BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president of the Sexual Health Network. I’m also the president of the United Spinal Association of Georgia, but that’s a volunteer position.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Learngistics?

I needed help with Zoom production for two different projects, one for each of my companies.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

For one project, we were doing a five-week synchronous training program for a group of rehabilitation professionals in Florida. We wanted to be as interactive as possible, so we wanted to push the limits of technology to get as much engagement as possible. Learngistics provided Zoom production services for the program.

We did a lot of preparation before the first session. Learngistics provided two people for the project, so they had redundancy. Before each week, we’d meet for an hour to run the show. Afterward, we’d send the recordings back and forth. Learngistics also cleaned up some of the recordings for me after each week so I could share them in the future.

For the second project, I created a session that we needed to convert from in-person to Zoom. Learngistics helped me with that.

What is the team composition?

We worked with two people from Learngistics: Audrey and Sabby. Both of them knew exactly what was going on, and all the participants knew both of them.

How did you come to work with Learngistics?

I found them through a Google search.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $1,500.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together on the first project from April–June 2024; it was a six-week project. The second project took place in January 2025. Still, I'll hire them any time I have a similar project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The participants were very happy with the overall program. We didn’t run into any glitches.

How did Learngistics perform from a project management standpoint?

Their project management was excellent. Learngistics responded quickly to my email requests, was attentive, and assigned two teammates to the project. Those people were very competent and worked well together. There was always good communication, so I was never confused about who was handling what. They did the opening session and told people all the Zoom edits we were going to do beforehand. We used Zoom and an interactive tool called Mentimeter. We also communicated via email.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

Audrey and Sabby were great. I couldn’t have pulled off such an event without them.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Overall, they managed everything well.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There's nothing they could have improved on.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Just give them a shot.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m an associate professor at the State University of New York at Old Westbury. I’m also the project director for the New York State Regional Center for Autism on our campus.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Learngistics?

We ran conferences and workshops virtually every year. Our conferences were open to the public, and we never knew the type of reach we’d have or who might attend. Before working with Learngistics, we were doing in-person events on our campus.

However, due to the number of attendees and interest, we had folks internationally participating in our events. As a result, we decided to move forward with virtual events. So we hired Learngistics to help us with our IT needs.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Learngistics provided IT and production support for our virtual events. The team facilitated our events and also helped us with dry runs. Usually, the week before our conferences, they met with all of our presenters virtually. The team then checked the audio and video to ensure everything was up and running before the actual conference.

While we were at the event, we had a live Google Docs document. Learngistics also supported us by monitoring the chat throughout the event. So, if there were technical issues on the participant’s side, the team quickly jumped in and supported them individually. Moreover, they handled the Q&A sessions at the end of our events. We fed them questions on the Google Doc, and they gave them to the presenter.

What is the team composition?

We typically worked with two people: Audrey, the senior producer, and Kim, the production assistant.

How did you come to work with Learngistics?

We found them through a Google search. Louis, the founder, responded quickly when we reached out. We set up a call, and he answered all of our questions in a timely manner. As a result, we decided to move forward with Learngistics.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $12,000–$15,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in November 2022, and our last event was in November 2024.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Learngistics was incredibly helpful, and their quality of work surpassed our expectations. Because of Learngistics' support, we decided to hold fewer in-person events at our campus. In fact, we shifted exclusively to virtual workshops and conferences. We held monthly workshops and larger conferences twice a year, and Learngistics supported us for each of those events. We typically received between 500 and 2,000 attendees per event.

Overall, we felt at ease knowing that they would be there to support us should there be any technical issues or questions we couldn’t answer on our own. We felt very comfortable.

How did Learngistics perform from a project management standpoint?

We primarily reached out to them via email. We also did Zoom sessions and phone calls. Learngistics was super responsive and receptive and could follow along, shifting gears very quickly. If there was a technical issue happening, they were on it. They intervened immediately, sometimes even before we realized what was going on.

We were very fortunate to have them on our team. Besides, the team delivered work on time and always stayed within budget.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

Audrey was amazing. She was instrumental in supporting us throughout the project. Louis was quick and efficient as well.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Our time differences could factor in since we worked with presenters worldwide. However, the team was always willing to jump in and make themselves available, regardless of the time or day. Having that level of access was tremendously helpful.

We’re also grant-funded, so sometimes, we never knew when our funding would come in. Nonetheless, Learngistics was very patient and supportive of our program. They understood that our grants office could take a couple of weeks to get things together. There were many layers at the university, but they were very flexible with that.

We did a couple of virtual events before working with them, and it was noticeable that they eased the event management. They took the stress away from us regarding production and avoiding potential catastrophes.

Learngistics always met with us and our presenters well in advance, so we were never logging on five minutes before or trying to work things through.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there weren't any.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Trusting Learngistics’ expertise and professionalism will be huge. Keep in mind that they’re super prepared, professional, and fun, putting presenters at ease. They’re very clear as well. This will help you tremendously in easing the burden of your events.

If you're not considering doing things in advance, give in. Trusting Learngistics' process is for the best.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the operations and customer success manager for a public safety organization.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Learngistics?

