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

"Cornerstone is a truly unified talent management solution."
"Cornerstone has a pretty robust suite."
"From a functional perspective, it is perfect because it has a strong structure and design."
"There are new releases every three months that keep up with industry standards and meet the needs of the customer."
"The most valuable features are the Playlists, Learning Assignment Tool, Earner Experience Platform, Machine Learning, and Reporting 2.0."
"The analytics are very easy to use - it produces the data quickly and easily, and can be downloaded and scheduled."
"It is the best one in the market for learning."
"It is a complete suite of solutions and features. Compared to other solutions which are more niche solutions, which may be as good as Cornerstone or even better in certain parts of it, like discerning user experience. You will not find another solution that has the same completeness of features in all different areas of learning."
"I appreciate the flexibility that the new Instructor Led Training offers, and visual graphics for tracking users, etc."
"Distributing quiz content alongside video and ability to upload documents are the most valuable features."
"Customer Service: AMAZING. AMAZING. AMAZING. It's a huge reason why we decided to go with Grovo."
"Ease of use, and nice look and feel to the end users – both very valuable to us."
"Valuable features are customizable learning tracks, and single sign on."
 

Cons

"The support from Cornerstone Learning can be better but they were okay. The quality of the first-level support could do better."
"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."
"This solution needs to be less simplified."
"They can make it more simple in terms of UI. The UI is complex in regards to the navigation and functionality."
"The existing test functionality is really old-fashioned, basic, and limited."
"The mobile app needs improving."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvement in the dashboards and reporting."
"Its integration with Microsoft Teams for virtual sessions could be better"
"Grouping and assigning trainings. Also, would like another admin layer built into the product."
"Bulk video upload is a must."
"I look forward to the capability of putting materials in folders by category...as currently the long list of modules is daunting."
"Better customization of reporting inside of Grovo instead of creating outside of the platform at an additional cost."
"I think a lot of the things agreed on or promised in the initial sales discussion are proving to be more difficult or do not work the way we understood them to now that we are in set up mode."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the price of Cornerstone Learning a four out of five. There are not any additional costs other than the standard licensing fees"
"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."
"This solution offers competitive pricing."
"The solution's pricing depends on the specific requirements."
"It is a premium product, and it is on par with its competitors. It isn't out of scale with what the market is demanding. We're always looking at ways of trimming costs, but we haven't had a lot of flexibility with pricing and/or options with Cornerstone. So, its price is decent. There are ad hoc engineering costs when we are required to use a Cornerstone resource. Additionally, when we choose to integrate with third-party platforms, there is a setup and maintenance fee for these data integrations. They need to be built into our ongoing budget as we expand our offerings."
"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."
"I would rate the price at four on a scale from one to five because it's a very expensive product."
"Quality always comes at a cost. I would not rate it as expensive. It provides value for money."
