Considered Both Products
HubSpot Academy
Chose HubSpot Academy
HubSpot Academy is great for training on the HubSpot CRM. Like stated in pervious questions, it is very simple and easy to use. It is the best way to train for using HubSpot because there are videos and practices for every topic like email marketing, workflows, etc. I …
Chose HubSpot Academy
The platform and the content are all free to use, browse and get certified. No locked content or anything like that. Also the certifications are all free. You get a badge and link to share on social media right when passing the test.
Chose HubSpot Academy
Salesforce does offer instructor-led or self-paced learning and the certifications weigh pretty heavily with customers and employers. I think HS Academy provides comparable learning with an opportunity for attendees to implement new tactics and strategies into their routine. …
Chose HubSpot Academy
HubSpot CRM is a better fit for us than Ontraport. Ontraport was OK when we just started implementing email marketing. Now that we want to tie together sales and marketing and also our ticketing, HubSpot has simplified the workflow for us. It's very convenient to log into just …
Chose HubSpot Academy
Digital Marketer is another one I've used, and it's more for detailed courses with examples and worksheets. You take the knowledge and apply it for actionable results right away, where as HubSpot Academy are more high-level courses to refresh you on various topics, but don't go …
Chose HubSpot Academy
I think it goes straight to the point. It doesn't have a million courses but it's enough with the ones they have because they're amazing.
Renaissance myON
Chose Renaissance myON
These two products work very well together as well as by themselves. myON Reader gets some good support from myON News. After students read articles, the program suggests books in myON Reader for them to continue reading on that particular subject. myON Reader has a good …
Chose Renaissance myON
Renaissance myON is hands down the best as compared to Epic. I am allowed to consistently monitor my students. I am able to print reports to help evaluate student progress. I can also use these reports during parent/teacher conferences so parents and guardians can see where …
Chose Renaissance myON
I like that myOn is connected to all of our resources on Renaissance. The STAR assessments will recommend books at the student's level. They are connected, so students can take an AR quiz when they are done reading. Epic is not designed to do those things.
Chose Renaissance myON
Epic is far easier to use, with more engaging titles and a user-friendly platform.
Chose Renaissance myON
All the Renaissance products are so user friendly and have the ability to fit into any educator's classroom needs. [Renaissance] myON [Reader] goes hand in hand with Accelerated Reader and easily links the quizzes for the students to access. My students have stayed so engaged …
Chose Renaissance myON
Renaissance Accelerated Reader and Renaissance Star Assessments
Chose Renaissance myON
I like Accelerated Reader because it shows the comprehension level the students have after they read a book. However, I like myON because it just does a few more things than AR-- it goes above and beyond, and you are really able to see the growth your student has made on a …

[HubSpot Academy is] just a great tool for everyone who wants to grow at their Marketing, Sales, or customer success career. Their courses are very detailed in information, their teachers are the best in the industry, and it's just easy to take some time and learn. I have enjoyed it a lot.

myON is a good program for all students in the middle grades. Using the suggested readings, several of our EL students have increased their vocabulary as well as overall reading proficiency in English by at least 1/2-1 grade equivalent within a school year.

Cons
  • [I feel] they could expand the lessons to more real-world examples and ideas to take the learning further
  • [I believe] the ability to go back on a question in the exam would be nice
  • New courses that go more in depth on a certain topic, with homework and ideas to try

  • I could never figure it out.
  • Students levels from their STAR test did not translate into the books suggested on myON.
  • The platform is cumbersome and inaccessible for students and teachers.
  • I am fairly tech-savvy, but I could never navigate through and understand how myON worked. Eventually, I gave up and switched to Epic.
  • The book selection was poor. Only the non-fiction books were interesting to my students. None of the popular titles and authors were available.
  • It was a big disappointment and frustration for me and my students.

Usability
For HubSpot Academy's usability, I rate it a 9 because it is very simple and easy to use. HubSpot Academy is very user friendly. You can pick a category like "email marketing" then you will have an intro video, follow up detail videos, practice quizzes, interactive practices, and some sections have a certification quiz at the end. It is very easy to navigate sections. The only reason I rate the usability a 9 instead of a 10 is because sometimes HubSpot Academy does not register the interactive practices.

If there are any issues and concerns while using myON, there are many help resources available to offer assistance.

HubSpot Academy is great for training on the HubSpot CRM. Like stated in pervious questions, it is very simple and easy to use. It is the best way to train for using HubSpot because there are videos and practices for every topic like email marketing, workflows, etc. I personally think HubSpot is much more user friendly than Salesforce. However, we do use both and like both for different reasons but I think HubSpot is simpler to use.

All the Renaissance products are so user friendly and have the ability to fit into any educator's classroom needs. [Renaissance] myON [Reader] goes hand in hand with Accelerated Reader and easily links the quizzes for the students to access. My students have stayed so engaged while reading/listening to fun books on different topics for class. They love the fact that they can listen to the books while following along in the digital book. This helps my struggling readers have success.
