the middle of the contract, the monthly contract unit price may be applied (depending on the period when the change is applied). Please see the table below first. The table summarizes the fees for annual and monthly contracts. The numbers in red are the amounts for one year, which are used as the basis for the calculation. (Taxes are not included). In the case of ▼License only Currently annual contract, but monthly contract unit price will be applied at the time of upgrade. If you are currently on an annual contract (e.g., Starter/Standard), and you wish to add additional users, depending on the details and conditions (e.g., you only wish to add users for 3 months before the contract renewal), the monthly unit price will be applied to the bill for the additional users, instead of the annual unit price. Calculation example 1) I want to change from annual starter 100 to starter 200 in the middle of the contract period (contract period remains unchanged). The payment amount in Calculation Example 1 is calculated as follows Monthly per year ÷ 365 (pro-rated daily) × Number of days remaining 60,000 ÷ 365 × 171 days = 28,109.58904 ⇒ 28,109 yen *"Per year of monthly amount" is, for example, 60,000 yen, which is equivalent to 12 months of the Starter Plan's monthly contract unit price: 5,000 yen (excluding tax). *In this case, since the applicable period is less than one year, the monthly unit price is applied. The actual amount to be billed will be the monthly unit price plus consumption tax. The decimal point will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The monthly unit price may seem expensive. Therefore, we have prepared a mitigation measure. (Relaxation measure) In the case of an annual contract, the annual contract unit price will be applied even when the number of users is added. Important】The fee calculation method will be changed from March 8, 2021. Click here for details. If you select "1 year" for "Period for which the change will be applied," the annual unit price will be applied. (Calculation Example 2) I want to change from annual starter 100 to starter 200 in the middle of a new year. The payment amount in Calculation Example 2 is calculated by the following calculation. (Contract amount of the new plan to be used from the day of upgrade to the next renewal date) - (pro-rated amount of the unused portion of the old plan as the annual unit price) = billed amount Let us explain an example of the above calculation. (Contract amount of the new plan to be used from the upgrade date to the next renewal date): June 1, 2020 - May 31, 2021 ⇒ Starter 200 (1 year): 60,000 yen (pro-rated amount of the old plan for unused portion as annual unit price): June 1, 2020 - November 18, 2020 ⇒30,000 ÷ 365 × 171 days = 14,054.7945 ⇒ 14,054 yen (per year ÷ daily rate × number of days remaining =) (Contract amount of the new plan to be used from the day of upgrade to the next renewal date) - (pro-rated amount of the unused portion of the old plan as the annual unit price) = billed amount 60,000 yen - 14,054 yen = 45,946 yen In this case, the annual unit price is applied because the applicable period is one year. The actual amount to be billed will be the amount shown here plus consumption tax. *Figures are rounded down to the nearest whole number. Other points to note If you have a contract for options (e.g., hosting/design customization), depending on the status of the option contract, the "period during which changes are applied" you can choose from may be limited, and the annual unit price may not be applied. Please refer to this table for details. ▼ Example: Adding only the number of people in the middle of the contract term Selection of the period to apply the current contract changeControl itemsBilling rate (based on unit price)Annual contractContract end date does not changeApply monthly unit price*If you have subscribed to an option, you can only select "No change in contract period "Update contract period to new annual period (select 1 year)Annual Apply a monthly unit price without changing the end date of the contract. (Select "1 month to 11 months".) If 1 month to 11 months, apply the monthly unit price. Other remarks This feature is currently under development and verification, so the specifications may be subject to change. The fee structure announced this time may also be subject to change. In that case, we will inform you separately. Details of the upgrade function will be introduced at the time of the 2.13 release. We will inform you of the upgrade schedule for the Ver2.13 series as soon as the schedule is determined. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us using the inquiry form.

Important Notice The mail template function will be modified for easier use in the 2.13 series version upgrade scheduled around January 2021. This is an advance notice to all current users of learningBOX to be prepared for the modification of this function.

