You will be happy with the product, product support and service level provided.
Ease of use, and nice look and feel to the end users – both very valuable to us Better customization of reporting inside of Grovo instead of creating outside of the platform at an additional cost. Our organization has been using Grovo for 2 months. Reporting had a few bugs – nothing major. No,…

Integrated employee data has improved HR coordination but reporting and interface still need work
The GUI of SAP SuccessFactors Learning is still not very good. The drop-downs are too limited. One thing I want to have is an advisory banner with highlighted font that employees can visibly see during login, but support indicated this cannot be done. I have already raised this request to the support team, and they mentioned that the same request has come from other companies.

"Some valuable features include assigning various courses to employees based on their groups and roles, as well as providing specialized training for new hires."
"The most valuable features of the solution were the deployment and onboarding."

"Proven track record as the Vendor and SI spend hundreds of hours developing, testing, and researching the system (this results in fewer bugs, threats, and a more functional system)."
"The interface is really friendly, and the training embedded in it is very easy to use, explore, and search. The catalog is pretty strong."
"It is a very stable tool. It is the most stable security application."
 

Cons

"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."
"Better customization of reporting inside of Grovo instead of creating outside of the platform at an additional cost."
"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."
"Grouping and assigning trainings. Also, would like another admin layer built into the product."
"I am talking about SAP in general, so there are multiple screens that you have to go through, and it takes some time to get used to it."
"It's very difficult to do simple activities using the tool, like getting a report."
"The flexibility and user-friendliness of the user's front end can be improved."
"The initial installation could be a bit easier."
"SAP SuccessFactors Learning doesn't have a punch-in and punch-out facility."
"The price of SAP SuccessFactors Learning could be better, it is expensive. There is an annual subscription. It's overpriced for small enterprises."
"One area I would like to improve in SAP SuccessFactors Learning is the overall user experience and product feedback loop."
"The only drawback of the tool is that it is dependent on its database."

"The licensing cost for SAP SuccessFactors Learning is rather expensive, but it's not the only SAP tool my company uses in the suite, so it's very hard to compare prices."
