You probably know about ReggieNet and MaxIT, both tools used to deliver instruction and training for different purposes. However, the pandemic and remote work created a new demand to move in-person training and orientations to an online environment. Comevo is now available campus-wide to meet the newfound training demand.
Comevo, an online orientation and training software, delivers a personal and engaging online experience for all users. Comevo has a versatile and intuitive interface making it easy for you to create interactive training sessions.
You may be asking, why do I need Comevo and how is it different than ReggieNet or MaxIT? It is important to know all three have unique and complementary uses. To help you understand what to use, a brief breakdown can be found below:
