How popular is Moodle?

Moodle.org runs a site registration system to try and calculate moodle usage. Based on our experience as a moodle partner offering hosting services, we would say that only about half the moodle-using organisations out there have registered their sites. Since Moodle 1.5 was released in June 2005, the Moodle site registration program has gathered basic usage data from each site when registered. About 80% of the registered moodle sites are now 1.5 or above, so this data is becoming more accurate, but it must be borne in mind that when a site is registered it is normally in the early stages of use, and usage figures will grow during the life of the site. Even so, the figures are impressive: Registered Moodle sites: 45827 • Courses: 2010644 • Users: 20867613 • Teachers: 1917034 • Enrolments: 20973633 • Forum posts: 24895958 • Resources: 14941135 • Quiz questions: 19123675 (The above data was gathered at the end of June 2008) Remember, these figures are based only on registered sites.
