Overall Satisfaction with Lessonly
We use Lessonly when launching new features. We go through feature training, and a follow-up test is sent to us via Lessonly. It is also used during new hire onboarding to learn about the company and our product.
- Lessonly allows you to create various types of tests (I.e multiple choice, freeform, etc.)
- You are able to include videos, images, and slides in Lessonly, so onboarding can take a self-service approach.
- Lessonly is a robust tool with a lot of features, so it isn't always the most intuitive. I'd love to use the tool more, but it can be intimidating and time-consuming to create tests.
- It has increased employee productivity by allowing current employees to take a step back from new hire onboarding by creating self-service tools within Lessonly.
I have used one other similar software in the past, and Lessonly is much more user-friendly. The previous software was extremely clunky, and even after going through training on it, I never fully utilized it because of how overly complicated it was.
Lessonly is well-suited if you are a hiring manager responsible for onboarding new team members. It is a way to save time by adding a self-service component to your onboarding approach. It is also great for continuous training. If you work for a company that has a constantly changing product, this is great to ensure everyone is well trained on the changes. For example, we use it to ensure our customer-facing teams are prepared to talk about new software features we release.
