Easy to use and highly customizable LMS
In an organization where the employee training process is very significant, it is necessary to have a robust tool that facilitates the planning and execution of staff professional improvement courses. This platform offers a very versatile set of tools.
PROSI really like that navigating through its functions is very easy. It allows you to design a personalized, interactive and very flexible learning experience. The tracking of participants' progress is very effective and offers very complete reports that provide detailed information for the improvement of the following courses. The electronic signature helps to confirm the fulfillment of the different training stages that are planned.
CONSI would like to see more integration options to strengthen corporate learning paths.

The Standard in Learning Management Systems
In searching for the right LMS for our organization, Absorb was the perfect fit. We have a diverse group of learners and need to provide reporting to auditors multiple times of year. With a small T&D department, Absorb proved to be just the software needed to meet the high expectations of our organization.
PROSAbsorb provides ease of use for all learners regardless of technological skills. Absorb provides the data and reporting that our organization needs.
CONSAbsorb is not as attractive/visually appealing as some of the other systems on the market.
Reasons for switching to Absorb LMS
Thrive was not meeting our needs - reporting was inaccessible for auditors. Customer service was abysmal.

Great Software, Suffers terribly from its customer service.
I rushed into this purchase a little and didnt investigate the level of support that would be offered. In hindsight this would have been a game changer for me as I would have went elsewhere. The software is good, though it doesnt manage blended learning easily which is frustrating. Customer Support is absolutely non existent.
PROSGood User Interface, Good Course Management. Good sync with BambooHR on most things. Good Learner interface. Good Customisation options.
CONSDifficult to manage blended learning. Some factors in course management could use improvements. (Managing assessments) Cannot see how many absences from courses that users have. Some issues with how it syncs with Bamboo(overwriting course information) Customer Support is non existent. 10+ days to resolve any issues. Most issues I have to try and resolve myself by resetting and that causes me other issue. Can sometimes be 'buggy' and will introduce random bugs which can be time consuming to fix and result in me resetting the system sync.
Reason for choosing Absorb LMS
A mistaken belief that Absorb would offer everything I needed, whilst I fell for the streamlined sales patter. I asked several questions during the sales chat that were all answered positively. 'Oh yes we can do that that', 'I shouldnt think that will be a problem' etc.. then when the software is installed already, I discover these things arent possible.

Absorb is a Game Changer for Any Learning/Training Usecase
Loving every minute of our Absorb experience. We are beyond happy with our decision and as we hit the almost 1-year point, we know this is the home for our training content for years to come!
PROSAbsorb is an amazing powerful LMS, but is amazingly easy to use as well. The dashboard customization, course settings, and user management are straightforward and impactful. And if you get some of the add-ons, you won't ever think of switching to another LMS!
CONSFor our specific use case (recurring training vs one and done or certificate renewal), the out-of-the-box reports don't allow us easy visibility into individual chapter completions. It focuses more on course completion
Reason for choosing Absorb LMS
Customization options. Ease of use. Absorb create
Reasons for switching to Absorb LMS
Functionality was lacking. Customization options weren't as robust and Absorb Create was a HUGE game changer for us!
