  • Content Creation (Absorb Create)
  • Reporting & Insights (Absorb Analyze or Absorb Amplify Direct)
Content creation: allows us to custom build courses with any learning objects we like. For example, implemented a pre-test into 5 courses to measure how much learners were impacted by a course after taking it (by measuring change in pre test and post test results). Reporting- can mostly easily pull the data we need to report to stakeholders and leadership.

Creating beautiful and useful content that can be housed in one place for all of my company's training, onboarding, research, and upskilling needs. The intelligent recommendations save me time as I am searching for the things I need in the admin menus. I love having access to the thousands of courses through Absorb Amplify that can meet the varied needs of upskilling for my colleagues.

Absorb Create is an easy tool for course creation. It is very intuitive. And with the AI enhancements, it is easier than ever to create content. It takes minutes vs. days to pull together the course information and design needed to create a comprehensive and easy to use course. We also use GO1 as a content provider and with over 80,000 courses, there is a course for every need.

We have multiple courses developed for Compliance Training, which requires ongoing reporting for all departments in the City.

The BizLibrary is pretty limited, so we have not received good reviews on that from our internal users.

Absorb Create is a dream to work with. It is intuitive and has a huge range of possibilities to ensure that our courses look and feel exactly how we envisioned them! It allows for precision in colour choice, spacing and allows you to make the quizzes in each section fun and engaging.

eCommerce has streamlined the purchase process for courses, making it easier to enroll clients into our paid course offerings. Coupon codes make it easy for us to track lead generation sources for our sales. And we utilize the department-specific pricing to help us honor any specifically negotiated course prices without additional manual processes.

Absorb Create has been very helpful in the creation of our online courses. We have to do our courses in dozens of languages and they have made the process very simple and easy to follow so that we can get our courses out in a timely manner. We have heard great feedback.

We absolutely love Absorb LMS! Although I am not an Absorb LMS Create Master yet, I was excited that our account manager [...] advised me of "office hours" now being offered! I plan on attending as many of those sessions as possible! I think Amplify is nice for a quick lesson and we used it pretty regularly when we first got started. I have not received any information about updated courses. That would be a good addition! When new courses are added to Amplify it would great to receive an email about new courses so we can check time out!

  • Ecosystem Integrations (Absorb APIs or Absorb Connectors)
  • Social Learning (Absorb Engage)
The Engage module gives us a visually impactful homepage where we can easily spotlight new or recommended trainings. The Absorb LMS connection with our HRIS automatically takes care of user management so we don't have to deal with SARS forms and manual admin work. It also gives us all the data we need to accurately assign compliance or business-specific trainings.

We have used many of the Absorb Amplify courses and have also integrated custom created content and third-party libraries. Being our first LMS system, this was a HUGE improvement over how our company had previously managed training delivery and record-keeping. We are much more compliant with mandatory training and have made good use of the training transcripts to demonstrate competency requirements for many of our industry, quality, and customer audits.

Automated reporting and dashboards puts our learning data at our fingertips and lets us easily pull reports when needed.

Absorb Create let's us take powerpoint trainings that have been used for a longtime and update them, add quizzes, and make them consistent with our other trainings.

Content libraries makes over 60,000 courses available to us on a variety of topics that are requested by our employees.
