Transparency

How this comparison was built

A fixed method, applied identically to all 19 platforms in this set.

12 Capability claims per vendor Recorded only where the vendor states it on their own site. A blank means not verified, never assumed absent.
3 Independent review sites G2, Capterra and Gartner Peer Insights, each read on the vendor's own profile and screenshotted.
67 Screenshots held as evidence Every published rating traces to one of them. Each figure was read by a person on the vendor's own profile and captured on the date shown.
1 Named owner One person is accountable for every figure on this page, recorded against the vendor row.

A rating is printed only where a screenshot exists

Score, count, what the count measures, the profile name, the profile URL and the date read. Missing any of them and the figure stays off the page.

Unevidenced figures are suppressed, not estimated

Where a rating cannot be evidenced the cell reads "No verifiable count identified" rather than showing a number we cannot stand behind.

A wrong-product listing is discarded

Two listings in this set matched a different product entirely. Both were quarantined rather than published.

Capability rows record claims, not tests

Each row reflects what the vendor publishes about itself. It is not a verdict on how well the capability works.

Vendor figures are attributed to the vendor

Any performance number published by a vendor rather than independently verified is named as theirs in the text.

Facts live on the vendor, not the page

One correction to a vendor row fixes every page that references it, so the set cannot drift apart.

Why Disprz cannot tip this page

Disprz publishes this page and does not get a vote in what it says about Cornerstone or 360Learning. A rating is copied from that vendor's own profile and stored with the URL and the date, so any reader can open it and check.
  • The method was fixed before any vendor was read, so no row was chosen after seeing who it favoured.
  • Every third-party figure carries a screenshot, a profile URL and a read date.
  • Where a figure could not be evidenced it is suppressed, including for Disprz itself.
  • Disprz is not one of the two platforms compared here and is excluded from the capability table, though its own verified ratings are shown alongside for reference.
Spotted something wrong? It is fixed at source on the vendor record, which republishes every page that used the figure. Tell us what to correct.
