How Training Impacts User Software Adoption and Secures a Low Churn Rate

A low churn rate and high customer usage and satisfaction with your software solution is the sweet spot to the sustainable growth of your organization.

 

Many software companies rely on NPS, robust support documentation, and a dynamic content strategy to achieve this sweet spot. Training is also at the core of ensuring a steady and reliably low churn rate and a high level of customer expertise with your software. Ping Identity knew this, yet their training team was being held back by inefficient training software solutions that resulted in a web of spreadsheets and disconnected learning analytics. They were losing valuable time, so they came to Administrate looking for a data-driven approach to training.

The Challenges

Using spreadsheets to manage course catalogs, instructor schedules, and course information was slowing their team down.

Accessing multiple disconnected systems compromised data integrity, making it difficult to connect the dots between training and organizational goals.

Bulk email sends to learners and instructors took up most of their team’s time, limiting their ability to think strategically about the future.

Several people gathered around a single laptop with papers and reports on a messy desk, while one person types on the laptop and the other two point at their screen.

Ping Identity University now achieves agile business goals because they have redefined what makes training operations efficient.

“Administrate scales training without adding staff. Years ago I was at Sun Microsystems, and back then it took 10x more staff to deliver the same content to the same number of learners that I can do today with Administrate. Now you can grow training volume without growing staff.”

The Solutions

Synced calendars for resource availability, and course and instructor schedules provided their team with actionable visibility of training.

Administrate’s training management system provided Ping Identity with a single system of record where all their training data from multiple systems is housed.

Automated communication triggers, flexible course templates, and a powerful, customizable, no-code reporting engine empowered their team to get strategic.

“One of the most common problems, when you’re running things manually from spreadsheets, is scaling your operation. The standard response is to expand the team and hire new staff. Actually the answer should be to invest in your system infrastructure. The answer is Administrate.”
