With a tight timeline to move off of our previous platform, we found the LearnUpon team to be extremely accommodating. Our onboarding & implementation specialist went above and beyond to dedicate additional training and support hours for our team, and helped us get up-and-running on the platform in record time.
Pros
We've had a fantastic sales and onboarding experience, and their CSM and their technical support teams are extremely responsive and thorough.
Cons
Not necessarily a drawback for us, but the platform UI is not customizable beyond branding and colors, and some additional settings that can be toggled on and off (like gamification, for example), so if you're looking for a platform that is highly customizable, this probably isn't a good fit for you.

Quick and easy administration and reporting. LearnUpon also appear to welcome and act upon client feedback and improve their product accordingly.
Pros
The dashboard! I love when an online resource that has lots of functionality provides a dashboard with quick and easy links to the tasks that you typically perform the most.
Cons
In terms of categorising users, I'd like to be able to archive users so I can only see active employees, but I understand why the software presents all users initially.

LearnUpon has allowed us to provide options for ILT sessions, taking administration off of the learning team to focus on strategy and design. In addition, LearnUpon puts learning in the hands of the learner!
Pros
This learning system allows for a lot of flexibility in the way it is designed. You are able to setup eLearning, webinars, videos, readings, podcasts / audio, ILT sessions and more!
Cons
Setting up management reporting relationships can be difficult in this system.

Branding the trial portal to reflect our corporate look and feel was a slam dunk, took maybe 1 hour max.
Pros
Excellent blend of intuitive aesthetic design and functionality -- LU works the way we need it to work, as we partition projects across portals and clients into self-contained user groups.
Cons
More attention could (and is) being paid to Reporting capabilities.

Customer Service is Awesome - we receive a prompt response to any question from our LearnUpon customer service rep and team, as well as friendly support and assistance throughout implementation of our employee training.
Pros
The LMS is extremely user friendly from the standpoint of creating courses, up-loading and customizing content. Our employee-related user issues have significantly decreased since switching to Learn Upon.
Cons
Can't really think of anything negative - any issues that are raised are immediately addressed.

Excellent Learning Management System with Salesforce integration.
Pros
This software is easy to use and has all the features needed for medium-sized business to implement a learning management system.
Cons
The pricing was a bit prohibitive, and with our client we decided to choose a free option. After that our client plans to return to LearnUpon - after they battle-test everything and decide which features they really need.

Our training can be done remotely and without very little help from us for setup and use. Keeps the trainee more interested in learning. Less worry about having to redo old PowerPoint Slides and other documents Constantly.
Pros
I like how easy it is to cost, setup, management, ease of use, branding per company and remote connection from anywhere you have an internet connection.
Cons
We had to buy a 3rd party app to product content because it LearnUpon does not support certain file types or editing.

Customer Service, Customer Service, Customer Service.
Pros
It is visually pleasing to look at, and you don't have to have any coding experience to customize the content and environment to fit your customer's needs and brands.
Cons
If I had to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find something I didn't like I would say that on occasion there is a "click" too many in a process of creating a course or assessment. With that being said, I have been with LearnUpon now for 2 years and they are constantly improving their platform and I have seen improvement in this area.

The implementation was simple and live within 3 days. The UI is clean, intuitive and allows both users and administrators to focus on receiving and delivering content rather than figuring out how to navigate the system.
Pros
Simple, clean UI Intuitive Unlimited and timely customer support Cost effective Progressive development (takes on customer feedback to make decisions on new features) SSO integration
Cons
One or two features which would have been useful (eg integration with webex tools) but this is now on the roadmap

Recommendations to others considering LearnUpon
I would definitely recommend LearnUpon - quick, easy, simple to use and highly effective at delivering your training content
100% recommended. I really can't speak highly enough. For our education clients to be using this rather than their own moodle environment speaks volumes to me. Can't recommend it enough
Pros
The ability to add custom data fields for mass importing saves so much time as we can sync reports with our customers standard systems.
Cons
None as yet I would like to see standardised API outputs and I know that this is on the development plan for 2-13
Rating breakdown
We use LearnUpon to provide direct access to our eLearning to end-users and we also provide our larger clients with a branded portal on the system so they can administer and manage their staff's access to our eLearning courses.
Pros
Great customer portal functionality, with really smart branding and white labeling options Intuitive, versatile, smart and affordable.
Cons
None. It does everything we need it to do and more. Our eLearning courses are relatively short (60-90 mins). I therefore cannot speak for how well it would work with heavier courses, although I see no reason why it wouldn't be just as good.
AWESOME SAUCE
Pros
All the employees i have worked with are incredible people and i look at as friends now.
Cons
Only thing i would change that they have not done all ready is make the course creator a little more robust.

I highly recommend LearnUpon to any training company serious about providing its customers with a superb eLearning experience. We invested heavily in developing stunning eLearning content and needed an LMS to match. After six months of trialing countless different systems I was losing hope of finding one, then I discovered LearnUpon and haven't looked back. I don't feel like I have just bought a product, I feel like I have entered into a partnership with a highly skilled, ambitious and professional team of LMS experts. They're a young, vibrant, ambitious team who definitely put their customers at the very centre of what they do. They understand that their customers aren't buying a system, they're buying a means for taking their eLearning products to market. I believe that you can only be as good as your worst supplier - since adopting the LearnUpon LMS our customers and their learners have gained much added value and overall a superb eLearning experience.
Pros
Great customer portal functionality, with really smart branding and white labeling options that impress our clients and are easy to configure.
Cons
I asked myself the question 'will they still be around in 5 years time?'. After some research, trialing the system and speaking with them I was left very comfortable in tying our future to theirs.

The customer service is leaps and bounds over any other company I've ever worked with.
Pros
It was really simple to jump in and start setting up our portal and when we got hung up they offer tons of resources to help you out.
Cons
The certificates are a little wonky, but I've been assured they are working on an update for this feature.

We needed and LMS that would host on a reliable server they maintain, integrate with Salesforce easily, and not break the bank.
Pros
The team actually listens to upgrade requests and bug reports. I know, because I see solutions implemented.
Cons
They do not offer an integrated Learning Record Store, so I haven't had the opportunity to use my xAPI data as robustly as I would like.

Overall : When starting up an online education business, finding the right Learning Management System is the crucial first step.
Because our company works remotely from one another, it's been great to use an easy system like LearnUpon that doesn't require us to all be in the same room.
Pros
I've used a few different Learning Management Systems before, and this one is the most intuitive.
Cons
Getting up-to-speed on any LMS is tough. Just learning where everything is and how to make edits when you're in the middle of selling and building the next course.

They have been an oustanding partner. They listen to our needs and work with us to find solutions. They provide great access to support and really try to meet our needs within our budget.
Pros
It provides a smaller business with access to features of a large enterprise LMS.
Cons
We can't have two currencies in one portal.. this is a unique need.
