TalentCards vs. Totara LMS

TalentCard is a great system to use for Learning small amounts of helpful information, in tiny lessons from anywhere. I think that it has the potential to be perfect in some ways if perhaps allow the students/learners to respond and ask questions in detail. Right now, I'd say since most things are taken from the cards as we learn, card customization would be an excellent feature.

As a real estate services company with properties (& employees) in six states, Totara LMS is well suited for implementing and our employee learning platform to our many team members that work remotely and cannot benefit from regular in-person learning courses. Totara LMS's comprehensive and customizable reporting system also allows us to accurately review and tell the story of employee performance and talent development, while tailoring this reporting to the needs of different internal stakeholders.

• Reporting can be a little inflexible - sometimes, the report cannot be customized to have all the columns you need as they are not available from that area of the LMS.

Easy to access both local support and support/advice from other Totara LMS users as we keep in regular contact as a part of the totara government users group. Our vendor also keeps in touch with this group and a lot of knowledge is shared. It's easy to access the Totara LMS users academy, and one of my administrators has also set up a local forum where they ask each other questions and share knowledge as well. Our vendor is easy to access via our support plan and we have monthly catch-ups with our account manager where we hear about anything new coming up.

They don't compare, it is two different products, but Jira helps manage products and keeps a virtual to-do list. While TalentCards is something that can be added to Jira's list as a scheduled learning session. I haven't used any product close to TalentCards before. We were looking for different ways to learn together and this software really fit the bill.
