Auzmor Learn vs. Bridge LMS, Skills & Performance Management

Overall Auzmor Learn works well handling the basic Learning Management Systems needs for OSHA general industry (1910) where employees are in an office, business or industry setting and stay or return to their workplace frequently. Most us a desktop computer to do their training. In the construction industry 90% of employees are in the field nearly 100% of the time. As a specialty contractor that falls under the OSHA standard (1926) Auzmor has listened to my concerns and challenges and has begun to address them by customizing features.

Bridge is suited for scenarios where you need ppl to complete steps in order or test that they received the correct amount of knowledge after watching a video. I do think Bridge is less appropriate for companies that use it in external training scenarios as there is some key functionality missing. We gotten very good at brainstorming and finding solutions/ways to get Bridge to work the way that we need it to

• Assessments can now easily be uploaded in bulk using a CSV template.
• Successful assessment submission(s) from a learner will trigger a notification to their respective manager/instructor/admin who assigned the training to them.
• We can create a lesson through video formats, documents, embedding links, YouTube & Vimeo.
• It can create and track our live training both classroom and online.
• The course is publicly accessible with public weblink.

• Superb Customer Support: Getting help from Bridge is so accessible; whether it's via our customer relations rep, the chat or email option. I know I can always get immediate help when I need it.
• Events: The Bridge annual conference is a wonderful way to connect with Bridge and other companies who use it to get inspired and share ideas.
• Constantly improving: Every Bridge comes out with additions and improvements to make the user experience better.

• There was some missing functionality that was raised to the Auzmor team, which they are very receptive of that feedback and work with you on providing a solution, work around or addressing it in a future release.
• Being able to attach certain file types for training exercises was not supported.
• There was some limitations on resizing some images and text boxes during course content creation.
• Some of the whitelabeling and cutomization of the UI has some limitations.

• There is a 'language' that is used by Bridge staff which takes some getting used to. So many terms are 'tech speak' and it does take some extra time to learn those terms.
• The menus and links to reports, etc. are not as intuitive as they could be. I find myself frustrated at times trying to navigate. I don't automatically relate terms like 'insights' and 'instance' in the way they are used by Bridge.
• I've asked for a notification via email when a user completes the program. I recognize that this has been a work in progress but it seems like it should be a relatively simple fix.
• Initially, Bridge provided sessions which were designed to educate a new user on every aspect of everything Bridge has to offer. Much of this was a waste of time in our case. The training sessions should have asked first what we intended to do and provided only the information needed to get us going. We needed only a push in the right direction, not an overview of every possibility we may encounter.

From a functionality standpoint the software continues to meet the requirements we had set for the LMS we chose to implement. The addition of new features has increased the likelihood we will continue to use Auzmor Learn. As long as the usability of the software meets the needs of our learners we would not have a reason to look at other options

It has been very useful to our organization in getting compliance training complete. We have a 24/7/365 organization with some folks only working 2 days a week during the summer only, many work full-time jobs elsewhere and can't make weekday programs and facilities don't have to alter schedules to get mass numbers of people through training like you have to do with live training..

The platform is simple to use. I can have a new employee come to orientation with no computer skills and get that person up and running on Auzmor within minutes. On the admin side, Auzmor is intuitive and easy to use.

Even our folks who fought using it realized how easy it was once they took their first course.

Excellent customer support. They work with you to set up the courses, tell you industry best practices, and a good way for structuring courses. Whatever additional features are needed, can be discussed at length with the Auzmor Learn team and they are very open to solve and add these to their product backlog for future updates.

Always timely and knowledgeable assistance. Very patient explaining answers to novice users.

Our challenges were internal - nothing with Bridge. We had regular, productive meetings with our implementation representative.

There are a lot of LMS options out there and it was quite daunting trying to see how everyone compared and differentiated themselves. While they all may have been able to provide the LMS functionality we would eventually need, Auzmor stood out in the conversations we had based on functionality, pricing and support. It was not just an LMS product, but a partnership we were getting to make sure we would have everything we would initially need and also for where we wanted our training to be for years to come.

Our previous LMS was Symphony. Hands down, there is no comparison. Switching to Bridge was the best decision made by our management team. All we used Symphony for was for our monthly compliance training. Many times people would complain that they would need to retake their compliance course as Symphony would lose records. It became a hassle having to retake a course because you didn't save a copy of the completion certificate. Bridge allows for more than just compliance training AND we are able to see if learners didn't complete their courses via the reports.

• Bridge Learn's native authoring tool makes it easy for SMEs to enter content directly into Bridge.
• One of the unexpected results of using Bridge Learn has been the high demand for professional development material. Employees want to use Bridge to learn more about the careers that they aspire to. This has increased learner engagement significantly on the platform.
