We have used the Learning module for a few years and added in the performance and recruiting modules. My focus is on the Learning and Core modules.

Cornerstone LMS not great for complicated builds

Reviewed on 2019/11/30

My experience is both good and bad. Good in that I have gotten used to the way the product works and can maneuver well. Bad in that its tedious work and there are areas where streamlining is needed.

Great product, and very easy to use!

So far, my overall experience with Cornerstone has been great. From my side focusing on learning, we've really be working on getting over the hurdle of getting learners to take trainings that aren't required of them. This tool (and playlists + learner home) have really helped us accomplish this.

The customer service and implementation team was very helpful and professional throughout our journey.

Quality product, poor support, costly price tag

We use Cornerstone LMS to manage our global employee training. It supports SCORM tutorials, videos, and materials, as well as robust reporting.

Cornerstone Ondemand LMS

Reviewed on 2016/11/17

We have found that for our organization, one which has never had an LMS, the Cornerstone Ondemand LMS has been accepted and is in the process of being integrated in to our culture. We are only 35 days after launch and have already had 1/6th of our organization access elearning courses. Employees have adapted well to accessing the system, requesting elearning courses, and registering for instructor led events. We couldn't be happier!

Not impressed

I have not been happy overall. I expected a lot more being from Idexx but unfortunately, overall, it’s been a huge disappointment. Many hidden cost after initial consultation

Great LMS - Improvements Needed with UI

Clunky from the instructor view

Reviewed on 2020/02/06

We need a system that is easy for customers to access along with instructors and administrators. Maybe its the way we have it implemented, but analytics from attendees and engagement is non exisitent

Creation and management of training courses.

Pros and Cons

Reviewed on 2015/11/16

Learning implementation was difficult, because of all the configurability and our lack of understanding of the limitations. Before implementation, it would be extremely important to have a clear understanding and plan on how to use the 'groups' functionality. CSOD does make an effort to create good relationships with their clients. They continually make updates based on customer feedback. Their customer service can be intermittent, but when you have a good contact with CSOD things tend to be very successful. I would recommend working closely with another CSOD client in your industry prior to go live. Healthcare is very different than corporate (in learning) and we've had to learn a lot about what works and what doesn't. Overall, I would recommend the CSOD LMS, but don't assume everything will be perfect.

Pros:
' Listens to the customer and makes changes to the system
' Course upload is simple
' Help menu can be a useful tool
' Editable welcome and custom pages
' Whole TMS package in one system

Cons:
' User interface is still confusing to some end users
' User transcript report (because of custom healthcare education types) isn't clean
' Managers with 100+ subordinates have difficulty reporting on mandatory training
' External login is confusing for users that don't use it very often
' Nothing can be deleted in CSOD
' Groups isn't real time
' Custom reports isn't real time
' Evaluations don't appear as part of learning, they are 'tasks'
' The process for assigning mandatory training can be cumbersome
' Device registration is a requirement for mobile
' CSOD online training modules are long

Great LMS system!

We using only learning cloud. Functionality which exist now covering most of our scenarios.
It cover also specific factory and pharma requirements.

We still have a lot of requirements for future enhancements. We believe CSOD
can do better in reporting and need to redesign some older modules (like Exams
and Evaluations). But in general we are satisfy with CSoD functionalities

PROS
Cornerstone provide great customer support and client approach. They have very professional product management team.
Cornerstone functionality covering most of the requirements from different industries for both white and blue collars. They have good possibility to configure solution and they keep delivering new enhancements every Release (quarterly)

CONS
As Cornerstone become bigger it is difficult to deliver enhancements with the same speed.Cornerstone need to increase number of developers to keep same level of enhancements quality and speed

Stellar End User & Admin Experience

Reviewed on 2015/11/05

I've been using the Learning Cloud within Cornerstone for over 3 years and can't speak any higher of an LMS from the standpoint of both our admin and user experience. The end users find it intuitive and easy to use which is critical in this fast paced industry. The best part is the dedication Cornerstone has to improving limitations that might exist through quarterly enhancements which reinvigorate pieces of the cloud and alleviate client woes at the potential pain points. As a client, I feel like I am able to help drive the product so it can be better utilized and fit our needs. The learning cloud, in collaboration with the social learning tool Cornerstone offers, provides a flexible framework for learning and development initiatives.

