Claned Overview

What is Claned?

Claned Group Oy is a Helsinki, Finland based education technology company offering one of the most comprehensive digital learning solutions in the world. Claned is a learning management system with built-in learning design for better online courses. The LMS is EASY-TO-USE and supports all learning materials, with SOCIAL LEARNING since all materials are interactive and have CONTEXTUAL COMMENTING, letting learners add questions right in their course materials, which drives collaboration and LEARNER ENGAGEMENT. To help instructors, it provides REAL-TIME LEARNER TRACKING, robust LEARNING ANALYTICS and white-labeling to maintain trust and branding. CLANED is based on a trinity of three connecting elements – the platform, learning design, and robust analytics – creating an online learning environment and experience that uses the opportunities and possibilities of technology, making learning more effective with measurable results. None of these elements is separate or stand-alone, they are designed to feed into and support one another, forming an inter-reliant system to enhance, deliver, and evaluate learning. 1. The Online Learning Platform you hope for - Claned’s learning platform is built to be different. From the login page to the layout of the course, the platform is designed to be easy to use, with a user experience that can stand alongside other online experience platforms. The courses are laid out grid-style like Pinterest boards. 2. Learning Design - Learning design involves understanding how learning happens and applying it to the structure, delivery, and contents in an online environment to ensure they support natural learning processes and work in sync with online learning environments’ opportunities, tools, and flow. Claned takes a two-pronged approach to this challenge – by “baking in” tools, elements and functions to the platform that support effective online learning practices and provides guiding information and training for those building and delivering courses so that they can do so in the most effective manner. 3. Actionable Learning Analytics - Claned’s approach is more comprehensive and aims to provide a deeper understanding of both the learner’s experiences, the effectiveness of the courses and its contents in relation to those experiences. Using a combination of AI and machine learning, analytic reports which measure the success and popularity of the content, and topics within a course, are available allowing the instructors and course creators to evaluate their work and understand what works and what doesn’t with a particular group of learners. The platform can be used for any kinds of learning at any scale. The platform is compatible with any device, software stack and content repository. All sales and marketing activities are also performed digitally, offering massive global expansion potential while keeping the expansion related costs moderate and margins high.

What do you like best about Claned?

Claned is an effective platform with a simple and easy-to-use user interface. It is ideal to set-up a centralized online learning space, hosting materials of different types and sources.

The possibility to comment and interact directly with the learning material creates an additional social layer that is quite unique. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Claned?

It offers the possibility to create embedded assessments and quizzes, but it would be even more powerful if it were possible to create other types of interactive material directly in the platform (such as interactive videos). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Claned solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Claned to support blended learning journeys that integrate group sessions, self-learning and on-the-job activities. In Claned it's possible to create learning journeys in which participants can easily access materials in different formats and in a clear sequential order.

Analytical features are fundamental to collect quantitative data on the impact achieved by the learning experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Claned?

I like that Claned is very interactive and intuitive. In our organisation (MY World Mexico) we train people from all ages and backgrounds and it is easy to use for everybody! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Claned?

I would say that the thing I dislike about Claned is that sometimes when you are keeping track of your students progress, the track chart changes its colors or gets weird, and then it is hard to know who's progress you need to look at Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Claned solving and how is that benefiting you?

Give information that is very theoretical in a wide variety of formats, you can add videos and leave comments, you can upload documents and highlight them, you can chat with other people, and even you can get access to other websites Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Claned?

I am very satisfied with the platform itself as well, but the most amazing thing about CLANED is the team behind it. Everyone we interacted with so far was extremely kind, helpful and flexible. They did their best to find us the best solution and support possible very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Claned?

There is nothing that I actively dislike, but of course I have a wishlist in my head that I would love to see developed on the platform. For example: within course team management and team assigments or more embed options (I know this is mostly depending on the partners/websites allowing connection, but weirdly many website that has embed option get refused by CLANED). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Claned solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a blended learning experience course with a lot of practical assigments and tasks for teams to solve. CLANED is a great solution to provide information that the participants can work through at their own schedule, but still keep the program on our scheduled track. Tracking the progress of participants is a great tool for us to follow who got stuck and who is progressing as they should. Generally CLANED is a really great tool for us and satisfies all of our core needs for a learning platform. Also super easy to use from both our side and participants (we got some lovely feedback from them as well). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Claned?

Claned is easy to use and the support staff are really helpful and friendly every time when you discuss with them. Starting and setting up the system was very fast and the platform is simple to use. The system notices the text and creates a unique system which allows commenting and discussion forums. Also commenting on videos is really easy to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Claned?

It would be great to have more "mini-game" like tools and it would be also good to create material inside Claned not just upload documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Claned solving and how is that benefiting you?

We save time in training the staff and having materials in Claned rather than having always live trainings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Claned?

I've been positively surprised how Claned's team treats their clients with a personal touch no matter what size we are. They are open to sharing their networks to help our new business flourish internationally. We've managed to boost our internal process by Claned's Learning Design efficient workshops' structure, help, and encouragement. Claned as an e-learning platform is very intuitive, which I appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Claned?

I had to think deeply before coming up with anything I disliked. Maybe the outlook of the content could be improved so that it would look more branded or personalized. Before signing up to Claned, I gave feedback about the binary gender option, and they added a third option quickly. Feedback was received well and taken seriously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Claned:

I've been delighted with the personalized service from Claned and their support on every step. I hope this will continue when we have set up our courses online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Claned solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were looking for an e-learning platform that would be internationally competitive. At the same time, we were afraid that our lectures would dislike learning a new platform. The intuitive system won us over. The possibility of dragging and dropping different elements and embedding content from various sources make the platform versatile. What makes Claned unique is also their team that is really helping us to build a course that would work in the international context. During the collaborative Learning Design workshops, we have received valuable feedback as well as structure and acceleration for our process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
