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.

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.

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.

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.

The pricing for the entry level product is fair for what the service offers—there is actually a good bit of useful functionality IF you can wade through their documentation. Our experience is that there's actually a lot more possible in the platform than is apparent at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UX is not very good and it's built on old and out of date technology that requires users to adjust their browser settings for the learning experience to works as expected. Users do not like to turn on "cross-browser tracking" but it's basically a requirement to function correctly. There are also arbitrary file size limits which make it impossible to host larger SCORM / XAPI files. Fortunately, the company was kind enough to increase my limits after some escalation.

Conducting workplace training has been a breeze since we moved to TalentLMS. It allows easy uploads from a variety of formats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tabs for additional documents when viewing training slides may not be obvious to the user. Definitely benefit from making it more prominent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LMS provides user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to use for all levels of user. We particularly like that it allows for quick course creation, user registration, and content upload. Love the talent craft for creating courses!

As well as create our own content, we can SCORM through training courses from other providers.

It's very forgiving…if you have not set things up quite right, this is easy to correct and adjust.

It includes analytics and reporting tools that help track learner progress, exam performance, and more. We love the training matrix, we can see instantly where the training needs/gaps are.

TalentLMS offers strong customer support through various channels including email, phone, and live chat. The onboarding specialist who was allocated to us is first class, he really knows this system. We have had very positive interaction with your live chat service too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We wish we could register time spent for practical “on the job” training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Price is definitely a major plus for Talent LMS, it is significantly cheaper than other LMS offerings. Talent LMS is relatively easy to administer once you get the hang of how things are organized in Talent LMS. Using the Groups, Branches, and Categories features of Talent LMS allows you to organize content in a variety of useful ways. The Talent LMS support group and the dedicated account manager are very helpful and very attentive, even with a significant time difference between the US and Israel (where the Talent team is located). The ability to customize the User Interface with our corporate branding is also very advantageous. Implementing Talent was not the hardest thing I have ever undertaken, but like anything new, there was a little bit of a learning curve to deal with in order to get the system setup and organized in the way that suited our particular implementation best. I use the platform everyday and now feel very confident in the administration of the system. We now have 300 internal, customer, and partner personnel on the portal using it on a daily basis, taking advantage of the 75 courses currently available. Overall we are happy with our decision to go with Talent LMS. Integration with Stripe for individual Subscription Payment was very easy to set up and implement, and we are working on the integration with Salesforce, and that is a little more complex but not that difficult, the integration guide is very helpful.

Talent LMS does have some downsides, especially in the area of reporting. The reporting capabilities need to be enhanced in a variety of ways. They have a number of good, out-of-the-box reports, but these reports cannot be edited or modified in any way. The custom reporting capability focuses purely on students or courses. There is no ability to report on learning paths or learning tracks. Not all fields of information in the system are available to be used in reporting, which causes you to have to recreate certain types of information as a custom field so that you can add it to a report, which is a duplication of effort. Rule writing is limited in Talent LMS reporting, offering a fixed, finite number of report conditions that can be used to generate a report, instead of allowing the user to create custom conditions for their report. Talent is very much locked into the traditional Student/Course paradigm of training, and needs to expand the capabilities of the system to be more flexible and embrace the micro-learning paradigm where learning tracks/paths can be defined, tracked and reported. Notifications, like reporting, are limited in their scope, there are a fixed, finite number of event types that you can use to trigger a notification, and the fields that can be used in the notification are also limited.

TalentLMS has been very helpful in our organization for its ability to be customized to our needs. I also appreciate the quick customer support I receive through the Help function. I did anticipate a bit more assistance on training when we first got started but overall, most of the LMS is easy to use and to figure out through the helpful knowledge base and again, asking for assistance when needed. I know our organization is different from others they have worked with before so I appreciate their ability to also pivot for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few features that I think could be touched up on or added. For instance, we would like to use the discussions function but there is currently no filtering or review system and with hundreds of learners using our courses, it seems like it would be unsafe to use until they can give us this feature. Our program does a mixture of in-person training courses and online courses. When we do the webinars, some folks attend live and some end up watching the session as an uploaded video. Due to this, I have to manually "push" folks through the video recording portion of these courses if they attended live which can be quite tedious - I wish that they had a feature with the import functionality to push users up to a certain point in a course without a full completion - which I think is the only functionality for import that would come close to this. I did recommend it to the tech team as a feature we would really like. My only other gripe is with the custom reports not always seeming to go out to the people I have assigned for it to automatically send to after generated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
