    Looop is very well suited for enterprise-type organizations where there is a diverse set of employees, teams, departments, sub-departments, and lines of business with multiple locations operating in various states and even countries. Looop is affordable when you drill down to cost per user and integrates well with various applications.

    Well-suited:
    1. Building and keeping up to date modular content (blocks).
    2. Maintaining and updating large content library where meaning team members might be working on the same content but using the content in different context (e.g. learning and internal comms).
    3. Creating learning content by new/recently onboarded team members.
    4. Create simple learning courses with some level of interactively, medium interactivity (tabs, image maps, slider reveal images), create different types of knowledge checks/assessments from multiple choice to drag and drop activities); embed videos and other HTML elements .
    5. Integrate with LMS, apply SCORM rules etc
    6. Better to use in combination with other media creation tools like Vyond, Storyline. Some things can get tricky (compatibility).
    Less appropriate: 1. If you need to build highly interactive learning experience 2. When you don't have a team member you can dedicate specifically to customize templates in Xyleme for your organizational needs (looks, functionality etc.) or and to train team members on this software. You'd need someone on your team to collaborate with Xyleme closely to customize functions for your organization's needs. 3. When #2 and you want a modern/in trend looking output and not willing to compromise on what it looks and feels.

    MadCap Software
    • several features advertised as device agnostic or mobile friendly do not work properly on mobile
    • finicky in many ways, sometimes you need to tinker with details for to long to make things work properly
    • many UI solutions/elements that are not intuitive at all (even using the tool almost every day you need to make effort to remember how things are done)

    Looop is much better when it comes on ease of use for users as well as for administrators. So if you company does not have a full-fledged Learning and Developement team, then any HR Generalist can double up as admin with a few click of buttons for the entire company and set up certain metrics and goals and get the employee journey started.
