Absorb LMS vs Genially: Which is a better fit?

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.

Hilary: Hi, I'm Hilary and I'm the owner of my business, and I give Genially a five out of five. If you need more information, just click below. Before I had Genially, I tried making escape rooms with things such as Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Sites, and Google Forms to make digital escape rooms, and it was quite clunky. When I found Genially, it took me a little while just to figure out some of the ins and outs. But once I got going, it took off. It's very easy to use and I can do many different features that make digital escape rooms fun. I chose Genially because it makes interactive activities easy and I can make things where students or players can click, type, draw on the screen. They can move items and choose places to put things just to make it more of a game type of activity. When I first started using Genially, it was a little bit challenging. There wasn't a lot of instruction on how to make some of the interactive elements work, so I did a lot of trial and error. However now, they have added some tutorials and there are lots of activities and tutorials on YouTube that I can use to help me further the use of the product. They're also coming out with new improved activities all the time. If you are considering getting Genially or not, I would highly recommend going ahead and doing it. It is fairly inexpensive and you can also get a free account, and that would be a great time to just learn how to use it until you are ready to take the leap and move into a master plan or a pro plan.
