Cornerstone LMS

Un outil complet et complexe

Commentaires : Un outil reconnu sur le marché international. La solution permet de piloter efficacement la gestion des talents mais avec une complexité dans l'utilisation aussi bien côté collaborateurs que RH.

Avantages :

Un outil complet qui permet de piloter la performance des collaborateurs de l'entreprise, d'accompagner les projets professionnels, de gérer les compétences au sens large ainsi que les revues des talents.

Inconvénients :

Une solution complexe qui nécessite l'appui de consultants ou d'équipes IT : les RH ne peuvent pas générer de façon autonome les campagnes d'entretiens / reportings... Un outil peu intuitif pour les collaborateurs. Un service client payant avec un système d'abonnement pour avoir un délai de réponse correct.

Cornerstone LMS - Great product!

Avantages :

I like that CSOD is an integrated HRIS system. It has a great end-user experience and a nice interface.

Inconvénients :

Some of the file size limits are an issue. and some of the functionality does not work as one would assume. However, there are a lot of tools and resources to find ways to make the functionality work for your company.

You get what you pay for

Commentaires : It's been slowly improving. I would say that our experience is limited as so many functions are outside of the Learning Module. We purchased a smaller version and I think it shows as we are continuously struggling to make it suit our needs the way we want.

Avantages :

I think that the recent changes have made the system more user friendly, but it is still not the most clear system. It manages transcripts fairly well.

Inconvénients :

I assume (as I was hired after implementation) that you need to request it, but our permissions are more limited than I would like. We can't run reports like utilization metrics, or who is in what security role which really limits our abilities. We also don't have backend design privileges and as a web developer that is infuriating. I would say usability is less than desirable as there are HTML issues, and Transcript functionality confuses people. There isn't a natural or logical way to set up accommodation requests even when using custom forms, which in my opinion is a very bad issue. We of course have text in the email, but it's insufficient and has caused issues.

Pourquoi choisir Cornerstone LMS : I can't guarantee I selected the right product we switched from but we switched due to the very limited functionality.

Pourquoi passer à Cornerstone LMS : We chose it for functionality as Cornerstone offers a lot. I will say that the scope of what we need has shifted and I am not sure that it would have ended on the same decision if we were making it now.

LMS with a lot of Capabilities

Commentaires : We want to drive users to go into the LMS so that they can utilize all of the learning thats offered. With Cornerstone releasing Learner Home it was a great way to get users into the system because it reminds them of Netflix which is fun.

Avantages :

I like that Cornerstone is constantly releasing new tools and features to enhance the LMS. They really listen to their customers and take in all advice to make necessary upgrades. The software is easy to navigate and use. Making ILT sessions and events is straightforward. I also like how you can add badges to a learning object so that way learners feel good when they accomplish something. Also, the reporting capabilities are great and there are a number of reports you can generate to analyze how the system is being utilized.

Inconvénients :

The Quiz functionality of the system is not good and not easy to use. Its not modern and every test you make has to be out of 100. Also, you can drag and drop questions in whatever order you want them to be. The tool is limited and needs to be upgraded for easier use.

Pourquoi passer à Cornerstone LMS : Approval Workflow - we needed managers to get notified whenever an employee registered for an event through the system for scheduling purposes.

Cornerstone LMS not great for complicated builds

Commentaires : My experience is both good and bad. Good in that I have gotten used to the way the product works and can maneuver well. Bad in that its tedious work and there are areas where streamlining is needed.

Avantages :

Cornerstone was an improvement over the LMS platforms we were using 5 years ago. It handles large amounts of learning objects and dynamic assignments well if its simple. It doesn't like complicated assignments. The system works well with a simple set of learning objects assigned to a simple group with a due date. If you need to build a complicated group (one with many parameters), it may not work as well. Also the removal of items is a challenge when you are removing from a large number of transcripts.

Inconvénients :

the administration of cornerstone is not straight forward. There are a lot of nuances that come up when you are completing various activities. There is also the inconsistencies with various screens throughout. In some areas you can click check all or uncheck all to select multiple objects. In other areas you cannot and have to click individually, which is time consuming.
