"The selling quite good on start. But after the contract happened..."

0/5

What do you like best about CYPHER Learning?

The selling quite good on start. But after the contract happened everything everything goes bad instantly.

After the refund request management stopping to answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CYPHER Learning?

I regret to say that our experience with this LMS has been negative. While they were extremely attentive and responsive when it came to getting money from us, their behavior took a drastic turn when issues and conflicts arose.

Initially, we were impressed with their sales pitch and the promises they made about their LMS. They assured us of excellent customer support, and the ability to use specific integration functionality which was crucial for us, and claimed to be available for assistance. However, when we encountered real problems, particularly regarding the system's functionality, their responsiveness disappeared into the air.

They were miraculously available at all hours to discuss payments, but when it came to addressing the issues that were plaguing our LMS experience, they vanished. Despite repeated follow-ups, emails, and reminders, they chose to ignore our inquiries for assistance.

In addition to their unresponsiveness, their failure to resolve conflicts and provide adequate support has severely impacted our ability to effectively utilize this LMS. As a result, our organization's training and educational initiatives have been severely hindered, causing frustration among both our staff and learners.

I strongly advise caution before considering this LMS for your educational or training needs. If you encounter any issues or conflicts, don't expect any meaningful assistance or resolution from them. Our experience with this LMS has been very disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Avoid Cypher Learning / Matrix LMS"

0/5

What do you like best about CYPHER Learning?

After being with them for 3 years there's not really much to like.

We're currently migrating away from Matrix because the list of frustrations has continued to grow longer and longer and nobody at the company cares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CYPHER Learning?

Customer support

Management/Executive team

Price doubling since we've been onboard

Outdated UI

Our students find platform not user friendly

Lots and lots of bugs - they try to add so many features that they cannot stay on top of resolving the bugs.

And more...

Overall Matrix is a feature-focused LMS. All they care about is having the most extensive list of features - more than any other LMS. If they've done this then they've succeeded as having the best LMS in their minds. Unfortunately this drive for only features leaves the clients feedback and requirements unheard. This has resulted in many frustrations with their platform from having to work inside of constraints and quirks that they refuse to acknowledge or address.

Additionally, they pretend to be such a large organization with 12 offices all over the world. However upon searching these addresses appear to be nothing more than virtual offices and in our 3 years of working with them it is always the same 5-8 people who handle all requests from sales, to product development, apps and customizations. Many times communication with these individuals is completely ignored and not responded to from their end.

Also, upon using tools like BuiltWith.com and looking at which apps on the iOS and Google Play store are actually using their platform and mobile apps there are very few companies that can actually be found that are utilizing it. Are they pretending to be larger than what they actually are?

You invest all the time needing to learn the complexities of their platform and build out your program only to find once you have everything built out they raise the price again and again. So you are locked in paying increasingly higher prices.

We're honestly fed up with the way they do business and are investing heavily in building our own platform which we will be migrating to soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CYPHER Learning:

If you're simply coming to Matrix for its list of features there are other powerful enterprise level LMS's out there. Or a very comprehensive, low cost LMS is LearnDash. It can be built out with many of the same features and honestly can be much more powerful in a lot of ways. With the right hosting and setup it can work for enterprise and there's not a monthly or per user fee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CYPHER Learning solving and how is that benefiting you?

Matrix helped us scale to a certain point because they're platform is powerful and is hosted on Amazon which allows for a large number of students all on the platform at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Look Elsewhere"

0/5

What do you like best about CYPHER Learning?

It was very affordable when we originally signed up a few years ago, but the price has since more than doubled.

Has some nice customizations and intigrations.

They do seem to release features somewhat frequintly (its how they justify the price increases) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CYPHER Learning?

The GUI is dated.

Support is only handled through their forum.

Reporting is a nightmare.

The API could be way more useful.

The Common Cartridge format they choose is not all that common, despite them saying it's an "industry standard."

The UX is clunky and not really intuitive at all.

The course creator tool leaves a lot to be desired.

Price has more than doubled since we signed on.

Their documentation needs improvement and needs to be more easily accessible, like a dedicated page, not some popup inside the service...

Their XAPI features are lackluster and difficult to implement.

We're actually in the process of migrating away from Matrix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CYPHER Learning:

Get a demo, and try before you buy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CYPHER Learning solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were looking for an affordable LMS to get our staff training off the ground. It's no longer worth the price tag, there are better options out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Keep looking!!"

0/5

What do you like best about CYPHER Learning?

I can't really say \*anything I liked best about NEO. The system is inefficient and not user friendly. I wanted to like it after sitting through training but it just doesn't work as promised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CYPHER Learning?

Everything. From classes not being listed in any certain order to it just being basic user UNfriendly. It's hard to maneuver, didn't show due dates on assignments; difficult to log on to; times you out; very UNseamless connection to google drive; app frequently didn't work. Assignments would not post correctly. Essentially, all parts of it are horrid. Students hated it just as much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CYPHER Learning:

I would keep looking. What should be easy processes are frequently convoluted. It's not seamless with Google Drive as promised so that's a big problem. The organization is also very strange. Things are not in any kind of order so it makes things hard to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CYPHER Learning solving and how is that benefiting you?

Really? NONE. I solved NO problems with NEO; it just made all the students angry. NO benefits. NEO was promised as something that was seamless with Google Drive and would make everything easier and was better than Google Classroom.This was not the case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"For the price, you can do better."

0/5

What do you like best about CYPHER Learning?

The course layout is intuitive. Gradebook features are good -- video and audio feedback is possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CYPHER Learning?

Discussion boards are difficult/not intuitive. Programming each module is clumsy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CYPHER Learning solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used NEO for our graduate programs until two weeks ago. When we did a full cost-benefit analysis, it was not profiting our user base. We transitioned the entire undergraduate and graduate catalog of courses to Canvas as of the Summer 2021 term. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
