Overall Satisfaction with Lessonly Knowledge

Before Lessonly, we were using a pretty old LMS that was hard to use and update. Lessonly helped us to create more content more quickly and distribute it company-wide. We use Lessonly for company-wide courses, onboarding, and any continuing education. We have even used it to update teams on new products and services we offer.
  • It's incredibly easy to build content.
  • Able to distribute content quickly.
  • Great reporting on what courses are being taken and who is taking them.
  • Reminders and notifications are great.
  • Reports can be a little tricky at first. It's not as "built out" as the other parts of the platform.
  • If you're wanting to sell or offer courses to people outside of your organization, this might not be the best software for you.
  • Easy to use lesson builder
  • Auto reminders for courses
  • registrations for live events
  • The biggest impact is time savings in creating courses. What used to take one person several hours to do, now takes less than an hour of time. It was incredible to see the impact.
  • The other area it affected (less hard to quantify) is how the content itself became more accessible. Because the content is in the same format and in a library of other courses, people have become more inclined to take more courses than just the one assigned. There are also way more course creators now than ever before because of just how easy it is to make courses.
At the time, Lessonly just seemed like the easiest lesson builder of the others. The others software had great features but, at the end of the day, if it was hard to make courses, I knew people wouldn't do it. Lessonly had all the right features without the complexity. That was what did it for me.

For fast and reliable lesson builders that anyone can learn, Lessonly is fantastic. We went from someone having to know basic HTML just to put a course up, to anyone who knows how to use a simple editor being able to take courses and assign them to their teams. We saved so much time and effort. In the case of customers wanting content, it becomes more tricky. There's not necessarily a good way to offer courses to people outside of your organization.
