Regular feature updates are being prepared, allowing users to focus on using the system. In addition, the user-friendly UI helps improve work efficiency.
The training delivery methodology is inconsistent and a bad experience. The actual training classes themselves are okay, but the IFS Academy construct is a high friction experience i.e. Why is it a different credential than other IFS accounts? Why are virtual classes that are just recordings given a short completion window? (This is relevant because a typical experience is users buying courses they intend to take in the near future when they have a quiet week, using unspent budget at year end; they get stuck having to request the course be unlocked again when it times out in 30 days)
It's too flexible and teams don't understand the impact of decisions made.
Regarding intranet connections within the company, it was not possible to restrict IP addresses, so a different solution was required. Also, the issue of garbled characters occurring when using SJIS was an issue.