We needed support for our online courses.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Learngistics provides technical support for our online courses. They assist our customers and instructors with any service or platform issues. We use Webex for our online classrooms and polling breakout sessions, and Learngistics helps schedule those events with participants, the instructor, and the producer/host. We work hand in hand with them from a logistics point of view and schedule them for upcoming events.

Learngistics has been courteous in establishing themselves as part of our daily operational service, with a reasonably smooth collaboration over the past two years.

What is the team composition?

We work with a supervisor/administrator and about 5–6 producers. If more are needed, they’ll reach out to their roster and secure more.

How did you come to work with Learngistics?

Learngistics was referred to us by word of mouth. Their owner knew one of our executive team members, and they got their foot in the door through that.

How much have you invested with them?

We spend roughly $200,000 CAD a year.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in the spring of 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Customer feedback has been positive. Our instructors think highly of Learngistics, and the internal team works well with them.

How did Learngistics perform from a project management standpoint?

Learngistics is very punctual and easy to get along with. We're able to bounce ideas off them. They're good partners.

We use Webex as our delivery system; other than that, email and phone calls suffice our communication needs.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

The whole team is excellent, and Audrey does a great job for us.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Learngistics is straightforward and professional.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, they're pretty good overall.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Ensure you're clear on your expectations from them, and they'll try to make it happen.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

This ws our first ever Division-Specific AGM, so ensuring that it went off without any issues was imperative. We hti our target audience numbers, the digital tools that Learngistics had set up all worked according to expectations, and they even provided us with digital recordings of the event for our later use. All of the feedback from the event was amazing, and our feedback for Learngistics is the same!

Learngistics delivered everything on time, they also adapted to any last-minute changes exceptionally well.

Working with Learngistics was awesome. Can't say enough great things about the trainer, Joanne, who went well above and beyond, and the entire team (Jenn, Audrey and Louis) who put their heart into developing and delivering the workshop.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the manager of a wealth management and investment firm that focuses on financial planning and retirement for high-net-worth individuals.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Learngistics?

We partner with accounting firms and work on a referral basis with their clients, so we were looking for someone to help us hold a conference to bring in new accounting firms.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Learngistics helped us strategize and execute a virtual conference. They organized and maintained all technical aspects to deliver an effective event. We initially discussed the requirements for the event, such as the length of the conference and the number of speakers who’d be participating.

They then created a work fact schedule with all the deadlines and deliverables. They implemented STAGE TEN, Zoom, and Wonder as the main platforms for the conference. Moreover, they also built an interactive website where people could click through and visit each room in the conference.

What is the team composition?

I worked with Louis (President) who helped with the initial onboarding, a point person, and a producer.

How did you come to work with Learngistics?

They were referred to us by a branding consultant who had Learngistics as a client. We found that they were the right company to help us because they were very professional and they clearly understood our goals.

We spent about $10,000 CAD (approximately $8,000 USD).

We worked together from July–September 2021.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The conference itself was very smooth despite some minor hiccups we couldn’t control, and we’ve also received a lot of positive feedbacks from our attendees.

How did Learngistics perform from a project management standpoint?

Their performance was great. They were very good at keeping us accountable for what we had to provide them, and we never had to wait on them for anything — it was very well-managed.

What did you find most impressive about them?

We were impressed with how smoothly the event came together. It took a lot of work in the backend, and the fact that it was executed seamlessly was a huge benefit for us.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Nothing is really coming to mind at the moment, as we really had a good experience working with them.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I would say to leave yourself a lot of time to get the requirements of the project in order, because it’s always better if you don’t try to accomplish everything last minute. Engage Learngistics early and trust their expertise.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the manager of a human resources firm.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Learngistics?

Our employees are spread all over Canada and work remotely. During these COVID-19 pandemic times, it’s hard to feel a good connection with them, so we wanted to host a unique event that could go beyond a Zoom meeting to interact and engage with our employees.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Learngistics helped us host a social event that allowed us to engage and keep the morale high among our organization members. The event started with a comedian who gave a 30-minute show. Then people could choose between three different rooms; one was a lounge, another was a cooking demonstration, and the other was a tarot reading group. People could go from room to room —it was fun.

They provided us with an online platform and designed a lobby where our employees could go in and choose what they wanted to do.

What is the team composition?

We worked with Louis (President) most of the time.

How did you come to work with Learngistics?

I was already familiar with their work, and I reached out to them when I needed their services.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $7,000 with them on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from May–July 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The feedback from their work was overwhelmingly positive. People talked about it and were impressed with the unique and fun experience, which is what I was looking to provide.

How did Learngistics perform from a project management standpoint?

They were excellent in that area; they delivered as expected. We communicated via email and in-person meetings to ensure that everything was clear — they met all of my requirements.

What did you find most impressive about them?

At the beginning of the project, I didn’t have clear expectations, and they helped me set them. It was nice for me to see how we imagined something, and they delivered it as expected.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they can improve on — we had such a fun time with them.

Any advice for potential customers?

Survey your employees to help pick the events that they want the most.
