Field employees appreciate the user-friendly interface of GreenLight, which ensures a seamless training experience. McLeod Health relies on GreenLight to manage their comprehensive employee training programs, encompassing both e-learning modules and instructor-led courses.

It is widely embraced across the organization for administering annual training updates and job-specific training.
HR and compliance departments find immense value in using GreenLight to administer and monitor trainings.

Intuitive and Easy to Navigate: Several users have found the GreenLight LMS to be intuitive and easy to navigate, especially after taking the hosted admin training. This has allowed them to quickly set up training activities and events for their organization.
Good Support Availability: Many reviewers appreciate the availability of good support provided by GreenLight. They mention that they can easily reach out for help if needed, which greatly enhances their user experience.
Fully SCORM Compliant: Users praise GreenLight for being fully SCORM compliant, enabling them to set up and publish advanced eCourses on the site. The ability to assign and track completion of these courses is straightforward, making it a valuable feature for managing online learning.
Limited Enrollment Capability: Some users have expressed frustration with the current system's limitation on enrolling in multiple events or sessions of the same course, as it only allows for one enrollment per training activity. This has made it difficult for them to set up and track completion of multiple enrollments and they suggest a more streamlined process.
Inaccessible Training Documents: Users have requested the ability to search for and download training documents in the Media Bank, as currently they are only accessible under 'Training References' and are not searchable. They believe that training documents should be set up in the catalog as training documents, which can be linked to, searched for, and downloaded on demand.
Lack of Customizability: Several users feel that there is limited flexibility in customizing notifications within the software. They suggest improvements such as creating customized messages for individual elements of a qualification and having one qualification contain both certification and recertification requirements. Additionally, they find the software lacking in terms of customization abilities overall compared to other platforms they have used.

(1-1 of 1)GreenLight Newbie
- Greenlight allows our field employees to have all the necessary instructional manuals and forms at an easy reach without having to print everything.
- Greenlight keeps good track of annual re-certifications and sends them out on time.
- The notifications make it easy to communicate with the field.
- Greenlight allows detailed customization from the admin side.
- Our company purchased GreenLight along with Red Carpet and Open Hire about a year ago. GreenLight went live for us January 2014. I have been making all student, org chart, and any other changes or additions manually as we have not had our payroll processing system integrated with GreenLight. This has been very difficult as we have over 3100 employees. UPDATE: The integration from our payroll system to Greenlight went live on September 17, 2014. I had to make some adjustments to the way some qualifications were assigned, but there were no issues with any training going out.
- The integration team has been eager to help, but sometimes a little incompetent in the knowledge necessary to make the integration happen as quickly as possible.
- I had only two weeks to learn GreenLight before we went live. I need a little extra help with things at times, and the support team is very slow to respond and slower in solving the issues. UPDATE: The support team is always there for me when I call now. They are very knowledgeable in helping me make things happen in Greenlight. My only issue is that they do not have full knowledge of the integration side and that causes some problems in advising me.
- Overall, GreenLight has had a positive impact with employees in that it has helped us to consolidate forms, manuals and field instruction in one easy to use place.
- The more I learn about GreenLight, the more uses I can see for the future.
- Employees report that they love the ease of use on the student side.
