Director at Apian Consultancy

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.

Cons

"It's highly dependent on other tools."

"SAP SuccessFactors Learning's e-learning portal has a very poor interface when compared to Cornerstone or PeopleFluent. It's a very basic interface, but I know that it has a very good foundation."

"The solution should have a more user-friendly dashboard because its current dashboard is not so great."

"SAP SuccessFactors Learning doesn't have a punch-in and punch-out facility."

"The product needs to improve its escalation system."

"The only drawback of the tool is that it is dependent on its database."

"This solution does not support right to left for the Arabic Language, and the Arabic text support is very bad."

"Licensing is a major challenge in the solution."

"What needs improvement in SAP SuccessFactors Learning is the user interface. The user management and the integration of the whole suite could also be improved. The solution also needs to be modernized because at the moment, it's a little bit outdated. It's old-fashioned, and though it has a data import feature, that's just plain outdated. SAP SuccessFactors Learning doesn't have any cutting-edge features."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing changes and the license amount is quite costly."

"The additional costs in the solution are based on usage and in regard to the functionalities or services leveraged."

"I rate the price for SAP SuccessFactors Learning an eight out of ten, with ten being the highest."

"The tool is cheap."

"My company does have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. My company considers the solution to be worth its price, but we don't consider it to be a cheap solution."

"Compared to Workday, SAP SuccessFactors Learning is not an expensive solution."

"The solution is expensive, but it's a good product."
