"We purchased OpenSesame to replace our old vendor in June of 2023."
5/5
What do you like best about OpenSesame?

The large selection of courses, and the ability to direct-send courses to individual users; also, the ability to add preview accounts to each group. Also like the help provided by the curation team. Customer support is awesome, they respond very quickly whenever we have any questions/issues. We use SuccessFactors LMS, it integrates with the LMS very easily. For required Safety courses, the user base is quite high, and we're working on adding more professional development courses to our catalogue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSesame?

I know the team is working on this, but at this time we only have one user who is an administrator. We would like to have multiple account administrators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
