Common complaints - recurring incumbent review gaps = the wedge to build
Reports lack depth, customization options, and clear dimensions; difficult to track learner progress comprehensively across courses.
Mobile application has limited functionality, navigation issues, and lags; poor field-worker and remote learner support.
Backend is complex and overwhelming for new users; poor search, navigation, categorization; feels unfamiliar to non-technical staff.
Native course creation lacks interactive features (branching, quizzes); requires external tools; work not auto-saved.
Learning paths lack functionality, flexibility for required/elective courses, and scheduling; lagging behind competitors on AI.
Few integrations beyond SSO; difficult to embed seamlessly into websites; URLs change when switching platforms.
Cannot schedule course assignments by date for product launches; bulk upload requires username not email; enrollment logic unclear.
Admin dashboard hard to navigate; batch uploads inflexible; no auto-refresh of certain settings; needs better audit logging.
