What do you like best about Skilljar by Gainsight?
Having implemented a number of learning platforms in the past, it was truly refreshing to work with Northpass, a company and product in relative infancy. This means that they've been able to take a fresh look at how to make online learning simple yet engaging, that they take time to listen to their customers as they build out their roadmap, and they are not bound by archaic and ugly technologies that are difficut to evolve with the times.
With Northpass, I was able to realize the academy that we needed, without comprimise. We were able to look forward to what we wanted to deliver not just over the coming months, but the coming years - and we we able to build that prior to our launch.
Northpass may lack some of the administrative depth of the full-suite HR systems, but all of this is achievable through thier APIs, if you need it. Instead, Northpass allows you to put learning into the hands of those who need it, fast. The simplicity of the platform out of the box is its strength, and it's adaptability is its superpower. The last thing your learners need is to have to learn your platform as well as your content - we've only recieved positive feedback from our learners about the platform. Northpass is intutitive and through the liquid templates allows you to directly edit your pages and your static content.
It;s pricing structure is a breathe of fresh air in an industry designed to cost you more $$ the more successful your programs are. This is fine if you're monetizing education, but it's hard getting executive sponsorship when your response to being quizzed on costs is that you can't give a definitive answer - it's very rare that you ever know exactly how many users or active users you'll end up having.
The implementation team delivered to our specifications, and their support team is responsive and take the time to explain when needed. Our dedicated CSM is awesome - always on hand if we need her, and is an advocates for our needs back into the business.

What do you dislike about Skilljar by Gainsight?
Things can occasionally feel a bit scrappy, but that's expected from a young company. The oproduct lacks a lot of bonus features that other vendors offer, but as the product grows I expect these to be even better from Northpass, who aren't dealing with pushing updates out on an older platform - or worse still, having to aquire them in to make end-user experiences disjointed.
