Organizations providing employee, customer, partner, or member training. Absorb's clients range from a few hundred learners right through to hundreds of thousands of learners.
LearningStone is happily used by trainers and coaches, training agencies and internal training departments all over the world.
Compared to other LMS, the platform itself is easy to use while providing a good breadth of features for our use. It's a mature product, with a solid backend.
And due to the acquisition, we unfortunately had no choice.
I love the ease of access with everything in absorb. The customer service is best in class, and there are always resources available to support.
Difficult to manage blended learning. Some factors in course management could use improvements.
The company itself is great to work with. Their customer service staff is so nice and friendly, and the project manager and account manager I worked with helped me every step of the way.
Limited assessment options when it comes to answer types. Reporting structure takes a bit to get used to.
A great example is working with Absorb's support as we transitioned to a new HRIS platform. I had the pleasure of working with [sensitive content hidden] and he was fantastic.
When assigning courses you can only assign to a whole or sub-department, you can exclude.
We appreciate Learning Stone very much as a reliable and easy to use tool to support us in developping blended learning solutions. It is great value for money.
The thing I find frustrating is the manual process involved with moving someone into the class.
I didn't have any experience with this kind of software so I was very happy to find out that LearningStone is very easy to use.
Adding links to documents took sometimes a very long time, or was even unsuccessful.
It's also a platform made by people who care about their project and who really want to help you be successful and get the best out of it. They offer amazing customer service.
Some students who are old in age and not very familiar with computers found that confusing at first.
And keeping everything around my courses orderly in one place makes me and my students happy, calm and focused. The customer support is very fast, personal, friendly and thoroughgoing.
I am not a web designed and have limited technical know-how, so considering that the time was nothing at all.
Craig C.: Hi, my name is Craig. I am a consultant. I would give Absorb LMS a five. And if you want more reviews like this, please click below. My company really wanted to focus on learning and development, but we didn't have a tool to kind of disseminate that across the organization. So we did an analysis, a vendor analysis and we arrived at Absorb LMS. And the problem that it's solving is solving the ability of departmental and unit training. And then also giving employees across the company access to learning and development tools. I like how easy it is to use and integrate into HMSA systems. It also plays nice with the different types of software that we use. So for example, we use Salesforce for a lot of our business processes. All of our employee information is loaded into Salesforce. Every time we get a new hire, that information goes through Salesforce and Salesforce coordinates really well with Absorb and cuts down the process work on our end. So I just like how easy it is to use. I wish there were more customization options for the user. I wish they were able to speed up or slow down a video, for example. That's a big ask that we get from our employees and other customization things that will make their lives easier.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
