Opiniones de LatitudeLearning

I am a one person training department who relies heavily on Latitude learning to help me.

Comentarios: OSHA compliance and tracking. New employee on-boarding. Monthly safety training. I do all of this with the help of Latitude learning.

Puntos a favor:

It works. My learners like to use the system and the training. Your support people are the best. They are always willing to answer a question and help out.

Puntos en contra:

I have looked at the Captivate LMS and like the visual graphic interface. It is difficult to (for me) change my certification curriculum. I would like to see templates of pages to use for my site. I am not a HTML programmer, so making pages easier for me would be better. Possibly the use of an outside tool like DreamWeaver, XD, or other easy to use webpage builder and import a page.

Does exactly what I need.

Comentarios: Helps us track certifications for our training department.

Puntos a favor:

You cannot beat the price. The value of what you get for the money cannot be beat. 100 concurrent users for free is amazing.

Puntos en contra:

I wish the reporting was a little bit better. I would love to be able to see better stats regarding questions missed on tests.

Difficult to Learn

Comentarios: I was looking for a way to run an online school. I did not find what I needed and would not recommend this website based on my experience.

Puntos a favor:

It seems to look nice. What? Do I need to add more before you will allow me to go on? There is nothing more good I can say about it.

Puntos en contra:

It is difficult to setup and create courses. There are many other LMSs out there that are much easier for the teacher to setup and use. I was looking for a replacement for Instructure's Canvas that also has a free for teachers service, but does not allow the setup of a school in the free for teachers program. LL seems to have the school, but it leaves a lot of unanswered questions and no apparent way to find the answers. What would have been better would be if they automatically enrolled you in their own course that explains how to use their service. Frankly, I just got frustrated trying to figure it out and gave up. It just was not worth the effort.

Not a bad system for the money

Comentarios: It's ok. Not the best on the market.

Puntos a favor:

A lot of functionality and features. Definitely will meet a majority of a company's needs. This is a big strength of the system.

Puntos en contra:

It's not very user friendly. The learning curve is high and even then the steps are very complicated. Seems like they could find easier ways to do tasks.

Effective once all the steps are complete

Comentarios: The product and support elements were there for my organization when most needed; this was hugely appreciated and just-in-time.

Puntos a favor:

Ability to assess with custom assets - the functionality is clean and simple and easy to populate with custom questions and distractors.

Puntos en contra:

Over-engineered system for importing new users - hierarchy options try to drill too deep. When importing users I have to complete several other group requirements that are unnecessary for my implementation.

Just what we needed!

Comentarios: We didn't have to invest a ton of money to develop a new-hire skills assessment that we only use once in a while, but it's there when we need it.

Puntos a favor:

There is a great deal of flexibility in the assessment styles. We needed a solution for a pre-hire skills assessment. I used to be a K-12 teacher, and I was looking for something inexpensive to use in my current role in HR, but we didn't want to invest a ton of money into something we wouldn't use very often. This really solved all of our problems.

Puntos en contra:

The only thing that I feel is missing from this user experience is a way to filter teacher-touch essays and non-auto-graded questions through the grading system. My workaround is to assume those questions are going to be scored incorrectly, and inform the user beforehand that their score will not reflect accurately their skill level.

Pretty good solution for my needs

Comentarios: Improved learning process of employees among with other E-learning tools we use.

Puntos a favor:

compatibibilty with our internal softwares. Issues and errors are rare. Adaptations can be done quickly and efficiently. No frequent/earnest need yet to contact custommer support, but I guess thats a good sign.

Puntos en contra:

Somehow the interface of tools. Doesn't allways work intuitive. I still have issues making reports, I sometimes need different information but the provided info.

Great if you are getting started

Puntos a favor:

I have used the free version of this for some time. It is a cost-effective way to publish courses online.

Puntos en contra:

The out of the box version is ugly. It takes a lot of knowledge and work to make it not look cookie cutter.

Excellent experience so far, helped make training in our workplace more accessible.

Comentarios: Logging of user training completion is made much easier, and also the ability for employees to be able to train when they have time makes it easier than having to pull them into a room at different times in order to go over training. This helps a lot considering we have more than one location.

Puntos a favor:

There are lots of features and customization's available right off the bat with the site. There are many different options for class setup and presentations. Also one thing I like a lot is the ability to generate the various reports which makes keeping logs for compliance purposes easier.

Puntos en contra:

There is a little learning curve when it comes uploading classes and creating classes, but not terribly hard at least. Seems really easy for employees to create their own accounts which sounds good, but when their accounts are predesignated by me, it forces me to go back and merge duplicate accounts to make sure everyone shows the correct completion of courses.

Simple LMS for small projects

Puntos a favor:

If you are in need of an LMS to show your portfolio or just as a sample, then the free small version of Latitute Learning LMS is great. It has a simple but effective amount of features which work perfectly for simple needs.

Puntos en contra:

Obviously, for the price it is basic but if you only need this for showing a portfolio or small-scale courses, then this is great.

Easy to design and understand how to use the LMS

Comentarios: Customer Satisfaction

Puntos a favor:

The software is very easy to use and understand. not having much of a tech background, I was still able to design the system based on our needs. The users manual is very helpful.

