4 years past implementation. Our first LMS. We went through an extensive selection process.

Efficiently administer our organizational learning.

Pros

Highly configurable. Customized interface for our employees, we were able to simplify use of menu and tools for increased usability.

Cons

Documentation in wiki is hard to navigate. Recent acquisition by LTG promises improvement to documentation and tech support.

Long standing user of Net D

Pros

For the end user the tool can be intuitive and user friendly if configured correctly. Relatively configurable in order to achieve multiple desired outcomes if the system infrastructure is understood

Cons

Sometimes the inability to think a element of functionality through In order to deliver its full potential. Some great ideas just not always deliver as exspected.

Product is organized well but lacks good integration. Product enhancements are slow to delivery.

Pros

Reporting and ease of use. Product does have APIs (although not consistent in their structure) to integrate with other products. Report wizard provides additional functionality.

Cons

API inconsistency and lack of standards; little support for multiple assignments within the organizational structure.

Robust system that is flexible and reliable

This LMS was definitely designed by an engineer, but the support that this vendor offers is nothing like it on the market; Fast response and willing to listen and fix problems. We not only used this product for an LMS but we were able to customize it meet other internal needs for grading and scholarship uses. This LMS is great with elearning and has a lot of options with different types of media offering and certifications. This system could use a little updating for its facilitator user interface and social media components, but overall a very reliable system that had great support and very configurable. Once you learn the layers of setting up a course, this system is not that hard on the backend to manage. This system is in my top 5 of best LMS's that I have worked in.

Overall LMS works for a large health system

Pros

easy to use for the Learner, cloning, group loader, LMS Administrator training was very good, has all functions you would expect in LMs

Cons

reporting cumbersome, auto-enrollments not user friendly, difficult to find user guides or solutions for questions with user guide

NetDimensions lacks customer service

Have used NetDimensions for over 2 years. Product has the features that you would expect and more. System functions good. I would classify the system as not that easy to use for admins. Takes a lot of system knowledge to be effective. Multiple bad experiences with account managers dealing with basic problems including a long integration process that was finally stopped.

Still very new. Inherited software. Customer service is excellent.

Pros

It seems like there are a lot of cool functions. I am how we still too new to effectively evaluate the software. Training coming soon.

Cons

Not necessarily intuitive. I still need training to yo use everything. It seems like it will be a great software. Can't wait for training.

Not recommended

Pros: lots of features.... Cons: but impossible to master, instruction and guides are inexistent or really hard to get (2 persons in the company have access to a wiki), you pay for storage and training, the reporting system is cumbersome, not user friendly...
