### "New entrant in the LMS world focussing on UX and customization rather than backend "

March 19, 2021

5.0

Overall very good experience

Pros

Attractive pricing model for a solution which can be tailored. Excellent user and admin experience. Very willing and flexible team to work with. Ambitious roadmap. Nicer design compared with a lot of solutions on the market. good positioning sitting between off the shelf (take it or leave it) solutions and extremely expensive fully customizable platforms.

Cons

Still catching up on some functionalities compared with more established actors on the market

### "Thoughtfully structured, easy to use LMS with clean design"

April 9, 2021

5.0

TheLearningLab has been incredibly helpful for our non-profit organization as we move into providing more online trainings around the world. This LMS is allowing us to scale both our internal staff training and the external training we provide to youth sport program managers worldwide in a way that is low-cost and actually fun! TheLearning Lab team have been super great to work with, always responding to any questions we have and even providing training and support via video calls when needed. We highly recommend them!

Pros

We thought very hard before selecting our LMS, and what we liked about TheLearning Lab was that the platform provided everything that we needed to launch our very first e-learning platform, with very little customization needed or technical know-how in terms of content creation. The team at TheLearning Lab are really e-learning professionals and met with us to help us learn about the potential for the platform and how it could fit with our needs. They also gave us some good tips about content creation since they provide this service to some clients (though we are creating our own course content in-house). We like that the backend structure where the courses are created actually mirrors how the courses appear to users. This sounds simple but some of the other course authoring softwares that we tried were really not intuitive to use at all! The simplicity of this LMS means that we will soon train several people on our team to help with creating and editing courses, meaning we can create content much faster. Other things we really like are: - Unlimited users at no extra cost (no hidden or unknown costs as we scale) - Ability to assign users to different audiences, gives it versatility that allows us to easily provide different content for staff training versus external online courses - Ability to set up single sign-on from our website - Gamification such as badges - Several other languages possible via integrated DeepL API key

Cons

Their LMS is missing a couple of the interactive features that a previous LMS had, for example the ability to give feedback for incorrect quiz answers (currently feedback is only possible for correct answers) and small things like flip cards with images (not just text). However TheLearningLab LMS is constantly being upgraded with new features and the Penceo team have been responsive to requests for additional features, which makes a big difference compared to dealing with a faceless software company.

[Moodle](https://www.capterra.com/p/80691/Moodle/)

Our original solution was an authoring tool called Evolve that we planned to connect to our existing Drupal website via the Moodle LMS. However we found Evolve to be too complicated to create courses in the backend, and with Moodle the courses were only available as pop-ups rather than being embedded in our website. There were issues with the Moodle customization overall as we found the default style to be clunky and much too complicated for our needs. We chose TheLearningLab because it is both an authoring tool and an LMS, and because we felt that their team are really forward-thinking and passionate about providing a great LMS solution.

Reasons for choosing Learning Lab

TheLearningLab provided all the key features we needed for creating attractive e-learning content, while not being overly complicated or very expensive. Some of the LMS options out there are extremely expensive, and the costs increase as you add more users which seemed like a big risk as e-learning is a new area for us. We also liked how it was easy to use in the backend, so we could imagine that our staff with little prior LMS experience could learn how to create or edit the course content.

### "An LMS that is very friendly to users, trainers and admin staff alike "

May 20, 2021

4.0

We want to enhance our trainees' learning experience by offering the possibility of blended learning on some of our courses. The LMS Lab is offering us a simple, user-friendly way to experiment with blended courses. We are now testing content, formats, quizzes and certification. And so far everyone is happy be they trainees, trainers or course producer (me !)

Pros

Easily usable both from an end-user (trainee) and admin/trainer perspective; beautiful and streamlined design, easily "brandable"; the fact that we feel we have some leverage on the additional functionalities and features that can be developed is a plus. The excellent and personable relations we have with Penceo marketing, creative and support team.

Cons

We are still in the process of discovering how to best use the platform. There are a few functionalities that are missing - such as a course assessment form or the possibility to create a discussion forum for the trainees.

Reasons for choosing Learning Lab

We had looked at various LMS products over the past few years and eventually given up, at least temporarily, on pursuing the LMS avenue because of costs, unfriendly user/admin interfaces, or difficult integration with our own products. But \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], and team, came back to us and offered us the possibility to test the platform at not cost for one of our courses. They won us over !

### "We love TheLearning Lab, only real creative solution we found"

October 1, 2021

5.0

Very helpful team, great software. We love working with it as it is so easy to set up!

Pros

We were looking for a LMS and Authoring tool in one which was designed to set up courses with interactive video, mobile, infographics, gamification and which was particularly easy to style in our clients corporate identity.

Cons

The tool is quite new which means some of the features need to become a bit mature. But the great thing is that the dev team quickly adds new features and works close with us to achieve the best result. So in fact this turned out to be a strength

### "Partners, Not Suppliers"

April 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

As much as we like the platform itself for all of its innovative features, the aspect that has most impressed us is the customer service that The Learning Lab has given thus far. Granted, we are only just embarking on our project and as such can't comment on more than a few months' of engagement. Nonetheless, it is clear The Learning Lab are already more than simply LMS suppliers. Rather, they are our partners and will be plugged into our operation long term. In terms of the product itself, we really like the slideshow format of each lesson, with the ability to create really engaging multimedia for our learners.

