HubSpot Academy vs. Ideagen WorkRite

I would recommend HubSpot Academy as an 8. It is an 8 because it is very informative and a great start for learning HubSpot CRM. There is every topic you can think of with informative videos, interactive learnings, and practice quizzes. Topics like workflows, email marketing, sequences, etc. However, sometimes the videos are very long. They are more effective when they are shorter and there is more of them. It is a hit or miss when that happens. Also, the trainings do not go into great detail so it is better for starting learning the basics and functions.

When government guidelines suggested staff work from home, the home working course was enabled on our user accounts and it created a timely [way] to gather data and react in light of the pandemic. Certain health and safety training is not covered specifically to our company policies in courses, but we have recently received the legionella risk course and are aware of a course builder which could also house this need.

For HubSpot Academy's usability, I rate it a 9 because it is very simple and easy to use. HubSpot Academy is very user friendly. You can pick a category like "email marketing" then you will have an intro video, follow up detail videos, practice quizzes, interactive practices, and some sections have a certification quiz at the end. It is very easy to navigate sections. The only reason I rate the usability a 9 instead of a 10 is because sometimes HubSpot Academy does not register the interactive practices.

I think it goes straight to the point. It doesn't have a million courses but it's enough with the ones they have because they're amazing.

• Removed the training burden from managers to allow them to use the time elsewhere (2-8 hours)

• The course has allowed users requiring any reasonable adjustments to come forward with these in the DSE course.
• The system has allowed us to record DSE assessments in a timely manner compared to our documentation used in the past which required us to file each assessment separately - now we only see reports with risks and this saves us time.
• The WorkRite platform demonstrates [that] we are committed to the health and safety of our people by providing training and minimizing risk.
