Vibha  Mishra - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlined compliance training and efficient session creation empower diverse industries
Creating a session requires just one click, which makes data ready efficiently. Reporting-wise, Cornerstone is the best. It allows internal content management, playlist creation, using external links for learning, and supports various AI training. All the compliance training, code of conduct, and audits are handled through Cornerstone, making it beneficial.
ManujGupta - PeerSpot reviewer
User satisfaction grows with valuable features and excellent customer support
Some features of SAP SuccessFactors Learning that require improvement include reporting tools and dashboarding, which are not so good, and integration is really difficult. In the future, I suggest updates primarily on the mobile user experience side, reporting, dashboarding, and workflows. An AI version would definitely help significantly. Integrating SAP SuccessFactors Learning with HR systems through HR processes in my organization is very difficult.
