"It's better than the previous learning solutions we had. We liked that it was global. We liked that you don't have to be logged into the company network to be able to use it. Those were really big benefits for us."
"There are new releases every three months that keep up with industry standards and meet the needs of the customer."
"The solution is very stable."
"Cornerstone Learning's most valuable features are the keyword search, filters, and add-to-favorites option."
"The most valuable feature is how easy it is to learn and use. It's built off the Microsoft Word format, so if you can use Word, you'll be able to figure this out."
"The most valuable features of Cornerstone Learning are how extensive the configurable the solution is."
"What I like the most about Cornerstone is that it is agile. It has good built-in processes and the implementation is rapid."
"It is a one-stop shop solution, where you can actually log in using your Windows username and password, and the single sign-on can be configured with this LMS."
"Its pricing is good, and its performance is good when it works."
"This complete product is highly scalable. Licensing is not based on number of total users on the system but rather only on active users. Litmos only charge for the number of users engaged in training. This is what makes this solution ideal for scale."
"It's very easy to design content and create training models within the app, so you don't always have to use a third-party tool to develop your e-learning."
"Content Author removes the need for a third-party solution for content creation."
"Litmos has an excellent user interface. It's well designed and intuitive. It also has a great content engine. I'm one of the admins, so I create content in the system and use that to produce courses. We make our own training content and credit records. They recently added a new feature called the Course Content Creator, and I'm a big fan. I also like that Litmos lets you record online and face-to-face training so you can create what they call Instructor-led Training Events (ILT)."
"This is a very scalable solution. We had over 10,000 students in our instance and their billing model makes scaling affordable to do."
"Its user interface is quite good. The platform is quite user-friendly. The UI/UX of the platform is very advanced, which helps in getting the users interested in the training."
"It incorporates the majority of the elements."
"Even though the system has a number of features, design wise the user interface is a little bit complicated. It is hard for the user to navigate properly. Because the system has so many features, it has a lot of tabs and links. Sometimes, people get confused as to where to go and search."
"The support for this solution could be improved."
"The recruitment module needs to be improved in Cornerstone Learning."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams for virtual sessions could be better"
"There are some configuration elements that require Cornerstone engineering resources. It would be nice if we could self-serve. I would like the ability to manage the user interface or the navigation and layout of the pages that are displayed to end-users."
"There is a need for quite a bit of improvement. The reporting side of things definitely needs a lot of improvement. At the moment, it gives you a data dump. You have to open it up in Excel and filter out the bits that you don't want and need."
"The user interface is in need of improvement."
"The automated ticketing system for technical support often has a response time that is quite long, which is something that should be improved."
"The reporting in Litmos could be improved. It is difficult to pull accurate reporting based on how the solution is set up and parameters are selected."
"The solution lags in defined security parameters with only three predefined roles available."
"The auto-assign feature that auto assigns courses to learners and puts them into a different learning path has had a bug for the last year and a half. My team has spent numerous hours trying to troubleshoot and fix that, but it's still broken. Until they fix that, it's going to be a higher admin burden for people to manage."
"One feature that a few of my clients have been requesting is CPD. We should be able to capture CPD points for users within the system to be able to report on those."
"The rules are not very flexible in terms of administration. They have a predefined system with three standard rules that cannot be customized, modified, added, or removed."
"You cannot make a course optional, so if I assign a course to someone, the system assumes that they have to complete it."
"Lacks a variety of language options."
"The reporting could be improved. When we first subscribed to Litmos, it had a great reporting engine, but SAP altered it. Some of the changes have reduced the ability to extract reports from it. It's excellent for live data, but it can be tricky when I want to get a report."
