“A Paradigm Shift in the eLearning Era!”
Pros
SumTotal has many unique features and complies with various industries. The Global Search function allows me to search all entities, including navigation links, people, training objects, and communities. The Extended Enterprise Learning feature is excellent for large organizations that want to sell their courses to external stakeholders or the public. The Learning Administration feature offers complete front-end administration and configuration capability, so it can be managed internally after implementation, saving the organization a lot on AMC.
Cons
There are a few features that are evolving over time. Once these features are improved, they will become my most likable feature. SumTotal has a Content Library with all the courses available for users, but many times, I get lost in the Library. I need to know the exact course category to utilize this feature effectively. Reports need to be improved further and should be more user-friendly for customizing. These are not drawbacks, but features that are in progress.
