Cornerstone Learning Reviews

.

Administration side is very user friendly and with lots of online help available

UI/UX can be improved, although CSoD is very responsive to customer's feedback and does implement many new features suggested by customers

2 Years

This is probably the most stable solution I have worked with, very few down-times or unexpected behaviours

The most challenging part of the implementation is understanding the customer requirements/objectives, if those are clearly elaborated and documented, implementation can be seamless and straightforward

Best in class solution with frequent updates/new releases

The quarterly release schedule is good in a way as it provides frequent new features and improvements, but it can be challenging to keep up with all those updates.

My main recommendation would be to make sure to do lots of testing before making anything live to ensure it's configured and works as expected.

Also, functional testing and UAT should be carried out on each new feature released which is implemented. If you required any further recommendations on testing please feel free to get in touch.

I manage projects as a senior consultant. I used to be a CEO for a large corporation.

We are managing the design, all of the activities and the budget, and everything that goes on with the project.

For the government, I am currently implementing the Cornerstone Learning Management system. Specifically, in this government office, they give service to low-income populations and people with disabilities, and they need to know that their employees who sit on the professional committees and who are judging the cases are current with their knowledge.

First, they manage expiry dates of certain courses that have to be renewed. They manage points granted to employees who participate in courses, and they also have online courses available for their employees who can pass by taking a test. This is something that they can complete on their own time.

What I like the most about Cornerstone is that it is agile. It has good built-in processes and the implementation is rapid.

This is a cost-effective solution.

This solution needs to be less simplified.

It has a different look and feel, and the clients need to have it look like the other applications. You should be able to go in and change the look and feel of the system. 

Also, Cornerstone does not have a hybrid architecture. It is only on the cloud and our clients cannot have their data on the cloud. They need a hybrid where the data is inside and the application is on the outside.

In the next release, I would like to see a Hybrid architecture and to be able to customize the look and feel.

I have been familiar with the solution for a while now, but I am not using it. I am managing the project and of the implementation of it.

This solution is completely stable. Whatever they say works, just works. There have been no issues.

This solution is scalable. You only have to purchase more licenses.

We have four thousand users, who are government workers.

We have one full-time person who is doing the maintenance. For the first six months, we had two people providing on-the-job training.

I haven't needed to contact technical support because we have the implementor who knows the system very well.

Previously we did not use another solution, this is the first time that we have worked with LMS.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It took three months to deploy.

We used a professional implementor for the system.

We did not evaluate other solutions. They came to me only after I chose this solution.

It's a cloud application so it's always current.

We have integrated it with SAP HR, and it works well.

Our customers are not all that familiar with the product. They have only just gone into production and started using it. Once they have worked with it some more, they might find that it needs some modifications.

I would recommend this solution.

I would rate this product and eight out of ten.

• I value the mobility: Anytime and anywhere
• Ubiquity of technology: Accessible via browser, tablet, or smartphone

It has provided the ability to build cross-functional teams. It enables collaboration across a globally dispersed organization.

The mobile app needs improving. The product roadmap indicates that the improvements being released this year will put the mobile app and browser version at the same level.

I have used the product for two years personally, and for four years in my current organization.

The platform itself is very stable and secure. Just like with anything cloud, however, you are always going to encounter issues that are not common and resolved within minutes.

No issues with scalability were encountered. One of the platform benefits is the ease of scalability.

I would give technical support a rating of 7/10.

At our current organization, this has been the platform of choice.

I was not involved in the initial setup.

Ask the vendor to arrange to engage you with customers who are the same size and see how they implemented the solution. Ask them what challenges they encountered. Find out what licensing options were considered and reflecting on their initial decision, if they would change anything now.

As mentioned, I was not involved in the initial setup

Do your own research, speak to current customers, get access to the platform and test it for the months. Test everything: ILT, VLT, Web, Video, Mobile, Communities, etc.
