The best LMS for a training company selling to other businesses is one built around reselling training under your own brand with per client seat management, not a platform designed for a single business training its own employees, since B2B training companies need to manage many separate client accounts, not just one team.

What a B2B training company actually needs
Each client company needs its own isolated space with its own learners, but the training company needs to manage all of them from one place, and each client should see only their own branded relationship with the training company, not other clients. That's the core of a purpose-built LMS for training companies.
Per client account structure matters more than course features
A block of seats per client, a manager dashboard scoped to just that client's team, and reporting that doesn't leak data between different client accounts matter more than a large course authoring toolkit for a company already producing training content.
Selling structure: seats and contracts, not per course purchases
Training companies typically sell to a client company as a block, a contract for a set number of seats, not one course at a time to individual learners, so the platform needs team seat packages and per account billing, not just a shopping cart.
Real cost considerations at scale
Contact based or per seat pricing models punish scale, since bringing on more client companies increases the bill. Flat price platforms keep the same monthly cost whether you have five client companies or fifty — one reason a flat $100 a month makes the reselling math simpler.
What to check before choosing
Does the platform support unlimited separate client accounts? Does each client get isolated reporting and branding? Does the price change as you add more clients or seats?
