A solution with great customization and visually appealing features
I rate this solution a nine out of ten. Storyline has so much flexibility, and you can do so much fun with it. It's top-rated. You can do basic things and get carried away with Storyline. However, if you're looking to convert a PowerPoint presentation into something that looks nice or has an embedded video where the speaker would be, iSpring Learn is a good solution. It's a great program, and we use many features. For example, we use Camtasia for video and screen recordings. If we want to create a game or start something from scratch and customize it for the user with graphics and places with many engagement features, we can use either Articulate or Storyline. Everything is contained in one window, and it's visually appealing. We can scroll down, and it's almost like a webpage where we get all the information. iSpring Learn is made so that we can create visually appealing and engaging content with just a PowerPoint presentation. Sometimes we have people who give us a PowerPoint and say, "Can you do something with this? Can you make it pretty?" Or they'll provide us with audio and say, "I recorded these slides for PowerPoint. Can we jazz it up? Can we do something?" So we put the picture or their bio with their contact information. If they have any attachments, we'll add resources to them. Then we convert the PowerPoint and add the audio, which looks great. iSpring Learn is easy to work with.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can quickly convert PowerPoint to e-Learning modules and add video and other resources to our e-Learning modules."
"I find the user interface user-friendly compared to the initial application."
"The solution's most valuable feature is tracking."
"The platform's most valuable feature is personalized learning recommendations."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning is highly scalable."
"The best feature of SAP SuccessFactors Learning for me is the assignment profile. It's a rather specific feature, but this is what comes to mind."
"The implementation of SAP SuccessFactors Learning has definitely impacted our operational efficiency and cost savings."
"The most valuable features are continuous performance, activities, achievements, objectives for performance appraisal, and development learning."
"I like the product because it has logically synchronized modules."
 

Cons

"I would recommend some enhancements to the product."
"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."
"There is room for enhancement in their core HR system, Employee Central."
"Some features of SAP SuccessFactors Learning that require improvement include reporting tools and dashboarding, which are not so good, and integration is really difficult."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning doesn't have a punch-in and punch-out facility."
"The technical support team has room for improvement."
"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."
"I am talking about SAP in general, so there are multiple screens that you have to go through, and it takes some time to get used to it."
"The GUI and dashboards are areas in the solution with shortcomings where improvements are required."
