Absorb LMS

Pros

It offers a very pleasant experience when browsing its interface and viewing the content of the learning programs. Its search tool is very precise to quickly find the required courses. It provides a lot of versatility with its mobile app, which allows you to log in from anywhere and at any time. The evaluation process is very intuitive and simple to carry out.

Cons

So far, the only thing I think it can add is a better level of personalization of the learning processes, however, this is a versatile and very complete platform.

Pros

Coming from another software, we loved the customizable features of the software!

Cons

Only honestly the reports feature. There was only ways to run mass reports, or individual person or courses. I couldn't pick various folks and run it all at once. HOWEVER being able to to download to excel file instead of CSV file was a game changer!!

Pros

Good User Interface,
Good Course Management.
Good sync with BambooHR on most things.
Good Learner interface.
Good Customisation options.

Cons

Difficult to manage blended learning.
Some factors in course management could use improvements. (Managing assessments)
Cannot see how many absences from courses that users have.
Some issues with how it syncs with Bamboo(overwriting course information)
Customer Support is non existent. 10+ days to resolve any issues. Most issues I have to try and resolve myself by resetting and that causes me other issue.
Can sometimes be 'buggy' and will introduce random bugs which can be time consuming to fix and result in me resetting the system sync.

Pros

What I liked the most about the system were the following features: 1. Intuitive User Interface: Provides a user-friendly and easy-to-navigate experience, which allowed our employees to quickly adapt to the online learning environment.2. Personalization: The ability to customize course templates, themes, and design helped us deliver engaging and branded learning content.3. Resource Library: The extensive resource library, including videos, articles, and presentations, allowed us to create and enrich our courses with additional materials.

Cons

Some aspects that I consider could be improved in the system are: 1. Price: For smaller organizations or with limited budgets, the cost of the platform may be a bit high. It would be beneficial to implement cheaper or more flexible plans according to the specific needs of each company.2. Advanced features: Some features, such as setting up complex assessments or creating custom learning paths, could be easier to access and use. Facilitating these tools would allow the implementation of even more efficient training programs.

Pros

Absorb has made the implementation process incredibly easy. User training was broken down into helpful microlearning and many features have been customizable, which my company stakeholders have loved. Having a project manager as a go-to source of knowledge has been fantastic, and the Help Center has given me self-sufficiency that I look for when working with other vendors. We also love that most features are already included in the pricing, versus being nickel and dimed for reporting, mobile interfaces, different learning methods, company branding, etc. We're excited to have Absorb help our company grow.

Cons

I'd love it if Absorb could work on additional API integrations that are included in the price. My company uses several 3rd party content creators (KnowB4, Udemy) and there are currently no connections with them.
