Simetta vs ERP training videos and courses

Videos and online courses are a good way to show how a screen works. They can’t tell you whether the person watching can do it.

Where training videos is better

  • Cheap or free, and there’s a lot of it, including the ERP vendor’s own courses.
  • Good for concepts and for windows a simulator doesn’t cover yet.
  • Easy to rewatch at any speed.

Where Simetta is better

  • People practice the task themselves, on the screen, until it passes.
  • The score means something: different data each attempt, checked field by field.
  • Managers see who can do the work, not who pressed play.

Using both

Use videos for orientation and the big picture, then Simetta to practice and prove each task.

Questions

Do people still need the vendor’s training?

It’s useful background, especially for admins and power users. Simetta covers the daily tasks each role does, hands-on.
