Thinkific Plus Reviews & Product Details

Very user-friendly. Anyone can set it up in minimal time.

Nothing as such. I love the interface and it was surprisingly easy to set up. No Indian payment gateway direct interface and setting it up with zapier was expensive.

I am helping people take great pictures.

As a teacher and creator, it's easy for me to create content and get it online.

Some features are more limited than I'd like. Sometimes I like having more control.

I can quickly get a course online and monetize it. I can easily create a membership and provide them with drip content and communicate with them easily through the site.

Thinkific allowed me to manage a large volume of students to develop parallel training programs with a high degree of satisfaction in the operation and ease of use

I think it could improve the management of other types of content (not just pre-available ones) to complement the user experience.

For the development of the training projects, we needed a platform that would work on all devices and that was also easy to learn to use. Without hesitation, Thinkific is extremely intuitive and allows you to build solutions without knowing how to program.

I like that it's easy for me, as a course creator, to build courses with ease. I can get creative in terms of how I setup the course to make it a great experience for participants.

I can't say I dislike anything. I'm sure the platform will continue to grow and as I build more courses, I'll use more of its functionality.

I'm really just a new user but having tried Teachable and Mighty Networks, I really love the professional look that I get with Thinkific. It's easy to use and creates a great student experience.

It's very user friendly. The way the content course is created including the sales page, makes it easy to use and to sell as well

Nothing so far. There is nothing I dislike

I created my first online course in Thinkific and I have already sold a few!

The ease of working with the functionality is the major plus on thinkific

The user interface and the experience has room for improvement using gamification which currently does not exist

Taking my courses to the masses . Helping my coaching business grow and make the best of my skillls to turn into paying business using thinkific

When looking for an LMS for The Leadership Project, I reviewed every platform on the market. Thinkific had by far the best and most immersive experience for my students and customers.

The sales and business management features are not as strong as others, but these are all things that are better off having in your own native website in any case. Importantly, the features that Thinkific has that the other LMS platforms do not have, would be VERY difficult to build or add-on by yourself.

An incredible LMS that allows me to bring all kinds of learning material in and enrich my learners' experience. It also has amazing testing integration.

The features to build out online courses were easy to use. Connecting Zoom sessions to build out courses made it easier to give all participants access to the sessions at the same time. Thinkific was our organization's solution to meeting the needs of our users who were accustomed to our annual physical training but we were restricted during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thinkific's premium plans are affordable thereby allowing smaller businesses to scale upward quickly. Finally, our team enjoyed admin features which allowed us to maximize the training experience for all. The Thinkific team was very helpful in responding to our queries and recommending solutions.

There were very few things that we disliked while using Thinkific. Possibly lack of marketing our course by Thinkific on their platform(s). The inability to access payment options based on our region of the world/country, to receive payments - this was our greatest limitation. The last would be the restriction to three courses unless on a premium plan - because our training activities are usually once a year, Thinkific is one way that we could potentially have courses up for all time use but the restriction would mean that since new users checking for courses throughout the year may not be a high intake, there may be a loss. We accessed this for our first few months of using Thinkific and our first year of being on Thinkific off of a plan.

Thinkific is helping us to solve one of our business problems of providing digital and creative education to our young and mature users virtually due to the physical restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we also tackled the problem of ensuring the safety and well-being of our users and team. We also tackled the problems of accessing an international audience and exploring fintech and digital skills training unique to our operations over the years.

The simple & easy to use the thinkific course builder & landing page / course marketplace features.

The current capacity of the thinkific systems to evidence & report on user participation, progression & completion of assessment tasks. That said, the improvements being made to the system are quite promising.

Providing Teachers, Trainers, Assessors & professionals working in tertiary education with on-demand courses, webinars and continuing professional development solutions (CPD).

Courses Building and Selling it Online Students Management Instructor-Led Session

I love the layout. I love the security. I love the backoffice features like monitoring and moderating access to our material. It also provides us with marketing, and ultimately compensation possibilities. Great Platform for our training videos.

It would be lovely if it could accommodate all the translations that we have, for the various people groups. As a Not-for-profit, it is just too deer for us to maximize our training for each of the 21 language groups we are catering for at present. Since we basically have 6 different courses, it transcends the ability of our resources.

We wanted to have a drop and play platform where we could monitor progress, and monitor who watches what. We were looking for a secure platform where we could know for certain who actually views our material, as well as create a medium by which we could interact with those who watch the various videos. We also wanted to track the progress of participants, as well as provide a pathway for those who successfully complete the associated Assimilation Sheets, to be rewarded with a certificate of compliance and completion. This platform provided interaction opportunities.

I love the fact that Thinkific is very intuitive and easy to use (from the creation of a course to publishing and learning)

I wish there were a way to control who can subscribe to our platform/website with Thinkific. We don't sell any courses, and we use them for company internal learning only. Right now, we need to add them as private or hidden and manually enroll each student (employees) every time.

