TryTami vs Cademy: Training Management Software

Two training management platforms built for training providers—one adds a built-in instructor network. See how TryTami and Cademy compare.

Overview

Cademy is a training management system (TMS) with a built-in LMS and course booking engine, designed for training providers who sell courses online. TryTami is also a TMS for instructor-led training providers, but goes further by streamlining operations, removing bottlenecks to scale, and offering a built-in instructor network for sourcing vetted external instructors on demand. If you need software to manage course bookings, deliver self-paced content, and process payments, Cademy is a solid choice. If you need a TMS that also solves your instructor sourcing and capacity challenges, TryTami is worth a close look.

What Is Cademy?

Cademy is a cloud-based training management system that combines course booking, an LMS, a training CRM, and payment processing into a single platform. It supports in-person, live online, on-demand, and blended training formats. With pricing starting at £99/month for the Pro plan (plus a free tier with a 5% platform fee), Cademy is used by organizations like the NHS, UK Parliament, and Shell to manage their training operations. It also includes an AI course builder for creating course content quickly.

What Is TryTami?

TryTami is a training management system built for instructor-led training providers. It streamlines training operations—from scheduling and resource management to instructor coordination and reporting—saving time and removing bottlenecks so providers can scale. What sets TryTami apart is its built-in instructor network: a marketplace for sourcing vetted, external instructors when your internal team needs additional capacity or specialized expertise. This combination of operational TMS and instructor marketplace is unique in the market.
