CrossKnowledge Learning Suite vs. Kallidus LMS

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 great for just about any organization that does onboarding and training as it saves time and assists in keeping your team on track while bringing on new people. It helps to streamline a typically very difficult process for smaller teams. It has helped us immensely.

• CrossKnowledge provides learning content across a wide array of subjects, and this content is delivered using various delivery methods (interactive e-learning, videos, reading material, activity journals, etc.)
• CrossKnowledge’s learning suite makes it easy to set up and roll out a highly customised learning management system.
• CrossKnowledge offers a mobile app that makes it easy to access both the learning management system as well as their learning content on the go.

• Allows targeted training by staff group, role or location - simplifying access to specific training
• Web based and supported on various devices -allowing access via any web enabled device
• Entirely customisable - Easy to make the system look the way we need to ensure corporate image

• 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

• Simpler hosting of e-learning - scorm objects can be slow AICC seems to be the best solution
• Options to link / interface with other workforce systems
• Greater flexibility of learning pathways

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.

Staff satisfaction and ease of use

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.

This is the only product I have used and it is great. I have not explored other options and we have not had the need to so far.

• 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

• Significantly increased compliance of mandatory training
• supported more staff to choose elearning over face to face options, increasing efficiency
• Automated many of the admin processes that underpin training
