What do you like best about Credly?

With Credly, sharing badges and certifications is just one click away! It's very simple. What I like the most is the recommendation of certifications in the same theme. I really like the display of skills acquired by certification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Although with Credly you can share badges on multiple platforms like LinkedIn, the sharing via link does not suit me! The URL is very long! I want a shorter link in terms of character length. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Before, each certification provider had its own certmetrics, it was difficult to consolidate the certifications and acquired skills, with Credly, this is resolved! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

Adding and managing badges is easy. We've used Credly for many years to grant our learners certification badges that they can then share on LinkedIn and other sites. Setting up an expiration date for each badge is also easy, and Credly automatically sends emails to earners when their certification is nearing expiration. Running into issues happens so infrequently, but on occasion when something goes awry, their support team is quick to respond with an accurate solution. I highly recommend the Credly service! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

A pre-built integration with our LMS of choice doesn't yet exist, so we do need to do a manual issuing of badges each week. That said, performing that manual upload can be done in 3 minutes or less, so it's not a deal breaker for us in any way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our badge earners appreciate maintaining proof of their certifications in a central place. When they share their credentials via LinkedIn, attention is brought to our training, helping to bring additional learners in. Also, having a shareable page with certification expiration dates clearly marked helps prospective employers to verify the certification status of their potential new hires without having to contact us for verification each time.

What do you like best about Credly?

The process of accepting and displaying credentials is straightforward, and it integrates smoothly with social media platforms like LinkedIn, making it easy to share achievements with a broader network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

There are a few areas where the platform could improve. I found the navigation slightly cumbersome, especially when trying to locate older badges or filter through multiple certifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Credly helps me by solving the hassle of proving and organizing my certifications. Instead of managing paper certificates or constantly updating my resume, I can easily showcase my skills with verified digital badges. It’s convenient because all my credentials are stored in one place, and I can share them on platforms like LinkedIn. Plus, employers or peers can instantly trust my qualifications since they’re authenticated. It also helps me stay current, as my badges show when I earned them and if they're still valid. Overall, it simplifies how I present my professional achievements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

We’ve had a great experience using Credly for our digital badges. It’s super easy to use, both for us and for the people earning the badges. The integration with LinkedIn is a huge plus, making it easy for learners to share their achievements. Since we started using Credly, we’ve seen a lot more engagement as people show off their badges. It’s been a real boost for our program, giving professionals a simple way to highlight their skills. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking to step up their credentialing game! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Not necessarily a dislike, it could just be not being aware of how to do this, but would love to integrate it easily into Salesforce or Litmos so that we could automate the issuing of badges and bring reporting into Salesforce for a comprehensive view of our client's engagement across all the different platforms we use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Credly solves the challenge of recognizing and validating professional achievements in a streamlined, digital format. By offering an easy way to issue and share digital badges, it increases engagement and visibility, especially through LinkedIn integration. This has helped us promote our programs more effectively while reducing administrative work. The platform’s verification features build trust in the credentials we issue, making them more valuable to both learners and employers.

What do you dislike about Credly?

I would like to modify the current UI by prioritizing UX improvements. While it looks clean, it's a bit inconvenient that users have to navigate everything manually. It would be great to have features like recommended services based on category settings to enhance the overall experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

I love the way it allows you to share the certification or skills achivemet on various social media platform and generates the content to start with. Easy to use and see all under one roof. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Some times the share option is not visible eventhough you are logged in, it seems to think you are a viewer of the badge and not the actual achiever. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is solving the capability to track all achievements and skills under one umbrella, technical or non-technical. Allows to share the same easily and help employers or colleagues verify the achievemnt quickly without the need to share physical copies of the certificates with employers or any institute. Provides various skills details which can be achived by some one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No doubt in it definitely the redumption of badges.

Not only the certification badges but also the bages of other courses, trainings.

This is definitely a gold for college students like us a we can have all our great collection of badges at one place and can showcase our creadly profile in our interview and also for submissions in our college. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Claiming of the badges, definitely its a problem if you by mistake clicked on "Reject" the badge you will never get it again. I have it must have a solution.

The microsoft badges and certification bagdges are not beeing displayed in creadly, so that has to be taken care for wide range of audience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

To share the individual badges link of all our achievements and creadly is correctly doing the job to bring all the badges at one umbrella.

This defenetly a great thing for students and job seekers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

The credibility of being a recognized platform and the way we have to safely recognize and validate skills and achievements was important in getting my job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

There is nothing specific that I don't like, but as a suggestion, I would like the badges earned with the institutional email to be integrated with our personal Credly account, becoming unified. This way, we could see both the badges earned with the institutional email and with our personal email. I say this because, when we are fired from the company, we will no longer have access to our institutional email. Here's a tip. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The problem it solves is how to prove our knowledge. As a benefit, we will be recognized in the market Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
