## Reviews

### "Easy to use LMS with great features" — 5.0/5

> **Jessica** | *14 May 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great features and brilliant customer support. Mobile version was helpful to do training on the go. User friendly and easy to navigate for learners.
> 
> **Cons**: More features required to set clear rules for course completion. Adding the option to put in an organisational training calendar would have been helpful.
> 
> Great experience overall. Very user friendly LMS with good features. Could add more features to evaluate training effectiveness.

### "Absorb LMS Review" — 4.0/5

> **Devapriya** | *29 June 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I found Absorb LMS very user-friendly, particularly when it comes to pulling reports and managing users. The reporting features are straightforward and efficient, making it easy to access the data I need. Adding and managing users is also simple and streamlined. Additionally, the customisable dashboard is a great feature, allowing me to tailor the interface to suit our organisation’s needs.
> 
> **Cons**: One of the main challenges is pulling historical data across both active and inactive users for all courses. It can be time-consuming to comb through the plethara of data it generates to create a clean report.

-----

### "Highly Recommend Absorb" — 5.0/5

> **Hannah** | *5 March 2025* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's user-friendly, engaging, and makes training easily accessible with great tracking and reporting features.
> 
> **Cons**: Content creation can be time-consuming, and some customization options could be more flexible.
> 
> A reliable and efficient platform that simplifies training, but there’s room for improvement in customization and content management.

### "Started with Challenges, Now a Great Experience Backed by Great Client Support" — 5.0/5

> **Elaine** | *22 July 2026* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the clean interface and navigation of Absorb LMS. It makes it easy for our technicians, many of whom aren't tech savvy, to find their training and enrol in courses. Over the years, the platform has continued to improve with regular updates and new features. The reporting capabilities are one of its biggest strengths, providing valuable data that supports our internal reporting processes and helps us communicate training outcomes and requirements across our dealer network.
> 
> **Cons**: I'd like to see more flexibility within the platform, particularly around settings, filters, and dashboard customisation. Some reporting widgets can't be broken down into more detailed information, and there are times when the backend logic is a bit confusing. While workarounds usually exist, greater flexibility would make reporting and administration more efficient.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Absorb LMS has been very positive. When we first implemented the platform, we encountered several challenges and limitations where the system didn't always work the way we needed it to. However, our Client Manager worked closely with us every step of the way, helping us find practical workarounds, providing solutions, and keeping us informed about new features and updates that addressed many of our concerns. He also helped us gain access to the reporting capabilities we needed, which has made a significant difference to how we manage and communicate training outcomes. As the platform has continued to evolve, many of our initial challenges have been resolved, and we're now extremely happy with Absorb LMS. The few improvements I'd still like to see, such as more flexibility with filters and dashboard customization, would simply enhance an already strong platform rather than address major issues. The only other consideration is cost. Management has noted that the platform is on the more expensive side and there are several additional fees for features and services that can increase the overall cost. While they're comfortable with the pricing at present, there is some concern about potential price increases in the future and how that may affect long-term affordability.

### "Absorb Review - 2026" — 5.0/5

> **Yoshimi** | *17 June 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great Support, constant improvements on software. E.G., automatic AI and AI translation in wide range of languages.
> 
> **Cons**: Some areas were not very flexible enough for us. Such us downloading a file. We had to download course by course, instead of bulk downloading.  However, it was not a major concern.
> 
> Great support. Little bit of learning curve to understand the system, however, we had lots of support when we needed help.
