Limos is great for introducing a topic, and taking refreshrs yearly on info already know. Some courses are better suited to a live course, with discussion and questions. We support people with complex medical needs, and review with a nurse is critical.

As a real estate services company with properties (& employees) in six states, Totara LMS is well suited for implementing and our employee learning platform to our many team members that work remotely and cannot benefit from regular in-person learning courses. Totara LMS's comprehensive and customizable reporting system also allows us to accurately review and tell the story of employee performance and talent development, while tailoring this reporting to the needs of different internal stakeholders.

• Ability to record video and screen casting through the platform.
• Social component similar to Facebook.
• Users can rate tasks and courses for immediate feedback about the content.
• Exceptional customer care.
• Easy to use for the content creators and for the end user.

• Litmos is simple and straightforward for learners to use
• Litmos' look and feel are highly customizable through javascript and stylesheets
• Litmos' API is fairly easy to use and complete

Incentivized

• Easy user interface with good ability to brand to your own environment.
• Relatively easy to administrate yourself.

• Sometimes the platform isn't as intuitive as I'd like
• Frequent updates that can impact the guidelines we establish for our internal employees
• Catalog access for courses is linked to programs requiring participants to retake a program instead of just replaying a singular course. This is being addressed in a future update.

• I generally feel that any challenges I experience are due to the vast flexibility the platform has. My gut tells me that my minor issues are actually a result of certain functionality needing to be there to meet the needs of other customers, and it's not Litmos' fault that my specific workflow doesn't fit exactly into their functionality. It's a matter of me determining how I can update my workflow to fit the feature set.

Incentivized

• The expansive capabilities of Totara LMS out of the box can be intimidating to those first starting out with an LMS.
• Cost of deployment is high and the ramp up is time consuming.
• Help documentation is limited, but we hear it will be improved in the future.

Since I started in our organization, 360Learning has evolved and keep evolving and makes the experience easier and better.

For what we need in the very near future, Litmos does not offer us the required capability. Ideally, we are looking for an integrated LMS, coaching, mobile support and content creation platform. Litmos may have the LMS part covered but there are other platforms that do this better along with providing an integrated all-in-one service or at the very least support API integration with other vendors to meet our requirements.

You don't really need to be trained to use it, it's like social media. If not, there's full documentation available, it's not a steep learning curve at all. There's lots of advice about how to better use the platform too. I don't see any need for improvement here but left a 9/10 JUST in case.

Litmos is reliable, stable, and easy to use. Support is amazing, with great response times and customer success managers. I've implemented Litmos in 3 organizations and am working with another one currently. The features and functionality Litmos offers rival those of any other LMS out there.

It's never been an issue. It's always good to go

Litmos is rather quick and responsive for our learners. Reports can be a tad slow depending on the amount of information you are querying.

We have amazing support from the Customer Success Director.

If I could give it a negative rating I would. Worst support from any program I have had. Everything is back and forth in the support ticket. The one time I tried to chat they could not support the question. Their support page is so full of sections and products I can never find anything I need, even with a customized home page. I was hopeful that once they left SAP support might improve but it has not. I don't even know who my account executive is. Nobody has ever reached out to me. I need someone to guide me through best practices for our company and there is nobody to do that.

Easy to access both local support and support/advice from other Totara LMS users as we keep in regular contact as a part of the totara government users group. Our vendor also keeps in touch with this group and a lot of knowledge is shared. It's easy to access the Totara LMS users academy, and one of my administrators has also set up a local forum where they ask each other questions and share knowledge as well. Our vendor is easy to access via our support plan and we have monthly catch-ups with our account manager where we hear about anything new coming up.

It was a good overview of the platform, but of course it was more of a basic overview of how to use the platform. The team provided a good training, but I would of liked a better deep dive into some of the features.

Incentivized

Some of the best online training I've taken from any LMS platform. It was well put together and kept me engaged the entire time. It has a good amount of HR Compliance mixed with soft skills training that the team liked. Overall, it has a robust online suite of training that any company can use.

I was not part of the implementation.

The company received a change in learning style from the old to this newer style. From our perspective, it was just a case of swapping out the scores and adjusting the language. The initial show-and-tell about the library we could use and how to use the materials was instrumental. From the learner's perspective, it was all very self-explanatory.

We had a lot of reasons for choosing to partner with PSA for our Learn 360 platform. The others were a much larger price, were not as easy to use, were not as feature-rich, and didn't have us plugged into so many relevant titles at any time. They also didn't seem as adaptable or have an AI component built in.

Litmos has been more robust for us in terms of reporting as well as course organization. We also have the ability to use a subsite (another instance of Litmos) for groups outside of our main organization.

Incentivized

Overall we find that Litmos' capability to organize folks by "Teams" is adequate for our needs... though there are some limitations, especially when it comes to supervisory staff being able to assign content to their employees. It would be nice for hierarchal assignments to be possible (directors being able to assign content to their direct reports... AND those under them).

Incentivized

• We have gone from having 0 learners to having 24 actively engaged learners in a year.
• We have put our customer service folks through customer service training and have been able to retain 2 demanding customers.
• We have gone from having 1-2 new courses per month to having over 100 titles available on demand for our learners.

• Simplified Reporting: The Litmos Reporting engine has made it easier for us to generate detailed reports quickly and provide these to managers, helping them better support their teams with learning and compliance.
• Increased Compliance: The availability of relevant compliance courses, ease of access to those courses and the ability to report on them quickly has helped us as a global business to improve compliance rates and timelines.
• Improved Onboarding: Our onboarding process, and in particular, our induction process which is composed of a series of meetings, assignments and content study is being better tracked and delivered via Litmos features which support these things.

• saved frontal training
• more employees passed training and faster
