    As we use Classroom Manager exclusively for internal purposes, I can only say something about this area. I would definitely recommend it, it's a great tool. Whenever we use it, we feel that people really thought about the way they have designed the software and the functions they have added. The main reason why we decided on this tool was because of its extensive functions. We currently only use like 10% of what it could do (subjective estimation), but we love that whatever learning challenge arises, the Classroom Manager can handle it.

    Skilljar is fantastic for structured onboarding processes. If you're
    looking to streamline and standardize the onboarding experience for your
    customers, especially for software or complex products, this platform
    is a gem. It allows you to create step-by-step courses guiding users
    through functionalities, reducing confusion and accelerating their
    learning curve.When you need versatility in content delivery, Skilljar is spot-on.
    Whether it's video tutorials, interactive quizzes, downloadable
    resources, or live webinars, the platform accommodates various formats.
    It's perfect for accommodating different learning styles and ensuring
    engagement.
    For scenarios that demand highly complex simulations or immersive
    learning experiences, Skilljar's capabilities might fall short. While it
    supports interactive elements, extremely sophisticated simulations
    might require additional specialized software or platforms.

    Cons
    Intelligent Media Systems AG
    • The tool has a ton of functions, which makes the navigation in the backend sometimes a [little] tricky.
    • Nothing to add :-)

    • Would love to see parent/child courses so that when something is updated in the parent course that change is automatically reflected in the clones of that course.
    • Features that allow for the translation of content to allow access to content across languages.
    • Re-onboarding process when the usage of Skilljar changes hands within out company in order to address knowledge gaps.

    The learning curve for Skilljar is not too steep, and I've renewed our contract twice now. I've been able to add additional administrators and get them up to speed on platform functionality within a day. Plus, Skilljar provides awesome resources to help you learn how to use is. The Help Center has articles for almost everything, and when in doubt, their amazing CSMs (like ours, ...) provide exemplary support/advice.

    I have opened several support cases in the past and at times felt like little was being done to resolve the issues I was having. For example, when searching the use against a training credit, Skilljar said the code was fully used, yet only 1 had been used. The support team seemed to not have interest in learning why this was happening and ensuring it does not happen again. The issue was resolved with this particular case, but I have no idea if it was the only training credit having this issue. At times I feel like the issues we encounter do not seem as important to the support team

    The process of choosing an LMS took several months and involved many different people and wide rating criteria. What convinced us and made us choose Classroom Manager was the feeling we got every time we used the software or interacted with the company. They know exactly what they are doing, they were always there to support us and as already mentioned: when using the software and browsing through the functions, you just feel that this was created by experts that know their stuff.

    Skilljar provides stronger customization features, more code snippet options, more styling tools, and more effective integrations. These include Credly, Salesforce, and SCORM. Additionally, the catalog is all part of the same system, making it easy to manage. The analytics tools are also more robust, and the customer service is much more helpful and responsive

    Return on Investment
    Intelligent Media Systems AG
    • It saves a significant amount of time and money to have everything in one central place.
    • In our industry having skilled people with the right knowledge is a MUST to stay ahead of the competition. With the analytic & insight tool, we can track the learning process of our employees at a glance.
    • One of the, if not THE most important point: Employee satisfaction. We have a dedicated area where we provide a wide range of free courses, covering a variety of topics. It started as a test to see if anyone is even interested but quickly became a fundamental part of our company branding strategy.

    • Our customers seem to be getting onboarded efficiently. Giving our customers a good experience helps us retain them longer.
    • So far, we are still not able to come up with solid metrics that it provides evidence of ROI. If Skilljar could somehow come up with clear, actionable metrics about customer success and how that relates to ROI then I think it would be vastly better. To be fair, we roll the cost of using Skilljar in the overall price, otherwise, we would charge customers and have a revenue stream to measure.
