    CrossKowledge offers a superb library of learning content and a serviceable learning management system to go with it. If you’re looking for robust reporting or want to minimise the time you spend managing learning administration, you should look elsewhere.

    It is a simple and easy-to-use interface. It can sync easily with your mobile app if required. My company uses Edcast for different purposes i.e. for learning resources to grow us within the organization.

    Cons
    Wiley
    • As a learning management system, CrossKnowledge’s backend is missing several key features for learning administrators
    • It is immensely difficult to set up learning events and managing invitations to learners
    • Reporting is extremely limited: you can only see the reports that CrossKnowledge seems necessary; you have very limited customisation options, and many of the basic reporting functions are simply impossible

    • Add new courses is bit confusing.
    • searching new skills.
    • Keeping track on previous work.

    CrossKnowledge’s learning content makes it a no-brainer. Besides, while their LMS isn’t as powerful or robust as we’d have liked, it’s still serviceable and most of our learners aren’t directly affected by it.

    Moodle is a far more powerful and flexible learning management system for learning administrators. Where CrossKnowledge has the edge is in its fabulous learning content library.

    It's easier to use then BambooHR and it is simple and self-explanatory. So being part of this organization I always prefer Edcast.

    Return on Investment
    Wiley
    • It’s extremely difficult to evaluate ROI of a tool like CrossKnowledge, but it’s only been a little over a year since we rolled it out across the organisation and we’ve already made it part of our performance management system
