Craig C
Organizational Development & Effectiveness Business Partner
5.0

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.
