Trainual is built for people-powered businesses with 5-500 employees or individual teams inside larger organizations needing to streamline knowledge transfer and train more efficiently.
Companies or organizations in highly regulated, high consequence industries where operational and compliance requirements are particularly complex.
My recommendation for anyone looking into it is to have a strong plan and a devoted 'Trainual Champion' devoted to the buildout and implantation of the platform.
Acquiring all their credentials and having to log in individually as them, is a pain.
They have supported us throughout the process. When you have a great product and an even better team supporting it, great things happen.
The only issues I have is logging in sometimes it lags for a long time and I usually have to refresh it.
I have been in charge of adding many SOPs to our Trainual platform and I love the user friendly capabilities it has to offer. I am not the most "techy" person, so if I can do it, anyone can do it.
And the “essay” exams are NOT FUNCTIONAL because there is no way for the Administrator to review and approve the submissions. It just says 100% no matter what they write.
Trainual seemed like the perfect fit for training our employees across departments. We only got it half implemented before adopting some other tools, but I loved the start to it.
What about definition matching or something else more interactive than multiple choice. And I wish you could turn off the feature where it shows the User what they got wrong.
Very simple system to use, what I like is the video training which is pretty much what most companies do nowadays. Probably the best thing that it does is that it integrates easily with most systems.
It can be a bit clunky, difficult to create a reporting system from scratch, batching is a problem, and requires many steps in the system.
The ability to monitor hiring trends is excellent, along with the ability to customize reporting tools.
The info is often outdated or links broken. Client support extremely poor.
I have a good relationship with them because my company partners with several LMS systems and this is the solution that we give for healthcare professionals and manufacturers.
Sometimes the inability to think a element of functionality through In order to deliver its full potential.
PeopleFluent has created a great platform that helps both with the nursing training and compliance in a simple to use Learning Management System.
Database tables are messy - eg. A primary key used as a foreign key in another table has a different name.
John S.: Hello, my name is John. I'm the hiring and training director at a medium-sized company, and I would rate Trainual five out of five stars. Before Trainual, we had everything stored in Google Docs or in other different random places. We had it printed off at our locations, but, honestly, every location we went to, the training manual was slightly different. It would have this version, or that version, and, honestly, we couldn't get something consistently into the hands of our employees. Trainual, in the end, was an easy decision. This was because there was a few factors that we were looking for, and I wanted an app, something that it would be accessible to our employees at all times, and also, you could have pictures and videos. It's very easy to edit, and, ultimately, down to the wire, it was the best price. There was nothing that offered to us what Trainual does for the price that it does. Even now, years later, still is very competitive. It always surprised me how easy it was to get started. They still have the same policy now, where you can just sign up for a free trial without a card. You can just try it out, mess around within the system, basically, see how well you can just navigate it without much training, and that was very easy, and then, of course, once you do sign up, they offer very extensive training within Trainual itself. It still shocks me to this day how easy it was. The one thing I would advise anyone that's looking into Trainual is just how great it is, but, at the end of the day, it's still a tool, so whatever you put into it, that's what you're going to get out, and so the great benefit is that Trainual is such a blessing to use. It's easy, it's very intuitive, and, honestly, one of the things I really appreciate is that they're always updating their processes, their updates, and how to use the program. So, again, making sure to be in it. It is a living, breathing creature, so pour into it what you want to get out.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
