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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of Cornerstone Learning are the welcome page and the learner's home, as it is user-friendly and graphically appealing."
"From a functional perspective, it is perfect because it has a strong structure and design."
"Combining everything together, our on-time completions have gone from the mid-sixty percentile to over 99% on-time completion."
"Their integration features with other platforms are valuable. It is also relatively easy to use. Their library of training modules is fairly robust as well."
"If you want to make the job easier, go for Cornerstone Learning."
"The reporting feature is fantastic, and I also like the dynamic learning assignment feature. It is interactive and user-friendly. It is also highly stable, automated, and customizable."
"Its flexibility allows different configurations for different areas of the company while keeping it all together."
"Its user-friendly interface is most valuable. You can configure your welcome page and design it the way you want on your own."
"Microsoft Viva Insights is integrated with Outlook and SharePoint. It helps me to reply and attend all scheduled meetings."
 

Cons

"Cornerstone needs to be more adaptable by generating content by just giving keywords, similar to other LMS in the market."
"Its dashboard and analytics must be improved. Currently, we get the data, but we don't get anything from the insightfulness perspective. Analytics is where it requires a lot of work. We definitely expect some good dashboard features, which are currently lacking in this solution. From a technical perspective, they need to open access to all HTML tags. It currently doesn't support many HTML tags, which makes it challenging to create HTML pages."
"I would like more robust reporting or more flexibility and scalability around the reporting side."
"This product could have more features and ways to deliver training."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvement in the dashboards and reporting."
"They can make it more simple in terms of UI. The UI is complex in regards to the navigation and functionality."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams for virtual sessions could be better"
"The recruitment module needs to be improved in Cornerstone Learning."
"I get very few notifications of Microsoft Viva Insights on my mobile."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing depends on the specific requirements."
"The solution cost approximately $47,000 annually."
"It is a premium product, and it is on par with its competitors. It isn't out of scale with what the market is demanding. We're always looking at ways of trimming costs, but we haven't had a lot of flexibility with pricing and/or options with Cornerstone. So, its price is decent. There are ad hoc engineering costs when we are required to use a Cornerstone resource. Additionally, when we choose to integrate with third-party platforms, there is a setup and maintenance fee for these data integrations. They need to be built into our ongoing budget as we expand our offerings."
"The pricing of Cornerstone Learning is reasonable, but my knowledge of the cost is limited. I've had some discussions about licenses. I suppose we've had to push them a little bit to be more flexible about the licensing. For example, someone said they could only give us licenses in a batch of 500, but we found out that it wasn't true. We were able to negotiate a different amount."
"I was not involved in the financial negotiation for our contract with this company, but in the past, I have seen the fees run between $10 USD and $11 USD per user."
"I would rate the price at four on a scale from one to five because it's a very expensive product."
"This solution offers competitive pricing."
"I rate the price of Cornerstone Learning a four out of five. There are not any additional costs other than the standard licensing fees"
