Skillsoft

A great help for professional development

Commenti: My experience with Skillsoft has been excellent . New hires attended the initial classroom training and after that they were enrolled in a step-by-step program with Skillsoft. We could monitor progress and identify any problem with enogh time to intervine and help.

Aspetti positivi:

Skillsoft is the best resources for people who want to keep learning and developing skills for work and personal life. It offers a huge catalog of courses and excellent step-by-step training to achieve certifications, gives the opportunity to build a portfolio and facilitate compliance in many areas of knowledge.

Aspetti negativi:

Everything is adequate and high quality in Skillsoft. Nothing to complain about.

Skillsoft-Percipio

Commenti: Compliance Training is so easy with this Percipio. All new hires that are set up automatically get the required compliance training that is crucial in this day and age.

Aspetti positivi:

This product has so many options to offer as it relates to training, compliance. A great LMS tool and the customer service is outstanding.

Aspetti negativi:

In the beginning it was a little intimidating learning how to navigate and set up employees. As time has passed, it has definitely gotten much easier to use.

What more could I ask for?

Commenti: Overall a generally amazing experience since I've used it

Aspetti positivi:

I found the interface very easy and simple to use

Aspetti negativi:

Customer support could be a little better.

Legacy LMS that was really a Content Portal turned LMS

Commenti: If you have purchased the Skillsoft catalog, and you are getting SkillPort as an addon for no additional cost, then it is fine to use and perhaps less problematic than asking Skillsoft to make their catalog available to another LMS. Otherwise, avoid. There are many other LMS and learning portal options that are better. Many of them for free.

Aspetti positivi:

Surpringly, the one feature I can vouch for in the system was the ability to update eLearning content without de-registering users or causing them to lose progress in their courseware. I have seen several systems where this is not the case.

Aspetti negativi:

Skillsport seems to be an LMS that was built around the fact Skillsoft offered a large content catalog, and needed to offer tracking, and also had to allow companies to upload their content into that portal because customers wouldn't want an LMS for just Skillsoft and the expense of a second system for their own content. As an admin of the system converting over from an LMS (which they acquired), it was a very clunky system to user as an Admin as well as a user. The UI on the Admin side looked like a Windows 3.1 application (the user side was a bit better, but still dated). The basic setup of any course was overly complex, taking more steps than was truly required. The reporting was extremely weak. There was raw score and pass/fail, but no question-level analytics.

Comprehensive learning platform with great resources

Commenti: My overall experience with Skillsoft has been positive,with valuable learning resources and useful content for skill development

Great Training Tool!

Aspetti positivi:

I think Skillsoft is an excellent training tool for teams, managers and anyone working in customer service. I like that wide range of courses that Skillsoft offers. It offers the great benefit of saving your progress in each course. I really believe that it has a course for everyone. I've recommended several trainings from Skillsoft to my team members to improve their work performance.

Aspetti negativi:

I would like for newer courses to be uploaded more frequently.

One of the best self-paced learning platforms I've used. Great for quick sessions or certifications.

Commenti: This software helped prepare me for some essential business certifications that helped me land a job soon after.

Aspetti positivi:

This platform is great for improving your business and technology skills. its has a wide variety of courses from the basic such as Time Management to more specialized topics such as CompTIA industry certifications. The courses are structured in a logical progression which does not require new users to need a lot of 'hand holding' to master the concepts. The content delivery system is simple and easy so that users don't need to be tech savvy to start learning. Content is delivered in a mix of formats including video, text, and interactive simulations for some courses. Unlike other some other platforms, the content is broken down down into small time portions so that you can learn one concept when you have a few minutes to spare. This make it easier for persons who can't commit to hours at a time to get started. The platform is accessible on Windows and Mac systems and even mobile devices using Android and iOS. The makes for great anytime/anywhere learning as long as you have an internet connection. Companies can have their own branded home page and customise what content they want available to team members. There is also a set of Skillport apps that allow for offline viewing of courses. Team members can share recommendations and motivate each other to learn through the Skillport community.

Aspetti negativi:

For a platform so well established the app could be better. While it does allow you to log into your account and search for courses, it doesn't have the other bells and whistles that make the web learning platform so advanced. For example you can pick up where you left off in a course you started on the web but you have to search for the course from the full set. The app doesn't seem to sync history with the web version. There's also no sign of the transcript section in the app which shows you all the courses you did before. Hopefully there are planned improvements.

Excellent LMS

Aspetti positivi:

Very easy to find content and constantly updated.

Aspetti negativi:

The audible books doesn't saved where you left them.

Excellent learning software

Aspetti positivi:

I have used this while working with Ericsson and I found it to be an encyclopaedia for learning programs. It's got everything. From the most basic to the most complicated. A must try

Aspetti negativi:

The software takes time to load. It's kind of heavy and plus the UI could be much better. Some of the learning programs take a lot of time to load.

Makes training easier and more accessible to users

Commenti: My organization launched a whole professional development program based on the pathways and it was great for developing skills for the workplace.

Aspetti positivi:

I like that we could complete training asynchronously at our own pace, both at the desk and on the go (via mobile access) and that the learning pathways were a guide to making the most of your coursework by achieving a cohesive learning objective.

Aspetti negativi:

Adding/removing courses was a little tricky, the deadlines were hard to change

Skillport review

Commenti: Skillport review

Aspetti positivi:

Used it for training purposes. The interface was easy to use, but it required keeping a separate monitor window open.

Aspetti negativi:

Having to use only a specific browser to operate the product meant that it was difficult for users on different platforms.
