TalentLMS vs. Lalilo by Renaissance

TalentLMS is user-friendly enough for someone new to LMS management can get a site up and running in a relatively quick manner. It is rather intuitive to operate. My needs have been a rather small scale of 400 learners and TalentLMS more than meets the need to produce a professional-looking and operational website to send customers and staff. The point here is that although I do not know how well it can be up-scaled, it certainly delivers for small to medium organizations to need to get content online

The students love to work with Lalilo. They love to earn the badges, treasures, and stories. I love that I can look at the reports and see if my students are proficient, or still needing help in specific areas. Lalilo is a great way to reward students for at the end of each week for working hard throughout the week.

• Report creation and distribution
• Course creation, launch, and individual assignments
• End user friendly for people with little computer skills
• API integration with such platforms as ADP, Microsoft.

• Lalilo allows each student to be placed at the exactly right level for their skills.

• Lalilo gives students the ability to request easier or harder lessons based on their current skills.

• Email notifications have arbitrary limits on what information can be included. For example, you cannot include the user password in any notification email regarding course enrollment, group enrollment, etc.
• Notification emails are not sent out in a reasonable time frame. Sometimes, it takes over 20 minutes for a new user to get their registration email.
• It would be nice to get reports in the base domain containing customer user fields from various branches.

• I like the progression that the students go through in order to practice concepts they are struggling with, but I wish they had videos or some way other way for the students to practice other than just asking questions.

The ease of use, the robustness of the offering, and familiarity. It does everything we need and probably more. We likley don't utilize all the functionality it has as it does what we want it to without having to dig that deep into its tools. Their course library also has saved us some time in terms of saving time from creating some basic courses.

It has been very useful to our students and staff.

The system is intuitive. It does not have a lot of features that are hidden behind secret menus or elsewhere. There are often multiple ways to get to the same place through different menus without having to go back to the home or root menu. It makes things pretty easy. Additionally, if there is something I can't figure out, there is documentation available to help with that.

Students can easily access through their shared password storage for instantaneous login. I have never had an issue with them getting kicked off or having content that doesn't fit a need.

I have never run into an issue with downtime in 5 plus years.

It loads fast. Screen transitions are quick. Nothing seems to ever lag.

Quick answer, comprehensive, and customized. I sent an email with multiple questions and feedback about their new UI, and the agent addressed all of them directly and honestly no sugar-coating and no call center lingo. Most questions can also be addressed directly in their UI with a really good help center widget.

Implementation was relatively easy. When we set up a second branch, we needed a little help. But the support area is well-detailed. My clients had no experience with an LMS and their digital skills were limited. We had a long way to go. Nevertheless, it was relatively easy. It was rather quick!

Both are good, but the pricing and general value proposition of Talent LMS are better than Trainual in my opinion. Trainual is a bit more modern and cleaner looking from a user interface perspective, but it comes at a higher cost. Both platforms provide very similar features in the way of general functionality and user experience, but Talent LMS wins because of its better pricing model.

Lalilo is a helpful program for our struggling readers. It gives an alternative to LLI, SRA, or OG - which are all utilized within our elementary settings

The product can create as similar or unique experiences for different branches as you want for training purposes

• Managers have used this internally to get new employees up to speed and trained faster. It's a great onboarding tool.
• Externally, we help our customers better self-serve when they understand the software they are using. This reduces calls to Customer Support.
• We've used training as an added incentive for our customers to maintain a higher level of service, resulting in increased ARR.

• For a student who only knew 18 alphabet letters when beginning Lalilo, the student has increased overall performance to recognizing 80% of the "ut" family of words.
• Students in grades 3 and 5 are increasing their reading levels from K and 1 to the end of year 2.
