iSpring Learn is a worthy product
Rating: 10 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We use iSpring Learn to distribute and educate the employees and clients on our software. Additionally we use its deeper LMS tools to help grow and maintain our knowledge of our employees as well as empower them to see their career path and have some insight into how they can grow and what progress they have been making.
Pros
- The authoring tool has been invaluable to augment the training material in PowerPoint, what used to be either bland or would require arduous amounts of programming as become a far more simpler straightforward task.
- Collating and tracking of employees by individual or department.
- Delivering content to our many clients.
Cons
- Permissions are not clear enough. There have been issues when new features are released. Perfect example is when the review system came online, no one thought to partition departments to prevent other managers from seeing reviews of employees in other departments. Gross oversights such as this rendered time we put into developing this as staple at the company caused a lot of headaches and never should have been released without more consideration.
- Courses and catalog should not be hidden in the Additional Options under settings; it is counterintuitive for it not to be in the actual menu of the learning creation area.
- Context sensitive rollovers would be nice as they would add a level of explanation as to what process may need to be completed for a task to be complete.
Likelihood to Recommend
We have yet to fully employ the on-the-job training, but it is perfect for what we eventually want to deploy. It would be nice if the system allowed name changes to functions like that. OTJ really doesn't reflect our nomenclature of having a one-on-one with our employees to track their work progress. OTJ sounds like a term used to learn how to operate a fryer at a fast-food chain.
