What do you like best about the product?
The system is incredibly user friendly, with easy implementation and valuable features. The filters and reporting capabilities make tracking progress efficient. Customer Service is outstanding- attentive, responsive and always willing to assist. My CSM, Alissa B. is consistently available for questions and provides excellent support and resources, ensuring my needs are met in a timely manner. The curation team is extremely helpful and the new feature to curate a list has been a great addition.
What do you dislike about the product?
An area of opportunity in OpenSesame would be more independence to filter and create reports based on topics and users. I would like to be able to filter a report by topic to gather number of training hours and have the ability to see on users who are and are not using the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Opensesame is a valuable resource for leadership development, newsletter content and provides insightful webinars and customer conversations that are especially beneficial for trainers. The platform also enhances employee engagement by offering creative ideas, a diverse range of publishers, and courses tailored to different learning styles.

What do you like best about the product?
I use OpenSesame courses at my company for all of our employees, but I also take advantage of them myself! The courses are well-made and offer valuable insights not just for work, but for other areas of life as well. From work-life balance to neurodiversity and skill development, the variety of courses available is immense! I also appreciate the customer service. They are quick and resonsive and make sure that their is a satisfactory outcome to all requests.
What do you dislike about the product?
The least helpful aspect for me is reporting. It can be challenging to get a quick overview of what someone has completed, especially when they’re working through a list of courses. While it's possible to get the information I need, it's not as intuitive as I'd like, and it often takes me longer to figure it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenSesame is solving the problem of providing easy access to a wide variety of training resources for our employees, helping ensure they have the skills and knowledge they need. It offers a convenient way to stay up-to-date and compliant.

What do you dislike about the product?
Overall our expereince with OpenSesame has been great. If we had one wish, it would be for more consistency in course quality across providers and a more intuitive search experience to quickly surface the best content. However, I have seen improvments in the search feature and the content curatoration team turn back results incredibly fast when requested.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
OpenSesame helps us provide a scalable learning experience without the need to develop all of our content from scratch. As a growing company, we need access to diverse, relevant training across multiple skill areas—including leadership development, compliance, and technical skills. OpenSesame’s extensive content library allows us to quickly find and deploy learning that fits our needs.

What do you like best about the product?
The support that OpenSesame has is very fast, they respond immediately with the solution or work on it at that moment, also another thing I like about OpenSesame is its content, it has a lot of content with a wide variety of topics.
What do you dislike about the product?
May be the translation of the content, in my case it is the Spanish translation which sometimes sounds literally translated from the English version (using AI).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves problems in terms of OpenSesame course configuration, when we have problems in the company's LMS as well as requests for content in different languages. Their quick response helps us a lot.
