Coursera vs. Kajabi

It's absolutely ideal for programming. Today, most programming environments are available for free and enthusiasts can tinker with programming on their own. But Coursera structures that process and presents iteratively more complex assignments to the student. I found it useful for non-programming. I took a refresher Calculus course and the user was able to enter solutions symbolically which I found impressive.

It works great for us in the education space and delivering our curriculum to our clients. It's nice to have some of the extra access features and to have the community feature, so that works great for us. At the same time, Kajabi lacks some of the specificity we need, and I don't believe it is technically geared directly to the education space, so we will likely switch providers in the next couple of years to something that is more robust and relevant to our business model.

• Coursera's courses are extremely good. They are well designed and being a full time employee I really appreciate the fact of how well they are designed.
• They have made sure that everybody gets enough time to complete it.
• There is an active community which is very helpful. No matter how good a teaching material is, you might always need extra help. This community can answer your question. And also this becomes extremely relevant if you are taking programming courses
• There are assignments to test your skills. This is a great way to evaluate yourself. At this point if you feel like you haven't understood something, you can always go back and refer the videos. Most of these assignments can be applied to real world problems as well which is great

• With a featured button as opposed to just a hyperlink, it is incredibly simple to link to a page within an email.
• The marketing strategy's functionality and the ability to customize emails allow me to communicate with every client.
• Course creator to create digital products from your content.

• If you leave the projects for the weekends, your Sunday nights could be a drag. But I list this as a benefit also, it enforces discipline on the learning process.
• I hope Coursera continues to offer no-cost and low-cost learning opportunities.
• I honestly can't think of any serious deficiency in the product. I am a huge fan.

• They've improved leaps and bounds, but their CRM is still subpar
• They have great uptime, but it could be better
• Affordability - I went in hoping to use their CRM feature and cut costs, but their CRM is lacking
• They offer a shopping cart, but in terms of being able to customize and payment option, they have a ways to go.

It’s marvelous.

We are committed to it and once we get "really good" at using it, I think it is a excellent platform and links well to Hubspot. At present, we are still just barely scratching the surface with our use of its features

User-friendly and developer-friendly Web UI.

The back-end system can be used efficiently and has flexibility. It doesn't have a lot of unnecessary functions or un user-friendly features. We have had no issues using the system and would continue to use it with the current functions and features. I would rate it as user-friendly yet flexible

I’ve used it a couple of times and... that did great. They take their time, but in the end they solve your issues.

The Kajabi Support people are helpful, fast and knowledgeable. I usually call in a panic - because I have lost something, messed something or am on a deadline. Sometimes we speak, or we do a chat. Always my angst is eliminated. I often thank the person for being "so patient" with me. LOL

Coursera is familiar, intuitive, compatible and easy to use and implement.

These platforms are big complex pieces of software. Mor recently - Kajabi provides a done for you example which you can borrow and customise - but those were not available when we started.

We've looked at or used many different LMS platforms including Blackboard, Learnshare, Canvas, Cornerstone, SABA, and many others. Each has its pros & cons but I feel Coursera given its brand recognition and built-in following it's a great value for any organization. I would not want to build out an entire MBA or other MASTERS level online program on it but it is a great way to allow potential students to experience your institutions content for a low price (of free).

Kajabi is more adjusted for learning needs. While Tilda and Wix can help to create very customizable designs for landing pages and great checkout experiences, Kajabi is more convenient for creating learning sequences. The best way is to use all these platforms together, so they can support the optional customer journey from landing page to learning on the course.

• Helps our department to recommend trainees courses on this website and gain important knowledge. Also, the courses are provided by big-name universities which helps students in their careers
• Developing and exploring professional skills.

• Saved around $100 a month thanks to combining several online platforms into one
• Saved dozens of hours not having to upload videos and images thanks to the Google Drive integration and URL Import
• Building pages takes a little longer than other page builders due to how many clicks it takes to exit and enter editing settings.
