Use Cases and Deployment Scope

ELMO Software can help us to keep in touch with the administrative branch of the company. It helps us to comply with legal requisites and share documents such as our daily COVID test that needs to be done and reviewed online. We also use it because sometimes we are working from home and it allows us to be connected.

Pros

Shows your timetable

Cons

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Compass as our main and group-wide tool for HR development and performance measurement - goal settings, regular career conversations, milestones follow-up, yearly evaluation. It is used all across the organization - both regionally in LatAm, my personal geographical scope, and globally.

Pros

Cycle management.
Goal setting.
Regular reviews.

Cons

Help seems unavailable.
A guide or how-to would be extremely appreciated - I haven't found any, at least for user level.
User interface could follow a more standard/familiar approach.
Some panes should be collapsible (e.g. the right "Work Flow" area, which gives very little help).

Likelihood to Recommend

Compass is an outstanding tool to help a manager organize the team's objectives, accomplishment measurement, training needs and evolution. The concept of self-evaluation and later revision by the manager is appealing. The whole approach is easy to learn and follow even for an untrained employee, and has been a great improvement over the previous spreadsheet-based evaluation system. It is yet to be seen how the performance links with remuneration.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have just given a positive review of your software after consulting with colleagues we found it easy to use and beneficial to our organization for training new personnel and also to refresh the knowledge of our existing workforce. I will personally promote and incentivize the use of your software platform for further courses and training for myself and my co-workers. Many thanks, and please keep up the hard work!

Pros

creating training courses

Cons

make the final test harder to pass with questions more in depth of knowledge

Likelihood to Recommend

Maybe creating 2 separate training modules for the basic tradesman employed by Stowe and one more in-depth for the responsibilities to be taken more seriously by the management team, who often are just experienced workers (only because of the time they spent working for Stowe other than for having undertaken more comprehensive educations and courses on Health and Safety)

Learning & Development - Training purposes.

Pros

Development of training modules.
Record of training modules undertaken.
Catalogue of courses.

Cons

Perhaps put some suggestions in "Recommended" courses based on the type of modules completed or viewed.
Advise if legislation mentioned has been updated or changed.
Suggest external courses based on type of modules completed or viewed.

Likelihood to Recommend

Ideal for learning and development purposes. Sometimes glitches are in progress but it has apparently been due to the trainer's error, not the system necessarily. Not great for performance review. Locked into questions that may not have any relevance to a particular job.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As an employee, I find it a very good 'one-stop-shop' for any employment matters. It helps me keep track of my professional development. I just finished my performance appraisal using the software and I found it very user-friendly. Using the 'leave' functions I found it a bit clunky and not so user-friendly.

Pros

Performance appraisal.
Keeping track of professional development.
Ensuring my personal details are up to date with my workplace.

Cons

The leave processes - not intuitive.

Likelihood to Recommend

Good to have all the HR stuff related to my job in one place. Great to have the record of PD all in one place. Good that I can update my own personal records to ensure the organisation has my latest contact information etc... The leave processes were not that user-friendly and for whatever reasons we no longer use these forms via ELMO Software.

ELMO Software is used for rolling out mandatory courses for all employees. It is also used for sending across the company policies that all employees need to know and follow. There are a few informative videos that assist employees with onboarding as well. It is quite a useful tool for information sharing.

Pros

It has a really good interface
Modules are quite user-friendly
Easy to access and navigate through

Cons

It would be better if some modules could be maximized to the full screen
Sometimes the slides get stuck and don't proceed to the next screen

Likelihood to Recommend

ELMO is a really good tool for enabling users to get a grip on company policies and training modules. I highly recommend it to any organization.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The onboarding process at EPSA used the ELMO software, which allowed me to upload ALL of my personal details and documentation very easily.
No random paper forms to fill out your bank account details, then one for superannuation/pension details, then another for your Emergency Contact details, etc. None of that typical nonsense.

Everything that my employer could possibly ask from me, was ALL able to be entered/uploaded via the ELMO platform. It was the best onboarding experience I've had in my career.

Pros

Accepts bank account details
Accepts identification documents
Accepts PPE details

Cons

The only issue was that if you logged-out/timed-out, the return login page/link that you were sent to, looked exactly the same, however, you couldn't log in to that page with your original credentials. I had to make sure that I manually added "/onboarding" to the link, in order to arrive at the login page that accepted my original credentials. THEN, I could finish off uploading and entering my details.

Likelihood to Recommend

It was great for onboarding. That is the limit of my experience with ELMO.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

ELMO is our chief HR portal for employees. Individuals use it to access their employment status details, receive correspondence on contracts from HR, take continuing education courses, review college staffing structures, locate team members, and so on. In my role, I also use it to initiate the recruitment of new staff members and apply for external CPD.

Pros

Onboarding process for new staff
Continuing education application process
Team structure information

Cons

Process of assigning forms to self can be a bit clunky or difficult
Staff can assign forms to other staff that they don't need to
Some courses accidentally applied for can't be deleted

Likelihood to Recommend

The performance review process is clear and easy to complete, for both employee and manager. I have experienced this in both roles, with my own staff, and undergoing my own review with my manager. I haven't experienced scenarios where it is less appropriate, I think our HR department customised the software well to our needs.
