Intellum Platform

Stands above the grey

Comments: We solved custom success training. The external market is a hard space to solve for and there are even fewer platforms that are up for the tasks needed to be success in deploying to a immense audience with different needs.

Pros:

Intellum is constantly evolving their product getting head industry trend or driving them.

Cons:

The thing the makes them great is also a burden you have to stay on top of the changes but if you do the amount of impact you can drive is amazing.

A powerful business tool that cam be up and running quickly

Comments: We are working to turn scaled education into a business lever for partner loyalty and growth. Intellum "gets" what this means and have helped us to achieve these goals.

Pros:

The Intellum team understands our business, our audience, and helps us configure the tool in a way that's focused on our business objectives.

Cons:

It would be helpful if the product offered native report visualizations.

Alternatives Considered: Adobe Learning Manager

Reasons for Switching to Intellum Platform: The decision came down to who understood our audience and our objectives, it was Intellum, hands down.

Needs to go a long way in order to meet its enterprise price tag

Pros:

- It is easy to do simple tasks. - Has the basic features and functionalities.

Cons:

- The support/customer success team does not cooperate at all and leaves you hanging with open issues/questions for weeks. - The system has really poor file management capabilities and interface. - The report tool is marketed as something really powerful, but in reality it is just an interface for SQL queries that doesn't even show you the actual tables you are querying against.

Customization Capabilities Offer A Big Opportunity

Pros:

We initially brought Intellum in to support our Sales and Support functions of the business (orgs with the "heaviest" training needs). What we've most appreciated about the platform is our ability to customize and build a solution that fits our unique needs. We've connected the platform to our BI platform to drill into reporting and measure impact, and we've connected it with various other systems to gamify learning and present training opportunities to the right people, at the right time. This may be a burden for teams or orgs looking for something that offers more basic functionality in these areas, but in our experience, the upside of being able to customize and marry systems together brings even more value to the tool internally.

Cons:

We've had some challenges with administration as we've extended usage across the business. Namely, controlling access/permissioning so people weren't making content available to the wrong groups of individuals. It's also a bit of a headache to do any bulk updating of content, but it can be done. Their support team did work with us over the course of a few quarter to prioritize some changes that allowed us to clean this up on our end and ensure a tighter grip on content management.

Great, simple platform

Pros:

As a user of this platform for over 6 years, I can say I am very satisfied with the product, especially all of the recent enhancements. It is extremely easy to use for both the admin and the learner. In addition, customer support is over the top. I don't think I've ever waited more than one hour (unless it was the end of the day) for a response to a help ticket....truly unbeatable.

Cons:

Reporting can be someone clunky to non-super users, but overall is great if you know how to use it.
