"Good platform as LMS, but room for improvement"

March 6, 2025
4.0 Show more details
Overall, is a ver good tool, has everything you need, despite having a look&feel a bit "old". I think they can improve and have a much better platform.
Pros:
Has a lot of trainings and resources, available anytime and from different devices.
Cons:
Has a look&feel still antiquated, I expected a bit more and a better user experience from one of the best solutions in the market.

"Looks a little old but does the job"

July 2, 2025
4.0 Show more details
Provides a platform for structured learning, with clear objectives, timely automated reminders, follow ups, and easy to view metrics of progress across a team. Interface a little outdated but otherwise easy to use.
Pros:
It does a good job of storing all our companies' training courses and keeping track and sending out training reminders to ensure we are compliant with OHS.
Cons:
The software can be somewhat clunky to use and not save progress properly at times or close training modules prior to saving, requiring me to find ways to "hack' progress so I can complete the course without rewatching everything.

"Average experience"

January 25, 2026 New
3.0 Show more details
Average. I will say our contact was very helpful and knowledgeable. She did her best to help with what she could.
Pros:
Ability to add our training to the system and track completion, lots of options to select from in their library.
Cons:
Difficult to set up reviews, observation checklists, etc. There were way too many steps and it was frustrating.

"Cornerstone Does It All - Solid But Sometimes Cumbersome"

November 29, 2025
4.0 Show more details
I was an administrator, uploading eLearning courses and creating curricula, as well as assigning and managing courses, as well as creating custom reports.
Pros:
It is great for course management and reporting as it provides a lot of options for fine-tuning now you want the course to display and with what options. It also provides excellent customer support.
Cons:
The interface is a little dated; some of it has been updated, but then when you get into the deeper levels of settings, it reverts back to an older interface. Also, the content creation tools are limited.
