Learning Lab

New entrant in the LMS world focussing on UX and customization rather than backend

Opmerkingen: Overall very good experience

Pluspunten:

Attractive pricing model for a solution which can be tailored. Excellent user and admin experience. Very willing and flexible team to work with. Ambitious roadmap. Nicer design compared with a lot of solutions on the market. good positioning sitting between off the shelf (take it or leave it) solutions and extremely expensive fully customizable platforms.

Minpunten:

Still catching up on some functionalities compared with more established actors on the market

Partners, Not Suppliers

Pluspunten:

As much as we like the platform itself for all of its innovative features, the aspect that has most impressed us is the customer service that The Learning Lab has given thus far. Granted, we are only just embarking on our project and as such can't comment on more than a few months' of engagement. Nonetheless, it is clear The Learning Lab are already more than simply LMS suppliers. Rather, they are our partners and will be plugged into our operation long term. In terms of the product itself, we really like the slideshow format of each lesson, with the ability to create really engaging multimedia for our learners.

Minpunten:

Ideally we would be able to upload our videos directly to the platform (this is possible though I understand better to use Vimeo when using large video files) and automatically generate subtitles in multiple languages. There are easy workarounds for these issues, though.

An LMS that is very friendly to users, trainers and admin staff alike

Opmerkingen: We want to enhance our trainees' learning experience by offering the possibility of blended learning on some of our courses. The LMS Lab is offering us a simple, user-friendly way to experiment with blended courses. We are now testing content, formats, quizzes and certification. And so far everyone is happy be they trainees, trainers or course producer (me !)

Pluspunten:

Easily usable both from an end-user (trainee) and admin/trainer perspective; beautiful and streamlined design, easily "brandable"; the fact that we feel we have some leverage on the additional functionalities and features that can be developed is a plus. The excellent and personable relations we have with Penceo marketing, creative and support team.

Minpunten:

We are still in the process of discovering how to best use the platform. There are a few functionalities that are missing - such as a course assessment form or the possibility to create a discussion forum for the trainees.

My experience with theLearning LAB

Opmerkingen: Learning Lab is customer-oriented and user-friendly. I have only good experience with this platform; it can be adapted to customer needs as well as look & feel. Perfect for different industries!

Pluspunten:

This product is easy to use and very user-friendly. I especially like the possibility to brand the e-learning platform with your own branding & design it as you wish. The company is very open to some updates or new features; thus, it's customer-centric which is a high advantage. Its big asset is slide builder, the authoring tool. Besides, I appreciate manual assessment possibility as it opens new door to exciting experiences in terms of e-learning.

Minpunten:

Tests & statistics are already on a good level but might be improved. Having said that, the platform is constantly developed so improving these two aspects is in progress.

Best Creative tool

Opmerkingen: Easy to use, great support from the team, regular innovative features realise. The feeling of working with a create system like web flow so I can create, build and manage my courses and communities without limitation. Very much the most modern and advance system of the market

Pluspunten:

The Authoring tool and the branding capacity as well as the collaborative options. Very innovative solution.

Minpunten:

Nothing to comment at this level the tool is really complete.
