Abstract
In two decades, the Moodle established itself as favorable LMS. It is used on all levels of education and many lecturers have gained skills to use it effectively. Moodle becomes mature and many lecturers have found it to be their first choice Learning Management System (LMS). Educational systems around the world have always problems with money and the Moodle is free; it has good multi-language support; and it implements many functionalities covering most lecturers' needs. But in the recent years some new alternatives emerge. They do not want to copy the Moodle and this makes them interesting enough to try them in practice. In recent time the Microsoft Teams incorporating the Microsoft OneNote becomes increasingly popular and gained users in many fields of work. Both systems were tried in different courses. It is clear that the Moodle is the winner in traditional educational tasks (assessments, peer to peer assessment, quizzes, categorization, extendibility). The MS Teams excels in different types of communications (chat, videoconferencing, lecturing, screen shareing), and is superior in general content creation. There is no clear winner in the assignment, mathematics (symbol), and file distribution.
