We were able to get our online courses created quickly. It's easy to re-enter courses and edit them if needed. We were also able to integrate NextThought into our own software and make a seamless login transition for our current users. The NextThought team was really great to work with throughout the entire process, and we are happy with the end result\! > > **Cons**: The only con is that we are not able to choose the order in which our courses display for our learners. I understand that this is something that the NextThought team is working on developing, so we are hoping this will be a possibility in the future. > > Overall our experience with NextThought was great\! The team was phenomenal - Always kind and helpful. We went through three project managers during our implementation: \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] All three of them were on top of things and readily available to help us with whatever questions we came up with. Our project included some very specific integrations with our own software, and the NextThought programming team was easy to work with. I think our learners have really enjoyed using the platform, and we are pleased with the final product\! ----- ### "Great Platform with Reasonable Cost" — 5.0/5 > **Lindsey** | *29 June 2020* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our small team was able to build out and implement our virtual conference quickly and easily from the administrator side. The learner experience was seamless for the most part with NextThought receiving very high ratings in the post-conference survey. The scalability of the platform is brilliant giving us the ability to build one simple course or a multi-day virtual conference with 80+ sessions. Learners are able to track progress and download certificates within the platform which is critical for our audience. > > **Cons**: The discussion feature on videos is not a real time chat therefore losing engagement and we can't track CEUs for individual sessions when using the platform as a multi-session conference module. Surveys were a little tricky. We look forward to the full Zoom integration, but we will utilize the LTI in the meantime. > > NextThought allowed us the ability to shift quickly to a virtual event with the staff skill set we currently have without breaking the budget. They were quick to respond, willing to adapt and listened to our feedback. Great experience\! ----- ### "Great Team to Work With" — 4.0/5 > **Paige** | *4 May 2020* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple to navigate. Lots of options. Great support. > > **Cons**: Just the learning curve of moving training to a virtua platform ----- ### "NextThought LMS Is our Choice for a Statewide LMS" — 5.0/5 > **Lynne** | *7 September 2021* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Everything about this system was easy during the evaluation period. Easy to build courses, easy to take them, easy to track results. We needed an LMS that allowed for unlimited users as we are promoting a CDC healthcare initiative to every healthcare worker in Maryland. Many of these learners will return in the future for additional training. NextThought offered everything we needed at a very reasonable price. > > **Cons**: I have yet to encounter any functionality problems. > > The support during the evaluation and now that we have started rolling it out has been stellar. Quick responses to any questions. ----- ### "Looking for best quality for investment in an LMS?" — 4.0/5 > **Heidi** | *19 May 2020* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact that Next Thought very easily allows us to integrate learning assets from a variety of sources has been terrific. We can grow our catalog of courses pretty rapidly as we bring them in to this environment. It is very straightforward and easy to use. > > **Cons**: A missing feature is the ability for learners to keep a repository of documents they develop or work on associated w courses in the LMS. This would allow learners to continually access and work on a project (doc or slides) over the duration of a course - and choose when to have a course facilitator review and provide feedback. > > Working with Next Thought's team has been truly wonderful. They listen, and help us figure out the optimal ways to accomplish what we need or want to within the LMS. Sometimes what we desire is "outside of the box," and they collaboratively partner with us to help us provide the learner experience we are after. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/154996/nextthought?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/154996/nextthought) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
