Considered Both Products	Intellum CH Cathy Herweyer Instructional Designer Chose Intellum SumTotal did not have the reporting features Intellum provides. Incentivized Helpful? James Baca Owner Chose Intellum Intellum is in a class of its own. With the good referrals, I got from colleagues in my industry, I was aware that certain processes would be made easier by this software, and we were right.

Ankit Hasija Training Head Chose Intellum Adobe Captivate is a very complex product and more expensive as well. It does offer more features but at this stage, the organization doesn't require any more features than what is offered. Incentivized Helpful?

Kerry Haupt HR Director Chose Intellum Intellum has a very flexible design for users which is a great aspect of this tool. This tool leverages the user by giving the capability to create content for different types of learning groups. I am happy with its services and also happy with the choice I have ever made. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Intellum Intellum does not measure up to Relias. Relias is much more user-friendly and offers course content relevant to, and meeting, state regulations. Intellum was cheaper than Relias; however, since Intellum has started charging for every little service, the cost is pretty … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Intellum I use Intellum as the company [e-learning platform] but I have [used] Moodle and Teachable in a personal way. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Intellum We used Lessonly internally, but we felt it was a far more complex system and beyond the scope of what we were looking for. The simplicity and ease-of-use made Intellum the right choice for us at the time. Incentivized Helpful? Rachel Batdorff Global Program Manager, Customer Education & Training Solutions Chose Intellum Modern user experience, simple admin experience, dedication to staying up-to-date with today's online learner Incentivized Helpful? Alexis Lamarre, M. Sc. Concepteur pédagogique Chose Intellum Customization, access to data and learner experience is really the key points that makes Intellum stand out of the competition. Also, the constant improvement related to the LMS makes it even better overtime. Moodle and Google Classroom were too basic in my opinion. Incentivized Helpful? Gregory Russell Director, Technical Enablement Chose Intellum Intellum provided the best user and admin experience of any LMS we reviewed. It was optimal for our centralized approach, and included the modern requirements like powerful search, carousel UX, and intuitive administration. Incentivized Helpful?

Intellum provides enhanced user analytics, reporting capabilities, and user friendly communication strategies. We selected Intellum over Lessonly mainly because of the commitment to service, ingenuity, … Incentivized Helpful?

Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Intellum Relias is so much better than Intellum, but Exceed was less expensive when we purchased it. I think they are closer in price now. Relias really focuses on content and meeting our regulations. Much easier to use. Incentivized Helpful? LM Lisa Miller HRIS Chose Intellum We definitely prefer Intellum over Saba. Our users prefer Intellum over Saba, but my primary reason for preferring Intellum is the customer service we receive. Incentivized Helpful?

It's a great tool to help companies … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose SilkRoad Learning Less good than Adobe, doesn't look as good, and less mobile/agile with fewer customizable features.

Verified User Anonymous Chose SilkRoad Learning SilkRoad Learning is much easier to customize and roll out globally.

Verified User Anonymous Chose SilkRoad Learning GreenLight out performed every other solution we evaluated; it provided the perfect blend of power and usability to meet our needs and to help us excel. Incentivized Helpful? Kevin Wright, CPLP Director of Organizational Learning Chose SilkRoad Learning I used NetLearning before they partnered with HealthcareSource. My experience with NetLearning was not favorable. The system was clunky, difficult to learn for new employees, and lacked many of the features and innovation offered by GreenLight.

