Docebo Learning Platform vs. Litmos

Docebo [Learning Suite] is a great tool for hosting content when you have a clear idea and path of how you want your users to engage. Essentially, the UI and experience is beautiful and the navigation for users really beats out many other learning platforms but you need to be very deliberate in designing the paths for employees to take. You cannot expect employees and users to intuitively figure out what they need to do within the system. This is a key drawback. What I love is content curation from external sites such as youtube, linkedin, and uploaded videos that can launch all within Docebo -that for us is key to track how much engagement were getting where we couldn't have that on our previous platform.

Litmos is greatly suited for delivering courses that have a timeline or where the content needs to be consumed in its entirety, and for tracking and validating the completion of that content by users. It is well suited for microlearning and quick and effective course creation and learner testing. Litmos is less suited for creating courses where pages are linked together or for quick reference content which might be better served by a knowledge base.

• The user interface is well designed and for the most part very intuitive.
• Administration is fairly straight forward - I've used other LMSs that require intense concentration and pages of written notes to remember how to create and deploy a course - this is not the case with Docebo.
• Docebo is an open system that has many integrations.

• Litmos is simple and straightforward for learners to use
• Litmos' look and feel are highly customizable through javascript and stylesheets
• Litmos' API is fairly easy to use and complete
• Litmos makes launching and deploying training in the field and the office easy and quick

Incentivized

• Issues with latency. Once training is complete, it takes a while for it to show up in personal records. This can lead to frustration sometimes when one training is a prerequisite for another.
• LMS admin cannot proxy into another user's account.
• Training videos have a size limit.

Incentivized

• I generally feel that any challenges I experience are due to the vast flexibility the platform has. My gut tells me that my minor issues are actually a result of certain functionality needing to be there to meet the needs of other customers, and it's not Litmos' fault that my specific workflow doesn't fit exactly into their functionality. It's a matter of me determining how I can update my workflow to fit the feature set.

Incentivized

For what we need in the very near future, Litmos does not offer us the required capability. Ideally, we are looking for an integrated LMS, coaching, mobile support and content creation platform. Litmos may have the LMS part covered but there are other platforms that do this better along with providing an integrated all-in-one service or at the very least support API integration with other vendors to meet our requirements.

It was somewhat easy to navigate, I still think that the UX could be better designed. I just thought that it was also hard to find course using the search feature. I still think its one of the better LMS I have seen, but I prefer Litmos over Docebo LMS

It's overall pretty straightforward to use — both for admins/creators and learners.

• Teams really give a great ability to decentralize management.
• Great content creation tools
• Integrated live sessions

A few wonky workflows persist, though:

• Reporting has some limitations (e.g., 30 day limit, ugh)
• Search is rough and we get reports that content can be difficult to find
• More granular admin/editing permissions would help

Not best support for technical problems.

The service is very slow often taking months to resolve issues. The CSM program is poor, with ill knowledgeable people not well trained in customer management with a lack of good follow through. This has been independently observed by several of our Super Admins as well as customers at their annual meeting. They say it has to do with growth, but this has been the case for years.

If I could give it a negative rating I would. Worst support from any program I have had. Everything is back and forth in the support ticket. The one time I tried to chat they could not support the question. Their support page is so full of sections and products I can never find anything I need, even with a customized home page. I was hopeful that once they left SAP support might improve but it has not. I don't even know who my account executive is. Nobody has ever reached out to me. I need someone to guide me through best practices for our company and there is nobody to do that.

It was a good overview of the platform, but of course it was more of a basic overview of how to use the platform. The team provided a good training, but I would of liked a better deep dive into some of the features.

Incentivized

Some of the best online training I've taken from any LMS platform. It was well put together and kept me engaged the entire time. It has a good amount of HR Compliance mixed with soft skills training that the team liked. Overall, it has a robust online suite of training that any company can use.

We have done two implementations. The first wasn't completed by me, but the second was. I had to do a lot of data migration across from the first system into the new instance. This was really time-consuming, and it would have been great to have had an option for someone else to have completed this for us. Learning about the tool has also been up to us, and whilst the content was good, it was also high level and broad, and then getting into the specifics of our setup was really just left to us to complete on our own and have a go. We got there, but probably could have been faster with some additional support from a consultant.

Docebo had a better account manager at the time who actively explained and answered all our questions even before we signed any contracts. The other system providers would only do the same once we've signed. Additionally, in terms of capabilities, it was clear that Docebo was able to hit all our use cases whereas the others would find it challenging/needlessly expensive to do so. Others would bloat the cost/double the cost for an internal-external setup. That, or they would not be able to data share across the internal-external setup. Additionally, Docebo was actively investing in AI/machine learning back in 2020, so we were able to see some parts of how it worked on their system, even before we became a paying customer.

Litmos has been more robust for us in terms of reporting as well as course organization. We also have the ability to use a subsite (another instance of Litmos) for groups outside of our main organization.

Pretty easy to scale this LMS and can be deployed companywide in all departments for us. The team's function allows you build separate teams that can easily be assigned specific courses, so it makes it much easier to deploy

• Our candidates were 30 percent more likely to get hired
• Our candidates can cover almost 100% percent more content as they can learn on demand. My candidates are switcher rather fresher. Scheduling live learning sessions during office time was inconvenient for them
• Our clients were angry why were we hiding these new candidates for so long🤣

Incentivized

• Reduced learning times across the business, therefore lowering the completion payment.
• Improved business wide compliance by over 60%.
• Gave us the ability (via our LMS) to quickly gather reports on key learning requirements.
• It provided the ability to react to any potential issue by quickly sourcing and building a course after identifying a safety issue.
