Senior Manager II, Learning operations and multi media at a retailer with 10,001+ employees

Its pricing is competitive, but the auto-assign feature that is most valuable for us hasn't been working for the last year and a half

We have a complex implementation because we have an outsourced population of over 50% of our user base. So, we have a lot of challenges. We have no HCM for user data. We have to create our own custom metadata to manage everything, and there are lots of logistical challenges in terms of implementation. If you have to go through and create a custom metadata system, as we did, and stand up all these other systems, it would take three to six months. If you have a human capital management system that's ready to go and you have all your data in the right segments and whatnot, it could be done in one to three months. In terms of maintenance, we recently re-scoped this to where we have one person that oversees the LMS as a whole, and then we have two administrators that carry out the tactical task, such as auto enrollments, user creations, and all other audit components. We also have a rotational employee that does audits on the LMS to make sure everything is working correctly.

Hands-on labs have transformed my theoretical studies and now support real business projects

While the platform is excellent overall, I think the main area for improvement would be adding even more practical resources and hands-on labs. The current guided labs are fantastic for learning initial concepts, but it would be incredibly useful to have more unguided, real-world troubleshooting scenarios or projects. This would allow learners to bridge the gap between following a step-by-step tutorial and facing a complex, unstructured problem, making the learning experience even better. More of these challenging practical resources would further prepare learners for not just exams but for the unpredictable nature of real-world production environments. Regarding course updates, one thing I would improve is having clearer transition guides between course versions. While navigating the catalog, I have noticed some courses have multiple active iterations, such as the Enterprise Linux Automation with Ansible course for both 8.4 and 9.0. It would be incredibly helpful if the platform highlighted the specific differences or updates introduced in the new release, making it more accessible.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its pricing is good, and its performance is good when it works."

"It's very easy to design content and create training models within the app, so you don't always have to use a third-party tool to develop your e-learning."

"It's a viable option because LMS would entail a significant amount of support and maintenance, while this solution could be completed and understood in a week, with very little maintenance required."

"As a user and administrator, I think Content Author is valuable because it removes the need for a third-party solution to create content in the best way possible."

"Content Author removes the need for a third-party solution for content creation."

"It incorporates the majority of the elements."

"Litmos has an excellent user interface, it's well designed and intuitive, and it also has a great content engine."

"The plug-and-play format can be deployed immediately which is unlike its competitors that require certifications, implementation partners, and phased testing that can take three to four months."

More Litmos pros

"I would recommend Red Hat Learning Subscription to others because it is quite a find for people who want to learn specific skills, and I would highly recommend it to those aligned with my interests."

"Red Hat Learning Subscription has positively impacted my organization by improving the team's capabilities and the possibility of obtaining certifications."

"Red Hat Learning Subscription has positively impacted my organization by serving as a great advantage to gain knowledge and increase output to the company by improving skills regarding Red Hat and Linux knowledge."

"The greatest return is in career readiness, as the platform successfully bridges the gap between academic theory and enterprise practice."

"Compared to third-party applications to learn Red Hat, Red Hat Learning Subscription is easier due to the full documentation on how to use it, how to install it, and how to perform specific actions."

"Red Hat Learning Subscription significantly improves my confidence with Linux administration, automation, containers, and OpenShift by providing structured learning and hands-on practices."

"Red Hat Learning Subscription's hands-on lab environment enhances the learning experience by allowing people to gain more hands-on experience and practice."

"Overall, I think Red Hat Learning Subscription is a valuable platform for IT professionals who want practical, enterprise-focused learning, especially in Linux and infrastructure-related areas."

More Red Hat Learning Subscription pros

Cons

"The solution lacks a variety of language options."

"First of all, their issue resolution is really bad."

"The reporting in Litmos could be improved. It is difficult to pull accurate reporting based on how the solution is set up and parameters are selected."

"After using this solution for four years, and raising our challenges around functionality, we did not see any improvements."

"The reporting function of SAP Litmos needs major improvements. The reports are not at par with other solutions on the market. It's not user-friendly or effective reporting which we can retrieve from other places."

"The dashboards for this solution could be improved as they are not of the same standard and detail as those seen in Power BI. The graphics for the reporting could also be improved."

"The reporting could be improved. When we first subscribed to Litmos, it had a great reporting engine, but SAP altered it. Some of the changes have reduced the ability to extract reports from it. It's excellent for live data, but it can be tricky when I want to get a report."

"The auto-assign feature that auto assigns courses to learners and puts them into a different learning path has had a bug for the last year and a half. My team has spent numerous hours trying to troubleshoot and fix that, but it's still broken. Until they fix that, it's going to be a higher admin burden for people to manage."

More Litmos cons

"Some labs feel a bit guided and the learning paths feel very generic at times, so adding more open-ended, real-world scenario-based labs and more role-based tracks would be very helpful."

"I chose a rating of nine instead of ten because Red Hat Learning Subscription has interactive labs that are subject to time constraints."

"I find the subscription costs for individuals to be high, but they could be reduced with organizational support."

"My experience with the pricing, implementation costs, and licenses for Red Hat Learning Subscription is that the prices are extremely expensive."

"It is somewhat pricey, but I used the free trial, and I want to continue with it."

"However, after leaving Locaweb, I attempted to access courses and found that Red Hat Learning Subscription is exclusively paid, which led me to realize that launching some free courses for enthusiasts who want to learn at least the basics of Linux would be an interesting addition."

"While the platform is excellent overall, I think the main area for improvement would be adding even more practical resources and hands-on labs."

"Red Hat's product portfolio needs to expand. Currently, it focuses only on Red Hat Linux, Ansible, and JBoss, which represents a very small market."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If I have a domain and I want to link my custom domain to SAP Litmos, and if I want to remove the branding of the SAP Litmos, then they charge a large amount for it. It's not included in your subscription plan which we have purchased from them. In the last two to three years, we have never bought the custom domain. We have never linked our custom domain to SAP Litmos. The barrier for us is the high pricing. It is not a reasonable price."

"This solution comes at a high price point. We also paid $4500 for a migration specialist from Litmos to assist in moving our content over. You are billed every month based on the number of users who have logged in and completed training."

"The pricing is really good. Its pricing is probably the most competitive I've seen for an LMS. If you need help with doing any type of custom design or customization, such as code design or anything like that with the site, then you have to use their people services, which would be an extra cost."

"The solution is priced per user which can get expensive."

"When we first purchased our subscription, we underestimated how many people we would have within a billing period. We had to adjust that in the first six months. I can't remember the exact numbers, but they charge a per user rate for a certain number, and you get a discount as the number of users goes up. It scales, which is a fairly reasonable way to build a pricing model."

"I do not have any idea about the licensing, but I know that it is quite expensive."

"There are three different pricing models. One is only to use the platform and to add your own learning material. The second plan includes the learning management system plus 2000 plus pre built courses on different areas including leadership, software skills, HR and IT related training. The third package allows you to integrate the system with tools such Salesforce or other CRMs."

"I don't know what the pricing model is at this point in time. I'm a consultant. The organizations that have purchased Litmos engage me to help them implement it, or Litmos engage me to be their external learning management system administrator. So, I don't see the rates, but based on the general comments that I've heard, it seems cost-effective and competitive with its competitors."