Change : Default mail template will be changed + Default footer template will be automatically registered Subject: Emails for which the default template has not been changed If the template has been changed, it will not be applied unless it is set to the default setting. If you have previously changed the default email template, the change will not be applied. If you have previously changed the default email template, the change will not be applied. (The new email template we have prepared for Ver. 2.13 may not be optimal for customers who are already using the system, so there will be no change to the emails of customers who have changed their default email template). If you have never changed your default email template, please check and adjust the new email template as necessary. Please note, this is for customers who have never changed their default email template. For example, in the grade management notification emails, the email template used to not display grades and scores to learners, but with this modification, grades and scores will also be displayed in the new default email template.

The default_footer footer template is editable, but you cannot rename it or delete the template. Changes to this footer template will be reflected as a footer in all default email templates. It can also be inserted into customized mail templates as a {default_footer} label. For customers who have already changed their default email template *The automatic registration of multiple customized email templates for invitation and grade management notifications is only available for new owners who have started using learningBOX for the first time after Ver. 2.13. This does not apply to existing administrators, as there may be some administrators for whom automatic registration is not convenient. Therefore, if you would like to add more types of new email templates, you will need to add them yourself in the system. Detailed specifications We plan to introduce a page on how to use this feature when 2.13 is released, and will announce the scheduled upgrade date of 2.13 as soon as it is finalized.

[Important] From version 2.12, the report function was modified.

Important】The report assignment function will be changed from Ver. 2.12 of learningBOX. Thank you for using learningBOX, our e-learning creation system. My name is Kidaoka, and I am in charge of marketing! Today, we have an important announcement for our customers. Please take a moment to read this announcement if you are currently using the report function in learningBOX. This page introduces the changes that will be made to the report function in the next version of learningBOX. In the previous version of learningBOX, once a report was submitted and graded as pass/fail, it was not marked as awaiting grading on the learning screen and could be submitted as many times as needed, even if it was resubmitted. Starting with version 2.12 of learningBOX, content creators will be able to set whether or not to allow learners to resubmit reports after they have submitted them. For customers using the learningBOX shared server When the version of learningBOX is upgraded to 2.12, the system will automatically switch to the latest functions even if no settings are made by the customer. Therefore, when editing report materials that were created and edited before the version upgrade after the upgrade, the visual design and setting methods may differ from the previous usage. ⚠The report submission method will change. Prior to version 2.12 of learningBOX, learners could choose to submit their assignments by either "web input/file upload" or both, and learners could only submit their report assignments by one of "web input/attach file". Ver. 2.12 and later, both can be sent at the same time. Report Assignment Settings (Ver. 2.12 or earlier) ▼Report Assignment Submission Screen (Ver. 2.12 or earlier) ▼Report Assignment Submission Screen (Ver. 2.12 or later) ⚠The method for resubmitting reports will change. Prior to version 2.12 of learningBOX, it was possible to resubmit a report by clicking on the name of the course material in the report list. However, in version 2.12 and later, only a preview of the report is displayed, and resubmission is not possible. To resubmit a report, go to the study screen. ▼ Report assignment submission screen (Ver. 2.12 or earlier) Clicking on the name of the course material allowed re-submission. ▼Report Assignment Submission Screen (Ver. 2.12 or later) How to create a report assignment ▼learningBOX Ver. 2.12 or earlier Ver. 2.12 or later of ▼learningBOX Prior to Ver. 2.12, report assignments could be submitted in one of two formats: input form or file submission, with a choice of "Web input" or "file upload" or both.

