We transitioned to Lesson.ly from another, more complicated, LMS and have been very happy with the transition. The team are extremely helpful and always on call to troubleshoot any issues. (Despite the time difference between us, we're in the UK). The training materials provided are extensive, but unnecessary sometimes as the it's very intuitive to use and implement. The integration with OBIQ (haven't tested the latest Slack integration), has been very useful and setting it up was easy. The Reporting function has been very useful in seeing where learners are struggling and reassessing our approach. Overall, we're very happy with Lesson.ly!

From a creation standpoint, Lessonly had been incredible easy to use and allows me to integrate creativity into my lessons. I have fun creating the lesson and enjoy receiving feedback from my colleagues. From a learners standpoint, I appreciate Lessonly because it allows for a different kind of learning experience. It also allows me to take my time and really absorb the information. I love that there is learning center Dashboard that I can access at any time. Lessonly has been a wonderful addition to my company and I would definitely recommend this product.

Lessonly wasnt created for content management as I use it, but it gets the job done. Tagging allows me to add metadata to my 'lessons', and html format makes it easily accessible across devices and platforms. This also makes it easy to add content from other places and file types.
It gets the job done.

I think its a great tool and plan to implement at every company I work.
Great for on-boarding reps and creating material for ongoing coaching and training around new internal and external processes.
Time-consuming creating the lessons along with UI naviationg is often an obsticle

Organization of classes for training teachers
For the course of educational training, the tool is very usefulness and allows to share videos and projections of images dynamically
The cost is a little bit high and the explanation for the functioning results something complicated

Our company uses Lesson.ly for corporate training. The strongest points are the ease of use, great customer support, and constant improvements to the product. Every one of our new Lesson.ly users in our company found it very easy to figure out how to use Lesson.ly. They found it especially useful for distant learning and self-paced learning. The customer support is one of the best in the industry....

I'm responsible for training and education for the BD team at my company, and I came into the job with no prior experience using tools like Lessonly. From the beginning, it was incredibly simple to figure out how to use it, build materials, and hold my team accountable for learning. The platform was integral in building out a comprehensive onboarding and training program that improved new hire productivity by 40% and decreased ramp time by 66% or more. In addition, the Lessonly team is always ready to lend a hand however they can. Great experience with the team and with the product!

From day one, the team at Lesson.ly has gone above and beyond helping us scale our company and, most importantly, our culture across three different locations and a variety of teams here. With their help, we've seen success and an increase in onboarding, productivity and general team development. Whenever we have a question, Lucy is always availible to chat, offer suggestions based on other client's successes and problem-solving. We've been able to use what we've built cross-functionally to develop easier, quicker and more personal connections with new team members.

Very versatile package that allows you to build, assign, and monitor self-led lessons in an easy-to-view way. Can even filter lesson completions by groups to dig into who has, and has not, finished the training.
The monitoring and reporting options
can sometimes be slow to load/react to selections

I send out weekly lessons to keep our sales agronomists constantly reviewing the science behind our products, crops, and other industry need-to-knows. I have gotten a lot of great feedback from the "students" that are in my training program. They say they are so glad to have the review that keeps them refreshed with information they learned in college and have since forgotten, but also touching on new subjects and learning more concepts behind basic topics. It is easy to use on the back end of creating the lessons and also for the users to take the lessons.

It has been easy to measure our sales people's learning and where new employees are at in their industry knowledge-level. This is great so we know what level we need to start training each individual.
Lesson.ly is so simple to use - both on the lesson creation end and the user end. This is very helpful for my learners who aren't very computer-savvy.
The subscription is a little too expensive for the amount that we use it, and there are no smaller packages available.

Lessonly is far and away one of the best e-learning services I’ve used. It’s made me realize just how much I’ve been missing from previous companies not utilizing it.
Lessonly is a wonderful tool for company-wide trainings and onboarding for new employees. Managers can provide feedback and grading for more complex topics, or can be automatically graded with user defined rubrics.
The UI is a bit older than what I’ve seen from other software, but Lessonly makes up for it with how easy it is to use and with a ton of resources to help with the materials.

We use lessonly for most of out internal training throughout every department in Weave.
Lessonly is an easy way to do trainings throughout the company. You are able to present the information in a number of different formats to help our employees learn no matter how they learn.
A lot of our Lessonlys are very basic but that might just be the way that we set them up rather than a drawback to Lessonly's features.

Lesson.ly is simple to use as both an admin and user, which allows you to spend more time on the stuff that actually matters... learning! At the same time, the options and features for creating, sharing, and tracking course materials are very robust and constantly improving. As we grow and expand our training needs, Lesson.ly is right by our side with amazing customer service and outreach. I am alway amazed by the new features, tips, and tricks and plan to continue to invest more time and resources in using Lesson.ly with our team.

Easy to build lessons, easy to assign lessons, could have some improvement in monitoring lesson completion.
WYSIWYG lesson builder interface is pretty easy to use, and that means you can farm out the lesson creation entirely to non-technical folks. Assignment functionality is decently easy to use and the ability to select groups makes life a lot easier... don't have to keep hunting and pecking for individuals.
Reporting of finished assignments could be more robust, especially at scale. Would be good to have more cuts of finished assignment data, ex. by geography.

This is the future of training teams across the globe. Its a small company and they've released a couple features since I used it. Seems like theyre on top of updates and service
The customization of quizes and tests can be very very time consuming. It can some times be a bit buggy but not a deal breaker.

I love how lessonly simplifies organizing large amounts of information and makes onboarding employees and customers easy and fun!
Lessonly is not great as database or resource center, especially if you have longer lessons. I'd recommend using a different platform if you want to have easy access to all the information for quick reference.

Lessonly is a great way to learn new policies, practices, and information. I enjoy that is has options to read and learn, and then be tested at the end to see what stuck and see where you could improve.
I haven't used very much learning software so I'm hesitant to say that Lessonly is the best.

Lesson.ly is used by my company regularly and has many useful features and functions! Some of the great features that we use often is the organizing system, it keeps great track of all of the lessons that are created, and allows for easy access to lessons that are in the same department. The way Lesson.ly's system is setup to create lessons is fast, easy, and very intuitive! Overall, Lesson.ly was well worth the money and I recommend it!

We love Lessonly. We have implemented the lessons in order to make the onboarding process more fun and engaging. We are beginning to create lessons that will help our customers better understand all of our offerings. The software is wonderful, the people are amazing and their culture seems to be lovely as well. If you have a moment, check out their blog or their social media feed. It is all as informative as it is witty and humorous.
