Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Axonify to deliver onboarding, reinforcement training, compliance training, technical training (job aids) and messaging to employees at our retail grocery stores in 2 states, manufacturing and distribution facilities. The business case involves reducing time employees spend out of location, traveling to/from the main office for learning and development delivered face-to-face; supplementing with elearning on location and expanding access to all levels of the organization.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well-suited to the original purpose of delivering questions on a daily basis; everything beyond that gets complicated. For example, there are a number of program types available to deliver information (certifications, daily reinforcement, self-directed learning, assigned paths, etc.). However understanding how they all fit together requires advancing weaving together of multiple types of programs for individual groups, and requires more time than you would expect. Nearly 3 years into working with Axonify, we are still trying to iron it all out. We also have side groups of customers who meet to help each other because we all struggle with it too.

We have a hard time helping our leaders and subject matter experts understand what is possible and what doesn't work well in the platform, since it is so different and doesn't work as expected. For example, communication to teams is one way - the recipients can't respond.

Different from other platforms is both a PRO and a CON
