Looop Software

Pros

I did not like this software at all. Very useless

Cons

it did not do anything that I thought that it would have done

Pros

The main pro's about Looop are:

- I can pull content together in a matter of minutes

- They have a support team available to me round the clock

- I can pick their brains on initiatives

- I don't have to explain to users how to work Looop as it is so easy to navigate and get what you need

Cons

I have made a few feature requests but have been informed they are coming soon! I do not think there are many cons at all.

Pros

Loop makes learning simple, fun and interesting. The digital resources I've seen are much more powerful than the usual online courses you tend to see in the corporate world

Cons

Pass! I really enjoyed using Loop, it's been great and easy to use. I highly recommend using Loop!

It makes my role incredibly exciting; I love being able to produce content for employees that will help them develop and thrive within the business in a 'snapshot' approach to Learning & Development.

Pros

The adaptability; we are able to build engaging content for our employees across a number of functions - from onboarding to compliance training.

Cons

We have come in to a few difficulties with running reports; however the customer support we receive has been excellent and the feedback we give enables the development of the content to only support us further.

Pros

It mimics exactly how I would learn outside of the workplace (YouTube, Google, etc) so it feels so natural and easy to use.

Cons

I wouldn't class it as 'elearning' as it is far beyond that. It needs its own category for education

Pros

Whilst the tool is so easy to use and simple to create really engaging digital resources, the team are always on hand to help and provide their years of expertise.

Cons

I really struggle to think about anything that I actually dislike about this software.
Great tool all round.

Pros

How easy it is to use as admin and a user, also that everything is designed with the user in mind - it matches how we interact with tech and learning in our everyday lives

Cons

The team and the product are so great, and they continue to innovate with the changes they implement

Looop is still developing and therefore does 'break' on a fairly regular basis. The team are always quick to rectify the situation however, if one of users can't log on in their first attempt often they won't bother again.

Pros

It allows others in the business to create their own content, utilising knowledge experts and encouraging peer-to-peer learning.
In a busy work environment where people don't necessarily have the time to participate in off-the-job training, Looop provides a quick & simple way to share knowledge and engage people in learning and development

easy and wide deployment of learning content, no bugs, no set up issues- just plug and play

Pros

how scalable it is very quickly and how little ( or none) skill is required to build and deploy content via looop

Cons

some aspects of seeing progress bar on UX - hard to use with learning paths
also would like better search feature

We can distribute our own content to all colleagues really easily and then track the engagement with really great analytic tools.

Pros

I like how easy it is to create our own content that's unique to our company and then distribute it to all colleagues. We also really love the analytic tools that allow us to track engagement.

Cons

The homepage could use some work to look more appealing and could maybe do something to make it more obvious what resources are in each work space.

Off the back of using Looop we have found a home for all of our content, which is accessible to our users and can be accessed on the go. A perfect solution for what we need, and it helps that the support team are always quick to respond and implement changes

Pros

It's hugely user-friendly, it is easy to create and amend content. Navigation is easy, and the content is displayed in a very clean manner. The support team are really helpful, and they run the software dynamically, making adjustments to your needs which is great for us

Cons

For our needs it would be great if we had the functionality to input text boxes for our users to write in, which we could then download, and also host PDF documents

Pros

As a fast-paced, dynamic and customer centric business, it's important to us that the tools we use for our people reflect ASOS, luckily for us Looop does exactly that, which is why it's been our flagship learning platform for the last two years. In my experience I've never encountered a product that is so in tune with today's learner and I'm continually impressed with Looop's desire to be completely different from anything on the market. A recent survey showed us that our people want content at the point of need and available where ever they are (mobile, desk etc.). Looop delivers this for us in style through its slick UX and mobile first design. Our people feel comfortable using it because it feels familiar like a website they would use in their day to day live, it's frictionless and easy to use - not like some stuffy LMS that makes it hard for people to find and access anything. Another plus point for Looop and one that shouldn't be underestimated is how on brand we can make it look and for a fashion brand, this is crucial. Once again with the slick looking interface, flexible customisations and visually enticing layout, Looop looks the business (our business!).

Cons

The events section needs to improve before we start to use it more frequently- however I know further advancements are in the pipeline.

Pros

It is easy to use, very intuitive as as an admin and as a user.

Loading content is super quick and the functionality has improved every month.

The variety of content from links, video, quizzes gives the option to create resources that are timely and useful for learners

I like the push functionality of the system which enables you to create appointments to view for learners

I like the events functionality so you can create a blended approach

Cons

The analytics need to be deeper but the team are working on this so am comfortable that is in train.

The video compresses so sometimes can be glitchy when uploading

I would like the events functionality to enable admins to download lists of attendees

Pros

How quick it is to add content
Clean and simple look
New features added regularly
Friendly support
Developers take on board feedback
It's different to any other e-learning type tool I've used in the past
It's versatile - we are using it for a range of topics from company communications, to displaying survey results, company procedures, induction and basic training programmes

Cons

Sometimes I need to spend longer than I'd like trying to get a photo to fit on the cover page (but looop support will help if need be)

This has allowed us to truly shift the learning culture in our organisation to a resource first approach. The team at Looop are so supportive and work really closely with us to make sure our learning has a great impact.

Pros

Looop has been a great platform for us- there are lots of reasons for this, but one of the strongest is around ease of use. It is so intuitive and in an incredibly short time we can get people up and running using Looop. It helps us to bring learning to our people really quickly, exactly when they need it.

Pros

Our customers love it, it's so easy for them to use. It's also so quick and easy for us to use. The Looop team are always there to help with any questions. Looop has made it easy for us to reach our customers when and where they need help.

The resource approach is all quite logical and the platform was easy to use.

Pros

How quick it was to get started and share what I needed to with my team. The team found this a far better platform to use too with the mobile app.

Pros

It is simple and intuitive - the dashboard is easy to use the functionality is quick and clean the features work really well

We're using Looop as part of our blended approach to training - upskilling both our colleagues and our customers with bespoke online and in-person learning experiences. It's important to us that we create solutions that reflect the needs of every learner group. The ease of creating content means that we aren't restrained by a one size fits all model. Every customer or department can have content tailored to their needs.

The way Looop is structured means learners can access the resources they need when they need them. This helps us to prep people before workshops and to provide valuable resources afterwards to cement learning and provide immediate answers back in the workplace. We can continue to support learning in a way that we have not been able to do before.

Pros

The support and guidance from Looop has been fantastic. Their approach and techniques for writing simple and genuinely learner-focused content have been inspirational. Looop have guided us on a journey taking material and experience from face to face training to create simple yet effective content that works brilliantly online. The platform is really straightforward and easy to use so once you have content written and images/vids made you can have it uploaded for users to access in no time at all.

Our audience are mostly accessing learning on the go so the app was a really important feature for us. It looks smart and is easy to use.

Pros

It's been a pleasure working with Looop to curate engaging learning resources for our employees, who have given us great feedback on the look, feel and nature of the content. The guys at Looop have worked hand in hand with us and consistently listened to our feedback to continue evolving the tool, and offer much more than just a social learning platform. They consult with us on a regular basis with research they're doing, what they're seeing in the market and some great tips - it's a very refreshing and collaborative approach!

Cons

Occasionally we get bugs, but anytime there's an issue we get a very quick response (in less than 1 hour) from the team to resolve.
