reviewer1977519 - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Adam Michalik - PeerSpot reviewer
Product Manager, Digital Experience Analytics at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Long-term analytics have improved tracking of digital task performance and user adoption
Strategy and development strategy are heavily focused on AI, and I think that for medium and small organizations which don't have a very vast IT stack, this might be the right approach. However, for big enterprises, WalkMe should focus more on developing their existing features and capabilities with the main focus on data and analytics, which feels like it has been stalled for quite some time. Over the past two years, there has not really been any groundbreaking development in that area. I think that the limited integration capability of WalkMe with the back end of the underlying applications is a limitation. On the other hand, the easy configuration and lack of the need for backend or more thorough technical integration is a huge positive aspect of WalkMe, but it is also its biggest weakness because the ability to pull in additional data from other systems is limited. Because it is not a perfect product, there is definitely room for improvement when it comes to the development of new features and the further development of the key capabilities. It is by far the leading digital adoption platform in the market, setting the example and leading the entire industry. I think that it does not deserve a rating of 10 because I was able to identify the room for improvement, but I would also like to recognize their position in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its user interface is quite good, the platform is quite user-friendly, and the UI/UX of the platform is very advanced, which helps in getting the users interested in the training."
"There is a couple of good features available, you can customize the dashboard, CSA, and home page. You can customize the solution to your business standards. SAP Litmos offers a library of 2,500 plus courses to premium members. They have a good library of pre-built courses. It's a variety of soft skill courses including management, and marketing. You can offer these courses to your students, which is excellent."
"From a learning management system admin perspective, it has a user-friendly interface, but the functionality is deep. So, you can automate people in and out of courses. It lowers the general admin of an LMS admin so that I can focus more on value-adding things for the organization I'm working with."
"It incorporates the majority of the elements."
"SAP Litmos brings more standardized training to our organizations."
"Litmos has an excellent user interface, it's well designed and intuitive, and it also has a great content engine."
"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."
"This complete product is highly scalable, as licensing is not based on the total number of users on the system but rather only on active users, so Litmos only charges for the number of users engaged in training, which is what makes this solution ideal for scale."
"I have already obtained return on investment, with productivity increased by 60%, a time and training cost savings of almost 80%."
"With Walkme installed we were able to simplify and expedite the customer on-boarding and adoption process."
"Customer Service: A+, excellent, and our support advisor, Doug Sykes, was great, polite, understanding, patient, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout the entire process, and I highly recommend working with him."
"WalkMe drastically reduced manual errors, which impacted not only the good performance of the employee so they could do their tasks, but also employee satisfaction, since they did not need to perform multiple steps and would immediately know if there was any block rather than finding out in the future."
"If you have a lot of steps to on-board your users and have a web product that is fairly complex to grasp, I highly recommend WalkMe."
"Since adopting WalkMe, I have noticed that user adoption is far higher and it reduces user resistance significantly."
"We implemented Workday on all three major pieces: HCM, finance, and SCM, which was a huge company-wide implementation, reducing support tickets by eighty percent in the first two weeks after going live with WalkMe."
"WalkMe has positively impacted my organization with better change management, quicker onboarding, and fewer support tickets sent through from users using the product."
 

Cons

"First of all, their issue resolution is really bad."
"After using this solution for four years, and raising our challenges around functionality, we did not see any improvements."
"You cannot make a course optional, so if I assign a course to someone, the system assumes that they have to complete it."
"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 rules are not very flexible in terms of administration. They have a predefined system with three standard rules that cannot be customized, modified, added, or removed."
"One feature that a few of my clients have been requesting is CPD. We should be able to capture CPD points for users within the system to be able to report on those."
"They can really improve in the reporting area. While doing sessions, there are various types of reports, such as the attendance report or assessment report. We can export the Excel dump of the report, but it is not that neat and clean. You have to change it a lot. You can customize the Excel dump as per your requirement, but it is not that user-friendly in terms of the admin part. They can do much better. They have room for improvement in the reporting area."
"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."
"There is always scope to improve WalkMe. The interactions and the UI interaction could improve somewhat."
"WalkMe can be improved with more AI tools."
"WalkMe is complex to implement, and that would probably be the only area that could be improved, making the implementation and enablement a little easier."
"Occasionally the system runs a little slowly, which can be frustrating to some of our fast paced end users, but that is more due to the robust number of Walk Thrus our team has created."
"WalkMe is not an inexpensive tool, so it should be implemented broadly to make the investment worthwhile."
"The biggest area for improvement is the onboarding and training."
"I do not have data regarding return on investment; as I mentioned, we are in a beta phase, so there is not a return on investment yet."
"The admin tools can be a little confusing, so I understand registering for the training."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I do not have any idea about the licensing, but I know that it is quite 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."
"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."
"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."
"The solution is priced per user which can get expensive."
"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."
"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."
"It is priced per user license."
