What is 5app?

5app is a learning platform that provides organisations with one solution for learning, comms and knowledge. 

Making content available to your people should be easy, but it rarely is. The 5app learning platform bypasses needless complexity to achieve rapid knowledge transfer with minimal effort.

With over 30 global enterprise customers and users from more than 70 countries accessing the platform every month, 5app is trusted by organisations worldwide.

5app supports the rapid deployment of programs. In fact, you can get the platform up and running for your users in minutes. It's also fully accessible on any device and supported in 18 languages.

The platform can be standalone or complement your other tools. We can plug and play with multiple HRIS, learning libraries and traditional learning systems.

Customers say that 5app quickly becomes the place that employees go to find out what is going on in their organisation:

“5app is my go-to for learning about business updates, exploring learning content, and everything social. It also continues to be a great tool to support me with hybrid working and learning.” – Sam Hendy, Hemsley Fraser

What do you like best? 5App are a joy to work with. From understanding our vision and learning strategy - willing to join and be part of our journey and not just a provider. The 5App platform is so intuitive and requires zero training. Engagement is now 92% month on month! Through partnering with 5App we have been awarded a Gold Brandon Hall award for the 'Greystar Business School' (5App platform) and have a further submission where a product we have created was pushed through the platform. Highly recommend.
What do you dislike? I don't have anything I can really say that I don't like about the platform. Any suggestions or requests are either actioned or discussed and placed on the 'future roadmap'.

What do you like best? With the touch of a few buttons and no huge user manuals, we can upload and create playlists to share the latest business comms, news, onboarding welcomes, policies etc to the right people at the right time. The latest features have allowed content creation to happen across every team without the need to give everyone admin access. Whether you are an admin or a learner the UX is simple and there are regularly new features which enhance and improve how we use the hub at HF.
What do you dislike? We would like more features to support group learning and have social interactions, which are in the roadmap.

What do you like best? Very friendly and approachable customer service - account manager, product manager. They make you feel like you're their one and only client, and you feel your issues and questions are their priorities.
What do you dislike? Their platform is a work-in-progress and they develop/add features almost every month. I know if something bothers me and I make suggestions to improve, I will be listened to.
