A powerful and easy-to-use repository that does automatic updates
Articulate 360 got me out from different offering tools that did not offer the same capabilities or usability that Articulate 360 offers. It's really hard to explain it without diving into other tools and just telling how awful they were. Articulate 360 was a revelation for everyone in my field. The solution was very powerful and easy, and I can do so many different things. It just kept going and going, and it snowballed into this thing where it's now the industry standard, and that's really helpful.

Streamlined compliance training and efficient session creation empower diverse industries
Creating a session requires just one click, which makes data ready efficiently. Reporting-wise, Cornerstone is the best. It allows internal content management, playlist creation, using external links for learning, and supports various AI training. All the compliance training, code of conduct, and audits are handled through Cornerstone, making it beneficial.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The platform's most valuable feature is trackability with an interactive element."
"The most valuable features are the speed of development and professionalism of the output that comes from the system. It is also easy to translate to LMS or LXP systems. The storyline tool is also good for more advanced projects. The product has an integrated review valuable tool for getting quick feedback collected in one place while training is being developed."
"It's really nice that Articulate 360 keeps everything up to date and does automatic updates, which I don't have to schedule."
"If you want to make the job easier, go for Cornerstone Learning."
"We have received a return on investment for Cornerstone Learning, with a more coherent view in terms of the management of training, auditing of training, tracking of learning, and the way that learning is presented to people, resulting in a positive return on investment."
"Stability and scalability are good. They have four releases every year of which learning is a big portion of that. They're constantly refining and defining and they're embedding a lot of new technology into it all the time."
"If you are looking for a highly automated and highly customizable solution that is excellent in user experience, this is the solution to go for."
"Cornerstone Learning's most valuable features are the keyword search, filters, and add-to-favorites option."
"It is the best one in the market for learning."
"Now training can be recorded in real time and, as a result, our records are more up-to-date."
"One of the good things with Saba is that they have money and time management in one platform."
 

Cons

"There could be more tutorials available on the platform for new users."
"Articulate 360 could have a better video editor and make their audio editor a little more robust."
"Articulate 360 is slow to implement future enhancement requests. We would also like to see more flexibility in the layout of the courses."
"I would like more robust reporting or more flexibility and scalability around the reporting side."
"The automated ticketing system for technical support often has a response time that is quite long, which is something that should be improved."
"There is a need for quite a bit of improvement. The reporting side of things definitely needs a lot of improvement; at the moment, it gives you a data dump, and you have to open it up in Excel and filter out the bits that you don't want and need."
"Its dashboard and analytics must be improved. Currently, we get the data, but we don't get anything from the insightfulness perspective. Analytics is where it requires a lot of work. We definitely expect some good dashboard features, which are currently lacking in this solution. From a technical perspective, they need to open access to all HTML tags. It currently doesn't support many HTML tags, which makes it challenging to create HTML pages."
"However, there is more room for improvement in the area of user interface redesign."
"In general, some of the portal pages have an outdated look and feel."
"Even though the system has a number of features, design wise the user interface is a little bit complicated. It is hard for the user to navigate properly. Because the system has so many features, it has a lot of tabs and links. Sometimes, people get confused as to where to go and search."
"This product could have more features and ways to deliver training."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."
"Articulate 360 is a little bit expensive, but we get a decent value for money."
"I'm not aware of the costs. It must have been something for which we paid. Every single employee in the company had some kind of access to Cornerstone because that's how they got to their training."
"This is a cost-effective solution."
"Quality always comes at a cost. I would not rate it as expensive. It provides value for money."
"I was not involved in the financial negotiation for our contract with this company, but in the past, I have seen the fees run between $10 USD and $11 USD per user."
"The solution cost approximately $47,000 annually."
"The price of Cornerstone Learning depends on many factors, such as size and negotiations."
"I rate the price of Cornerstone Learning a four out of five. There are not any additional costs other than the standard licensing fees"
"The solution's pricing depends on the specific requirements."
