"Fairly easy to use LMS for a small to mid size organization"

It's a fairly intuitive interface that allows me to use it as an administrator (at a basic level) without much complication or time required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TalentLMS?

Canned presentations do not include regulatory safety training. Tracking Live Training sessions still seems a bit clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good intuitive LMS that packs a punch at a low price point"
What do you like best about TalentLMS?

TalentLMS has a lot of really great features at a low price point. From the TalentCraft AI functionalities, through to the plethora of learning activities and modules, I've been really impressed with just how much TalentLMS packs into one platform. Implementation was very easy and quick, Salesforce integration was a bonus, and we also appreciated the visible pricing on the website. Bonus points too that it's a very inexpensive product, and allows for 12 month terms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TalentLMS?

As it's at a very low price point, functionality is not as fleshed out as other LMSes - it's comprehensive in course creation but fairly basic in other areas. We couldn't easily access reporting for some reason, as an example, which was a shame and could have been a really great feature for us to start reporting revenue impact of our learning to the business. The Salesforce functionality, whereas appreciated, was also fairly lacking - it would have been great to have TalentLMS integrated alongside opportunities with AI recommended courses and content for our sellers.

It is easy to insert different types of content (native or integrated), in the preferred order. Access to the platform is simple and the discussion forums are a very useful tool for exchanging ideas and opinions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would prefer to have the possibility of linking the contents, which are gradually unlocked automatically, according to rules determined by the instructor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use LMS Platform"
What do you like best about TalentLMS?

What I like about the TalentLMS platform is how easy it is to use. For me, as a first-time LMS user with no background in managing an LMS platform, the implementation was easy and smooth. The features for uploading various contents in different formats were really good. The custom report function was also helpful as it is not complicated at all, plus the availability of customization to brand it is also available which is great.

The customer support is always helpful. They are ready to sort things out when you face some challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TalentLMS?

There are limitations to some features such as doing mass actions on assigning customized certificates to all courses in the library, mass update of role to courses (e.g. instructor to learner). Also, the summing up of training hours is not possible as the training hours in the report is generated by text, e.g.31m 55s. So I have to put a formula to sum up the total training hours.

"TalentLMS - An Ideal platform for Employee Learning, Development & Engagement"
What do you like best about TalentLMS?

Gamification - As an L&D Manager who administers courses to all employees in my organization via. TalentLMS, I've noticed teams are motivated by Gamification of learning. The daily leaderboard keeps them active on the platform, ensures they go through courses in time & attempt assessments with seriousness (to achieve 100% results).

Training Matrix - this helps me a lot as a manager to create reports and present a holistic view of it to the management.

Infographics - Perfect for a bird's eye view for employees (users)

Reports - Super helpful for weekly and monthly report generation (users, courses etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TalentLMS?

As an organization we've subscribed to 1-year of TalentLibrary access.

If it were available (some part of it, as in few courses every month) for free, it would have benefitted small (yet growing) companies like us in the Indian sub-continent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
