Overall Satisfaction with Absorb LMS

My role for Absorb LMS in our organisation is system admin - to manage and oversee the backend of the platform. One of the challenges we face is the report generation for all course evaluations at once. Currently, we have to access each course individually to download the reports, which is time-consuming. The scope of my use case includes generating custom reports, publishing courses to specific user groups, managing user account creation, etc. I handle the backend tasks to ensure the Absorb LMS is running smoothly for the organisation.

Pros

  • To create group and assign courses for a specific group (ie, department, role)
  • Automated message notifications (i.e., enrollment, completion, failure)
  • Integration with our internal system (i.e., Single Sign-On)

Cons

  • A master button for course evaluation reports so it saves time when evaluating learner feedback across many courses.
  • Streamlined Onboarding - New joiners are able to access the particular course and clearly defined learning paths when they are onboarded
Pro: Notification System is helpful but we seldom use due the preferences across different offices. Room for Improvement: it would be helpful to have an easier ways to extract consolidated feedback / evaluation data, rather than downloading reports one by one.
  • Reporting & Insights (Absorb Analyze or Absorb Amplify Direct)

Do you think Absorb LMS delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Absorb LMS's feature set?

No

Did Absorb LMS live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Absorb LMS go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Absorb LMS again?

Yes

Well suited:

Onboarding new hires across the region (by
'Department"). For example:, we can easily assign the particular course
based on department and role. Their Customer Support is quite efficient and responsive! Thank you. Less appropriate:
Currently, I think Absorb LMS does not allow notifications like
enrollment or failure messages to be targeted at specific user groups WITHIN a
course. Once these message notifications are enabled, it will
affect all groups assigned to the course, not just the target groups.
