I like the efficient layout of trainings, the amazing network of resource persons and trainers, the price friendly platform and the encouragement and support of the community and trainers. It inspires action toward achieving my goals because everything I require to be successful is provided to me. Love this and appreciate it all so much.
I haven't found anything to dislike yet.
Clarifying my own strengths and abilities Clarifying my target audience and laser focusing to avoid confusion Inspiration and mentorship from other participants and trainers/resources persons A platform that simplifies my course material layout and design
Thinkific is easy to use, and its support is top-notch. Everything is well thought out with this program.
I don't think anything is lacking with this program. I have no dislikes about it
I am solving the problem of hosting videos for a training program that I sell. The benefits are that everything is in one place and it is easy to use
I love the ability to be able to share files of all kinds so I can be as creative as possible in my lessons.
I wish I could have the option to charge taxes.
People need to learn the material I'm teaching in a new way so I use audio and video instead of endless boring text. My study guides help people who learn differently, like me.
I like how easy it is to use the platform to upload my content for my clients. That's one of the things I was looking for when I was scouting platforms to host materials for my business course.
To be honest I cannot think of anything i disliked about the platform
I normally had to do my course in person but due to the COVID pandemic I had to transfer my course online. That's how i decided to try Thinkific
I am not a techie, and I found that creating my course on Thinkific is easy to use, and find my way around the platform. Uploading my videos and worksheets was easy and if I messed something up it was easy to delete and start again. I like that their online and phone help really know what they are doing and can explain things so I could understand and resolve any issue I had.
The pricing is okay but could be better in my opinion.
Thinkific gave me a platform where I could host my courses, set my pricing and easily share a link to sign up for my program. I really like the ability to share a sign-up link.
Easy for us to use, easy for students to use
I wish there was a way to offer gift cards, but I'm sure it'll happen!
Having an online course powered by Thinkific has changed our business forever. We initially joined knowing that the online course market was growing, but weren't sure if our courses would be translatable to an online format. It's given us so much freedom to teach less one-to-one and instead have students take the training whenever is best for them.
It is simple and user friendly, great place to start with your online education journey!
Some elements seems to be missing or need to be improved - variety of exercises one can use.
Easy access and contact with existing clients. We are a language school and find the platform very useful!
I love that in Thinkific I can create as many courses as I want - replicating course material is a breeze and their high-touch support is there every step of the way.
I wish that Thinkific had built-in translation / closed captioning service.
I have built multiple streams of revenue. I have created multiple courses and am growing a membership program. This is a dream come true.
Thinkific is fast, affordable, and easy to use
The certificates feature is not available in the Basic package.
I use it to train students. So far, I've been able to: - Train over 8,000 students across multiple courses - Support many of these students to be among the highest-paid in the region
The tutorials and handholding on something as daunting as setting up your own online courses made life so simple. All the platforms have the tools, but Thinkific guides you step by step to making your own course.
There isn't much to dislike. I guess that the free account only lets you do 1 course, and limits some tools, but if you're serious about online course creation, you're going to sign up.
I'm helping beginner photographers become professionals without spending 10s of thousands of dollars.
The simple interface guides you through the course creating process.
So far so good. I have no complaints or dislikes about Thinkific.
My meditation courses teaches other people that the solution to their problems lies within.
Thinkific is a purpose-built online course builder software so not only does it have all the features necessary to build and manage an online course, but also offers the ability to support students and market your courses.
Like all platforms, there's a bit of a learning curve with understanding how to get set up initially. There is however plenty of tutorials and courses (of course - no pun intended) to help you work your way through step-by-step. I think it's well equipped for the novice to self-learn at their own pace.
Thinkific allows you to create an online course that has a high chance of being completed due to the interactive tools and features that it provides. For example, one of the features I find most useful is the quiz feature. This allows the student to test their knowledge at the completion of a module and works towards recreating a class-like experience, rather than a "read this and good luck" style of appraoch.
I love that even with their Free plan, you have all the necessary functionality to get yourself up and running. Then you can add features as you need instead of having to pay for things you don't really need
Limits on having outside payment avenues
Thinkific allows me to have a seamless, beautiful, and powerful way to both share and guide my students along in their journey to making their travel dreams a reality.
The tutors can make web designs of their own.
The promotion of the content is not very well supported by the team Thinkific.
I am providing the question answers and study materials to the students. The students can get access to the lessons quickly and practice quizzes.
I love that Thinkific was extremely easy to set up. I especially love the free plan which I currently use. Since I'm trying to grow my business this is great to still get a course out but not have to worry about a huge overhead cost - especially if business is slow to pick up.
I love everything about Thinkific. I can't think of anything I dislike at the moment.
Helping women to incorporate practical ways to manage their mental health (stress, anxiety, depression, lack of self care, low self esteem)
The platform offers all the key functions required to get started selling online courses. The user interface is very intuitive and it was easy to get started combining this offer with the information Thinkifiq share online on YouTube etc.
The only thing I have anything negative to say about so far is the designs of the different Diplomas and Certificates. I would have preferred the possibility to design my own as it is a vital part of my company profile.
Well - the overall major benefit is that this solution has allowed me - a mediocre data guy - to create a training and building my own new business online.
Thinkific was incredibly easy to start with and test the waters. They have a free subscription that allowed me to build out my entire course and start selling it for $0. It wasn't until I actually started to make profit with my course did I upgrade my plan to a paid plan and unlock other features.
The community section doesn't work very well in practice, I wish it was a bit more built out and mirrored Facebook groups with notifications and other ways to get people engaged.
Needed an online platform to build and host my course, I didn't need all the extra features that other course builders provided. I wanted a relatively inexpensive solution that focused solely on the course builder.
My favourite thing about Thinkific is how easy it is to navigate and utilize to its potential. I love how easy it was to set up the multi-pay links for courses, which we had troubles with in the past!
With the multi-pay links, I wish there was a way that customers could access the cart and checkout page without needing to create an account first.
We are training and coaching Shopify store owners to grow their sales. We host group coaching calls, and it's a nice feature to include the zoom details right in the portal.
The outstanding helpdesk and the vision of this innovative company!
There is nothing I dislike. I am sorry...
I created my own online school and had an income with it in the first year!
Thinkific was easy to use right from the start and easy to use all the functionality. Also, UI is good to manage all things.
The cost is the only thing I can mention.
Easy to use and manage all the think via one platform.
