Ethena Reviews & Product Details

I like the humor that Ethena adds into the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like training to be assigned to each person individually when it is needed to be renewed. Right now it is assigned to everyone each January and it is annoying for people who may have just completed the training say, in November. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Ethena's dashboard for tracking campaigns incredibly effective. It is straightforward to see who has or has not taken the training, making it easy to manage. The ability to unassign and reassign training ensures seamless adjustments when needed. Additionally, Ethena makes it simple to send notifications and nudges to individuals who need to complete their training by a specified time, which is essential for maintaining timely compliance. I also appreciate the integration with Slack, which streamlines communication and ensures that reminders and notifications are efficiently communicated. Ethena's integration with our human resources information system also contributes to an easy initial setup, enhancing its accessibility and usability. Overall, Ethena provides an intuitive and effective solution for managing compliance training, complete with robust reporting and tracking capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the lack of a comprehensive view for directors within Ethena. Currently, there isn't a mechanism for a director to see whether their entire team, including managers and individual contributors, has completed training. The manager insights feature is limited to one's direct team, making it challenging to access broader team data easily. This is a frequent query we encounter.

I find Ethena's sales team incredible. They're knowledgeable and engaged whenever I speak to them. They're genuinely interested in solving our problems rather than just making a sale. Additionally, their training is great and makes staying in compliance with the constantly changing global training requirements easier for us since we have offices worldwide. The initial setup was incredibly easy, acting as a drop-in replacement for what we were using before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's really nothing I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate Ethena's seamless integration with TriNet, our HRIS. This means new hires are automatically enrolled, and when someone leaves the company, they are automatically removed, significantly reducing administrative overhead, likely by a factor of three. The ease of accessing Ethena via email links has also solved issues we once had with password management and login frustrations. Additionally, Ethena's content aligns perfectly with our corporate culture, ensuring that training is relevant and appropriate. The self-management capabilities are outstanding; the manager dashboards are easy to comprehend, allowing managers to oversee their teams effectively and send reminder emails as needed. The automatic content saving every thirty seconds adds a layer of reliability we value, ensuring no progress is lost. Lastly, setting up Ethena was incredibly simple and quick, taking only about ten to fifteen minutes, which left me impressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find that the integration of modules within Ethena is less than optimal. Specifically, when transitioning from federal training to state-specific training, the process can be a bit jumpy and not as smooth as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Ethena's seamless integration with TriNet, which simplifies the administration process significantly. This integration streamlines our HR compliance training, automatically enrolling new hires and removing departing employees, which has drastically reduced manual data updates and administration time, likely by a factor of three. This feature has been a game-changer for me compared to systems without such integration, where I had to manually manage updates. Additionally, Ethena offers great admin dashboards and provides timely reminders to managers and employees, enhancing overall efficiency. The simplicity of accessing the platform, requiring just a link for login, contributes to its user-friendliness. The initial setup of Ethena was incredibly simple, which made the transition effortless. Furthermore, Ethena's interface and management dashboards are notably better, providing a superior user experience compared to the previous system we used, Skillsoft, which did not integrate with TriNet. Overall, Ethena's robust integration and user-friendly design make it highly effective for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say the interaction or connection between different modules could be a little smoother. Specifically, when we have training that is federal or national mixed with something that is deployed for the specific state of the user, such as in California, the connection between the two modules seems a bit jumpy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ethena stands out for its engaging, bite-sized training modules that make compliance training less of a task and more of a learning opportunity. I appreciate how the content is relevant and tailored, keeping people interested without taking too much time.

The trainings are interactive and scenario-based, which helps in better understanding and retention of complex topics. Its ease of access and flexibility make it convenient, especially with busy schedules. The real-world examples Ethena uses help bridge the gap between policy and everyday practice.

While Ethena’s short, frequent modules are a strength, the notifications can sometimes feel frequent. It would be helpful to have an option to set preferred notification times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Ethena because it speeds up the onboarding process for new hires and reduces the necessary time for live facilitation of training. It helps us remain compliant with all state laws, particularly in areas like harassment prevention training. Their recent updates have allowed more personalization in building content. The notification features are strong, ensuring that assignments are completed on time. I also find the learning library to be an excellent centralized resource, which was a crucial improvement as our trainings were previously scattered across various platforms like Google Drive and Confluence. Furthermore, Ethena has saved a considerable amount of administrative time for our HR team and others involved in facilitating enablement trainings. The initial setup was easy, thanks to the team meeting with us live to ensure everything was set up smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd love to see Ethena reintroduce the feature that controls what percentage of a video the learner needs to watch to qualify as completion of the assignment. Additionally, I would appreciate improvements to content assignment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ethena was recommended to me by a former colleague, and she only had great things to say. Her and I had tried moving onto Ethena at our former company and they were just stuck in their old ways. No biggie, it happens. Well, I’m now the HR Manager at a tech/social media start-up (I’m also an HR team of 1), the decision maker, and we needed Harassment Prevention Training. I knew I wanted to give Ethena a try, and honestly, I am BLOWN AWAY!!!! <--- if I could scream this from the rooftops I would.

I also want to share that my personal bread and butter is HRIS implementations, so I’m pretty comfortable with systems. Ethena truly has a solution for everything. I didn’t need to speak with sales since we’re only 15 employees, and within an hour I had the platform fully set up, customized the way I wanted, and ready to go. The price point was perfect (I also didn’t even look at anyone else 🤭).

I used your chat a few times and was amazed that the AI had every answer, even for some fairly nuanced questions. I did connect with a human once (Lauren Bareket), and she was so quick, kind, and helpful with her guidance.

The analytics and reporting dashboard are incredible. I’ve been in HR for 10 years and as I’m sure you’ve heard (and probably one of the main reasons you created Ethena) have used so many different training platforms, most of which are outdated, clunky, and boring. Our last LMS wouldn't mark some employees completed and we would need our employees to complete the training ALL OVER AGAIN. Can you believe that?! Ethena is the opposite…it’s clean, modern, easy, and honestly just.. refreshing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I had to suggest an improvement, it would be making it easier to see where employees are in their training progress. I wouldn’t call it a ‘dislike,’ just an area that could be made more seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how seamlessly Ethena integrates with our existing systems through Single Sign-On (SSO), making it incredibly easy to use and saving us time. The platform's user-friendly design is another highlight, providing a much friendlier experience compared to our previous provider, Mineral. I find the Slack integrations particularly beneficial for setting reminders, which helps keep everyone on track with compliance training schedules. Our transition to Ethena was motivated by these superior integration capabilities, and the platform did not disappoint, offering a straightforward implementation process. Overall, these features contribute significantly to our positive experience with Ethena. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the trainings offered by Ethena to be a little bit cheesy, which could make them seem less professional or serious at times, despite being otherwise engaging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have relied on Ethena for all our harassment compliance training over the past few years. It’s extremely helpful to have a reliable source of content that is consistently updated, so we don’t have to monitor changing regulations across different states ourselves. The team is excellent to work with, and the content is always delivered on time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The AI course builder still has some progress to make before it can compete with more established products in this field. At the moment, it relies mainly on slides and lacks the level of interactivity we would prefer. Because of this, we decided to wait and observe how the platform evolves as new features are introduced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
