What do you like best about Degreed?

Degreed provides an incredible opportunity to reinvent the way organizations are managed through practices and strategies focused on SBO (skills-based organization). Based on two main pillars (skills and AI), it has been reinventing the way to feed an organizational strategy focused on a culture of continuous learning that enhances business efficiency instead of chasing recurring deficits. It connects project/volunteering/learning opportunities with development and a comprehensive view of data from various variables. It is essential to mention the incredible action of monitoring, fostering discussions, benchmarking, and events that the company's CSM, support, and directive team offers. The platform is very easy to implement, with a highly prepared team for this special moment, where every detail is considered. The platform already has various integrations with other platforms, in addition to support for others that your organization may be interested in. Its implementation easily results in an increase in user engagement within the organization and learning becoming more organic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

I believe that the search engine has a significant deficiency that needs to be reviewed. With the large amount of information, the user can easily find themselves lost, despite knowledge architecture modes allowing for a reduction in impact. I believe that perhaps a part of the platform that accepts more fluid learning journey actions is greatly missed, such as receiving files from learners and a specific place to engage with mentoring (the opportunities section only makes visible). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Simply has been helping us in the most difficult mission that the world today asks: how to turn my organization into an SBO (skills-based organization). Clearly, there are other factors such as the formation of a continuous learning culture, increasing the impact on operational efficiency, and connecting the People management with business strategies.

What do you like best about Degreed?

I like the most the way that Degreed values all kinds of learnings, helping the company that I work for to reinforce our continuous learning culture. We can easily add to the platform formal learning (certificates, graduations), informal (articles, videos, podcasts, books) and social learning (such as events, hackathons). The degreed button make it easier to add these contents as soon as we complete them, helping us to use the platform every week. And last, but not least, our Client Success Manager is a gift! She is kind and truly interested in our goals, helping us to improve our learning strategy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

We need some improvements regarding accessibility and parts of the integration. Degreed is totally open to do help us with this, but I find it a little bit slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Integrating all kinds of learning (social, formal and informal) in one place to help us reinforce our learning culture and mapping skills for us to understand the gaps of learning we need to work on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Degreed?

What I like best about Degreed is how my organization can connect multiple content providers into a single system. The days of employees having to go to multiple sites for access is a thing of the past. I also appreciate how Degreed takes a skills forward approach to employee development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

Because the platform is so different than a traditional LMS it is not an easy transition from the traditional LMS experience for the L&D department or the learners. Also since it is not a LMS some of the management capabilities (the M in LMS) are limited or non-existent. Reporting is still a work in progress, but Degreed is certainly putting a lot of resources to making it better - but it's still not there yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Integration of content in a sole system, allowing for the creation of customized tracks to support our learning programs, improve the organization's maturity around how skills first mindset can benefit support the business and employee experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Degreed?

Nothing. It is sold as a great tool to learn and the " the world's biggest corporate learning platform" but not one of its promises is fulfilled. I can't honestly think of a single positive thing to say about this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

The user experience is horrible. Information architecture is a mess: I can't find anything, the menus don't make any sense. Basic navigation heuristics are either ignored by the people who created this abomination of a product, or they simply don't care. As a user, I'm required to do a crazy amount of clicking to perform the simplest tasks. The content area of learning materials is restricted to a tiny modal, which I have to scroll right back to the top to close. I have to compulsively mark things done, and the button is in the most awkward place possible. Also, the done feedback is never updated in real-time. There are no useful features: bookmarks, categorization, filters are useless. But I keep getting random useless content shoved on my face.

Sincerely, Degreed people should spend more energy on trying to build a good product, and not on theses obnoxious in company workshops on the importance of lifelong learning. I learn everyday by simply living, and your platform is the last place any functional human being will voluntarily go to get any useful information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It should be a tool to harbor all relevant information on the company, and facilitate onboarding and upskilling and overall information sharing on the whole company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Degreed?

It's a nice tool that is most likely provided by your organization to help you better your skill set. It has a wide variety of courses to offer and there's something for everyone. The courses are all ranked so you can pick and choose the course you want. You can enroll in a path way which you can complete over a period of time. Some of the courses are expensive if you were to buy them from an external place like coursera or other learning platforms. While you are lucky to actually get it from your company because I would imagine that it would cost a lot if you were to go out and buy it yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

While some courses are nice and informative, some more premium ones might not be the best. There should be a better way of showing who the course is taught by before beginning the course. Sometimes it becomes difficult to complete the courses and they sometimes disappear from your main dashboard. You need to look for it again to find it and then the progress might disappear. Many premium courses like ones from Oracle are not on the platform and mostly YouTube videos appear when you search for such training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Degreed:

There's a lot of content for people looking to learn new skills and technologies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Upskilling on skills required to do the job. Also exploring other areas of work that can help in your career down the road. It's also nice to track your learning progress in one place. There's lot of content for people looking to learn new skill and technologies. It saves you a lot of time and effort by offering these trainings in one place.

What do you like best about Degreed?

I along with thousands of employees in my Organization use Degreed for Upskilling, learning and Preparing for external certifications.

I have prepared for two external certifications from Degreed i.e. Azure AZ900 & AWS Cloud Practitioner exam.

The best thing I find is the content is very specific to the subject and the learning can be tracked in real-time.

They have the best integration with another learning platform like Coursera and Pluralsight which are embedded in the learning Pathways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Degreed?

Overall tools given empower the purpose but when it comes to the mobile application for the same whether it is Android or iOS, It disappoints a bit.

Most features available on the Web version of the application do not seem to work smoothly.

Although there have been significant improvements from the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have used and used it in present for learning and upskilling myself as well as I use it for preparing for external certification exams.

In my organization, they have created learning pathways for the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
