Bridge LMS, Skills & Performance Management vs. Khorus

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

Khorus just seemed like a waste of time and money. I'm not sure what it's well suited for, but there wasn't a way to objectively measure your tracking of goals. The visual was nice, but all the goals were so subjective and really not helpful. It's also quite possible that I had the wrong approach.

• Bridge is designed for the user so it is intuitive and easy to use.
• Bridge includes an authoring tool so building custom content is fast and easy.
• Bridge does a good job of providing user information for managers. Managers can quickly and easily see how many courses their reports are enrolled in and if anyone is overdue on required courses.
• Bridge is also built with learning science in mind. There are multiple options for assessments, including an option for verified tasks to be completed to demonstrate proficiency.

• I honestly found Khorus to be good for keeping a log of my goals.
• The software itself was easy to navigate
• It wasn't super buggy

• Bridge could improve their categorization feature for trainings; folders would be great!
• I'd like to see more ways to add content in the Bridge native environment in the future. Being able to create tables, infographics, and other training materials right in the system would be a great time saver.

• It seems like a glorified spreadsheet at times with a cleaner interface.
• The objectivity of goal tracking was absent.
• I don't see that Khorus serves certain teams very well, such as a customer support team. Our goals don't change very often and the ones that we do have are very tedious to log.

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..

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

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.

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.

I much prefer Asana to Khorus. It's not only good at tracking but also a task manager. You can see that you are heading towards your goal in an objective approach, assuming that you laid out your project accordingly. Additionally, we use 15Five to get that extra insight as a manager to ask our team how they are doing and if they reached their goals, what's getting in the way, ect.

• Certainly, Bridge was not an inexpensive option when we were reviewing platforms. To date, we have not seen a positive ROI but believe that will happen in the near future as we expand an offering of an additional program.
• Reviews from our users indicate that they appreciate the professional and easy to use features Bridge provides, along with the video based design of the program.
• The program we developed with the Bridge platform supports our position as educators in our industry.

• We ended up leaving Khorus and now use 15Five & Asana.
• I think Khorus is a good idea but wasn't quite there in execution.
• The initial creation of my goals was a good starting point for accomplishing them. I had to hash out the longterm solutions I was hoping to accomplish.
