Tons of Content to Train Your Team

What do you dislike about the product?
The platform looks old and can be hard to navigate.

Experimenting with new E-Learning platforms
What do you like best about the product?
I love the simplicity of the Skillsoft system, especially interactions for end-users. The interface is familiar, accessible, and easy to use. I like how this software can provide more on-demand training than our alternative LMS, Canvas. Being able to access the material from any device is also great.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface, while simple and straight forward, is not as modern and inviting as some other platforms. It would be nice to have some more choices in terms of design or theme, to give the e-learning material a more consistent look and feel with the rest of our training platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Skillsoft as an elearning development platform, in addition to Canvas and eCoach. There are a number of faculty that prefer to develop using Skillsoft for specific elements.
Great learning platform
What do you like best about the product?
Skillsoft is a great platform for technical trainers to provide on the fly articles and training on new products, new processes and procedures.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks the simplicity that other platforms have for small team and small class training.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allowed us to centralize our training services. Rather than having to save documents or emails and self manage finding these training documents as a user, they're in a centralized location
Simple and effective training
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use and the training they have is straightforward and well put together
What do you dislike about the product?
It might be the way ours is set up, but we have so many trainings and they aren't always easy to find, especially if you use the search bar.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps trains all new employees on waste management, safety, their job, benefits, really anything.
A really simple, easy way to catch up on important info.
What do you like best about the product?
Skillsoft makes it so much easier to catch up on the basics that allow me to do my job. Sometimes, it can be easy to forget to keep my approach to sales simple. But Skillsoft changes that and makes it much easier to remember the little things.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is, admittedly, a bit bland, but I think its simplicity is what makes it easier to navigate. Overall, not a big deal. It's something that can easily be updated. The rest of the program is just fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It just makes it so much easier to remember the basic skills that can be easy to forget. We are constantly hiring and expanding our workforce, and Skillsoft makes it much easier to not only train and educate all of our employees, but continue to maintain that level of excellence as well. It is an A+ value, and something that I really hope I will continue to be able to use atfuture jobs, as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would honestly say it's a great choice for managers to improve their workforce. It has a real, noticeable effect on ROI when it comes to a salesforce. Instead of having to remember every little product feature, I know that I can just pull up Skillsoft and just like that, all the little important features I have to remember are right there. I really recommend it to anyone who has to manage a large, complex, evolving workforce.
Training made simple
What do you like best about the product?
I like that this had other languages available for training as I work in another country where English is not the 1st language. Also the fact that you can acces it anywhere because I’d the cloud technology
What do you dislike about the product?
I can’t say that i disliked this program it just means you have to be more self motivated to stick with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Training, training, training. Getting IT training makes a huge difference in the workplace.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to train staff or yourself in IT this is one to consider and is really easy to use and comprehensive.
Stay learning
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing skillsoft have, for me is the preview test. If you already know a topic just jump to the preview test. And you can go faster to next.
What do you dislike about the product?
For videos you need the window front on you. If i only want to hear, i think need that option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well i take a few courses. I learned how to build more secure code, OWASP, and so on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think it's a good option to update and learn diferent topics.
Options a plenty!
What do you like best about the product?
When looking for a learning management system, Skillsoft stood out above and beyond some of the other options we looked at in terms of options and how ease it was to use. We wanted a system that not only our leadership team could use, but something that our front line staff could use to help develop their skills depending on what career path they wanted to take. If staff development is what your company is focused on, Skillsoft is a perfect partner to have.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having such a vast collection of learning options, Skillsoft was a little over whelming at first. Our leadership development team had to take sometime to determine which coarse would best suit out employees developmental needs. Now that we've created that structure, using SkillSoft is a breeze. Some courses seemed to be outdated or no longer relevant based on advances and changes in technology and the workplace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not everyone learns the same way. Some of our team-members do well in a class room setting, others do better on their own. We found that some of the courses that were available through Skillsoft helped team members who did not do as well in the class room training setting. The tool has also been helpful when it comes to career pathing. We can talk to our team members about where they would like to go, within our company, and develop a learning plan using some of the courses offered through Skillsoft
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you would like to provide additional training and development options for your staff, Skillsoft is a great affordable resource. Easy to use and presented in a way that is easy for all to understand. Once someone completes a course they want to take more.
Just trained with this, nice
What do you like best about the product?
Training with this product was easy to use, use of video and reading sections was a nice touch
What do you dislike about the product?
Flow was broken when switching screens or images
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Made training easy and self explanatory
Gets the job done but could improve
What do you like best about the product?
The course offerings are great. We selected those that would meet our needs to add to our library, ranging from IT specific to project management to emotional awareness. The soft skills courses are terrific and are short.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting is not user friendly and looks extremely outdated. The user interface for administration could be improved but it gets the job done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Training on demand that the employee can schedule for their own time.
