Lots of recent polls show that companies don't like their learning management system. The reason is that most LMS's are too complex, steep learning curve, not very flexible, often they have too many features that are not used. Absorb LMS has a good balance...

While it's easy to use, it is a bit rigid regarding front-end options. The ways content can be displayed are pretty limited and often not optimal. Absorb LMS disposes of APIs, but out-of-the-box integrations to other systems seem to be lacking.

Lack of personalization Lack of integrations Ultimately, it's a visually unappealing LMS with no special features that separate it from the rest.
