    My specific scenario is, that I need to deliver courses in two languages to multiple departments, so iSpring helps me with that from beginning and creating courses, to translating, and then enrolling people. What could be better is how reports works. Right now you can check report either by course or by department/person, but I would need to see everything on one page, like every single enrolment.

    For cybersecurity practitioners interested in advancing their skillset in deeply technical matters, Offensive Security Cybersecurity Courses and Certifications offers some of the most well respected, up to date, technically challenging and comprehensive training courses out there; however, users must be very disciplined, determined and resourceful in order to make the most of the high quality content on offer since good time management is critical and "Try Harder" isn't just a motto for Offensive Security Cybersecurity Courses and Certifications given the content could frustrate some inexperienced users that may be pressed for time and don't have enough drive to spend learning a good amount of possibly unfamiliar but essential content and concepts

    Pros
    iSpring Solutions Inc
    • Automatically re-enrolling employees when a certificate expires. Set it and forget it!
    • If set up properly from the beginning, you don't have to do much, with the roles and groups settings, you can automate a large portion of the course management.
    • I can provide visibility to anyone about any employee necessary, allowing me to put more responsibility on my managers, instead of doing it all myself.

    • Labs are representative and designed to emulate what could happen in real life
    • Certifications are well respected and widely recognised in the security industry
    • Prices are not that expensive compared to other vendors etc.

    Cons
    iSpring Solutions Inc
    • Some limitations where you can't create exactly what you want either in the design of interactions or lack of varied interactions
    • Images cannot be moved to where you want them on the interaction slides
    • Layout of interactions can't be adjusted and overides your powerpoint background
    • If you have to edit a course and delete it off iSpring Learn then the records of all the people associated to that course are swiped and there's not a way of retrieving the information.

    • The exams are quite hard to pass and some require a lot of hours to be spent on them which might leave some exhausted
    • Some of the content can be hard to remember since there is a lot of syntax that might be intimidating to users not familiar with something similar from before
    • Perhaps consider more specific, tailored courses rather than courses which cover many topics at once which might not necessarily be within the same niche
    • More human to human interaction could be beneficial to prepare for the exams sometimes

    In the past I could not encourage my students to take online training. The results and the questions were hard to be given. When I used the iSpring Suite along with iSpring Learn, my dreams came through and most of the time my students are online and take good training with my programme.

    Usability
    iSpring Solutions Inc
    Sometimes, things just aren't intuitive enough. For example, burying the catalog in the settings area makes no sense at all. The same goes for permissions and year reviews. It was a massive oversight that really caused a lot of confusion for all of our managers. It caused distrust in the LMS simply because someone who designed and developed it did not think that an employee review should be private to them, their direct supervisor, or the supervisor above. Instead, ANY manager could read ANY employee review. I have mentioned this several times throughout these questionnaires, and as you can see, I still find it incomprehensible that a company that wants to promote its software as a multifaceted solution could be so blind to something so critical, especially in terms of privacy.

    We can say that most of my students attend my classes twice a week and that's not enough for someone to learn. I put some training for them to do at home and they really enjoy doing them. The kind of progress they make is really satisfying for them and they are always learning.

    As a teacher, I used to spend a lot of time correcting my students' papers. Now with iSpring Learn, my time has been saved and everything is done automatically. All the time I can check my students' progress and I know which exams they have taken or they should take. On the whole, online training has really helped a lot of teachers

    When I talked to my colleagues or informed them to search for a programme before iSpring Learn, they were not successful in designing and implementing a programme like this. I am sure they have done a lot to implement it in the best and educational way. That was not that easy as we thought.

    iSpring is a more entry level LMS. It does not have the same level of features and benefits. For example, it does not have the same level of communication capability. It does not have the same level of reporting functionality. It does not have the same ability to build reporting. It also does not have the same level of communication capabilities

    Offensive Security Cybersecurity Courses and Certifications are very comprehensive, regularly kept up to date and, unlike some other courses out there, are quite challenging and technically demanding even for industry colleagues who've been in the field for many years; for this reason, Offensive Security Cybersecurity Courses and Certifications is excellent for your more senior cyber security analysts/engineers as it will enable these technical experts in your organisation to further enhance their knowledge and learn some new tricks that they can then bring back to the workplace to share with the rest of the team
