Question 2: Can I customize the branding?

The look of your online courses adapts seamlessly to your company. Options include: a custom logo, your own corporate colors, and individual background images.

To ensure everything looks professional in the end, we generate the branding not automatically, unlike many other tool providers. A professional designer takes care of perfectly implementing your company's branding on the blink.it platform.

Here you can see two examples from blink.it customers of what a custom branding looks like:

Question 3: How quickly can I implement blink.it?

When it comes to software and learning platforms, many HR professionals think of months-long processes: From the booking, the entire IT must first be switched and adjusted. This can take weeks or even months from the decision for a tool to the first live use.

With blink.it, it's much simpler and faster:

From the booking, it only takes about one working day until your platform is ready to go. This is mainly because blink.it as software does not need to be installed, but is accessible directly in any browser.

You can start creating courses and content and familiarize yourself with your new platform right away. The corporate design usually follows within a week. So you can get started with blink.it within a week!

Question 4: Can I integrate blink.it into our existing LMS?

Do you already have an LMS and want to use blink.it for creating your online courses?

With our newly developed LMS connector, you can easily transfer your blink.it content into your LMS! Your learning progress will be included as well. Thus, you can use blink.it as a fully integrated learning platform alongside your existing LMS.

For example, you can create an online course on the blink.it platform. You link the course into your existing LMS via course links. In addition, you can import and synchronize user data from almost any other system into blink.it.

Or you connect blink.it with the intranet in your company. Your employees do not need to register separately and can directly access the blink.it course. If your employees now, for example, pass a blink.it course with a certificate, blink.it can report the successful completion of the course back to your LMS. This way, you always have all information in your existing LMS while still being able to utilize all the benefits of blink.it.

Question 5: Can I use blink.it without an email?

E-learning without an email address – is that possible? The answer is yes! We want ALL employees in your company to be able to participate in further training measures. Because often, employees on the shop floor, in stores, or in field sales either do not have their own email address or use accounts outside the company network. Therefore, with blink.it, you can:

Register employees with personnel numbers, UIDs, or freely chosen usernames.

Combine registration with SSO or user data synchronization.

Question 6: Is there support for implementing my online courses?

With blink.it, you're not just buying a learning platform, but a comprehensive concept for company training. Of course, we support our corporate clients at all important points even after the “tool purchase”:

For general questions and minor issues, you can contact our customer support. Support and our developers work closely together to quickly resolve any technical difficulties.

As a corporate client, we assign you a personal Customer Success manager. This individual supports you in all matters related to the daily use of blink.it to make your online courses in the company as sustainable and successful as possible. This ranges from course planning to tips on motivating your employees.
