Cornerstone LMS Reviews

Pros

Recent updates have improved user-friendliness, although clarity remains a concern. However, it manages transcripts effectively.

Cons

Our permissions feel overly restrictive, limiting our ability to run certain reports and lacking backend design privileges. Usability suffers due to HTML issues and confusing Transcript functionality.

Pros

It proves incredibly adaptable, accommodating various business units within a cooperative setup seamlessly.

Cons

Certain aspects are a bit cumbersome to create, such as constructing performance tasks. It would be incredibly convenient to be able to create a review process all in one go, rather than having to assemble each part separately before combining them into a complete task.

Pros

Among all systems we have tried, Cornerstone stands out as the most innovative and user-friendly.

Cons

Uploading OnCourse compliance courses could be made simpler. Other than that, no complaints.

Pros

The flexibility of Cornerstone is impressive; there are numerous ways to achieve goals, and the Success Center and Knowledge Base foster an engaging and supportive customer community.

Cons

Learning the system itself is not challenging. Like any other system, it requires getting accustomed to. I'm not a fan of certain outdated features (such as groups) or the somewhat outdated appearance (like the test engine).

Pros

The UI is excellent for end-users and provides the flexibility needed, especially with Welcome and Custom Pages, to convey information effectively. The Learner Home makes it easy for users to find content they're interested in, in a format they're accustomed to.

Cons

Support can occasionally be lacking in effectiveness. Moreover, changes to the roadmap are not always adequately communicated, leaving you anticipating projects that may never materialize.

Pros

The ability for managers to assign trainings and for users to easily access topics is a plus.

Cons

It would be beneficial if administrators besides managers could assign trainings. This way, HR or other administrators could utilize this tool effectively.

Pros

Reporting features stand out in the LMS, offering customizable reports tailored to our exact needs.

Cons

Tracking certifications remains overly complicated.

Pros

The platform's consistent evolution to meet company and employee needs makes it a reliable training solution.

Cons

While some alterations are not feasible, adaptation is achievable.

Pros

The administrative functions are extensive, offering numerous customization options to tailor the system to our needs.

Cons

Navigating new system changes can be tricky.

Pros

From a user standpoint, it is modern and intuitive, while administrators benefit from abundant configuration options. The active user community and thorough documentation further enhance its appeal.

Cons

The backend interface feels old-fashioned at times and can be overly intricate.

Pros

Compared to our previous system, Cornerstone offers a plethora of options and enhanced employee interaction, making it easier to integrate additional resources.

Cons

Transitioning was challenging due to a steep learning curve and multiple support sources.

Pros

The customization options are what I value most about Cornerstone, coupled with excellent support.

Cons

Some features are still in development, and I would appreciate expanded customization options for reporting and administrative access.

Pros

The reporting function for nearly every aspect within the modules is impressive.

Cons

I am pleased with all the modules we have acquired so far.

Pros

The process of uploading, assigning and displaying courses is excellent. Goal setting and performance reviews look great from the employee side.

Cons

The Test Engine is not very user-friendly, although updates are reportedly in the works.

Pros

The flexibility in building and customizing learning programs seems infinite.

Cons

Certain areas of the portal have outdated UI elements.

Pros

I like that CSOD is an integrated HRIS system with a great end-user experience and interface.

Cons

Some file size limits are problematic, and certain functionalities do not operate as expected. However, there is an array of tools and resources available to tailor the functionality to suit your company's needs.

Pros

Cornerstone is robust, particularly for automation and compliance tracking, offering flexibility for administrators.

Cons

End-user usability issues persist, such as excessive clicks to access learning and the lack of key features like Vimeo, MP3, and HTML learning item types.

Pros

I appreciate its user-friendliness, even for non-tech-savvy individuals. The continual improvements with each release are commendable, significantly enhancing our experience over my five-year tenure.

Cons

Our implementation experience was unpleasant. Despite having a competent product leader, we faced confusion with many processes. Opting for a slower implementation pace would have been preferable in hindsight.

Pros

I find Cornerstone Learning to have a solid structure with powerful features aiding in automation and organizational learning management.

Cons

The presentation is not fantastic. The front end does the job, but the back end needs some streamlining and organization to truly excel. They're working on this with Xplor, but it comes with an added cost, so be prepared for that.

Pros

Integrating Cornerstone with our business posed challenges, especially with vendor setup. Despite ongoing issues transitioning from ADP, our move to the system has been fairly smooth. Its SSO Access reduces password resets, and its sleek design is user-friendly, which is the highlight for us.

Cons

Being in charge of learning updates across the organization, I find Cornerstone's versioning system confusing. Once changes are made, reversing mistakes becomes a challenge without backend support.
