Kallidus Learn Reviews

The aesthetic of Learn is very simple and easy to use, however it is engaging for the user. There is very minimal user training needed to use the system because it is easy to use. From an administrative side it is easy to understand how to set up training and the training provided by Kallidus is really good. It covers all topics you would need to run the LMS and the trainer is helpful and happy to tailor the training to our needs.

Overall it is a great system but there are a few kinks with it, for example the emails that go out from the system. It can be hard to find where to stop these as they are in multiple places in the admin tool, once you know it is not a big problem but you will probably need help from their customer support to find this.

The user interface is very well designed and personal The Admin console

Creating a new course is time consuming: - Having to create first the parent course, then having to create a lesson, then finally creating an event in order to publish the course to users. Can't find a way to create an ADHOC course: We sometimes have to conduct ADHOC At Desk Training, and it would be great if we had a quick way of capturing this as a training event, with the choice of sending...

I like the layout and what it looks like - it feels easy to use unless you're trying to do the admin bits as well. Uploading new courses is fairly easy and I like the logo library for courses - although a 'search' option would be desired. The separate Kallidus Zendesk helpdesk is good and you normally get a reply quickly.

Its inflexibility at times - for example, we would have so many improvement ideas to make it easier for the end user, but you can put your suggestions forward and very little happens; or it takes a long time to see any changes. It's not necessarily intuitive - changing a password is clumsy and only works for those who have a company email address on the system. It also doesn't give enough information...

- Simple to use both as admin and end user - great classroom system admin - scheduling, tracking, email reminders- interfaces with Outlook- powerful reporting tool with comprehensive suite of reports- robust platform with exception up time- hands on personal approach to customer and system support

little to criticize. The system does what it sets out to do and doesnt pretend to be what its not or cannot do. It is robust, functional and reliable.

I like the overall feel of the new Kallidus suite especially the search function. I also love the impersonate function, it's a great way to see what colleagues are seeing.

I don't like that you can't rename lesson titles whilst you are making the course. The general look and feel of the back end is quite clunky and could be a lot easier to use. When migrating our platform there was a lot of courses that didn't work correctly just because it wasn't selected to open in a new window and in other instances, the course opening in a new window caused it not track correctly.

I love the ease for our end users very simplistic and clean dashboard functionality which has been a big win due to lack of credibility with our old system.

The admin side is quite clunky even our old system you could easily upload SCORM files and language functionality for an admin is very resource heavy. Reporting isn’t the most user friendly either so looking forward for improvements in both areas.

I liked the front end view of the site. It is easy for colleagues to see what learning is outstanding and click through to the training. The platform is simple enough to allow colleagues who may not be as computer literate to navigate lessons and book courses.

I found it difficult to run reports using the reports feature. We needed a feature that enables managers to easily verify face to face training. I wanted to add descriptions of classroom training into the tiles rather that at the top of the course page.

Users find Learn easy to use and do not need much instruction. The design of the platform means users can find courses the need to do quickly and book on training courses with ease. The personalized branding help to make the site feel like an a company product.

In terms of our current needs the site is fulfilling them and with regular updates it promises to deliver more.

This LMS is brilliant for both an administrator and a learner. Not only does the back end have all the necessary functionalities that are easy to use but from a learners perspective the front end looks great and has improved massively from the previous version.

Sometimes there are a few too many clicks through the functions to achieve a simple task.

The new interface is wonderful to for the learner. Simple and dtraight to the point.

Unfortunately the back end is still as complicated as before it needs a major uplift.

Can upload eLearning modules to thousands of colleagues at one time The My Team function is very user friendly for managers The front end looks good and is easy for colleagues to understand

The whole system crashes when too many people try to access a module at once The reporting function doesn't always work well and is difficult for managers to understand

We have recently made some very big changes in how the Kallidus Learn system is used by administrators. We wanted to make it even easier for our customers to create, deploy and track all of the learning taking place in their organisations. Take a look at a video walkthrough here - we hope this has addressed your concerns. https://blog.kallidus.com/kallidus-learn-admin-user-interface-refresh

Simplicity of the dashboard makes it easy for staff who may be new to LMS learning, to navigate their way around. As an administrator with limited IT skills, uploading e-learning courses, PDF articles, training videos and creating course booking events is very straightforward. Staff can record and update externally accrued CPD hours while internal hours are automatically recorded. For compliance and other mandatory training, managers can view team training records and send timely reminders if a team member hasn't met a prescribed deadline.

Creating reports is not as intuitive and could do with a 'dummies' guide. The dashboard does not provide information about forthcoming course dates if someone is looking to plan their diary ahead.

It's a user friendly platform and makes it very easy for user to navigate.

Reports are never correct and creating courses is a very lengthy process. Fixed accreditations are not working as they are supposed to be as they only shows when a user has done the course first time.

Easy to navigate. User friendly. Easy to support users as an administrator. Many functions covering all needs of our organisation.

Reporting is overly complicated and time consuming.

Thanks for taking the time to review Learn. We're so glad to hear you're enjoying working with us!

Really simple to use Easy implementation The manager dashboards allow managers to access information in their team on the go without trawling through reports

The platform gives us what we need and I can’t think of any cons.

it easy to manage all learning across many boards

like any software you have a few glitches but their has not been many issues along the way

I love the new platform we are using in our company. Elearning made easy. It is very easy to use.

Getting used to the things that have changed has proven a little bit challenging

The landing page interface and the integration with business objects reporting software. It is very intuitive and easy to administer. Our customers like the modern look and feel.

When it goes down or on a go slow but Kallidus are always quick to get it fixed and always communicate when there is an issue.

From a user perspective, this software is easy to use and navigate. It is uncomplex and restrictive in terms of customisation, which means that users can quickly and easily find what they're looking for.

The inflexibility can sometimes be challenging, and come into conflict with the way we want to develop the system for our internal purposes. I know that Kallidus are currently putting lots of time and resources into developing these areas over the next year.

It's really easy to use, the amount of internal support issues that we have had have been limited, and Kallidus are always at the end of the phone or email to support us going forward. It really does what we need it to do, get into the system, easily find our learning and at the back end report on the key areas of compliance. Some of the other providers that we looked at have basic reports, Kallidus Learn can report on anything. It's simplified our lives and is making our staff more effective through the ease of use.

No cons were added to this review

The capability of reporting is very useful. The way I look at it, the reporting function is similar to Microsoft Excel, yet has the information of our system ready to utilise and amend in any way that fits the needs of our users who request e-Learning reports.

It can take a while to understand the architecture of the system and how it all works together, but for simple, standard usage it meets all expectations.

User friendliness, UI , ease of quick access to content

Nothing negative, maybe needs to be available on every browser type

The easy configuration of the platform, it is an easy platform to adjust to the needs that are required

Everything is perceptible of improvements, I could improve the information or guide for the user within the platform

Thanks for taking the time to review Learn. We're so glad to hear you're enjoying working with us!

Most of what I need is there on the system

I find it very Glitchy. For example . The page often automatically refreshes when you put your information in. meaning you have to repeat the process.

Ease of use for our end users. The search functionality is really helpful.

Not being able to search on Custom Fields.
