Missy: Hi, I'm Missy. I'm the learning and development business partner. I gave Thinglink a four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. I considered looking at Genially which is a similar type of product to Thinglink. And one thing I found about Genially was that you can't co-collaborate and work on different types of images or slide decks at the same time. And with ThingLink, it was great because I'm able to work on multiple formats and multiple files with members of my team all at once without having to worry about asking someone to log in or log out. One of the biggest reasons why I chose ThingLink was because it integrates with our LMS tool. And one of the best things about that is the fact that when we create learning experiences or courses or information that we want to share with our teams internally, it makes it really easy to embed it in our LMS platform form and for our new employees or for existing employees to follow trainings really easily. And I liked it because I'm able to update it in real-time. Meaning if I make an update on ThingLink, it will automatically update it for me in my integration because of the embedding feature. And that saves me a lot of time. ThingLink was pretty easy for me to get onboarded with. I had a dedicated account manager who helped me out. They also have a really extensive knowledge base that allows you to find pretty quick answers and solutions, as well as a help center. If you have any questions about embedding, or if you run into any troubleshooting that you need done, I found it was super easy to get a response and the response times were really quick. I think if you are looking or considering using ThingLink, you should think about all of the different ways that you can use the tool. For us, it was really important that we were able to create experiences and tutorials that were very interactive. And then another thing would definitely be the ability to embed it or integrate it definitely in your LMS tool will help for like a seamless flow and a much more active experience, especially when you are training remotely or if you have a lot of team members joining remotely globally. It will help you to streamline your communication and for your learning processes in whatever organization that you work in.
