Easy, Efficient and professional

PROS

The user interface is excellent, and the courses thorough. All our customers tell us how good the courses are.

CONS

The administration side of things isn't always intuitive, and tracking various customer orders can get confusing unless you know all the specifics of what you want to look at.

Straightforward interface adapted for our organisation, with good, responsive customer support.

Customisable e-learning and risk assessments with organisation-specific user interface.

PROS

Well adapted to our organisation, in terms of user interface and e-learning / risk assessment content.

CONS

Additional user guidance videos would be appreciated - they are more user friendly than the Administrators' Guide. This would be particularly useful for some of the tasks that line mangers should perform (they are not as familiar as general system administrators), e.g. progressing / resolving actions raised from risk assessments.

Staff have been friendly, positive and easy to work with even across different geographies

PROS

The system is easy to use, and easily modifiable to meet our needs. It provides a range of option on how staff can be tested on the learning material.

CONS

It would be great if the size of the display area could be larger to allow for more content, graphics or user interaction.
