Overall Satisfaction with LearnUpon

LearnUpon is currently only being used for professional development for real estate professionals. We offer licensing and ce courses through it. We utilize self-paced and ILT courses.
  • Great interaction for student users, easy to locate dashboard and classes.
  • Simple to set up courses on the admin side, many options to create the course you desire.
  • No integration with a payment gateway that shows in a students account what courses they have purchased at what price.
  • There is some confusion on when registering for the LMS that only a username and password need to be supplied, it does not require a first and last name.
  • Limited function of coupon codes, too many restrictions make us come up with work around in order to utilize coupons.
  • They ability to group students by the course type they are selecting not just custom data fields.
  • A positive impact on the ability to host our own courses in a robust LMS.
  • A negative impact on the learning curve and limitations we have with students and users logging in.
  • Trakstar Learn (formerly Mindflash)
LearnUpon is much better than Mindflash, we were more limited with Mindflash and glad to be working in LearnUpon for a place to include all of our educational offerings and not just a portion of them.

No

Did implementation of LearnUpon go as expected?

No

Would you buy LearnUpon again?

Yes

This is a great benefit to our students when it comes to their courses being in their account immediately upon purchase. The student user experience has been good. The admin user experiences are a little less great; there are restrictions with coupons and grouping which wasn't apparent at the product demo but have become frustrating issues as we move forward.
