PLD Mentoring Software Reviews & Testimonials

One of our clients has been kind enough to send a video review of our mentoring software platform so you can hear, in their own words, how the mentoring platform works for them.

"We chose to invest in this platform as it allows the mentoring process to be automated ensuring the reach of our mentoring programme is maximised for benefit of the Ayrshire business community.

The user experience for both mentee and mentor has been enhanced allowing them to access a variety of resources that add value and support their mentoring journey.

The platform and the support we receive from PLD is invaluable and enhances our membership offering."

"The platform provides a cost-effective external one-stop shop web-based platform to assist with career development, guidance and support as well as mentoring for our members and affiliates. It manages itself so enables optimum outputs with our limited resources as a Not-for-Profit organisation as is a promotional tool used to demonstrate our value proposition.

PLD provide support, guidance and updates, which means this initiative runs itself in most instances."

"After a lot of research we felt they (PLD) offered the best value for money and after meeting with them we were impressed with the approach to working with us.

...the team are very responsive and open to suggestions. During the building phase they supported us every step of the way to getting the platform live."

"The platform is very user-friendly for both end users and administrators and has many features and useful reporting dashboards. This allows the organisation to report on the uptake, usage and satisfaction with programmes via evaluation surveys. It is also very interactive and has educational text and video resources which users find very helpful. There is also a flow chart for the process of mentoring and coaching available which explains the process start to end and the platform helps users to navigate through their sessions suggesting helpful models and hints & tips through all stages of the mentoring/coaching relationship. It is just great that the platform can be fully-customised upon the organisation's needs - this is both in terms of the set up and visual appearance. It allows for a variety of programmes such as mentoring, coaching and reverse mentoring also."
