Partenaire Moodle certifié en France

Pimenko has been helping French and international organizations set up and operate Moodle platforms for over 15 years. We are a certified Moodle Partner, one of only five organisations in France to have received this formal recognition from Moodle HQ and to be listed with UGAP.

Pimenko was also named Moodle Partner “Revelation of the Year 2026” at the Moodle Partner Awards ceremony held in Barcelona. This is one of three global awards, the highest honour presented by Moodle.

To date, we have deployed more than a hundred platforms in a wide variety of settings: cultural foundations, French and international public institutions, higher education institutions, training networks, and NGOs. We provide ongoing maintenance for about 100 of them.

It is the go-to platform for organizations seeking a flexible, sustainable, and self-hosted learning solution with no per-user licensing fees and no dependence on a proprietary vendor.

Its rich native functionality, its ecosystem of more than 2,000 plugins, and its compatibility with interoperability standards (SCORM, LTI, xAPI) make it the solution of choice for universities, prestigious higher education institutions, public institutions, international NGOs, and training organizations of all sizes.

Custom plugin development

When standard Moodle isn’t enough, we develop extensions that are permanently integrated into your environment. Our team has designed more than thirty plugins that have been published on the Moodle Marketplace or developed specifically for clients. Among the best-known contributions are: AdminPreset (integrated into the core of Moodle since version 4.0), Ludilearn (adaptive gamification, developed as part of the Ludimoodle+ project with ComUE Université de Lyon), the Program plugin for managing multi-course learning paths, DigiBoard for tracking and analysis, KeepUsers for automatic engagement reminders, and the Yparéo integration plugins.

Integration with your information system

That is often where the real complexity lies—and one of our most well-documented areas of expertise. We have implemented authentication integrations using various protocols: SAML2, OpenID Connect, CAS, Keycloak, OAuth2, Microsoft, and Google. We are also developing integrations with student and training management tools (Yparéo, Apogée, LDAP/Active Directory), including bidirectional synchronization in production environments involving thousands of users.

Ongoing support and guidance

After deployment, a platform is a living, evolving entity that encounters unforeseen challenges. Our Moodle-certified team is available to answer technical and instructional questions through our online helpdesk, our specialized documentation, or by contacting our engineers directly.
We provide support for both the “run” (day-to-day operations, incidents, updates) and the “build” (functional enhancements, new Moodle versions, scalability).

Audit and Performance

When a platform slows down, crashes during exams, or quietly accumulates technical debt, an audit helps pinpoint exactly what’s wrong. We work on existing platforms, regardless of their origin, providing a prioritized technical and organizational implementation plan.

Migration

Whether you’re migrating from another LMS, switching hosting providers, upgrading to a major new version, or taking over an existing platform, we manage the transition without any service interruptions. Our methodology covers an audit of the current system, data migration, technical and visual updates, and automated deployment.

Design and Customization

A Moodle platform should reflect your organization, not be a generic setup. Our team of developers and graphic designers customizes every visual and functional aspect: brand guidelines, usability, and simplified interfaces tailored to user profiles.
Our Pimenko theme, which is freely available on GitHub to the entire Moodle community, is compatible with Moodle versions 3.11 to 5.3. It features a responsive design, intuitive navigation on all devices, and compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards.

Analytics and Reporting

Track learner engagement, measure the impact of training courses, and identify content that works: Moodle offers built-in reporting tools that we configure to meet your needs. We set up custom reports and, if necessary, integrations with third-party analytics tools or xAPI-compatible Learning Record Stores (LRS).

What is a Certified Moodle Partner?

Moodle Partner status is awarded by Moodle HQ following a formal evaluation of the quality of the company’s work, the level of expertise of its teams, and its active contribution to the open-source ecosystem. It can’t be bought or declared—it has to be verified.

