GeoLearning Wins
LMS Customer Satisfaction Rankings

 

GeoLearning has been ranked among the industry's leading companies in a recent eLearning customer satisfaction study published in U.S. News & World Report. The results of Brandon Hall's Corporate eLearning Customer Satisfaction Rankings can be found online at http://www.usnews.com/usnews/biztech/elearning/rankings/ranklms/ranklms.htm

GeoLearning ranked second out of 24 learning management system companies with a composite customer satisfaction score of 9.3 out of 10.

LMS vendors were rated in six categories: overall product, level of service pre-sales to contract, level of service installation to implementation, level of service post-implementation, ability to meet future needs and quality of the LMS solution.

"We are extremely proud of the ranking," said Frank Russell, president and CEO of GeoLearning. "Customer satisfaction is a core piece of the overall eLearning solution we provide to clients, and it's extremely satisfying to have our efforts validated in an independent study of this magnitude."

U.S. News teamed with www.brandon-hall.com, a leading eLearning research firm, to collect data for the customer satisfaction rankings. In the spring and summer of 2001, brandon-hall.com surveyed customers who had recently used eLearning products in the following categories: learning management systems, authoring tools, live eLearning systems and IT course content. The customers reported their satisfaction with aspects of a specific product on a scale from one to ten. Customer responses were averaged to create the scores that appear in the customer satisfaction rankings. The Excellence in eLearning Awards are presented by brandon-hall.com and Online Learning Magazine. Now in its fifth year, the awards program showcases exceptional work in the eLearning industry by providing feedback and benchmarking to entrants in an overall effort to help advance the eLearning industry.

ABB Automation, SITEL Corporation and VWR International recently signed multi-year contract extensions to continue using the GeoLearning LMS to deliver eLearning in their respective organizations.
