Teachable Reviews & Product Details

Classes are easy to create and navigate.

Compared to other platforms the cost of adding additional admin support is expensive.

The cost is not compatible with newer like platforms. However, it will take alot of man hours to transfer our courses elsewhere. But we may have to this summer. We needed additional admin support without the high exuberant cost.

I looked at many online course platforms before deciding on teachable. It’s intuative and they offer excellent support.

I could use more prodding to finish Building the courses.

Online course creation for my business.

Easy to build your course with a variety of text and file uploads. Easy to enroll customers as students in the courses. Good navigation for customers to navigate through the courses.

Sometimes the system is slow to react. The reporting dashboard could be improved, I still have to manually compile some data for reports.

Educating customers on our platform. Customers can navigate through the course independently and with ease.

Course design and functionality, robust reporting, and easy payment structure.

It could use some improvement in the areas of customizable branding and the ability for community engagement.

Great platform for hosting virtual courses. Payment integration was a breeze and I loved that I had the ability to enable discount codes for promotions.

The best part about Teachable is definitely its ease of use. No special coding knowledge required, everything is pretty drag and drop. We're able to upload videos and PDFs and add things like quizzes and text to each lesson

Lately, Teachable has had lots of downtime and errors, making the site inaccessible. This can be very disruptive for us and our students, especially during launch periods.

Teachable allows us to sell online courses and make money teaching what we love! It's easy to use, complex enough for our needs, and they have responsive customer support

This is a great tool to use for someone who really wants to embrace online learning and teaching on the fly. Teachable has amazing tutorials to help you through every step of the process. It's also so easy to customize, personalize, and frame to your branding and style. We've just recently moved to this tool because it's easy to understand with multiple web-design backgrounds. We are very excited to utilize this and look forward to hearing feedback from our staff.

As of right now we only have the basic plan which leaves us with a credit card transaction fee. At 5% this can really impact sales in the purchasing update and we may have to reevaluate upgrading our account. Also, unless we upgrade, this is only one owner/author which means we all share a log-in and do not have as much traceability as we would with other tools or a different plan.

The biggest advantage is how easy it is to use. We've tested out the editing features with multiple teachers and there have been minimal questions that they couldn't find answers to through training tutorials or Teachable's support staff. With over 2,300 staff members, it's hard to manage all the questions and problems by myself, being able to trust in Teachable's staff is so helpful.

My favorite feature is the ability to update students usernames/password easily when they get locked out.

I wish there was a way to send a coupon code link without having to do a bulk generation.

We have two training courses that we host on Teachable and it is a great tool & resource for our clients to use.

I like it has all the tools. Like certifica, quizzes, Seeing the progress in the videos.

Connection with your students. It was difficult to engage with them.

And helping during pandemic to create courses online teach them.

User-friendliness. Easy to go back if you need to review things.

No way to skip ahead if you get disconnected.

Required training.

The integrations and reporting have made this a perfect platform for lead gen.

There is a pretty significant lag for exporting customer records.

Lead gen Customer education Industry thought leadership

Very pretty and simple aesthetic for students, ability to see everything they're signing up for.

Basic functions all in English even if you switch language to something else.

Needed to create courses.

With Teachable, you can go from idea to execution fairly quickly, and get your course up and running and (potentially) making sales fast.

There are some things which are frustrating and limiting, but you learn to work around them.

I used to host my courses on my own site, but on Wordpress there were always issues with updates and security and plugins, and on Squarespace there really isn't a decent membership solution. Once I moved my courses to Teachable, most of the admin side was no longer an issue or a headache.

Easy to use and input information into the system. I like how user friendly it is.

I am not 100% sure how it will look/feel when complete.

Online leaning - reaching people we cannot normally reach

I like the price the best. Their competitor kana i is waayyy expensive

I wish it had a little more capabilities and flexibility

It’s difficult to brand it to your own business.

- It's partially white labeled, although not fully. So you do get the branding of the specific provider which is nice - Having all your courses from a specific provider in a centralised environment is nice. Otherwise some courses may get lost. - The possibility is there to combine accounts if ever needed (which was the case for me) - When you login to your Teachable account, you get an overview of all your providers and thus all your courses when you click on them.

- It would be way, way, way too expensive for my personal taste to use for my own businesses. I always look for lifetime deal software and if that's not possible, I would definitely find something with a much lower monthly cost. In my case, I'd use WordPress with some plugin(s) to achieve the same type of functionality. - The process of signing up for a course after buying from a provider who uses Teachable can be hard/confusing sometimes. I ended up with 3 accounts and due to my own fault I even lost access to a few courses. Luckily that provider gave me back that access after my request, but it was a hastle anyway. Again, this was partially my own doing (including creating the multiple accounts), but it can be confusing is what I found.

Basically, as mentioned above, I do like it when I purchase a course from someone and they use Teachable. Because by now, I know what Teachable is so it's very easy for me to go to my account and find my new course there. So as a "buyer of online courses", my experience has been positive. Though again, I would not use the software for my own businesses. I'd personally use something different.
