Why is LMS Important for eLearning to succeed?

However, a pandemic seems to have turned the entire ecosystem and its associated thought process upside down. With COVID-19 disrupting normal lifestyle of people worldwide, many people have moved to the virtual world to conduct their lives or earn livelihoods.