The course selection with the other vendors is rich and varied.

Great Solution

Reviewed on 2015/11/12

I have been working with the Cornerstone solution for almost 2 years now and have been "officially" in my role as an administrator for 5 months. Support from CSOD has been great when needed and the Client Success Center is a very valuable resource. Updates and patches to the system are often and on schedule and communication is well done to ensure we all know what is coming in each update/patch. CSOD has been receptive to suggestions made by us as well as others via the Client Success Center. CSOD really seems to be a company that wants to listen to their customers to help enhance the product to meet their needs better.

System Good For End Users - Admins, Not So Much

Reviewed on 2015/12/08

We've had the learning module in place for two years, and generally it performs well.

Pros
Securities are very easy to set up and manage.
Interface is completely configurable (which may be a con for some since it isn't exactly plug and play)
Clean, easy to navigate interface that our end users report they appreciate

Cons
If you assign a curriculum to a user, and want to remove/unassign that curriculum later, the courses in that curriculum will remain assigned to the user.
Search results do not remember queries, causing you to re-enter the search parameters multiple times if you select an item and the click back to search.
You cannot preview published online courses as an administrator, you can only "request" the courses to your transcript and launch the course as an end-user.
If you want to update a published course, you can only update the existing course (re-version it) if the structure of the course did not change (new pages, tests, etc.). If the structure of the course did change at all, you have to republish new course and inactivate that which it is replacing.

Good, but not great, replacement for SABA

Top notch LMS / TMS

Reviewed on 2015/11/09

I've been a Cornerstone admin for 5 years and find the Learning and Performance Clouds to be very easy to use. Enhancements are made via Quarterly Releases, and having the 'sandbox' portal to work in is terrific for test driving new features and creating documentation prior to rollout. Uploading online courses, videos, or documents is a breeze! Automating our Performance Review process has alleviated the need for managers to complete cumbersome Excel files. Robust email functionality let's you customize by learning object or proxy if needed. I highly recommend Cornerstone!

Best in Class - User Friendly w/ Robust Admin Features

Reviewed on 2015/11/15

I have implemented/administered/used numerous LMS in the past. Cornerstone is head and shoulders above the rest. Many of the others require you to go back and "customize" (i.e. pay more money to the vendor) just to get the system to a usable state for your end users. Cornerstone gives admin 99% of the control you need to customize it in its entirety, eliminating that need. Great customer service. Great setup to connect clients to share best practices. Overall a great system to bring on board. Would strongly recommend.

The learning platform is great!

Reviewed on 2015/11/06

I have been using Cornerstone for 6 years and have found they have evolved into a fantastic learning platform. Using the product is user friendly and easy to understand. If you need help they have small video tutorials and the help area is also user friendly. Working in supporting the platform there are some things that are old or stagnent that runs alittle clunky and should be adjusted to their current state. I am certain things will get updated since there are quarterly roll-outs for making updates.

Positive experience using Cornerstone LMS

Reviewed on 2015/12/28

Pros:
-Very fast customer service - whenever you have a question someone is only a phone call away
-Ample opportunities to learning how to further use the software - weekly webinars, phone calls, etc.
-Overall a very easy to use software
-Implementation from old LMS was seamless

Cons:
-At this time I do not know of a way for Cornerstone to email reports and dashboards to managers or to embed a report or dashboard into an individual's home screen.

Intuitive System - Great Results

Cornerstone's platform is very intuitive, with much functionality. Regular updates to the platform allow for even more robust features on a quarterly basis. I would recommend the system to those looking to enhance their Corporate Learning capabilities
