Litmos
It is well suited for fast-paced businesses or ones that are less traditional with their learning delivery. We deal with live events, so the learning style is excellent for us as it is more vibrant. We have a workforce with a huge range of capabilities, and the e-learning on offer is proven to be universal.

It’s great for the payroll cycle and including once benefits are in the system correctly. The analytics is done well for the reporting. The time and attendance. I like the chat feature but there are limits on what the customer service team can help with and that is frustrating. we’ve had terrible experience with the bwsft and mainly open enrollment.

Cons
Litmos
  • I generally feel that any challenges I experience are due to the vast flexibility the platform has. My gut tells me that my minor issues are actually a result of certain functionality needing to be there to meet the needs of other customers, and it's not Litmos' fault that my specific workflow doesn't fit exactly into their functionality. It's a matter of me determining how I can update my workflow to fit the feature set.

  • Administrative/C-Suite level of canned reports and dashboards
  • Displaying company reminders or documents to sign that are urgent in a way that doesn’t allow an employee to clock out until they have completed the task.
  • More options to build an org chart

For what we need in the very near future, Litmos does not offer us the required capability. Ideally, we are looking for an integrated LMS, coaching, mobile support and content creation platform. Litmos may have the LMS part covered but there are other platforms that do this better along with providing an integrated all-in-one service or at the very least support API integration with other vendors to meet our requirements.

Price point is the biggest driving factor. Paycor has made some strides in the customer service area and we've seen enough improvements that renewing our contract has become more a reality than a pipe dream. The system functions well and our employees are familiar with how it works, so to make a change would be a huge lift for our team

Usability
Litmos
It's overall pretty straightforward to use — both for admins/creators and learners.
  • Teams really give a great ability to decentralize management.
  • Great content creation tools
  • Integrated live sessions
A few wonky workflows persist, though:
  • Reporting has some limitations (e.g., 30 day limit, ugh)
  • Search is rough and we get reports that content can be difficult to find
  • More granular admin/editing permissions would help

Paycor is really easy to use. It is simple and straightforward. They also provide a ton of training to equip you to be able to use their platform to the full extent. They also have customer service chatting with live agents and they have been helpful to point me in the right direction when I am stumped.

Reliability and Availability

I feel like Paycor is always up and running! If they are planning downtime, they communicate it clearly. Every once in a while, I get something that says the system isn't working but it is usually back up within the hour. I typically find by the time that the employees complain about it, that it is resolved within the system.

For the most part, everything moves super fast. There are a few sections (Expense Management) that sometimes take a bit to load correctly. Or if they are interesting, it takes a minute to talk to each other! But reports are quickly downloaded and available! Even data heavy reports run fairly fast!

Support Rating
Litmos
If I could give it a negative rating I would. Worst support from any program I have had. Everything is back and forth in the support ticket. The one time I tried to chat they could not support the question. Their support page is so full of sections and products I can never find anything I need, even with a customized home page. I was hopeful that once they left SAP support might improve but it has not. I don't even know who my account executive is. Nobody has ever reached out to me. I need someone to guide me through best practices for our company and there is nobody to do that.

I feel like support will transfer you back and forth between departments and put you on hold forever. I believe it is very difficult to see the status of an open ticket. During my experience, it feels like the client has to push all communication and request updates from support regularly.

It was a good overview of the platform, but of course it was more of a basic overview of how to use the platform. The team provided a good training, but I would of liked a better deep dive into some of the features.

Online Training
Litmos
Some of the best online training I've taken from any LMS platform. It was well put together and kept me engaged the entire time. It has a good amount of HR Compliance mixed with soft skills training that the team liked. Overall, it has a robust online suite of training that any company can use.

Paycor Inc
The online trainings are super helpful. They have user guides that you can read through, interactive training that will walk you through it as well as plain web based ones. I've actually never had an in-person training but all of the information you need can be found online. They also will do individual support training if you are struggling with a certain area.

Implementation Rating
Litmos
We have done two implementations. The first wasn't completed by me, but the second was. I had to do a lot of data migration across from the first system into the new instance. This was really time-consuming, and it would have been great to have had an option for someone else to have completed this for us. Learning about the tool has also been up to us, and whilst the content was good, it was also high level and broad, and then getting into the specifics of our setup was really just left to us to complete on our own and have a go. We got there, but probably could have been faster with some additional support from a consultant.

Implementation of any new software is going to be challenging, especially if you are maintaining an existing program concurrently. When it is time for dual-processing (both old and new software) prior to going live, be prepared to be stressed. But trust the process and it will be over soon.

Alternatives Considered
Litmos
I made a choice of this tool because of great review message on internet about the advantage of litmos. Also as cost is concerned I saw it to be favourable to me more than other which are Abit expensive. Litmos also have intuitive user interface which made me to fall for it.

I had a demonstration on Emma for recommending health benefits to employees. We offer three health plans which operate differently from one another. While I was impressed with the capabilities, I am not ready to implement AI for benefits because many employees do not understand benefit terminology. Some of the things that the employee would be responsible for entering may not be entered correctly due to a misunderstanding by the employee. This could result in AI recommending an incorrect plan. At this time, our broker works with employees to recommend the best health plan. I need to learn more about AI before I am ready to implement it into open enrollment.

Scalability
Litmos
Pretty easy to scale this LMS and can be deployed companywide in all departments for us. The team's function allows you build separate teams that can easily be assigned specific courses, so it makes it much easier to deploy

I gave it a 10 because we only use it across one organization. However, it has allowed us to break it into multiple departments and layers of management. It is also easy for us to utilize across different locations but still under one master company. They have always provided us support when we decide to change something on an organizational level

Return on Investment
Litmos
  • With SAP Content in mind as well, it has significantly reduced our training costs
  • In terms of user issues on the UI or misunderstanding of how the courses inherently operate, it has increased our Admin need
  • It has increased compliance rates with the ability to auto email everyone and provide reporting to the leaders

Paycor Inc
  • It has freed me up to do more of the fun things we wanted to do in HR, outside of basic policy/evals/payroll.
  • It has challenged my brain and learning. It's both frustrating and empowering to be able to configure the system when Paycor can't.
