Great Option for LMS

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Litmos for all of our company training. Litmos gives us a way to deliver eLearning, whether it's a SCORM file, video, assessment, memo, etc. to our entire staff quickly and easily. All reporting is tracked inside of Litmos so we know who completed courses and who still needs to take them.

Pros

  • Houses all training types in one place
  • Allows us to organize trainings so we can share what is needed with one group, but hide the same content from others
  • Gives us access to reporting to show what courses have been completed and which ones still need done

Cons

  • Quick reports don't let us utilize our custom fields when filtering results. It would be helpful to be able to use a quick report, but filter the report using our custom fields.
  • It would be great to be able to drill down on quick assessment reports. In the area where you see the graph of what questions were correct and which were missed, being able to click on the most missed questions and drill down would be helpful.
  • The eSignature feature needs the ability to lock people out like an assessment does. Once someone eSigns, there should be no way they can go back in and either re-sign or delete their signature by simply starting over, unless an admin gives permission. Currently, the functionality does not let us lock an eSignature like we can an assessment.

Return on Investment

  • eLearning is consistent and can train our staff quicker and more efficiently than instructor-led training
  • We can get memos or compliance trainings out to our staff quickly and have the reporting to show it was completed
  • Having the ability to share eLearning training and sign up/log into Instructor-led training is beneficial for our organization. We use eLearning in most cases, but having the ability to use the ILT features is also helpful in certain situations.

NAVBLUE Leverages Litmos to Build a Scalable Learning Culture

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

NAVBLUE employs 500 employees spread across the world, with offices in Canada, France, Poland, Singapore, Thailand, the UK, and the US, as well as representatives in several other countries across the globe. Being a large company in a heavily regulated and ever-changing industry, NAVBLUE needed a way to train our customers on proprietary products, train our employees, and create a learning culture, for this, we turned to Litmos. NAVBLUE knew we had to revolutionize our training strategy if we wanted to keep growing and driving customer retention. Enter the NAVBLUE Academy (NBA) training team of Instructional Designers who implemented the Litmos learning management system (LMS). The main audience for NAVBLUE Academy training content is our customers, who are global airlines. Secondary audiences include all NAVBLUE employees who need access to all the content available to NAVBLUE customers. Accessing NAVBLUE Academy allows employees to see how our customers are trained and assist those customers in learning more about the NAVBLUE products.

Pros

  • User-friendly UI for learners
  • Very easy to administer even for first-time Litmos MS administrators
  • Pricing-structure is based on number of unique logins vs people registered in the Litmos MS.

Cons

  • Inability to make bulk edits to multiple courses at once.
  • Reporting - the reporting engine is still clunky.
  • Customer support - we have experienced struggles getting them to join us on a call.

Return on Investment

  • I have seen a lot of growth and engagement both internally and with our customers.
  • NAVBLUE internal ROI measures the number of tickets coming into the support team and our content helps to decrease the number of process-related questions. NAVBLUE measures overall customer ROI by determining if a customer can work through processes on their NAVBLUE products quickly and efficiently after they have completed their training plan.
  • NAVBLUE Academy (Litmos LMS) is embedded into all of our employee onboarding and allows us to scale content and access to our customers.

Cons

  • Further detailed support from customer support team (raising tickets) - this has improved over the last month, but could continue to develop.
  • Timings of Webinars to suit UK customer base

Return on Investment

Litmos review from [...]

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

At LegalNurse.com we deliver self-paced online education to Registered Nurses. We use Litmos to deliver the courses to our customers and to track their progress. We have used Litmos for at least 10 years, and it has been a very reliable platform for us. Litmos is mission-critical for my company, because we can't generate any revenue without it!

Pros

  • It is a very reliable platform. Uptime is excellent.
  • We can customize it to look like we developed it in house.
  • Our users find it easy to navigate.
  • We were able to create an automated interface between Litmos and our CRM system using the Litmos API.

Cons

  • The API documentation was sometimes a bit difficult for my CRM developers to follow.
  • When they were part of SAP I felt that this product and it's customers weren't really big enough to matter to the giant corporate parent (but that is resolved now.)
  • I wish I could pay by the month instead of annually.

Return on Investment

  • We generate over 90% of our revenue from customers viewing streaming video through Litmos.
  • The system is always operational.
  • We hardly ever get any complaints about lagging or video or sound quality.