Thinkific is making our onboarding process super easy! As we have employees across Canada and the government guidelines don't allow traveling during the pandemic, we are also being able to transfer a significant amount of knowledge by creating and assigning online courses to new employees!

I love how Thinkific covers everything in one place, much easier than using Wordpress and a bunch of plugins

If you're new to creating courses it can be a bit expensive at first but once you get rolling it's amazingly valuable

I used to run my online courses through a bespoke Wordpress website with lots of plugins, that was very time consuming, maintenance heavy and liable to malfunctions. With Thinkific, I can be confident that I can run my entire business from one place without any major problems

It's ridiculously easy to set up a course page with Thinkific. I'm on the free tier currently, and I was able to sell a few copies of my course with no problem. It looks really professional and well done. It's like the Shopify of Course Creation. I'm 100% signing up for the PRO version once I figure out how to get profitable with my course. It's a no-brainer.

I wish the 1-page checkout can be permanent. I get lots of sign ups for accounts but no purchases. Right now, it's still an experimental feature but should a choice. Also, I don't know which one performs better.

I am creating a course that I can sell. It's effortless to set up. You don't have to worry about anything else.

Overall, Thinkific has allowed me to bring learners from all corners of the globe, with different learning styles, into a space that is safe, secure and future-ready. It allows me to make better use of my time - I save, on average, 3-hours of marking per day! An added bonus - I was pandemic ready! <3 I am so grateful to Thinkific for enabling me to uphold the same level of service and maintain an income during these trying times. I started using Thinkific as a tool for independent practice for learners who were spread across Asia - I needed a solution that provided learners with digital (easy to access) practices that could fit in with their busy schedules and didn't add to or duplicate my workload (marking the same tasks for many students over and over). I was previously using Google Classroom, which meant using a variety of applications and the need to link them into classroom streams individually, however, I wasn't gaining more time in my schedule - quite the opposite! On the other hand, Thinkific offers a range of 'applications' from quizzes and surveys, external multimedia, assessments and downloads, as well as video and audio, in one place - easily copied to other courses without spending time and effort re-inputting data. Thinific's reporting functionality allows me to monitor progress (quickly) and provides parent/guardian feedback which is backed up by activity logs and outcomes, available at the click of a button. With ready to use templates that guide you, along with a variety of functions to offer an engaging experience, Thinkific has continued to provide a space that my learners enjoy and doesn't cost the earth to join nor specialist knowledge to create. I work with practitioners in different time zones, providing different areas of tuition and guidance - Thinkfic allows my business to have everything in one place - different user roles puts me in control of what others can see, edit and use and learners have access to the same tools and service, regardless of their programme or aims. The availability of add-ons like Brillium (assessment) and Zoom (live lessons) enhances the learning experience - bringing everything to one place. Stripe and Paypal connections, alongside marketing and analytic tools reduce administration and staffing - linking all areas of the business.

I have been using Thinkific for 3-years or so and it continues to adapt and provide features you don't realise you need - pushing your to continuously adapt and improve your own provision! In the future, I am looking forward to being able to offer an adaptive learning space, differentiating learning and making it even more accessible.

Thinkific has allowed me to deliver career education to young people regardless of what country they are from, what school or college they go to, or what their economic background is.

When I compared it with other platforms it was the only one that offered a free version to allow business to build, which was and remains crucial for me because my sales are extremely slow. It's very simple to use and modern.

I couldn't delete old courses to create new ones within my 3 course limit. I have been testing markets so if one doesn't work I need to be able to create something for another market.

Once it's set up I have it there to promote or do flash sales whenever I need a cash injection. It helps me offer tasters and low cost option for those with small budgets.

The Features: Certificate generation, internal community for the students, fast custommer support

That I have to pay $0.10 per enrolled student per month past 100 and that translates in me not giving the student a long time access to the course.

On place for all my courses, free and paid with full control and I own the content.

Easy to use, and comprehensive in its options. Almost anything I need to do I have been able to do so far

The interface can be a bit more streamlined, and more variations on the course themes and the site building are necessary

I have been able to create a complete course portal that delivers all my content in a reliable method to my students

What I like about thinkific best is that it comes with a website and one free course to try it out before you commit.

If I'm being honest, what I dislike is that when the student clicks a category tile, the site directs the student to the category links first, instead of the courses within the category. It confuses my students because they are clicking the category tile to see the courses, not the links. I can see them going back and forth looking for the courses, not realizing that the courses are at the bottom of the page. The courses should be at the top of the page and the links should be at the bottom of the page...

The platform I was formerly using did not come with a website and so I was having to pay a website builder to design the site and upload the links of my 300 courses; with Thinkific, my website is being created for me in the background so all I have to do is plug in images and information. The Thinkific website has literally saved me thousands of dollars!!

I appreciated the personal email after signing up with invitiation to speak to a customer service rep. I had bad experiences on other platforms and wanted to ensure this platform would work for me.

The landing page capabilites are adequate, but I would love the ability to customize more of my page.

A platform where I can deliver my course seamlessly to my customers and membership site. The benefits are it's easy to sell, track order and get paid right away!
