Summary/Abstract: The paradigm of e-learning educational process in the information society using information and communications technologies that result in increase creativity, improve teamwork and the changing role of instructor / teacher. Decision is an essential element of management is the most important tool of expression for a list of options for the development of online platforms. This paper proposes an approach to multi-criteria analysis methods to decide how software development tools used in virtual educational environment. Multi-criteria analysis (MCA) describes any structured approach used to determine overall preferences among the various options, alternative options could lead to the fulfillment of a number of objectives. The goal of this method is to make a comparative assessment of alternative options or other heterogeneous measures. Actually measure the indicators used in the MCA is usually based on the quantitative analysis (through scoring, ranking and weighting calculation) of a wide range of categories and criteria for qualitative impact. Multi-criteria analysis applies specifically where the approach via a single criterion is not sufficient especially when significant social and environmental impacts can not be assigned monetary values. The purpose of this tool is to structure and combine different evaluations that must be considered in the decision-making process when making decisions involves several alternatives and their treatment of each of these greatly influence the final decision. Importantly, the multi-criteria analysis is used to record the reasoning and subjective views of stakeholders in relation to each issue. As Postolache says is usually used to synthesize opinions to determine priority structures to analyze conflict situations or make recommendations or offer operational advice.
