I think Thinkific is way better than Udemy. The Udemy platform was not user friendly, they require you submitting for approval before you can even upload a course and have so many restrictions. They never even approved my course, nor did they email me as to why. The support is …

I prefer Thinkific over Kajabi because I found Kajabi to be less organized for teachers to keep track of everything that needed to be uploaded.

I believe that the rates and the over all set up and view are better than both. I also like the separation site. Having your own custom site is so much better for business and being able to create landing pages as well. It’s a great value
Chose Thinkific
Affordable, efficient and highly effective!

I’ve used both platforms and found Thinkific to be far more intuitive and flexible than Teachable. The layout of the dashboard feels cleaner and more user-friendly, which makes managing courses a smoother experience. I particularly appreciated the level of control Thinkific …
Chose Thinkific
I don't have experience with other platforms, therefore my opinion is limited. However, a big reason I went with Thinkific was that an organization I did leadership development for used it to create their own course. I liked the experience and wanted to replicate it for myself. …

We used Academy of Mine before Thinkific - for us it was a horrid expereince - terribly clunky interface, customer support lacking, horrid fornt end experience for learners, even worst backend experience for users.

I inherited Thinkific when I stepped into my role. But my colleagues chose Thinkific because it offered a good balance of commerce-ready, user-friendly interface, and tiered pricing plans
Chose Thinkific
Thinkific feels much more modern.

We ended up choosing Thinkific over competitors because of the ease of use to initially get started. The pricing and packaging were favorable for our use case and needs, and the customer support was strong as we were initially getting started with a few challenging items such …
Chose Thinkific
This review is only for the course building functionality. We moved to Articulate 360 for the course building portion of the program because it's way more feature rich and have been please with it's capabilities. We've yet to investigate other LMS options because we've been so …
Chose Thinkific
We used a training platform called Rise. While it was a good platform to build and host courses, it gave us zero room for custom options and or branding. Thinkific allowed us to create our own branded website to house courses, and hide content based on where they are in their …
Chose Thinkific
Thinkific is much better than Skilljar, which why we decided to migrate. First, the payment structure is not MAU-based, which is great. AI integration is much better, and I can generate captions for my courses using AI, which wasn't possible with Skilljar. Also, Skilljar didn't …

Workramp is paid per user and also a platform fee, making it a less financially viable option
Chose Thinkific
I think that Thinkific has a lot of the same features as many other products, except these features are all found in one central location (for the most part) vs having to use several different apps and platforms. While there are some things that other platforms do better, like …

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • I would add some more blocks for page design to have more options as to what I can do, like a proper gallery where you can open and close images.
  • I would expand the text options within specific blocks, like being able to hit enter inside a text box and having my paragraphs separated if I wanted to.
  • Adding new integrations would be awesome, so you don't have to pass through Zapier. Maybe a ClickFunnels integration?

We will continue to use Thinkific for our company pieces of training. Until we are able to create our own in house portal, this is an excellent source to have a learning management software tool that is easy to use and easy to implement without much technical training to administer

Usability
No answers on this topic
Under Site Builder, when trying to add a new section, so many templates appear; however, preview is not shown, which makes it super difficult and time consuming to identify a template that suits the purpose. Customization of certification designs is a bit difficult too. There are limitations to the type of quiz questions I can create - for example, there's no option to have fill in the blank questions.

I've never had any issues with accessing Thinkific but I can see when it has been a problem for others. When I get updates on when they are doing maintenance to their platform I tend to make sure that is not the day I plan to be working on my school so as not to get frustrated

Performance

When it comes to the performance of Thinkific for me I find that it's good but could be better. I tend to think that the larger the files and videos you upload on your courses may add to the impact of it's uploading (not sure if that's actually true or not). But overall the performance of Thinkific via my tablet and desktop is very good when I have a fast speed broadband speed

I rate Thinkific a ten because of its excellent customer service, ease of use, high-quality product, fair price with excellent ROI, and because they keep making improvements. Using Thinkific solved the problems of piecing together our course with various WordPress plugins, iframes, and payment processing software. It's easy to create a course website for people who can't write code.

Implementation Rating

The implementation period took time like it would in earning and using any new tool. It was more about being organised, having better time management processes in place and having people you were able to reach out to if you were every able stuck. The other key ting with the implementation period was giving yourself a realistic time scale to get the job completed.

I think Thinkific is way better than Udemy. The Udemy platform was not user friendly, they require you submitting for approval before you can even upload a course and have so many restrictions. They never even approved my course, nor did they email me as to why. The support is not there like it is for Thinkific. Also, with Udemy, it feels like you are competing with so many people because they are given other options in comparison to you vs on Thinkific, it truly is your own. You do your own marketing and when people come to your landing page, it is all they see. They can't venture off of it to go to the next person who is on Thinkific. I love Thinkific and tell everyone to get on it. People say to me they want to know my ROI before they decide to invest in it. They want to know that it actually works.
