Basic Learning & Development Platform
What do you like best?
I liked that Grovo was easy to use from both an administrative and a learner standpoint. It's definitely a simple and intuitive platform and the organization of the system makes locating content within the platform easy. It was simple to assign content and add due dates. I also liked the ability to add essentially "cover pages" for the videos so it helped to brand the videos and lessons that we created. It also allowed us to create a nice library of content for our users and it was easy to share items with fellow colleagues.
What do you dislike?
I disliked how long it takes to upload videos to the system. The industry that I work in is very fast-paced so to have to wait on a video upload for as long as it took was very disappointing. I also found that sometimes I would wait for awhile for a video to upload and then an error might have occurred so I would have to go through the process all over again. It also wasn't as scalable for our organization and our needs to create learning universities for each of our business areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would say that Grovo is best for a smaller organization that needs to upload simple, short videos as content to share with their employees for training. I think that if you are a larger organization that needs to have multiple administrators and have a variety of content that you need to upload, then it might not be best for you.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We were solving the need for a learning and development platform for training the employees in our organization. We needed a system where we could upload videos and create content that we could then share throughout our organization. We also needed to track training for compliance purposes so it helped solve that issue as well.
