Gainsight Boosts Course Completions by 67% With Articulate 360

The Challenge

Gainsight needed a fast, efficient authoring tool to deliver effective online training

• Gainsight needed a modern, user-friendly authoring tool that would allow their instructional designers to build simple, introductory product training for Gainsight’s end users.
• They wanted to create seamless learning experiences while providing foundational knowledge and skills to new learners.
• They knew their chosen tool needed to prioritize speed and efficiency, as this would allow them to quickly develop content to promote quarterly product updates, build out robust course content for both online and blended learning environments, meet increased demand for localized content, and construct scalable, easy-to-use templates.

The Answer

With Rise 360, Gainsight streamlines the e-learning process

After its authors experienced difficulty using Adobe Captivate, Gainsight switched to Rise 360, part of the Articulate 360 platform. Rise 360’s ease of use was the primary reason for the shift. Course authors find that it’s more straightforward to use compared with Adobe Captivate. They consider Rise 360’s block templates user-friendly and helpful in creating engaging content quickly. Additionally, the Review 360 tool makes the stakeholder and peer review process fast and efficient.

Overall, the transition to Articulate 360 has allowed Gainsight to streamline its e-learning process, saving time and increasing productivity while delivering stellar customer results. “Everybody feels good about building in Rise 360,” says Lila Meyer, Gainsight’s Director of Global Education Services. “You can quickly and efficiently assemble content into a course.”

Since switching to Articulate 360, Gainsight continues increasing the monthly active users in its customer-facing LMS, Gainsight University. They have achieved a 67% increase in course completions and a 56% increase in the number of users returning to Gainsight University.
