Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use Absorb LMS for training purposes. WE also have our own training recordings and make it available on Absorb so other user can go back to the training in case they miss or if they want to re-cap. The problem we were having was that trainings were done, and users were not able to participate, we then have absorb so solve this issue. It works well.

Pros and Cons

Simple and Fast access to trainings
Support our Business
Fast reach to tech admin support if needed

More automations
Automations with Partners, such as Go1
Less manual work on selecting users one by one, to give them credit for courses

Likelihood to Recommend

There are few automations that needs to be done and I would like to see before I fully recommend to other partners.
Absorb is a great platform of training, where you can house our trainings and development. But it's not always automated where it speaks to different systems.
