## Reviews

### "Quick response time ; Could be better product" — 3.0/5

> **Kristi** | *31 October 2017* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Whenever I have questions, they are quick to get back with me.  User friendly. Does the basics of an LMS.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting isn't the greatest.  Hard to administer the way we would like it to. It seems as though time goes on, we are outgrowing this LMS.
> 
> From everything I've read and learned, it doesn't seem like there's a perfect LMS out there.  Although, I feel like this one if far from perfect - it gets up by.  We're able to push out courses/content for learners in a timely manner.

### "Accord LMS: Flexible, Valuable and Reliable." — 5.0/5

> **Dale** | *17 June 2016* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Our client company licensed the Accord LMS several years ago to train temporary employees.  The courses we implemented guide the employees to understand the business model, consider specific aspects of their new role, and train them to interact with the business system.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Some of the content in the courses is confidential, and the Accord implementation helps to limit access to that content by limiting enrollment based on security roles. &#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Courses are designed using the SCORM standard, which allows course development to be done independent of the LMS.  The courses have loaded and interacted with Accord very well, correctly reporting quiz scores and completion status. &#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Accord has been a very stabile product, requiring very little administrative attention.  Our version of the product has a limit on the number of active learners, so we have had to monitor our usage and either limit the number of learners or adjust the license to fit our needs.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;We have directed several special requests to the sales department with regard to licensing, and each time they have accommodated our needs.  We have found them a good partner to work with.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;We have kept the software on a maintenance contract throughout, and have generally found this to be a good value.  While service requests have been minimal, there have been some key times during software upgrades where we have placed service requests.  These were answered quickly and our issues were resolved.  The cost of the maintenance contract has increased sharply, and this has caused us some concern.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;In summary, we have found the Accord LMS system to be flexible, valuable and reliable.
> 
> **Cons**: We were recently surprised by a significant increase in the maintenance contract cost.

### "Accord LMS - Minor league player trying to play in the majors." — 3.0/5

> **Riyaz** | *15 October 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: An excellent account management team who responds to all queries and concerns as needed. The product works reasonably well, especially if you don't need any fancy design changes.
> 
> **Cons**: Customization requires professional services or knowledge of DNN. Not much documentation or assistance from the company. User management, reporting, and course management work until you want in-depth functionality that most other systems have - out of the box.
> 
> We inherited Accord LMS when we merged with our sister company. Even though we asked, we never received the onboarding experience you would normally get when implementing a new system. Accord LMS worked for our employees and customers however, the experience did not keep up with end-user expectations.

### "Accord LMS - Administrator review" — 4.0/5

> **Kudzai** | *27 August 2021* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is packed with features and functionality. It supports a lot of files formats for both documents and video. Integration with GoToMeeting, GoToTraining, and GoToWebinar is a worthy addition. It would be nice to have Zooma as an option. Integration is seamless depending on the configuration you choose. Support is 24/7 but responds in a timely manner. The quiz builder caters to more question types than the usual offerings.
> 
> **Cons**: The UI looks antiquated for 2021. It needs a major overhaul. The support documentation needs to be updated as well. Some of the features have been upgraded or changed but the documentation is lagging behind. As a user, organizing files in a playlist style with the next video or document ready to play is useful yet it is missing. A pop-up window opens when using a desktop and it is a bit annoying. The landing page needs improvement with regard to styling.
> 
> In-house training has significantly improved as well as for our external clients. Overall performance is good. Functionality is almost perfect. UI needs to be updated.

### "Wonderfully Flexible LMS" — 5.0/5

> **Ernesto** | *5 October 2016* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> The Accord LMS system has been a very useful tool in creating a structured learning environment that our users can easily follow. I recommend it highly to anyone who wishes to have their own online school.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;As with any product, there are some preliminary concepts to learn, and once learnt, it became an easy to use and very flexible product. The account manager assigned to us provided excellent training and has always answered any questions we had. Their Tech Support also responded with answers quickly. This LMS is suited to our needs because we do not need the large amount of licenses some other vendors require as a minimum to get started. It is a very cost effective LMS.
