As in Industry Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0), the process of studies in tertiary education has actively used the e-learning platform. Two universities were involved in this study, that are Sultan Idris University of Education (UPSI), Malaysia, and Yogyakarta State University (UNY), Indonesia, using their Learning Management System (LMS) via MyGuru and BeSmart. Both these platforms are used by educators and learners to explore the difference towards perceived usefulness based on Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and also the relationship of attitude towards MyGuru and BeSmart. A total of 600 lecturers from UPSI and 1000 from UNY were selected by simple random sampling participated online survey, which was distributed within two months. There was a significance difference towards perceived usefulness (t (296) =-5.955, p < 0.05), where BeSmart has a higher usage value compared to MyGuru. There is no significance difference was seen among the lecturers’ behavioral intention to use MyGuru, rs = 0.485 (p < 0.05) and BeSmart, rs = 0.485 (p < 0.05). The Pearson correlation test results between perceived usefulness (PU) and behavioral intention to use (BITU) for Myguru and BeSmart showed a positive significant and very high relationship value of r=0.858 (p < .05) and r =.911 (p < .05), respectively. Therefore, the implementation of LMS needs continuous improvement to provide a better quality of higher education towards IR4.0.