Bringing the learningBOX to the world! Introducing AWS Global Accelerator

Hello! I'm Motoki, the marketing manager🍠. It's about to get a little hot and humid here in Japan. This time, I would like to introduce a new release of learningBOX version 2.11, which we have not been able to introduce yet. Click here to see the table of contents. 1. learningBOX is now faster! 2. How much faster is it really? 3. Summary learningBOX is faster Starting with learningBOX version 2.11, we have improved the performance of the system and made it faster. (In short, the site is now faster.) Starting with this version, we have introduced the "AWS Global Accelerator". This "AWS Global Accelerator" is one of the AWS services that improves application availability and performance. Have you ever experienced slow response times when browsing the Internet or using services without thinking about it? I too feel better when using or browsing the Internet on a site with a fast response time than on a site with a slow response time. In addition, English support for learningBOX has been released from this Ver. 2.11, and we expect to have more opportunities for overseas customers to use the site in the future. As a system that can respond well to access from overseas, we have used the "AWS Global Accelerator" to make the site more comfortable for everyone around the world. As the operator of learningBOX, a Learning Management System (LMS), we also believe that it is very important for us to improve the performance of the system so that customers around the world can use the system more comfortably as we expand our services. Therefore, we introduced AWS Global Accelerator, a network service that improves availability and performance by deploying it in front of ALB, NLB, EC2, and other components that provide applications. How much faster will it actually be? So, how much faster will AWS Global Accelerator actually be? Let's check with the "AWS Global Accelerator Speed Comparison (speed comparison tool)" available on the AWS website. Source: AWS Global Accelerator Speed Comparison On this page, select the file size and click the "Start" button, and the results will be displayed for each region in turn. The data compares the time required to download a file from the ALBs in each region, and the time required to download the file "directly from the Internet" and "using AWS Global Accelerator. As you can see, the time required for downloading is shorter when AWS Global Accelerator is used. Conclusion There are other advantages to using AWS Global Accelerator, but we hope that everyone around the world will be able to use learningBOX more comfortably by improving the speed of response, one of the elements of the system's ease of use. Please keep in mind that the response time of the site depends on the quality of the client's network. The 2.11 version update adds many new features, including improvements to existing features such as "Certification," "English localization support," "B-to-B sales in the EC function," and "Order screen renewal. Please take a look at the release details. ▼learningBOX has been upgraded to Ver. 2.11 We will continue to listen to our customers' voices and improve our functions to be more useful to them. We look forward to your continued support of learningBOX.

In addition, many features have been added, including improvements to existing functions. We will now introduce the details of the 2.9 series upgrade. LDAP / ActiveDirectory Integration With the learningBOX 2.9 version upgrade, we have added support for integration with LDAP servers. LDAP v3 compatible directory services (OpenLDAP, Active Directory, etc.) can be used as a user authentication method. LDAP authentication can be used not only for user authentication, but also for user management in conjunction with directory services. LDAP authentication requires a dedicated server contract. SAML Authentication Settings SAML authentication settings have been added since Ver. 2.8. To make it easier to use, the corresponding Identity Provider (IdP) and authentication setting screen have been added. SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is an XML-based international standard authentication method for authenticating users across different Internet domains, and is a protocol for achieving single sign-on (SSO). Single sign-on (SSO) is a mechanism that allows users to log in to multiple services simultaneously with a single ID and password. SAML authentication requires design customization or a dedicated server contract. SAML Authentication Settings for Trust Login Trust Login" is a single sign-on service for enterprises with basic functions such as "single sign-on" that enables login to multiple services with a single ID and password, "ID management" and "log and report functions. SAML Authentication Settings in Google G Suite LearningBOX can be registered as a SAML application for G Suite. SAML Authentication Settings with OneLogin You can register learningBOX as a SAML application for OneLogin. Badge setting function A new feature has been added that also serves as a gamification element. With the badge function, learners are given badges based on their learning achievements, which can be expected to increase their motivation. Learners can also check their course status at a glance. The badge display function can be set for each material or folder. Please note that badge acquisition conditions differ for each material. Interruption Resume Function The "Suspend and Resume" function, which is useful when conducting tests and examinations, has been further improved. We understand that in many cases you may use the one-time-only limit when conducting a test, but with this improved feature, you can interrupt and resume the quiz even if you leave the system screen during the test. This is an option that allows users to suspend and resume the quiz when taking the quiz/test. You can interrupt your answers in the middle of the quiz, and resume from the middle of the quiz. A new mode "Resume from Interruption" has been added for this time. When "Enable" is specified, you can choose to "Resume from the beginning" or "Start over from the beginning" when resuming. If you specify "Enable only from the continuation", you can only select "Resume from the continuation". Notification function for specified course materials The "Notify me when a learner has completed certain material" function has been added to meet the request of "automatically notifying the administrator when a learner has completed certain material". This function allows you to set up email notifications to be sent to the administrator when there is a change in a learner's grade status. By using this function, you can set up an e-mail notification to be sent to the administrator only for the specified course materials. You can set this function to send email notifications to the administrator only for the specified course materials.