Specifically, this status gives us priority access to support from Moodle HQ and information about upcoming updates before they are released. It certifies a direct contribution to the platform’s development, equivalent to 10% of our Moodle revenue, which is remitted to Moodle HQ. And he has established a formal relationship with the development teams, which has allowed us, among other things, to integrate our AdminPreset plugin into the core of Moodle since version 4.0.

Our commitment to the ecosystem goes beyond our role as a company. Members of our team hold the Moodle Educator Qualification (MEQ), the teaching certification, or the Moodle Administrator Qualification (MAQ), the leading technical certification for administrators issued by Moodle HQ.

What our customers say about Pimenko

Find out how our digital learning solutions are transforming our clients’ training programmes across a range of sectors.

  • Higher Education

    I was immediately impressed by their enthusiasm, their ability to understand our needs and their keen sense of customer service.

    I compared several providers before choosing them, and what I particularly liked was that they immediately understood our needs and offered effective solutions, whereas others were trying to sell me unsuitable off-the-shelf products.

    Their responsiveness is incredible: not a single one of my support requests took more than a few hours to be dealt with, not even the least urgent ones!

  • International platform for the general public

    We began working with Pimenko in late 2021. Initially, our Moodle platform had just one MOOC; today we have more than 100 courses and over 160,000 learners, mainly from the Global South. The team is efficient, responsive, experienced and highly professional. The development and support team is particularly responsive, professional and friendly. We work with them almost every day. They have a good understanding of our partners in the Global South and the issues facing developing countries, which are our target audience.

  • A major group’s foundation

    They are skilled and have in-depth knowledge of the Moodle environment. For every enquiry I’ve had, they’ve provided a high-quality and prompt response regarding its feasibility. If something isn’t possible, they always suggest alternatives, taking time and budget constraints into account. A prime example of their expertise is that they managed to redesign our entire website in one month (during the summer holidays), whereas I had thought it would take at least two or three months. I particularly appreciate the fact that they care about client and end-user satisfaction.

Pimenko, listed with UGAP

Since March 2025, Pimenko has been officially listed with UGAP, the French public procurement agency. For local governments, public institutions, and government agencies, this significantly simplifies procurement procedures: no specific competitive bidding is required, contract negotiation times are reduced, and there is a guarantee that the service provider has been evaluated for quality and compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose Moodle over a proprietary LMS solution?

A proprietary LMS involves per-user licensing costs, a reliance on the vendor for updates, and data hosted on infrastructure that you do not control. Moodle is open source: there are no licensing fees, it has a global community that continuously improves the platform, and it offers complete freedom in terms of hosting and customization. For public organizations and institutions that handle sensitive data, it is also a matter of digital sovereignty.

What distinguishes a certified Moodle Partner from a non-certified integrator?

A Moodle integrator can deploy and configure the platform without having been evaluated by Moodle HQ. Moodle Partner status is granted following a formal review of the quality of the organization’s work, the expertise of its teams, and its contribution to the ecosystem. It is an external guarantee—not a sworn statement.

Are you registered for government contracts?

Yes. Pimenko has been listed with UGAP since March 2025, which simplifies the purchasing process for local governments, public institutions, and government agencies. Our procurement procedures are streamlined: there is no specific competitive tendering process.

Do you post on platforms you didn't create?

Yes. We perform audits, migrations, and maintenance takeovers on existing platforms, regardless of their origin. This is often how our most challenging projects begin.

Can we connect Moodle to our existing information system?

Yes—and this is one of our most well-documented areas of expertise. We have implemented complex SSO integrations (SAML2, OIDC, CAS, Keycloak, OAuth2) and integrations with student and training management tools (Yparéo, Apogée, Banner, LDAP/Active Directory).

Do you host your data in France?

Yes. All of our solutions for French customers are hosted in France on the infrastructure of Scaleway, a sovereign European cloud provider.

Are your platforms RGAA-compliant?

Yes. We incorporate RGAA recommendations (Level AA) starting from the design phase—graphic, functional, technical, and editorial. Our teams are trained in digital accessibility, and we use automated verification tools and manual testing with screen readers.
