The context

A rich and highly configurable training management platform.

A French SaaS vendor for more than 35 years, VAL Software works with training organisations, apprentice training centres, corporate universities and training departments. Its Ammon solution brings together the administrative, educational, commercial and financial management of their activity.

The blind spot

The more configurable a software is, the harder it is to pick up.

The functional richness of Ammon is an asset for VAL Software’s customers, and an obstacle to the first hands-on use. Every new release adds possibilities that nobody discovers on their own.

Frequently asked questions

What we are asked about this deployment.

Does K-NOW replace training on Ammon?
No. Training and project support stay in place. K-NOW takes over inside Ammon, at the moment a user looks for the right action or discovers a feature they rarely use.
Which application is covered?
Live: Ammon, the training management solution from VAL Software, with support embedded by the vendor itself.
Who creates the support content?
VAL Software, as the vendor. The guided tours, stickers, announcements and business journeys ship with the software, with no adoption project to run on the customer side.
What does it change day to day?
Help is inside Ammon. The user is led from one step to the next on the main journeys, finds the tip at the field concerned and discovers new features where they are used.
