Cons

"One area I would like to improve in SAP SuccessFactors Learning is the overall user experience and product feedback loop."
"This solution does not support right to left for the Arabic Language, and the Arabic text support is very bad."
"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 The solution also needs to be modernized because at the moment, it's a little bit outdated. It's old-fashioned, and though it has a data import feature, that's just plain outdated.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."
"The product's configuration process needs improvement."
"The solution should have a more user-friendly dashboard because its current dashboard is not so great."
"The product needs to improve its escalation system."

"The licensing cost for SAP SuccessFactors Learning is rather expensive, but it's not the only SAP tool my company uses in the suite, so it's very hard to compare prices."
"I rate the price for SAP SuccessFactors Learning an eight out of ten, with ten being the highest."
"The price of SAP SuccessFactors Learning could be better, it is expensive. There is an annual subscription. It's overpriced for small enterprises."