Cons

Ideally we would be able to upload our videos directly to the platform (this is possible though I understand better to use Vimeo when using large video files) and automatically generate subtitles in multiple languages. There are easy workarounds for these issues, though.

Switched from

[Thinkific](https://www.capterra.com/p/132888/Thinkific/)

We felt The Learning Lab's boutique solution and footprint in the sports industry suited our project a lot better. We also liked the ability to create extra 'layers' in our course e.g. have Course > Module > Section > Lesson, which previous LMSs didn't provide.

### "A wonderful experience"

May 26, 2023

5.0

We are about to deploy an educational platform for our best customers in order to easily extend their certification. This requested a strong integration with our existing ecosystem.

Pros

This is the most powerful and at the same time simple to use LMS we found. Is an hybrid between an open source and a SaaS solution. Compatible with the all the most use standards and with an out-of-the-box internal authoring tool. Course and student management is easy and the platform can be customized following your CI guidelines.

Cons

Nothing at the moment. The initial setup, the customizations and integrations are working as expected.

From first contact up to now the experience with the Software and the Team was really great. Support is always there when we need it. The exchange happens in a pure "why not?" attitude which perfectly matches with our culture of product development.

Pros

We like most that the software is flexible to allow for customization.

Cons

Usage of the backend is not always intuitive. However, once you get used to it, you quickly get to the speed needed for content design and uploading.

My overall experience is very positive. The team listens carefully, understood my needs and even uncovered some I didn't know I had ! Very good value for the money

Pros

Very intuitive and easy to use. Integrated with my back-office to have a full stack platform to respond to our rapidly scalable needs.

Cons

So far so good. No cons at this moment as I am using the software for just 6 months

Reasons for choosing Learning Lab

While assessing LMS solutions, The Learning Lab team was , by far, the most responsive and pro-active to understand our needs and propose a vision of what would be the best in class solution for my teams. They exactly translated my wishes into a POC that blew my mind. The team is very supportive before, during and after the purchase. No surprises, always there when needed.

TheLearning Lab is a great partner to develop a long lasting strategy of the learning activities. The support is always timely and effective. Frequently new features are developed based on the needs of the clients.

Pros

The authoring tool is very easy to use and allows the translation of the content via Google Chrome reducing costs and offerirng a better service (more than 100 languages available)

Cons

sometimes the templates are not fully customable but, with a discussion with the agency, I can express my requests and see if possible to implement.

For the authoring tool and for their experience with sport federations which allows to share within the group with clients with similar needs.

### "Perfect tailored solution"

May 26, 2023

5.0

We truly work together as a team. They work tirelessly to understand our needs and those of our customers. Our industry is a very unique one with a rigid set of rules for training. Learning Lab have gone over and above in order to get to grips with our industry and interpret our often vague guidelines into something amazing. It's been a lot of fun as well which is actually more important than it sounds. We laugh a lot and enjoy working together.

Pros

I think the bespoke nature of Learning Lab is what I love most. So many online learnings are the same thing just packaged differently but Learning Lab allows us to create something truly unique. I love how innovative the team there are and how they too are keen to explore ways to push the boundaries and create new things. I also think their dedication to developing our partnership and understanding our needs is important. They truly work with us, not for us and together we are creating some great things.

Cons

Some of the gamification tools are slightly clunky but I suspect that is because they are new. I know Learning lab constantly improve and update so this will change soon i'm sure.

Switched from

The previous supplier was very rigid in terms of their offering. It was hard for us to customise and develop the product into something we could use. The Learning Lab was much more flexible and fits our needs far better.

The team always listens to your needs and quickly finds answers or shortcuts to help me achieve my goal.

Pros

The platform is very ergonomic and allows you to build all types of training programs.The point that impressed me the most and that I find very interesting is the coaching approach. It's not a classic LMS.With this platform you will be able to build real training and coaching models over the long term.

Cons

In the beginning, it was difficult to create content from scratch that didn't already exist.It wasn't easy to understand the organization of classes, courses and lessons.But with a quick training session with someone on the team, I took charge of creating my various lessons very easily.

Reasons for choosing Learning Lab

January 27, 2023

5.0

Learning Lab is customer-oriented and user-friendly. I have only good experience with this platform; it can be adapted to customer needs as well as look & feel. Perfect for different industries!

Pros

This product is easy to use and very user-friendly. I especially like the possibility to brand the e-learning platform with your own branding & design it as you wish. The company is very open to some updates or new features; thus, it's customer-centric which is a high advantage. Its big asset is slide builder, the authoring tool. Besides, I appreciate manual assessment possibility as it opens new door to exciting experiences in terms of e-learning.

Cons

Tests & statistics are already on a good level but might be improved. Having said that, the platform is constantly developed so improving these two aspects is in progress.

From purchase to ease of use, to support - excellent all the way through. Hands-on team that cares about clients and jumps in to help when required.

Pros

After a review of dozens and dozens of LMSs this one is the best all-rounder.Customizable interface with ease of use and quick to learn.Most easy to use systems are template driven and hold you back on being able to create a high quality visual experience. Not this one... really impressive

Cons

Many new features are in dev so the learning Lab team is keeping up well with user requests. Nothing glaring missing at all.