User Testimonials
	Intellum	SilkRoad Learning
Likelihood to Recommend	Intellum leads the field in reporting; something I didn't even know I really needed/wanted until we purchased this LMS. While I realize that most Learning Management Systems are designed to support online, auto-assigned content for people to complete on a device, 80% (sometimes more) of our training is delivered in person (we are a quarry company, and our learners do much better with Instructor Led Training). Sometimes it is difficult to find a workaround in Intellum that allows us the flexibility and consistency we require for managing our in-person learning needs. Incentivized CH Cathy Herweyer Instructional Designer Read full review	GreenLight works well with tracking compliance training. During the selection process I would ask pointed questions about support. Our implementation went well (Dave M. did an excellent job) and the technical help is very good, however, it appears they are understaffed. Incentivized Charles Maxcy Learning Systems Coordinator Read full review
Pros	Intellum is a highly easy-to-use and user-friendly tool that has great functionality for all of our current cases. I have been using Intellum as a centralized form of learning management for all the employees. Intellum has been offering excellent customer service and all the questions are answered on a timely basis. Incentivized Kerry Haupt HR Director Read full review	GreenLight allows us to deliver training to employees based on the role they serve in the organization (nurses, physicians, clerical staff, etc.). GreenLight allows for customized reporting to meet the needs of various stakeholders. GreenLight allows us to deliver content to all employees for self-paced learning. Incentivized Kevin Wright, CPLP Director of Organizational Learning Read full review
Cons	Hard to keep up with all of the new features and updates that are shared weekly. Do not have a current solution for the ability to build live simulation experiences. Reports generated can sometimes be slowed down if there are a lot of requests in the Exceed que for completion. Incentivized Clay Coleman Director of Education Read full review	The words that are used in GreenLight are ridiculous. I know they've said they will update this but it has yet to be done. Words like 'intervention' and 'stem' leave me scratching my head. The learning curve is HUGE. They have made strides in this area with an improved support site, but when you're first learning it, it feels like you're trying to climb Mt. Everest. This does speak to all the LMS offers, but I think some things take too many steps to accomplish. Training events are not instructor friendly. You can set them up and easily make them available for users to find, but something as small as the instructor being able to click a button and send an email to everyone that signed up should be in there. There's no function for contact. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Most of our needs are met with this platform currently and the customer service has been excellent. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The main reason we will renew is because, after this lengthy and expensive process, we have too much invested to change again in the near future. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	The system has changed since I started using it and it has become more intuitive. As a user and admin, I find that it is fairly easy to navigate. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	I have a better understanding of the system and so it is easier for me to use. The student side is very easy and simple for anyone to use. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Reliability and Availability	No answers on this topic	There have been many times when the site was unavailable for a short time. Also, glitches and unexplained ed activity such as sending training notifications out to terminated employees. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Performance	No answers on this topic	It works well most of the time. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Support Rating	The customer support team is always very helpful and responsive, as is our CSM who goes above and beyond to help us with issues and questions that we have Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	The questions regarding how to implement in the system are answered quickly and efficiently. If there is an issue with the technical side or integrations it takes forever to get results and after much escalating. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Online Training	No answers on this topic	some are thorough and others are not. I like that they are available for review. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Implementation Rating	Very satisfied with the support we received from our CSM and team Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Intellum is in a class of its own. With the good referrals, I got from colleagues in my industry, I was aware that certain processes would be made easier by this software, and we were right. I have seen the positives that have come from this software. It easily takes the cake over its competitors! Incentivized James Baca Owner Read full review	In my opinion, no comparison. GreenLight is a much smoother platform, providing a more stable user experience, with less bugs, less software conflicts, and better support. I have developed and published dozens of eCourses on this platform, and it really shines. In addition, the suite of integrated products from SilkRoad Technologies (Red Carpet, Open Hire, and WingSpan) really impress when combined with the strength of GreenLight. Incentivized Stephen Tsorvas Manager, Training & Development Read full review
Scalability	No answers on this topic	The system went down/offline for 5 or 6 days in January. This is the month we have 3400 employees taking annual required training. It had several glitches afterwards that took months to correct. Incentivized Donna Ingram LMS Administrator Read full review
Return on Investment	Our Onboarding Team LOVES showing new clients Intellum. It has allowed for the initial setup and day-to-day use training of our software to be handled by the LMS and the team members can really focus on the tough questions and best practices. We have seen over 110% year-over-year growth of users on our learning center platform. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	seems to have made sure that all out short term contract staff are more on the same level and can access various lists, documents they need from training in a way that fees up admin time. 100% of people interacted with it in someway, in the end no one had trouble understanding how it worked seemed to help with our duel learning delivery goals but too soon to tell just yet Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
