The product is highly dependent on other tools, and it doesn’t have reporting functions
The product is quite poor in integration with the back end. We can’t report out of it very well. It's highly dependent on other tools. If it doesn't integrate properly, it can be quite complex to work with. I don't see any value in having a learning experience platform over and above a working LMS like Cornerstone. Getting data out as an administrator has always been bad because the product doesn’t have its own reporting functions. It has a reporting tool added to it. It's not part of the core system. It's very hard to report on data accurately and know that the data is accurate because it doesn't always reflect what's actually in the tool.

Flexible e-learning has supported multi-campus growth but still needs more open themes and plugins
I think they should actually provide some more free versions of most of their themes. I think most of the things you have to use on Edly are all paid for you to have a good experience. I think they should work on making some open-source plugins or themes that people can also explore. Because Moodle itself is actually open-source, but if you want to go for the paid Moodle, you can still use the free one, but there are some restrictions in Edly that if they can just add some free themes, it will still make it not seem as though they are not selling, but it will attract more users to explore what they have as a solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The integrations work fine."
"Edly has positively impacted my organization by giving our employees confidence to perform well, especially when dealing with critical projects."
"We track all the learner trends and progressions and which courses are the top sellers so that we can market them and place them prominently in the marketplace."
"There's no way you can build a solution that you cannot easily customize, which is actually the powerful feature of Edly."
"Edly ties up with the world's best educational institutions and provides the best courses with reasonable time frames to finish the modules, which is something I appreciate most about Edly."
"Edy made content delivery more efficient than other tools that I was using previously."
 

Cons

"It's highly dependent on other tools."
"I sometimes find issues with even the finished modules in Edly where I cannot proceed to the next module and must restart the same modules."
"One thing that could be improved is to ease out the payment process and payment modules."
"It was simple enough to use, but I could not make a significant difference in terms of efficiency compared to other platforms such as Blackboard or Moodle."
"I think they should work on making some open-source plugins or themes that people can also explore."
"Edly can be improved by addressing the limitation in integration with third-party platforms."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool’s pricing is too much for what it is."
