NEOGOV Learn is a learning management system aims to make training your workforce easy. The product aims to allow you to train
employees throughout the entire employee lifecycle, increase
productivity, and create a culture of learning.
Absorb LMS is appropriate for any continuing education organization or company that wants a reliable platform to host enduring educational content. It has been a great experience in terms of building and designing courses, monitoring learner progress, and as another touch point for learners to access other resources our organization offers.
Neogov is structured especially for local governments. They understand the needs of their customers and have the experience to help communities of any size acquire talented public servants. This is a public sector solution and probably isn't best suited for the private sector
Usability - Both the User and Admin Experience is so simple and intuitive. The admin tools are clearly defined and laid out, yet the functionality makes it still powerful.
Integration - We used the Scheduled Data Imports and Exports to connect with our HRIS tool. After the initial configuration, it has worked reliably and gives me all the custom data I need to make assignments and reporting a breeze.
Design - I know it's covered a little bit in the Usability above, but the site just looks fantastic. There are a lot of options to customize and fit your branding requirements and all of the thumbnails/posters/billboards/etc give a very visual and appealing look to the LMS. Much better than I've seen in other products.
Succession Planning - Neogov offers various layers that prepares users for succession planning for government based positions (i.e. Police Chief, Fire Chief, etc.).
Specialized Recruitment for Governments - Neogov specializes in helping governments find and hire within the diverse and ever changing field of municipal governance.
Applicant Tracking - Neogov streamlines the application process when the time comes to hire a talented candidate(s).
Uploading documents is perceived as hard for employees, especially with video uploads.
Sometimes the program lacks and then an employee has to start all over.
Spacing courses is possible but not with a certain amount of time, which would be useful if the next course could open after a week/month instead of when the employee finishes the previous course.
We have no plans to move away from Absorb at this time. It has all of the functionality we are looking for in a learning management system and we have a lot of info stored in our LMS system for trainings including all of our current and past employee transcripts. It is also getting easier to manager with being able to connect the LMS to ADP to update employee reporting/department/location/etc. We don't have a need or reason to move away from Absorb at this time.
I know the support team is hard at work! We are currently dealing with a confusing issue where our buttons don't connect to the pages we assign them, and they have been looking into this for a number of weeks. I hope they will unravel the issue soon so we can role out our modules!
Our organization previously used LMS365, which did not support eCommerce and had difficulties supporting external users. (My understanding is the issues with external users may have been directly related to our Microsoft implementation and not directly LMS365's fault, but it was nonetheless a deal breaker for us.) Docebo was the runner up in our LMS selection process and I spent significant time chatting with the team at Docebo. It seemed like a strong competitor to Aborb. Ultimately, Absorb was both slightly more cost-efficient for our scenario.
[NEOGOV] offers a complete and modern talent management system for the Public Sector. It was built for the public sector which allows it to stand alone within the HR field. When using products such as Indeed.com and Linkedin local governments are lost within a much larger universe.
Course enrollments and completions have increased by 500% since implementation
Employee visits to our learning centre have increased by 300% since implementation
Cost saving from a time perspective as we can automate a lot of the admin work we used to do.
Pre Absorb we had about 3 or 4 e-learnings that were available. We now have over 100 that are accessible to all employees
Ability to seamlessly integrate with Workday and Udemy allowing all learning to be in one place, people data to be imported from WD, and very comprehensive reporting
Neogov saves time for our HR operations. For example, candidates can complete pre-employment forms within the platform's Onboard feature. This saves resources (paper, ink, etc) and time allowing for a more efficient hiring process.
Customer Service Efficiency - Unlike many commonly used HR products (ADP, Quickbooks, etc.) Neogov understands the challenges that are unique to local governments. When needed, their customer service teams are friendly and helpful saving you the headache of explaining your particular issue.
Employee training features - Our employees are provided with insightful training opportunities which can be tracked and monitored annually.
