What do you like best about Credly?

Credly - It is a very useful tool. It's good to be able to concentrate the certificates, a good way to share. Very good. Good for locating training related to the profile of interest and following a coherent knowledge trail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

Easy and reliable verification of certified skills.

What I like best about Credly is its user-friendly platform that showcases verified certifications, offering talent sourcing departments insights into a candidate's proactivity and career motivation.

We always check it if the candidate provides us with the Credly profile URL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

I wish Credly had more offline verification options.

Let's say for example. it's possible to add badges into Google Wallet, just discovered that possibility recently.

However, Graphically it's not very presentable if there is a need to show it to someone quickly, because it shows QR Code for other person to scan and to target Credly URL profile and specific badge.

I mean, it's not bad, but by my oppinion it would be great if the badges itself can be viewed offline in Google Wallet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Credly solves the problem of verifying certifications, ensuring they are legit and recognized.

This benefits me by providing a reliable way to gauge a candidate's skills, proactivity, and career motivation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Credly?

Credly is incredibly easy to use. With their open API, implementation and integration with all my required resources was/is simple and efficient. I use Credly every day, and their customer service is above and beyond. Never do my questions go unanswered, and the answers I receive are not only helpful, but they solve the issue quickly with very little delay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

I have no complaints. As a system administrator who uses four different programs on a daily basis, using Credly is a breeze, and I am grateful that I have it as a tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Credly is helping us to solve our certification woes. Previously we were without a validation of certifications, relying on PDF certificates issued from an LMS. Credly provides a way to validate these for us as a company, as well as providing a way for recipients to effectively show off their skills with the vast sharing across social media. This is good for our recipients and it's good for us as a marketing tool for our products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Algunos problemas que he notado en Credly están relacionados con la navegación algo confusa para nuevos usuarios, sin embargo al ser un usuario nuevo, esto mismo me impulsa a familiarizarme más con la plataforma y a explorar sus características en profundidad.

What do you like best about Credly?

It is nice that you can drill down to see where others are applying the knowledge gained through the badges. It gives you a boost to gather more credentials.

It is helpful to be able to quickly see the makeup of the award gained through the accredidation and to allow others to easily see what it means to have the skill.

With the ease of publishing the badges it helps support a mindset of validating all your skills. You are encouraged pursue more badges and the acquisition and display is very easy.

It easily integrates with your LinkedIn account so you can concentrate on improving yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Sometimes the skills you have aren't covered in Credly. And I have seen some anomalies in the workforce that claims to own the badges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is user-friendly, allowing one to navigate around with easy operation. It gives excellent visibility and credibility to professional people and organizations by integration with a number of learning management systems and social media platforms.

What do you dislike about Credly?

While Credly offers many strengths, its pricing model can be a bit steep for smaller organizations or individual users. Additionally, some users have reported that the initial setup and integration with existing systems can be complex and time-consuming. The platform could also benefit from more customization options for badge design and more comprehensive support resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Credly provides a platform that solves both the verification and management of credentials by earning, displaying, and sharing verified badges and certifications.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Credly?

Credly is a platform which help me to gather all our digital badges in an unique place. A lot of organizations are connect with this Credly platform. There're a lot of micro webservices behind to facilitate any user to receive its badges. We can easily share them in Linkedin, Facebook, and so on.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Credly?

Credly recently perform an update or a new release which I don't like much. Fom our dashboard, we cannot ordering (filter by recent badge or older, etc.) our badges as before. I also think that Credly should sensibilise the organization which are not or don't have an account on Credly. There are a lot of organization like WordPress, ISTQB and so on.. where we can't share or get digital badge from Credly. I think that is quite strange and for ISTQB for example user can't easily share their certifications via digital badges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

For users Credly is very important. The platform allow us to receive, validate, share our digital badges. Whith this platform, we can easily share our achievements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
