Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
Skillsoft Percipio has more contents than the other platforms. The courses are strong and the variety of topics makes the job easier for companies to teach new skills. As a LMS is not strong, but I don't think that's their main goal.

It all depends on your use case, budget, technology lift, quality, etc. My users need to be satisfied #1, or else we go with another provider. #2 the cost needs to be in line. #3 the user onboard needs to be easy, etc. Skillsoft Percipio works for us, hits all the marks.
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
We have looked at other vendors and none provide the well-known books at a reasonable cost to the institution.
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
Skillsoft offers one of the more comprehensive learning platforms among its competitors. While the platform does appear dated at times with regard to the user interface, it does a really good job of offering a wide assortment of learning tools and features for interested …
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
Both are great products, and very different, but both are designed around employee training and give ways to track completion of certain training content. Skillport is much more suited for general training though since it's a platform that can host a variety of training …
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
I haven't used any other online training system except for Skillport, and I wasn't the person who selected it. However, our organization usually uses pretty decent technology when it comes to training, and I trust that they felt this was the best choice for our organization …
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
The products we used are not listed. Element K had an e-learning module. It was difficult to use and was not cost effective. It did not have the breadth of topics to choose from and the courses were limited to the instructor lead titles.
Chose Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)
We have used no other products similar to Books 24x7. I am certain that HR probably tested or reviewed several options before settling on this product, but I have no information related to why they decided on Books 24x7.

Books 24x7 is a useful tool for growth, knowledge sharing, and overall intellectual health within the company. Our company has been very forward thinking in offering this to every employee. As a result, people have been able to grow in areas they may not have previously explored because of the free access to resources they may not have bothered with before they had free access to them.

Usability

Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport) is easy to understand. Students didn't need much of an effort to understand how to use it, where to find the content, how to pass each course. It was also great that Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport) has this direct link to LinkedIn so the user can post their acquired skills on their professional history.
