Verified user reviews

GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.

Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Pros

“It's also solved the problem of customer self-sufficiency - our clients can manage their own users and courses and pull their own reports instead of coming to us for everything - and the reporting gives us visibility we didn't have before, both proactively during onboarding and reactively when a customer needs extra support.”

Nancy C.

Learning and Development Manager

“I also appreciate the flexibility of the reporting tools, which allow us to track completion rates, identify trends, and make data-driven decisions.”

Avnit K.

E-Learning and Development Officer

“What I like best about Absorb LMS is its intuitive user experience and powerful AI-driven course creation tools, which make it easy to quickly build engaging, professional learning content while reducing development time.”

Lori M.

People and Culture Manager

Pros

“I really enjoyed being able to customize each page to include pictures, videos, and other graphics.”

Olivia B.

Paralegal

“My over all experience was great because teaching assistants, resources, time, instructional tactics, and content organization are all facilitated by lesson planning, which also informs students of what they will learn and how their objectives will be evaluated.”

Edgar B.

Customer Service Representative

“Overall, Lessonly is a good solution for small business or corporations with light training needs.”

Lindsay S.

Learning and Development Specialist

Cons

“Handling multiple certificates, e.g. CME for surgeons and nurses, is difficult requiring us to make separate courses for each professional group.”

John D.

Director of Instructional Design

“Having to manually check if any retiring courses have current progress enrollments, and sending out an email to the user to tell them that they need to complete it or it will not be accessible any more.”

Lorraine M.

Talent Management

“The reporting features did not always provide the level of detail or customization needed and the assignment functionality felt somewhat limited, making it harder for admins.”

Lauren J.

Admin

Cons

“Specifically user management can be tricky.”
