"My personal experience and satisfaction with Pluralsight’s learning platform"
5/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

The standout feature of the platform is its extensive and thorough course library, over 7,000 courses. It offers the freedom to learn without limits. The goal-oriented learning paths and skill assessments are perfectly aligned with my objectives. The certification preparation, complemented by professional mock exams from third-party applications, is incredibly beneficial. In essence, Pluralsight has become a household in my lifelong learning journey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight?

I'm disappointed of removing the note-taking feature during training sessions. This feature was quite useful for reference. Unfortunately, they haven't introduced an improved feature or alternative yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Service - for most things"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

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?

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.

"Pluralsight not for me"
1.5/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

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?

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.

"Subscription nightmare"
0/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

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?

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.

Response from Carli Berntson of Pluralsight

Hi Juha, I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you encountered with your subscription and subsequent cancellation process. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We are actively working to improve our subscription management system to offer a smoother experience. Were you able to get things cancelled in full?

If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to our support team, and we will assist you promptly. Thank you!

"A upskilling goldmine, especially for training interns and upskilling higher level developers"
4/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

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?

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.

"Pluralsight Review"
5/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

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?

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.

"Great source for technical knowledge"
4/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

Pluralsight is a great has a source for learning new material in terms of technical knowledge. It provides a lot of examples and easy to follow modules that allow you to grasp information at your own pace. If you do the material and follow along closely you should be able to feel confident in your knowledge of the topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight?

The issues I have are mainly to do with course material not being available through the cell phone app and the cell phone app doesn't always store the course videos reliably for when you don't have internet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for the Continuous Learner"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Pluralsight?

The skill assessments help to guide you to the right content, and effectively highlight the subjects where you should focus your efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight?

The content typically lacks testing and challenges that would help to reinforce knowledge as you are learning. That reinforcement is largely left up to the learner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
