Considered Both Products	Learndot Verified User Anonymous Chose Learndot Very well designed, clear reward points, encourages the user to use more frequently, easy to use, no technical glitches. Incentivized Helpful?

Michaelle LaPlante Sales Chose Seismic Learning Not even comparable. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Seismic Learning Skyprep was very limited in how you could add and edit lesson modules.

It was very hard to use and didn't offer a lot of features to make training less monotonous … Incentivized Helpful?

Jeanette Carroll VP, Operations & Marketing Chose Seismic Learning I haven't really used or evaluated any other product like Lessonly.

Verified User Anonymous Chose Seismic Learning I cannot answer this question as I have not used any other programs. I tested a few as demos while searching for Lessonly and it made my choice very easy. The others were clunky and outdated. Lessonly is sleek and user friendly. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Seismic Learning I have used one other similar software in the past, and Lessonly is much more user-friendly. The previous software was extremely clunky, and even after going through training on it, I never fully utilized it because of how overly complicated it was. Incentivized Helpful? CK Cait Kaider Events Production Specialist Chose Seismic Learning Not Applicable. I had to choose a platform in order to move forward. I have not used any products like Lessonly.

User Testimonials
	Learndot	Seismic Learning
Likelihood to Recommend	Love that Learndot has Stripe integration, love the fact that all of our registration now happens on a single website instead of having courses listed on one site and then having to go to Eventbrite for the actual registration. Love that it integrates with SFDC and WebEx. Brad Hamilton Director, Technical Training & Education Read full review	Lessonly can be used anywhere a digital learning system works. We use a mix of hands-on training and curriculum. For training our photographers, they go through the lessons with a camera on the desk to test with and tangibly learn what they are reading. Same with our production teams, we have physical representations of the camera cards and order forms that they will be dealing with on a daily basis to help solidify the training they are receiving from Lessonly. It frees up our full-time staff to get prepared for the new season. Once the new hires are done with their assigned lessons, they are ready to start shadowing staff. All of the training and shadowing is done in one day and they are ready to hit the ground running on day two! Lessonly has greatly increased our productivity.

Pros	Structured curriculum for the required levels No glitch in random questions Perfect evaluation Encouraging reward points Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Open to feedback and ideas and constantly innovating and iterating on their product to serve new needs that arise Making me feel like more than just a customer: They aren't transactional and focus on building the relationship and making me feel heard. Extremely easy to use product so building content takes little time, and I can leverage other subject matter experts to build content as well. Incentivized KC Karie Champlin-Albarran Learning and Development Lead Read full review
Cons	Limited reporting Tougher integration with SFDC than expected Brad Hamilton Director, Technical Training & Education Read full review	When editing a reveal or flip card, the image and text are backwards. The text is on the top and the image is on the bottom when you are editing. But when you publish the lesson, they switch and the photo will be on the top and the text will be on the bottom. Their customer service agents are incredibly friendly and helpful, it will just often be a while before someone is able to respond and assist you. Incentivized Rachel Blankenship Customer Experience Representative Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	Worried about its acquisition by Seismic and hope that they don't change the product or the terms drastically. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Extremely easy to use. I was up and running with my team almost instantly. Working at a small company, we didn't have a lot of dev/engineering resources. Having a tool like Lessonly helped me instantly export information to my team without any additional delay from internal departments Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	This is one of the main reasons I keep going back to Lessonly. The customer service is some of the best I've ever experienced. From the sales process to the work with your customer success rep, Lessonly by far beats out the competitors in this area.

Alternatives Considered	Very well designed, clear reward points, encourages the user to use more frequently, easy to use, no technical glitches. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	MindTickle was hated by our users - company switched to Lessonly before I arrived. Allego and Docebo both seem to have fundamentally different uses - mostly for hive-mind knowledge collection among salespeople, which may be helpful, but can't be scaled to the entire organization, and not suited to top-down training requirements. We may eventually purchase to supplement Lessonly, not replace it Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Better customer service Fully contained customer facing experience Brad Hamilton Director, Technical Training & Education Read full review	Lessonly has allowed for easier dissemination of information which has helped with employee engagement among our remote employees. Finding creative ways to use Lessonly has allowed us to keep everyone aligned on our cultural values. Using Lessonly within a live training event allows for higher learner engagement.
