Find out what your peers are saying about Pluralsight, Cornerstone OnDemand, Litmos and others in Virtual Training."What I like the most about Cornerstone is that it is agile. It has good built-in processes and the implementation is rapid."
"Their integration features with other platforms are valuable. It is also relatively easy to use. Their library of training modules is fairly robust as well."
"It is a complete suite of solutions and features. Compared to other solutions which are more niche solutions, which may be as good as Cornerstone or even better in certain parts of it, like discerning user experience. You will not find another solution that has the same completeness of features in all different areas of learning."
"Combining everything together, our on-time completions have gone from the mid-sixty percentile to over 99% on-time completion."
"The Meeting feature is similar to a conference call facility that can be used for virtual meetings."
"Cornerstone Learning's most valuable features are the keyword search, filters, and add-to-favorites option."
"The most valuable features are the Playlists, Learning Assignment Tool, Earner Experience Platform, Machine Learning, and Reporting 2.0."
"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 amount of courses on offer is great."
"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."
"The existing test functionality is really old-fashioned, basic, and limited."
"Cornerstone Learning can improve reporting. If they had a harmonization of the administration UIs it would be great."
"Cornerstone Learning's initial setup was complex, but I don't see that as a downside. It was complex because there is a lot of customizing and a lot of settings that can be done in the setup."
"Cornerstone Learning could improve the curriculum function by giving it more flexibility. I'm managing the solution and I adding content to the system, and overall, the backend of the system looks a bit dated. Cornerstone Learning has focused a lot on the user experience and less on the backend operational administrative experience. This could be improved overall."
"A minus is that Cornerstone doesn't provide the admin the ability to create their own content for learning. So, you can just manage the content."
"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."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams for virtual sessions could be better"
"The quality of the courses could be better."
