I also like the functionality and ability to manage people's training while they also have a degree of control also. The support from the training team is excellent and I learned a lot of new things from my recent training. > > **Cons**: There were some controls that can cause chaos if you are not 100% confident of what you are doing in the background. After some excellent training, I have a better understanding of the the issues we were having and now they are no longer an issue. Sometimes getting through to Access support on the phone can sometimes be a bit of a mission as they have more than one learning product and inevitably I call the wrong one and have to explain myself to another person. > > LMS Evo is an excellent product and for the end user it has a good interface. The mobile app is ok and has in the past been problematic but recent versions seem to now be a lot more stable. ----- ### "IT Support Review & cyber security" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 February 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most is how easy it is to access training on Access Evo. It would be nice to have email reminders when training is overdue. Is this something we can change in the future with support? As extra feedback I would like to add cyber security awareness training onto Access Evo, I might be the one hosting the training as I just completed cyber security training: > > **Cons**: We do not always receive email reminders about our training: We should be able to contact support if we have any concerns about how to use AV Access Evo does not work the same on the mobile app; some Team Leaders and other staff are assuming it would be easier for Support Workers to do their training on a Smartphone. We are looking tonot getting Android tablets for staff, which will be compatible with both the Evo Access app and the browser version so that staff have a choice on how to use it. > > It's has been a very useful learning platform: My experience has been mostly positive as I completed all of my training ----- ### "Functional, but needs a lot of improvement" — 3.0/5 > **DARIUS** | *4 November 2025* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The reporting tool and course content creator suite work pretty well. There is a lot of flexibility in the type of course content you are creating and uploading works well. Access keeps good records of user progress. > > **Cons**: The way in which everything is in tabs and there is only ewver one URL for the whole process. A nightmare for finding what you want, and an even bigger nightmare when you just want to share the URL to a particular course that has been uploaded. The search functionality on the content finder is absolutely horrendous. Requires lots of trial and error and wading through 'bloat' of built-in courses that the company just doesn't use. Annoying pop-ups from the Access team that constantly get in the way of what you're doing - no one cares about the last 7 notifications. These need to be moved to the banner at the top, not forced to overlay and get in the way of what i'm doing. The ability to send reports via email doesn't work either, even when scheduled. The site looks like about 2-3 sites in one, with some pages having a new colour theme, and over-simplified, clicking another link takes you to a page using the old theme. It just comes across as a half-arsed job and not thought well through. The constant requirement to open new tabs makes the site load slower and slower. No way to share a link directly to a course so a user can click on the link and register (should they require it - not everything needs to be set form the Users \& Details page, some training is optional). > > Aggravating. So many UI updates are required to make this feel more intuitive and easy to use for both Admins and users. It gets the job donem but the weird setup of one apparently unchanging URL is quite frustrating when it comes to navigating the site overall and sharing things with others - to speed things up. As the search functionality on the Find Content is absolutely awful and full of bloat that no one ever looks at. ----- ### "An evolving LMS which ticks most of our boxes" — 4.0/5 > **Rachael** | *4 November 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Access LMS has been a reliable platform for us for a considerable amount of time now. It meets most of our needs, supports both in-house and external training content, and helps us manage learning effectively. The support team are responsive and helpful when we need them. Recently there have been continuous improvements with the launch of Evo and these updates seem to be continuing with lots of upcoming ideas. I like that they are taking on board feedback, yet we haven't seen the output of the feedback come into effect yet. When researching competitors that ticked similar boxes we found Access good value for money. > > **Cons**: While we’re happy overall, a few core features could be more polished. Basic functions like reporting, and navigation can feel a little forgotten. We’d prefer Access to focus on refining these essentials before introducing more new features (even though new features are great\!). Some of our needs are quite specific, but streamlining everyday tasks would make a big difference. These tweaks would elevate the experience from good to great. We have recently merged with our parent company and some further customisation between different teams so we can collaborate as well as keep certain things separate would be ideal. > > Access LMS is a dependable and easy-to-use system that continues to evolve. It’s backed by a supportive team and offers solid functionality that meets most of our (sometimes specific) training needs. While there’s still room for improvement in a few areas, it’s functional and clear that Access are committed to developing their product. We’ve seen consistent progress more recently and appreciate their openness to feedback. If you’re looking for a learning management system that’s flexible, reliable, and improving all the time, Access LMS is definitely worth considering. ----- ### "Fantastic improvement\! :)" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *15 September 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the new look in the platform. As a super admin on the platform my job is to sell the ease of use as well as our learning offering in the business, Evo allows me to do it in a platform that feels fresh and modern. > > **Cons**: There are a few processes that has an old way of doing things as well as a new way of doing things which can get a bit confusing. It would be good to highlight new features as well a guide on how to use the new feature? > > Really positive, we are a fairly new business to access learning and the old version wasn't an easy to use platform. you can see the work that has gone into the platform and the continued work on the back end of the platform which i can see is geared towards a better user experience. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/391768/access-lms?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/391768/access-lms) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
