2. Heropa APIs;

3. Image template of VM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

User deletion along with the event deletion is not in sync even tho there is an option available in event policy settings. If you create users through Heropa API, event users won't be deleted automatically after the event ends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

New features of the user session token and Heropa APIs offer us flexibility as well as security. that our team will leverage to validate users before they access to workspace URL. We now provide user VM access with workspace URL because of recent revamping in our infrastructure. Now we are heavily rely on Heropa API and planning to retire the LTI launch URL for accessing VMs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heropa?

1. Modern Interface and User Experience At the forefront of our admiration for Heropa is their modern interface and user interface (UI). The front-end design is not only visually appealing but also intuitively navigable, making it a hit among our learners. The simplicity and sleekness of the design ensure that users can focus on learning without any distractions or complications.

2. Ease of Use for Learners Heropa excels in creating an environment where ease of use is paramount. Our learners have consistently reported a smooth learning experience, with minimal to no technical hurdles. This ease of use significantly enhances their learning process, making complex lab activities seem more approachable and less daunting.

3. Efficient Admin Console On the backend, Heropa offers an admin console that is a game-changer for administrators tasked with building out lab environments. The console is not just about control; it’s about streamlined efficiency for ease of implementation. It allows our team to manage and monitor lab activities with ease, ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

4. Simple and Quick Template Creation The ability to create templates for launching lab environments is another area where Heropa shines. The process is straightforward and quick, which is crucial for us to save time and resources. These templates have been a key factor in our ability to scale our training programs without compromising on quality or speed.

5. Collaboration and Customization Perhaps what sets Heropa apart the most is their openness to collaboration. Working with them to customize their platform for our specific needs has been a seamless and enjoyable experience. Their team’s willingness to adapt and tailor their services to our requirements has not only made our lives easier but also enhanced our learners’ experience.

Heropa isn’t just a service provider for us; they are a partner in our educational journey.

What do you like best about Heropa?

We used Heropa to teach a one-day course on river ice modelling at a conference. It worked perfectly! We loaded the computer models and relevant model files onto the virtual machines and tested everything out ahead of time. On the day of the course, all 35 participants were able to login to the VM without any issues, and everything worked flawlessly. The VM was very responsive with no noticeable lag using the WiFi provided by the conference hotel. The customer support while setting up the VM and testing out the models was also excellent. I would definitely use Heropa again! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heropa?

No dislikes! It all worked great and we knew that customer support was available for help if we ran into any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Heropa made it easy to make sure that all students were operating on a level playing field. It removed any potential headaches associated with students having trouble installing software or not being sure where they had saved their model files. Knowing that all students were using the same setup made trouble-shooting very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from 💭 Jason Kinsella of Heropa

Thanks Vince for your review. We appreciated the opportunity to work with you, are really pleased that your conference went smoothly.
