Likelihood to Recommend We have special locations that work differently and I have recommended this to them. Even for locations set up differently, it still applies. Because everything can be personalized to fit the need of the user. These locations have become so adept at it that they have become admins themselves so they can implement their ideas immediately. I have yet to come across a scenario where this is not appropriate
Read full review We have offices set around the world, and hiring new team members in certain countries makes it a bit difficult, especially now to fly out or fly in to help get them situated and fully trained. This really helps close the gaps in between the distance and training. Makes onboarding a heck of a lot easier.
Read full review Pros Ease of use - this product is so easy to use! Building courses, curriculum, tracking, etc. Tracking - we FINALLY have a way to track tests and completion of courses! An absolute LIFESAVER. Accessibility - it seamlessly works on all platforms (iPads, computers, cell phones). Read full review Tracks progress for training. Easily determines a new hires competency in handling tasks on their own. Houses all of our documents and videos in one location versus several. Read full review Cons User accounts: HotSchedules Train has each user in the system by first and last name which is a great tool but this becomes a problem when you have more than one person in your company with the same first and last name. Maybe they should identify by email instead of name so accounts of users with the same name do not merge together. Copying Course or Test: Throughout the system you see the option to copy a course or a test but then the only place you can "paste" is within that same course or test. If I am creating two different courses or test that are similar it would be easy to use this function if it were designed a little better. Instead to "copy" a quiz you need to add all questions to a pool. In order to "copy" a course you would need to just create a new one from scratch. Read full review The subject organization could use work! It's just jumbled and needs folders. It's very cumbersome to have to click back and forth to subjects when you are within a task. I wish there was a larger side bar that could show ALL subjects, topics, and tasks in one glance with drop-down menus. Read full review Usability The training necessary for the managers and trainers is minimal. The system is very intuitive and HotSchedules customer support is the best support team I have ever dealt with. They are quick to respond and keep you informed through the whole process. As for new hires, you just put them in front of a tablet or computer and they just go. Our trainees have better retention and they much prefer to go through the training on-line then having to read pages of documents.
Read full review Support Rating During the entire sales process, the Trainual team was great to work with. After the sale, their onboard process was top notch as well and was very quick to answer any questions and actually were open to customizing the platform to meet our specific needs. They have been great this entire time.
Read full review Alternatives Considered We did not use Wisetail, but we went through several weeks of training calls when we were deciding between that LMS and Schoox. We selected Schoox because of the integration with HotSchedules, something we already used, and the ongoing ease it would provide in shifting job codes and new roles within the organization
Read full review This is our first time using anything like this! Previously we just wrote task items in shared Google documents. It was the best of what we could do at the time, but this is a whole different world, and we love it! Being able to integrate quizzes and photos and interactive video is excellent! Read full review Return on Investment It has made it possible for all workers to take part in fruitful and efficient training. Referral and instruction provided by employers and coworkers. Every member of the team and trainer can access it at any given moment in time. Suitable for all training tests once again.

Allows us to edit and change and adjust as the business does Keeps us flexible and not cemented to a way of doing things Read full review ScreenShots
