Overall Satisfaction with Absorb LMS
I use Absorb to create and manage training content for a data science software company. Our software is powerful and intricate- high-quality training is essential to our customer and employee success. We use Absorb Create to develop eLearning content, then the LMS to manage and deploy to both an internal and external user base. We track user progress, evaluate our courses, deploy badging systems, and distribute certificates using Absorb. Another portion of the company uses the LMS to administer and manage compliance training as well.
- The admin reporting dashboard is amazing. Customizing widgets with course stats for our courses allows us to see (or share with stakeholders) visual representations of our progress immediately upon login.
- Publishing SCORM content from Create into the LMS is seamless. Maintenance and editing is a Breeze!
- I have worked in many systems in my tenure as a designer at multiple companies- the admin side of Absorb is by FAR the easiest to learn and use. Many systems have a deeply nested structure that is difficult to navigate - Absorb has lots of features and options but doesn't nest them in a way that difficult to understand.
- The LMS is flexible and provides options regarding course setup that is nearly limitless. If you want multiple lessons within one course you can do that- if you want only one lesson per course but then you want to build a curriculum you can do that. You can enforce orders with ease. Set up enrollment rules with ease. Use email messaging from within the system- or turn it off for individual courses while not affecting global levels. Those are just a few examples of things I have done in Absorb with ease that couldn't be done in other systems I worked with.
- The ability to combine courses on a course report would be really nice!
- The built in ability to share course badges on linkedin.
- A current goal and focus of my team has been improving the completion rates of our courses. Using Absorb Create to design and content and te Absorb LMS to administer new content- early results show-we have doubled our course completion rates!
- SumTotal Talent Development, Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport) and Adobe Connect
I joined a company already using Absorb so I did not pick Absorb but given the chance- I would pick Absorb over any other LMS I have worked with in my career. Absorb is powerful enough to do what I need it to do, but organized well enough that the features and functions I don't need don't inhibit me from getting to what I DO need. From my experience, that in itself makes Absorb stand out in the crowd!
