Product Description

Pluralsight Skills provides online training courses for developers and IT professionals.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

--What's the best way for your teams to keep up?

In a rapidly changing technology world, training employees is a no-brainer. But the route you take to keep your staff sharp can be less obvious. While classroom training, seminars, and conferences have dominated in years past, online learning solutions are growing in popularity and presenting unique advantages that companies should consider.

--The on-demand difference

Learning isn’t a one-and-done experience. In today’s fast-changing tech environment, going to a week-long seminar once a year will be insufficient. Think back to what was trending in your field last year. Is it the same thing your teams need to succeed right now?

--The Pluralsight solution

As your industry and business model evolve, you need a learning solution that helps you deliver innovation on time and on budget. Businesses and individuals worldwide trust Pluralsight's technology learning platform to achieve their business goals.

What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

Pluralsight skills offers a lot of different topics for learning. I focus mostly on .NET-related technologies and it's surprisingly up to date. The instructors are, for the most part, good. I get through a course and feel like I've learned quite a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

The subtitles can be really bad, especially if the speaker has a strong accent. A couple classes I've taken, the subtitles are downright laughable. There's also no way for me to "reset" progress. If I started a course a few months back and never finished, all of the progress remains and I don't always know what I've completed a second time or not.

Also, not all of the courses are updated all the time. Sometimes, they're updated for a new version of .NET, but the title of the course still includes the old version of .NET, so you don't know if it's updated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

When something new from Microsoft .NET is released, I can USUALLY count on Pluralsight to have a good course on that topic that isn't a waste of my time. It's convenient to download to my phone and watch it on the go as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

I've been using the Pluralsight Skills web app for a while now, and there are aspects of it that I truly appreciate. One of the key features that stands out to me is the organization of courses into paths, each containing several related courses. This setup provides a structured learning experience, guiding users through a cohesive curriculum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

While the courses themselves are well-made and informative, I find myself missing a crucial component: practical application. While the videos offer valuable insights and explanations, learning solely through passive consumption isn't the most efficient method for me. I believe that true mastery comes from applying newly acquired knowledge in practical projects or through code examples.

In an ideal learning environment, I would love to see more emphasis on hands-on exercises, coding challenges, or real-world projects integrated into the platform. This would not only reinforce the concepts taught in the videos but also provide a more engaging and interactive learning experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

Access to Pluralsight was provided by my company as a means for me to improve my technical skills. While this initiative has certainly helped broaden my understanding and provided valuable theoretical knowledge across various technologies, it falls short in terms of directly translating that knowledge into practical application within my job role.

I find myself wishing for more opportunities to bridge the gap between theory and practice. While the platform excels in delivering educational content, the absence of practical application within the context of my specific job responsibilities limits its effectiveness in directly impacting my day-to-day tasks.

What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

Actual skill management works ok. You can see teams progress and there quite a good choice of courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

Subscription management is total nightmare. There is no way to update your settings and licenses when team and needs change. We

After number of failed attempts to fix this I decided to switch to Udemy. But that was the hardest thing of all. There is no way to cancel your subscription in portal and only way to unsubscribe is through the support. And that is impossible because they respond only with automated messages and nobody takes responsibility of the matter. It took tons of emails to finally get a receipt the subscription was cancelled.

And still, we were charged 2 years after cancellation - since there is no way to remove your credit card either. It has been a total nightmare to get rid of Pluralsight.

Use free trials but I strongly advice not to leave your credit card there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

The variety of the content which covers many of the tech tools and how the courses are project based so you learn application of the tools and not just theory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

It would be nice if the courses could be available as transcribed lessons, not transcription of the videos but actual lessons in text form with the exercises on your own coding playground because not all students learn well by listening to someone on a voiceover. This leads to some fo the courses taking longer than they should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

On-hand upskilling course while you are working, if you need developers to learn a new tool, system or language then pluralsight allows you to do that quickly and at a reasonablle cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

The thing I like about Pluralsight is the huge Cloud library of up-to-date Tech Content for getting your Level 1 or Level 10 knowledge of Cloud technologies. There are some great authors on the platform that you can also follow and additional insights into the tech being used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

Now that both Pluralsight and ACloud Guru are owned by the same company, and I have both subscriptions, I don't like that I have to pay for both, I wish this would change and there is just the one subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
