Comparison of Learning Management features of Product A and Product B
TalentCards is very well suited for field based, hands on roles where people need quick access to information. For us, that means technicians who are mobile all day and need short training, refreshers, or job aids they can pull up on their phone right before or during a job. It works especially well for onboarding, SOPs, safety reminders, and knowledge reinforcement over time. It is less appropriate for long form, deep training that requires extended focus, discussion, or complex assessments. If you need multi hour courses, heavy compliance training, or classroom style learning with facilitation and interaction, a traditional LMS or instructor led format is a better fit.
We use Mindflash for a lot of our internal training needs, and it is very versatile to accomplish your needs in training employees in a variety of different areas. I've never tried to use it for external needs, but I feel like the software at the advanced level wouldn't suit that need very well at all. At the Pro level, you get a lot more flexibility, but the cost is prohibitive for the size of our company.
Integration with Salesforce using professional level software. Mindflash's limited integration to only work with the higher level of Salesforce product.
More brand customization for multiple product line trainings.
Communication of trainers using Mindflash and sales team. We have multiple trainers sending invitations for training with no way for them to communicate with our sales team when a person has completed training.
The number of people using Mindflash is only going to rise and we need a system that remains easy to use for everyone involved. [update] This is especially vital now that we've lost head count in critical departments. Getting all of our training and Safety objectives met would be impossible without Mindflash.
The learner experience is excellent. Technicians can get into the mobile app quickly, navigate content easily, and find what they need without training. For a field workforce, that is where usability matters most, and TalentCards does that very well. Admin usability is solid, but it is browser based, not app based. All content creation, user management, and reporting require a desktop or web browser. The interface itself is intuitive once you are there, but it is not something you can realistically manage from a phone.
The interface is just so simple to understand. It's clean and efficient. We showed Mindflash off to the Safety group, who are not computer gurus and they were beyong excited to use it.
Any problems or questions we have had with Mindflash have been handled promptly and effectively. I normally use the online chat option but have had to correspond with them through email and phone as well. We have never had an issue languish for weeks or months with Mindflash. They either fix the problem or let you know that the software isn't capable to handle the need at that point.
If you're going to develop a short course to demo the product internally, don't bother avoiding your own topics. Mindflash rolls whatever content you create during the trial into your production environment when you decide to buy. The time taken to go from not having a system to being live with Mindflash is virtually instant. What you'll be wanting for is time to develop content and people to test it out.
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.
This is an alternate software that we have looked into, right now we don't have the need for the increased flexibility that Lesson.ly provides with learning from your mobile or tablet. We haven't seen a lot of those things as particularly useful for our current training methods, but we see the quality to be similar.
Mindflash has had a positive impact on our business because it allows us to train more new users with less effort, and ensure that trainees have access to the course materials for a period of time after they have started using our software to do their daily jobs. Review of the course materials allows them to get answers to common questions without having to submit requests to our support team, thereby reducing the administrative burden on our resources.
