About Learning Stream

Learning Stream pairs well with two types of programs: those that provide asynchronous video learning, and/or those that need a more robust registration management platform than most LMS platforms offer. Continuing education tracking, testing, issuing certificates of completion tracking, and payment integration are all part of platform. You can also upload videos so that learners can sign up, pay for, and get quick access to learning content just as they can for live online or in-person offerings.

Learning Stream also integrates with Canvas and Blackboard.

Send automated email notifications to attendees to confirm successful registration or cancellation, along with sharing other event-related notifications. Learners can also opt in to receive SMS reminders and updates.

The robust analytics and reporting capability help users filter data by category, membership type, assigned instructor or any other user-defined criteria.

Pros:

Learning Stream's flexibility is by far one of its biggest pros. We have been thrilled with the mobile responsiveness as many of our clients don't have any other access.

Cons:

Due to the amount of flexibility within the program it can be a little difficult to learn initially but their customer service by far makes up for it!

Good Online Registrar (Could Great With a Little Work!)

Learning Stream provides a cost-effective online interface for online registration acquisition and data management. A first-time online registration service customer might face a significant learning curve to make the software fully operational. The e-mail help & support team is very effective, though I dislike having to contact them for often simple tasks that should be self-resolvable with a decent online support module. With a re-build to the back-end client interface, this would be a top-notch online registrar service.

Functionality

Pros:

The form-builder is fairly straight-forward an easy to work with. Manipulation of form-builder hues and such to generally match the appearance of your existing website is easy. Interfacing billing with our Merchant Account provider was not an issue. In the end, the software accomplishes the intended goal of successful event registration and billing, though we do feel “lost” when using it a lot more often than I desire. The overall cost of use is the most attractive feature of this software.

Cons:

The back-end of the software is extremely "clunky" and difficult to work with in most all respects. The client messaging module is outdated and unable to even provide a true proof of your message appearance before being sent. Many features are unintentionally “hidden” and difficult to find. The overall GUI needs serious reconstruction. Data reporting for each form item/question is available, though no filtering of data is offered, you must take data outside of the software (Excel, etc.) for filtering. One of the most significant issues is the lack of a quality (self-initiated) help & support module. The existing help feature is poorly designed and rarely actually provides a customer solution. After an initial telephone consultation for software set-up, all help & support is by e-mail messaging. Problem issues are typically solved in a relatively short order, but there is not a live support desk to turn to. A good online help & support module would be, well, very helpful!

Reasons for switching to Learning Stream

We sought to change our online event registration service provider for several reasons. (1) Cost - The fee to use Cvent had grown to beyond being cost-effective for our event. (2) Lack of available reporting to meet our event & billing needs. (3) Off-shore help & support phone rooms staffed by persons who had great difficulty understanding and/or speaking English.

Complicated and complex system that gets the job done but doesn't win any style points.

Wanted a registration tool that could handle breakout session registration and would allow us to approve/decline individual user registrations. Happy with the way this aspect of the tool works.

Great Experience Using Learning Stream

Learning Stream has automated our registration and reporting process. Also, our registrants find it simple to setup an account and register for classes.

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

1. After the initial setup of courses (confirmation emails, reminder emails, evaluation forms, and certificates), the registration process has allowed registration to be automated and registration easy to track. 2. The ease of cancelling / refunding registrations. 3. The ease of transferring registrants to a different class. 4. Ease of running reports 5. Automatic emails for waitlisted attendees and when a person cancels, waitlisted receives and automatic email letting them know that they have been moved to the registration list and has 48 hours to pay the tuition fee. 6. Ease of seeing how much revenue is being received for each course. 7. Courses can be easily copied for ease of setup for future courses. 8. Account setup allow attendees to maintain a central location to view their certificates as well as track previous courses, and print receipts. 9. Learning Stream customer service is the BEST! They always respond quickly to any of our questions.

Cons:

1. Attendee notes can only be written for confirmed registrants. It would be nice to write a note for non-confirmed attendees. For example, if a person does not complete the registration and a follow-up phone call is made by a person on our staff, a note cannot be made to record the phone call. This results in making duplicate calls to this person. 2. I wish the registration lists could be sorted by different columns without generating a report.

Reasons for switching to Learning Stream

1. Student Manager did not have the capability to have attendees complete an online evaluation form and receive and automatic certificate via email after it the evaluation was completed. 2. It was also very complicated to run reports. 3. It was very SLOW to run the program.

Ratings Breakdown

Value for money

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Learning Stream is flexible and robust and has handled every situation we've thrown at it. We were starting from having a lot of manual processes for our course registration needs, so in one sense, anything would have been an improvement, but we really defined what we needed from a bonafide registration system, and Learning Stream rose to the top of the list in our search and evaluation. This past year of usage has only confirmed the validity of our findings, as we've thrown both anticipated and unanticipated situations at it and the system has always had a solution that seems in line with its design, and not a "workaround." Our daily user of the system, who shouldered all those past manual processes, is thrilled with the system.

Cons:

If you want breadth of choice, that tends to mean complication. So Learning Stream has a bit of a learning curve and a lot of settings that you need to make sure are set properly before making an event live. You want things to be simpler, than you get fewer choices, and that's just the trade off. That said, Learning Stream's support is top notch, both in the implementation phase with individualized training, and help desk support in terms of responsiveness and clarity. Their knowledge base is also very detailed, and will get you most of what you need to know. If there are any questions, they have always been there to answer them.

Reasons for choosing Learning Stream

One of the critical pieces the others didn't really have was retention of a registrant's course history, continuing education hours, and continuing education certificates. And a robust system to have most of that be automated and user accessible through a user portal. Having a portal for instructors to manage their assigned courses was also a key criterion.

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

The software is easy and natural to use and, for the most part, the features meet my current needs. I have experienced very little issues with bugs or down-time. Cloud-based, so I can use it wherever I am. The cost fits more in-line with my budget (no per registrant fees) than other software I have looked at. Doesn't have a million features (that I, at least, don't need) that can just confuse things. Support is timely and helpful.

Cons:

I wish there were more options to customize how the registration page looks visually (looks just a bit "amateurish" compared to cvent and others); more options to customize statements (specifically statement when using [StatementMain]; a more streamlined/efficient way to do group registrations (in my experience, users find the current way confusing and too much work). Would also like the option to customize the credit card receipt that is sent to customers and have the ability to turn that off (i.e. just have the statement that shows the payment). Would like the ability to share a link with registration information with others. Less important, but worth mentioning, is the File Library, which I feel needs a major overhaul as far as how files are managed.
