Great Tool! Easy to Use!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

iSpring Learn has allowed me to spend more time teaching and training employees and less time managing training materials and programs!

Pros

  • Automatically re-enrolling employees when a certificate expires. Set it and forget it!
  • If set up properly from the beginning, you don't have to do much, with the roles and groups settings, you can automate a large portion of the course management.
  • I can provide visibility to anyone about any employee necessary, allowing me to put more responsibility on my managers, instead of doing it all myself.

Cons

  • Some of the words they use for features, are commonly used words for other things, so it can be a bit confusing to learn the different features.
  • There can be a lot of redundancy when setting up users and courses.
  • I want the lead administrator to see the dashboards that the managers can see for their teams.

Return on Investment

  • I can train more people and I can do it in less time.
  • I can provide repetitions for stronger retention.
  • I can clearly know who has or hasn't completed tasks or failed quizzes to know who needs extra help.

We got even more than we bargained for

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We needed a tool that we could use to train new hires effectively and also store all of our company trainings, video recordings, etc. We signed on with iSpring Learn 1.5 years ago to help with that, and it's been fantastic. We created learning tracks with structured courses for new hires and managers, and our teams have found iSpring Learn easy to use.

Pros

  • On-the-job training checklists
  • Intuitive UI/UX, easy to find training material
  • Publishing news to the entire company
  • Building new courses with easy tools

Cons

  • Connection between various parts of the system, like connecting "Assignments" and "On-the-Job Training checklists"
  • Allowing managers to view Performance Appraisals they've filled out even if the company hasn't "closed" the review cycle yet
  • More quiz question types (without having to buy iSpring Suite)

Return on Investment

  • Enabled us to grow our employee base by 20%+ last year
  • Essentially 1 person has been all it takes to run our LMS (rather than requiring tons of people to manage it)
  • Seamlessly onboarded over 100 new hires using the system in 1 year
