Navigate 3.2.1 Tools for Deciding on an LMS

For this quest I have chosen to categorize LMS tools that best serve the K-12 scenario due to the fact that I primarily teach in the K-12 setting.
One of the main concerns for K-12 is cost.  The majority of users would be public schools which don't have a ton of extra funding to spend on expensive commercial LMSes so finding an affordable option would be key.  Through my research I found the top LMSes for K-12 education to be (not necessarily in order):
1. Moodle
2. Sakai
3. Canvas
4. Blackboard
5. Haiku
Here's a pretty interesting comparison chart I found on the Canvas website:

I also really like this video by Blackboard that I found on LinkedIn.
