Likelihood to Recommend The learner dashboard is beautiful along with the complete interface experience. It doesn't take long to get accustomed to it. The steps for a user to purchase an ecommerce course is very similar to other popular ecommerce site such as Amazon. This is very advantageous since the general user is familiar with sites like Amazon. The process of using Enrollment Keys is not quite easy and friendly to utilize.
Read full review Good for an organization who are in health care and in ABA. Not so good everyone else. There are courses specific to the industry, however, the glitches and the lack of support from the customer service staff makes it hard to recommend the product.

Read full review Relias Learning Management System has a massive catalog of pre-built trainings available for employees to take at their leisure Relias Learning Management System has many compliance & hr related trainings based in the system already based on laws and regulations Relias Learning Management System makes it easy to record & build your own trainings to add into their system for specific employees in your company to take as you require Read full review Cons Wish there was an automated cadence of Sandbox refresh Wish licensing was based on active users not just those added to the system (potentially issue related to our interface) Wish there were more options for administrative bulk uploading capabilities without having to engage Absorb LMS team Read full review Reporting is abominable, hasn't been updated in over 4 years. Organization of courses, modules, training plans, skills checklists, manuals, and tests— a lot of options and very challenging to differentiate Their mobile application is not user-friendly, it crashes, doesn't load certain courses, doesn't play audio on other ones, and has very poor performance. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.
Read full review RMLS have become an important component of our agency's support systems. It provides consistent context for education and trainings as well as being flexible to allow staff to access it on their time. We have found many of the content sessions to be very useful for staff development and supportive of our overall agency goals and strategies.
Read full review Usability Absorb LMS is easy to use from both a user experience and admin experience. For users, navigating the site to complete assignments or finding courses to develop new skills is very user-friendly. As an admin, the course creation tools walk you through each step simply, but have a ton of functionality to support any of your training needs.
Read full review I enjoy the ease of setup. It has a large course library and selection filter to choose by profession and/or module type. Even though it has a generic user interface and navigating tools, but it gets the job done. It offers the basic and simple delivery, tracking, and reporting.
Read full review Reliability and Availability The customer service team is top notch. They have always been readily available and quick to assist regardless of the day or time of the call
Read full review Performance Absorb LMS's performance is very reliable and consistent. Pages load quickly. Report are generated within a reasonable amount of time (even with significant amounts of data), etc. Nothing seems to slow it down.
Read full review Support Rating Absorb LMS's client service managers have been extremely responsive, efficient, and available. While we pay for a higher level of support, we have found it well worth the investment. We've been less pleased with the accounting side of the organization, but that has little impact on the delivery of training to our clients and employees.
Read full review Our implementation specialist was second-to-none, and upon 'graduating' from implementation, we were underwhelmed by the support after that. Due to the thoroughness of our implementation, we have had few occasions to contact support. We've been passed among several different contact persons, but have always received answers to our questions.

Read full review Implementation Rating It was very easy to implement. It's cloud based, so the most difficult part was getting users loaded.
Read full review Alternatives Considered hands down favorite in look, function, cost and service. Others were close but could not meet our external and internal cases. Our current one (we looked at them again) did not have 40% of the functionality or value, despite the bargain cost, it was not worth it to continue. Only new hires used our LMS for onboarding because they had to; no one went back for more training. With Absorb our classes are more dynamic and targeted.
Read full review Relias has significantly more and higher quality training courses and video offerings than any competitor in the space. At the end of the day, it's about the caregivers receiving as much information they can to be successful.
Read full review Scalability This is one of the main reasons we chose Absorb as our LMS. It is a very user-friendly application that is able to be deployed across multiple departments in geographically dispersed locations. It works amazingly well for us.
