What makes Ekko different?

Although it’s built on the Totara platform, a few key differences make Ekko an even better choice for organizations with large numbers of deskless/frontline workforces and in heavily-regulated sectors.

Software as a Service (SaaS) – ready to use in minutes
Built-in capabilities, UI, and UX – no additional development required
24/7 self-support portal
A proprietary, smart mobile App
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)-driven
Location-based personalized learning and compliance

Advanced Compliance & Policy Management capabilities

Although Totara provides the functionality to support compliance training needs, Ekko takes things to another level with clever, automatic conversion of policy, process, and user guide documentation into easy-to-access conversational knowledge resources

Ekko also allows you to monitor employees’ compliance maturity and provides personalized, real-time learning suggestions to enable continued employee growth.

The compliance information you need, when you need it

The Ekko Mobile App includes the same standard features provided by the Totara Mobile App: course access, a SCORM player, and in-built authentication.

But Ekko’s Mobile App really takes things to another level…

Purpose-built to fully incorporate an intelligent, AI-powered knowledge bot, Ekko communicates policies and procedures in a human-like conversational experience and enables users to receive instant, automatic, location-based compliance advice – wherever they are, whenever they need it.

3 reasons to consider Ekko versus Totara

There are many reasons customers choose to go with Ekko over the core Totara platform (or any other platform(s) for that matter). The top 3 reasons:

You like Totara but need a more robust, turnkey Compliance management solution

Ekko was built (using Totara as the base platform) to better meet the needs of compliance-heavy organizations. If this is you, then Ekko is a no-brainer.

You have a largely desk-less workforce

If large numbers of your workforce are front-line or “desk-less”, the Ekko Mobile App gives your teams a virtual assistant in their pocket to ensure they have access to the latest compliance policies and procedures, wherever they are.

You work in a heavily-regulated industry

Ekko makes compliance and policy management easy. Simple to administer for your back office teams coupled with clever technology that means your frontline has access to all the latest policies, procedures & training, whatever their location.
