Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We utilize Saba LMS as our learning platform for all current product knowledge, new hire training, first-time supervisors, as well as skill set enhancement and development. We have this tied directly with our HRIS to be able to track learning for all employees, in the field, store, remote, or corporate offices.

Pros and Cons

Organize Learning Library
Full Restful API
Connectors for common other 3rd party applications like Salesforce, HRIS, and even Lynda

Error Logging in Systems Admin feeds (SMF)
Customization Capabilities of Rosters
Easier ILT tracking

Return on Investment

Higher cost to implement than estimated (through 3rd party integrators)
Ease of connectivity to our other platforms through connectors or API

Alternatives Considered

JoomlaLMS, Sharepoint LMS, Docebo LMS and Workday Human Capital Management

We had extensive reviews with a plan of what we needed and must have out of the system, including custom learning paths and tracking inside our HRIS system to grant permissions and positions based on completed learning certifications and courses. We weighed each option and chose based on the one that met the most of the must-haves.

Other Software Used

Workday Human Capital Management, Microsoft Office 365

Likelihood to Recommend

We feel as the Saba LMS is great for anyone that has their own content creators or utilize 3rd parties for content. It can even function as an LRS, HRMS, LMS, as has other vast options. It is great for those that want to condense systems into one, however anyone that wants a stand-alone LMS, it can function as this, but works better with direct ties to HRIS.
