Other major solutions in the Infor lineup in the realm of financial management include:

• Q&A (Query and Analysis) - a powerful business intelligence tool that enables organisations to gain valuable insights into their data, making it easy for business users to generate reports.
• Infor OS - a next-gen cloud operating platform that helps organisations connect all their systems and applications, providing a unified view of their operations.

This suite of solutions can provide your finance team with a holistic approach to financial management rather than just relying on a single product.

And with so many solutions to choose from, navigating the Infor ecosystem can be challenging. Understanding the full range of Infor products and how they can be used to meet business needs can be a daunting task. Even if you do find the right solution, learning how to use those products effectively can be much overwhelming.

Challenges businesses face when it comes to software training for end-users

A non-dedicated learning platform for end-users

Despite having an extensive network of Infor channel partners, there is yet to be a dedicated e-learning platform for end-users seeking to upskill or streamline training and onboarding processes for their teams.

Though Infor has developed several learning portals, such as Infor U, the Infor Documentation Library, and the Infor Support Portal, access to these resources is restricted. Materials available on these portals primarily cater to IT professionals and software consultants rather than end-users seeking to enhance their knowledge and skills.

Challenges with offline and virtual training

In addition to the portals and platforms offered by Infor, businesses often opt for offline and virtual training sessions with application consultants as more widely applied solutions, which also have their own set of benefits and setbacks.

1. Accessibility

Both offline and virtual training sessions come with their own set of challenges. One major challenge is the fixed schedules and locations, which make it difficult for learners to attend. This becomes even more problematic for those with conflicting schedules or in different time zones.

Additionally, organising physical training sessions at various sites can be a logistical nightmare, not to mention the costs associated with travel and accommodation for trainers and trainees. The same goes for coordinating virtual training sessions across different time zones, which often requires investments in specialised software and hardware.

2. Scalability

Offline and virtual training sessions may have limited availability due to factors such as venue capacity or trainer availability. Thus, organising large-group training can be a problem.

Imagine that your business has hundreds of working sites and business units scattered across the globe. One site in Ho Chi Minh City, another in London, Seattle, etc. Now imagine the task of delivering consistent and high-quality training for all those locations—it's no easy feat!

3. Cost inefficiency

Although consulting with application experts is a preferred method by many organisations as these matter experts can create customised training materials that meet the business and end-users' specific needs, the cost of training can be extensive.

Moreover, the training is usually only delivered once on all features. This can be problematic if users forget certain features and do not have a resource to refer to when needed.

Limited progress monitoring and evaluation is another issue businesses typically face when conducting offline or virtual training sessions, making it hard for businesses to identify areas where learners may need additional support or determine the success of the training program.

In this digital age, businesses require a contemporary solution that not only accommodates the schedules, preferences, and learning paths of end-users but also offers interactivity and valuable information to reinforce their expertise. On-demand learning presents itself as the perfect solution to fulfil these needs.
