Overall Satisfaction with Absorb LMS

We use Absorb LMS as our Learning Management System for the Pharmaceutical Development & Manufacturing group of our organization. As a professional development team, Absorb LMS helps us manage courses and track progress outside of the GMP environment, which is intended for compliance trainings, while our focus is on development trainings. Through Absorb LMS, our team offers custom learning content to over 4,000 employees, and are able to track their training metrics in an intuitive format.

Pros

  • Intuitive, user-friendly interface that is simple and modern to customize and design
  • Customizable dashboard that helps generate and track relevant data.
  • Scalable infrastructure that support thousands of users
  • Easy to manage courses, uploads, and updates.

Cons

  • When setting up Instructor Led Courses with recurring sessions for a single cohort, the schedule can be confusing, particularly regarding the start time and end date. Even though the sessions recur on different days, the system often displays the same start and end date. This can confuse learners, especially if they don’t click “More” to view the full recurrence details. If the system recognized the recurrence properly, it would be ideal for the end date to reflect the final session in the series.
  • Improved learner engagement
  • Reduced costs
  • greater LMS utilization
It is very intuitive, not just from an admin perspective to manage courses and track completions, but also from a learners' perspective. It is very easy to find courses, search for courses, and track personal course progress. The interface is well designed, which makes it simpler for our audience to navigate the portal and find what they are looking for.
  • Content Libraries (Absorb Amplify or 3rd Party Libraries)
  • Reporting & Insights (Absorb Analyze or Absorb Amplify Direct)
  • Ecosystem Integrations (Absorb APIs or Absorb Connectors)
  • Intelligent Recommendations
Absorb LMS support has been tremendous. Whenever our team has questions or tickets, we get answers almost immediately. Specifically, our Client Success Manager [...] has been outstanding in terms of helping us navigate through issues, resolving them, and answering all of our questions in a timely manner.
