## Reviews

### "So easy to use\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *4 April 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: No stress, super easy to use, no issues at all with it. I love how it's set up too. It's really a great site. It has absolutely no stress with it. It loads quickly. It is easy to use, and self explanatory. I really think this is my favorite learning website I have ever used. All you have to do is go to your tasks and everything is there that you have completed and what you need to complete.
> 
> **Cons**: I actually like everything about this software.

### "Simple & Straight to the point software; gets the job done" — 5.0/5

> **Tyler** | *28 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to learn and start launching. I've used it for many assessments, programs and reports used within our organization and it's performed as expected.
> 
> **Cons**: The interactive capabilities of SRL are a bit limited. If there are features that support flash - based platofrming and launching, I am unaware. I don't see SRL winning anyone over with it's attractiveness, rather how straightforward it's design is. That being said, it's not so much an intuitive product as it is a learned one. The issue with that is that it can easily be underutilized and appear undervalued, unless one is pointed to the benefits and capabilities of SRL.

### "Decent for a time, but not as functional as most" — 3.0/5

> **Relton** | *26 November 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Silkroad has a decent onboarding.  The software is intuitive and somewhat easy to use.  It served as a capable LMS for our organization for several years.
> 
> **Cons**: Silkroad Learning lacks a great deal of the features that are standard with other learning management systems.
> 
> We used Silkroad Learning as our primary LMS for about 6 years.  It was our first LMS, and serves as a backup system now as we have moved fully to Cornerstone LMS.

### "Decent LMS for the job" — 3.0/5

> **Patty** | *5 March 2020* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I've always enjoyed how easy Silkroad is to use even though it doesn't quite fit the bill for all of our needs.
> 
> **Cons**: The interface is a bit antiquated and features are quite short for everything that we need to do and our expanding influence.
> 
> Starting with SilkRoad Learning was a good move, but we've since grown before this learning management system and the features that it is able to provide.

-----

### "Simple LMS for simple needs" — 3.0/5

> **Linus** | *15 January 2020* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SilkRoad Learning offers very rudimentary options for basic learning management.  The system is easy to learn as an admin and fairly easy to train with users.
> 
> **Cons**: As a full featured learning management system, SilkRoad Learning falls short of its competitors.  It doesn't have many of the capabilities that we needed as we grow.
> 
> SilkRoad Learning still helps us with components of our training efforts.
