What do you like best about Arist?

Love the course editor. It allows users to plan content on the go because of how the course lesson layout is structured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

Obviously missing a few capabilities (though that's normal with a product in early-stages). I dislike the learner controls (adding and managing learners). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving learner retention, engagement, interaction. It also creates a deadline for training tot ake place, being a project management tool almost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arist?

It's so simple to use. I was so used to dealing with annoying platforms to learn. Now it's so easy. Just use my phone text and I can learn. I wish all courses were like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

I wish there were more courses that used SMS. My biggest complaint is not enough companies are using Arist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arist?

Arist just makes sense. Rather than introducing a new communication channel, learners can be reached right where they already are. There's no need for new apps, sites, or interfaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

Some neurodiverse learners prefer separately boxed learning platforms, rather than having them mixed with existing mediums. The option of a separate, dedicated learning app or site might be worth exploring down the road. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

My team struggled to train service partners operating in the gig economy. Arist kept the technology bar low, was inclusive for speakers of all languages, and cut down training time by 50% while significantly increasing effectiveness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arist?

The best thing about Arist is how insanely easy it is to sign up and take a course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

Arist's pricing is fine at our size, but I would want to know how much it will cost when we're enterprise-scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a small company. Arist's premade courses help us learn and grow without too much time investment from my end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arist?

From the ease of the platform to the "in the flow" nature of the experience to the team behind the scenes, Arist is a force. They are truly changing the landscape of learning and communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

There is nothing to write. I love everything about Arist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

Arist is solving the problem that most learning is delivered outside of the flow of work. Due to the clunkiness of elearning and the opportunity cost of f2f, it is difficult for corporate learners to find the time and keep the attention needed to build skills and change habits.

What do you like best about Arist?

The platform is very user-friendly - had no major learning curves when building & deploying courses. The analytics dashboard is incredible, and I love being able to dive in and find individual responses when I need them. My learners love that they can choose between SMS and Slack when picking where their course delivers to! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

Nothing so far -- the team listens and solves any concern or question I've had. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

Arist is helping me deliver learning that will actually be taken (and enjoyed!) vs learning that people feel like they "have to do" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arist?

Arist is research-based and field-tested. The interface is super user-friendly and with the new Arist 2.0 anything is possible from customized delivery channels to the creation of cohorts, Arist has listened to its users and made changes for the (even) better! As a K-12 and adult educator, I use Arist to deliver professional development training for all stakeholders, from teachers to secondary students to, parents. I've even utilized the platform to successfully train limited English proficient parents on how to navigate the U.S. school system. The system was responsive to various symbols and characters that are language-specific and nothing was lost in translation. Kudos to Arist founders for developing intuitive and innovative pieces of instructional software for the modern teacher and busy or hard-to-reach learner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

The legacy Arist platform did not allow flexibility in delivery to cohorts or channels. But the 2.0 upgrade has thoughtfully integrated these features into the course building framework. I love Arist, what's there not to like? it's flexible learning! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

Parent involvement is the great equalizer that can put historically disadvantaged and oppressed communities on equal footing. Unfortunately, not all parents are confident about what they need to know, do, and say to help to create better opportunities and optimal learning conditions for their families.

In just 60 concise text messages delivered using the Arist platform I lay out in plain language (and emojis 😃), the keys to success in and out of school. Interactive lessons help schools and districts engage busy and hard-to-reach parents and caregivers (many of whom are immigrants and refugees) in their heritage language at a time that is convenient for them.

What do you like best about Arist?

Very easy to comprehend on-boarding for the platform and very responsive team that answers your questions and helps guide you and clarify any issues. I looked at other options, but this platform not only provided what was needed, but also with the technical support needed to be able to quickly change and adapt to an evolving situation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arist?

Nothing thus far, I used the initial Arist platform for sample versions of our couse and was able to get feedback from users, and analytics from the platform, which helped us modify the course to meet our end goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arist solving and how is that benefiting you?

We created a course to helpt veterans with less-than-an-honorable discharge, who may have been discharged this way due ot mental health /ptsd that was not identified prior to the discharge. Since we are all pro-bono consultants (and mostly combat veterans ourselves), and thus not an established entity, we were looking for a platform that would allow both developing our product, while also be fiscally conservative.