Puntos en contra:

I can't think of anything that I dislike about the software. I have already recommended the system to several others

Easy to use and set up

Puntos a favor:

The help desk is very helpful and quick to answer questions. I'm not the most technological person and I have encountered a few questions and they were very quick on getting back to me with the right answer.

We love Latitude so much we signed a five year deal!

Puntos a favor:

Very easy to use. Customer support is excellent, responsive and genuinely seem concern for our satisfaction.

Puntos en contra:

Would like a more contemporary look and feel, kind of like this survey. Would like a more contemporary look and feel, kind of like this survey.

Excellent software that is intuitive.

Comentarios: The ability to catalogue customer learning and offer certification for that learning.

Puntos a favor:

The logic is good so going from one point of process to the next is reasonable. It is relatively easy to use and provides a needed resource for customers.

Puntos en contra:

Some functions could be improved with "smarter" technology so that repeated effort can be avoided. Like name recognition with new entries. The software should be able to suggest it knows what you're inputting and update pervasively so that at all points of the process the information added will be reflected and therefore easier to find.

Meets and exceeds my needs

Comentarios: The learning curve for using Latitude Learning is manageable. Once I 'played' with the functionality it became more intuitive. Once familiar with the system, it works like a dream! It does what I need for my business and is one of my favorite tools.

Puntos a favor:

The quality of the pre-loaded course work is great. It is relevant, to the point and well designed. The ability to do bulk loads, branding and using the 'impersonate' feature is better than I expected.

Puntos en contra:

I'm having some issues getting summary reports, but I have just begun using that feature. Also, I'm no 'techno-genius' so some of the language and definitions were barriers for a while.

Latitude Learning LMS

Comentarios: Overall, if you are a small business with less than 50 employees and you don't have any budget for your corporate training program, this could be somewhere to start. It is cost-effective (fee of zero but excellent customer service experience), as least you have some way to track employees' progress.

Puntos a favor:

Free for employers with less than 50 employees; Responsive and knowledgeable customer service representatives; Contain some open source lectures; Could upload courses, track attendance, and pull reports

Puntos en contra:

The user interface is a little old-fashioned; They do not have a mobile app I don't believe; The open source lecture content format is old-fashioned

Had a great experience with latitude learning for my managers and support team.

Puntos a favor:

I was able to manage training across locations easily with provided service. I was also able to tailor unique training experiences not only categorically but for invidual employees.

Puntos en contra:

Performance metrics needed more specificity. All the tailored training should have more data in metrics. Also different measures as some people do not test well but can perform well.

Good reports, user friendly

Puntos a favor:

Ability to customize the site. We were able to put our logo in to make it more personalized. Very easy to add or delete users. Good reports

Product

Comentarios: I had some trouble signing up at first but once i was able to get the correct account the site was great. I was able to use some of the courses as educational hours for work.

Puntos a favor:

I like that I can access online courses for free.

Puntos en contra:

The content of the courses need to be updated. I believe I may have taken all the courses I can. There is nothing new that I can take.

I've been using it to create learning courses for company use

Comentarios: This is my partner in Learning & Development

Puntos a favor:

Helpful in creating LMS with ease. You can customize its format and you can add / delete some items you feel are not appropriate

Puntos en contra:

Some features do not allow you to edit/delete if you made a mistake such as names of enrollees. Had some difficulty in uploading tests to website

I have had a good experience with the software.

Puntos a favor:

The reports that were available were very helpful for maintaining up to date training records. I was able to see all of our Training Partners who had completed the training and the number of times it took for them complete it. Being able to reset the passwords myself, saved a lot of time.

Puntos en contra:

At some point, the software stopped downloading the training module for new users

Very well developed

Comentarios: none

Puntos a favor:

Makes studying easier and online availability. Wish the capabilities were like this across all platforms and realizes how to use certain infrastructure.

Puntos en contra:

There is a lot of way low security problems in the website. I was able to access the book for free but could not take the quizes because I did not buy the book.

Industrial usage

Comentarios: generally satisfied

Puntos a favor:

Ability to use individual computer presentation

Puntos en contra:

Not set up for industrial atmosphere. - Does not allow auto notification to students when procedures are updated (required reading) - Have not figured out how to import external (third party) training records

Great LMS for the Corporate world

Comentarios: Having been in the corporate training industry for many years, as well as an experience instructional designer, I was looking for the perfect LMS that would track and report staff learning as well as be flexible enough for the trainer and instructional designer. Latitude Learnings LMS is exactly what I was looking for. The ease of use is not just for the learner, but includes the Admin and designer as well. It easily accepts my Captivate files and plays them exactly as intended. Its a great application, simple enough for those that don't need all the bells and whistles and big and strong enough to handle everyone's training needs and requirements. Thanks

I like the price, but I don't like the user interface.

Comentarios: I figured out that I needed a better user interface.

Puntos a favor:

I like that the pricing is low and would help me launch an online training program without too much overhead, especially with the free-tier giving me the ability to beta test my content without having to incur the cost of paying for the LMS. I also like having the ability to run reports on enrolled learners' activity.

Puntos en contra:

The user interface. It's hard to navigate and it's not very appealing visually. It'd be fine if I was doing certifications for plumbers, but it's not going to keep the attention of millennials, who are my primary target audience.
