TalentLMS Reviews

“Love the convenience it provides

Pros

Love how convenient it is. The feature set covers all our training needs without any gaps and whenever we've reached out for help, the support team responds quickly and actually resolves issues. It's been a solid solution for our e-learning requirements.

Cons

Hard to find any real downsides with this one.

“simplifies everything for us

Pros

Appreciate how simple it is to manage everything. Adding new branches and assigning training managers to each one is really easy. Once the training managers are set up, they can handle user access to the videos I've created, which works perfectly for our setup.

Cons

For what I need, I honestly can't think of anything and everything works exactly as promised!

“Excellent mobile app

Pros

Setting up was quick and I can build exactly the courses I need from simple ones to comprehensive programs with instructor-led sessions and assignments that lead to certification. The pricing really stands out compared to other LMS platforms that charge way more for similar features. The mobile app is great for learners who want to complete courses while they're out and about.

Cons

It would be nice if there was a shared content library where course creators could pull existing materials instead of having to upload the same stuff thats already in other courses.

“User friendly

Pros

I find this platform user friendly, even if you don't have a background in training development. What really impressed me was how simple it was to convert existing content from other sources into trackable training modules.

Cons

The system lacks proper functionality for setting course deadlines and tracking completion status. For instance, we have safety training that must be finished within the first week and then annually after that. I still have to do a lot of manual follow-up to ensure people actually complete their required courses.

“Extremely responsive support

Pros

It's a very uncomplicated system and their support team responds lightning fast whenever I reach out. I've bombarded them with questions and they always get back to me quickly. What's even better is when you ask them to keep a ticket open, they actually wait for you instead of auto-closing it.

Cons

Phone support isn't available and everything has to be handled through email which can be slower when you need immediate help.

“combines learning management & content creation

Pros

What I really like is how it combines both learning management and content creation in one platform. Finding something that did both was difficult when I started developing digital training materials. The entire suite is simple which has been a huge help for training our scattered remote workforce!

Cons

The lack of single sign-on integration is frustrating since we don't use individual computer accounts at our company. I have to manually add and delete users, which creates extra work compared to other LMS platforms that connect smoothly with HRIS systems like ADP.

“Tidy interface

Pros

The interface is organized well and I can customize different branches. The customer service response time is quick too.

Cons

The integration with Salesforce could definitely use some work.

“Students enjoy it!

Pros

It's easy to use whether I'm managing courses or taking them. Setting up my own domain and adding materials like documents, videos and assignments is simple. Students can learn from anywhere and actually enjoy the online experience.

Cons

Hard to find major issues with this one. Support team really knows their stuff and responds quickly when needed.

“No issues

Pros

Feels user-friendly compared to other learning management systems I've tried. While most platforms are glitchy and overcomplicated, this one let me accomplish what I needed within minutes of getting started.

Cons

Haven't run into any issues yet.

“Can adjust it according to your needs!!

Pros

I appreciate how flexible this platform is. Setting up various courses and keeping track of them feels simple. When I reached out for help a few times, the support team was really helpful and got back to me fast.

Cons

I havent found much to complain about yet. Would be nice if they offered dynamic pricing options for different user groups though.

“clear design

Pros

The best thing about it is how simple it is to use and how clear the design looks.

Cons

Sometimes struggles to read SCORM files that have multiple lessons in them

“Effective Support for All Needs

Pros

I can throw any crazy request at them and they always find a solution. They built us a website that blows away the competition without breaking our budget. This platform has really opened up new opportunities for expanding our training programs.

Cons

The reporting features could use some work to meet ISO 9001 standard metrics requirements. Having more visualization options like bar charts would make it easier for auditors to quickly understand the data instead of having to analyze lengthy reports.

“Helps improve our content

Pros

Managing training across our growing team used to be a complete headache. Tracking who completed what and planning future requirements felt impossible. This platform lets me easily see everyone's progress and organize upcoming training needs. The simple feedback system helps us continuously improve our content too.

Cons

The more complex configuration options can be pretty tricky but luckily the support team was really helpful and got back to me quickly

“Affordable yet professional

Pros

The cost is way lower than other platforms yet it still looks and feels professional, perfect for our customer training programs and the support team is responsive. Whenever we had questions, we could just pick up the phone and get help right away.

Cons

Reporting capabilities are fairly basic compared to what you'll find elsewhere and it lacks some of the advanced features other platforms offer. Navigation can be confusing at times. I often find myself having to stop and think about where I need to go to access certain information.

“monitors employee training progress

Pros

It lets us monitor employee training progress. Running reports for payroll is really handy since we can apply the correct charge codes when people finish their training. The automatic notifications to employees about upcoming training requirements are great too, saves us from having to manually track everything.

Cons

Removing inactive employees from the system is pretty difficult. Beyond that, I don't really have any other complaints.

“Simple to build programs

Pros

Makes it really simple to build training programs that actually matter for our team.

Cons

The courses in the marketplace feel pretty pricey. Would be great if they came at a lower price point or were bundled into the premium plans.

“perfect balance of simplicity & powerful features

Pros

I've tried countless learning management systems throughout my career and this one stands out for its perfect balance of simplicity and powerful functionality. The reporting capabilities are excellent and creating content feels user-friendly rather than complex. I've confidently recommended it to multiple clients while using it for my own training programs. User feedback has been consistently positive. People really appreciate the clean, well-organized interface that doesn't overwhelm them. It's become my go-to platform.

Cons

Finding specific reports and tools can be tricky initially since there's quite a bit to scroll through. The complexity is pretty much expected with any comprehensive system like this but I'll admit it takes some time to get familiar with where everything is located.

“Amazing reporting

Pros

The reporting for courses under the Test category is wonderful. All assessments provide detailed and thorough reports that are crucial for detailed analysis and informed decision-making.

Cons

The system doesn't let you split up assignments from one course between different users, which is really frustrating. Like if I have a course with three assignments and want to give each one to a different person, there's no way to set that up or track who did what separately.

“Can manage multiple regions

Pros

I can easily manage multiple regions simultaneously with this platform. After three years of use, I haven't run into any significan't issues. The online support is both effective and quick to respond. Even my participants who struggle with technology find the interface simple. Adding new classes and distributing them to learners is so easy.

Cons

Wish I could download participant projects straight from the report section instead of having to go elsewhere. Having everything in one spot is nice but being able to grab documents right there would save me tons of time. Also, the mailing feature can be tricky for participants who aren't super comfortable with computers.

“Pleased with it :)

Pros

I've been running TalentLMS across our whole company for learning and development and Honestly I couldn't be happier with it! The platform made it simple to organize everything from onboarding new employees to ongoing compliance training and career growth programs. Setting up cross-training modules was easy too.

Cons

I'm frustrated that it doesn't display reporting for short answer responses within tests and surveys.
