Relias Learning Management System vs. Alta from Knewton, a Wiley brand

Good for an organization who are in health care and in ABA. Not so good everyone else. There are courses specific to the industry, however, the glitches and the lack of support from the customer service staff makes it hard to recommend the product.

I think any computational based math class will greatly benefit from [alta from Knewton, a Wiley brand]. It simplifies the professor's work in terms of grading while also increasing the student's ability to get real time help on homework problems if they are struggling. I like that the questions are at a deep level and not all multiple choice. If a student gets a problem wrong they get a growth mindset message of encouragement.

• The gamification elements are fun, and our staff enjoys decorating their crests.
• The ability to personalize our reminders ensures that compliance stays top-of-mind.
• User-friendly doesn't do it justice - zero training is needed on how to use the system because it's so intuitive!

• The UI needs to be modernized and more user-friendly for non-technical individuals.
• Courses need to be updated with more engaging content. Extremely painful to read the course materials for hour long.
• The platform can be upgraded to increase speed and navigation.

Incentivized

• Wider distribution--not many know about it
• Tighter line between objectives and learning
• Alternative testing to prevent student cheating

RMLS have become an important component of our agency's support systems. It provides consistent context for education and trainings as well as being flexible to allow staff to access it on their time. We have found many of the content sessions to be very useful for staff development and supportive of our overall agency goals and strategies.

I enjoy the ease of setup. It has a large course library and selection filter to choose by
profession and/or module type. Even though it has a generic user
interface and navigating tools, but it gets the job done. It offers the
basic and simple delivery, tracking, and reporting.

Easy to use

Relias staff has been accommodating whenever support is needed. When Relias staff are at booths at conferences, they also engage very positively and are available for support. It seems as if the Relias staff really care about the work they do and the product they offer.

It was very easy to implement. It's cloud based, so the most difficult part was getting users loaded.

Relias has significantly more and higher quality training courses and video offerings than any competitor in the space. At the end of the day, it's about the caregivers receiving as much information they can to be successful.

Compared to competitors, the Knewton system is much more adaptive and designed for mastery and learning rather than assessment. If those are your goals, then this is a good system to use. The complexity of the problems is generally lacking, so you will need to supplement with more difficult problems for your students to tackle, whereas many other systems have these more difficult problems built-in.
