Automated creation of manager groups.

Alternatives Considered

Absorb LMS is certainly better than most of the platforms out in the market due as it's far more intuitive and offers far more templates and customizations, while the other two platforms are also good in their respective specialties, Absorb LMS completely nails it in the number of features and functionality it offers. The customizations that Absorb LMS is offering are not available on the other platforms which have been very much beneficial to our company.

Return on Investment

Honestly, I can't really say that Absorb [LMS] has had a positive or negative impact on the business
Some features are better than the last program we used, but nothing earth shaking
Some features are less than ideal, but it's nothing we really feel the need to complain about
