What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

My client - a regional higher education institution - was coming from another solution that was not built for their operations. After some market research, we found Thinkific and began implementation. We were thrilled with their level of support for user migration, content migration, self-service options, and flexibility of the platform which helped us cater to our users better than ever before. The basic analytics that comes out-of-the-box are an enormous help. The in-house payment solution takes all the worry about taxes and revenue realization for each sale. My client is very happy about what this solution brings! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

The contract structure was a bit confusing, and we had to negotiate hard to get basic support in our migration efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Well, I'll attribute it to the exciting feature of the Thinkific extension that's present in the Plus LMS. Especially the Learning Path feature, it really made it very easy for me to build different course modules into a single bundle and making each course module a prerequisite to the next one before a learner is able to acquire certificate. And i found myself frequently using this feature to build more course bundles with ease. It's really the ease of implementation for me.

Big ups to the Thinkific Team for thinking out of the box to come up with this fantastic solution.

And you're also doing well in terms of customer support efforts, because the support staffs are usually just an email away. I remember when I strugling to add some file types to my course, then I reach out and the support I got was topnortch. It's also the ease of integration of different file types into the courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

There's no inbuilt adequate information or guide on how to navigate most of these features.

More can be done in this regard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Saving a huge amount of time an instructional and eLearning developer like me have to spent putting all the individually courses I've developed together as a bundle for users to take all at a go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

Although thinkific plus is excellent small businesses cannot afford its little over prices. Better analytics are possible and coding expertise is required for design customisation. Workaround are necessary for some integrations which can be inconvenient Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

The issue of creating scalable courses is resolved by Thinkific which offer a user-friendly platform with multi-site managements and customizable brandings.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Customer support is incredibly helpful. While the platform itself is very easy to use, whenever we dream up something that is not a common use within Thinkific the support team is always there to help us find a solution. Every person we have encountered is willing to help or seek out a solution from someone else on their team. The integrations with other developers and with other platforms have advanced greatly and we love how easy it makes our job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

While being a Plus customer, we have seen many improvements. But we would love to see the course player function more natively in a mobile browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ahead of giving birth, parents benefit tremendously from taking a prenatal class or classes. Since COVID shutdowns, in-person class participation has dropped significantly and has not resumed pre-pandemic attendance. With Thinkific we are able to provide a full spectrum of prenatal and birth classes on a subscription basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

I like the way the backoffice is organized. We work for a lot of different clients with their own look & feel and needs. We also work with multiple team members in the same backoffice, a clear process is needed here. Luckily thinkific made it easy to group all the related assets to a certain client via the 'category' option. Building courses in this tool feels very intuitive by simply using the courses & their learning activities. I feel like there are enough learning activities for us to do the job. We mostly use the text, download & video lesson. Launching modules goes via the drip schedule which makes launching modules automatic from now on.

Thinkific also has a nice e- commerce feature. It makes it easy to sell the courses & the login creation.

This LMS system was easy to learn, even for our non-digital colleauges. It is helpful that you can assign certain roles to users. We have different teams working in Thinkific. Based on the tasks they have to do, we give them a certain role in Thinkific. This was helpful to not confuse the colleague with an overload of projects they are not involved in & to keep a clean backoffice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

In the beginning there was a learning curve. Header & footer are domain based, which is a bit unhandy for us since we build platforms for different clients. But ok, not a big deal, there are other ways to customize your platform.

We have some specific cases when adding certain role to users (for example externals who want to check a course that is not ready yet). We miss some AI features.

There is not much data you can track: f.e: how many time did a participant spend on this page, when do they usually log in? I feel like the 'analysis' part can still improve.

We don't use the 'theme library' a lot since we have different clients in 1 backoffice. 1 change here would impact all our projects (for different clients). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the past we worked with different LMS systems which had a very confusing backoffice. Thinkific helps the team in not having so many headaches of finding your courses in the backoffice. It is really intuitive & structured backoffice. Which results in a more efficient way of working. Building in Thinkific goes really fast & looks very dynamic in a fast way. Which was a struggle we had when working in other LMS systems. The names of the learning activities speak for itself & do what they are expected to do. The download lesson has for example a strucuted look & feel. This is something we had to hard code in other LMS systems In Thinkific they are premade. With other LMS systems, it was so easy to make mistakes & break things. The way Thinkific has been set up, it prevents non-digital colleagues from easily breaking things.

In the past we did not have an option to sell courses online. Login creation & sending invoices were something manual to be done. Thinkific helped to automatize these processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Thinkific has everything you need in a Learning Management System or Learning Business Solution. It has tools and integrations for small or enterprise businesses.

I like the fact you can build end to end funnels and marketing campaigns to promote and sell your content. All authoring tools are easy and you can get immediate feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

From an enterprise solution, I think there are parts of the API that could be improved and a more robust user administration to log in as a specific user to help troubleshoot their experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

The first problem they were solving for us was the ability to purchase directly from the education platform with their own stripe integration. For both subscriptions and transactional products. Any updates, coupons, promotions, or offers were quickly implemented and updated.

They solved a problem of having to support different marketing, education, support, and operations platforms. With a simplified CRM and Thinkific, we were able to have a significant cost savings with no drop off in quality and experience for the user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Honestly i think Thinkbifte Plus is a lifesaver it’s like having an extra set of hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

While Thinkbifte Plus is fantastic overall, there are a few minor quirks. For example, some of the more advanced features can feel a bit overwhelming at first, and it took us some time to fully explore and utilize them. Additionally, while the customer support is great, there were a couple of instances where response times were slower than expected during peak hours. These are small issues, though, and they don’t take away from the overall value of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thinkific Plus makes it easier to organize and deliver training content without a ton of manual work. It saves us time, keeps everything in one place, and gives learners a smooth experience, which helps us focus more on improving the actual content Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Good interface which can be customized to your needs. The videos load well and the setup is straightforward. Support is also quick to respond when I have a question. The implementation team are also responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

The user management is only on the reporting level, and not on the assignment level.

Some of the features are not native to the platform, rather integrations with other tools, making it feel a little piecemeal sometimes. It works well for external academies and enablement, less so for internal training. The authoring of courses is also complicated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Thinkific Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Giving me an easy way to make our academy accessible to external partners, and provide them the training they need. It also allows us to create content in a branded format Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Thinkific Plus?

Thinkific Plus has been a great LMS and provides our students with a modernized user interface. Our clientele is made up of students who may have anxiety about their coursework. Using Thinkific allows our students to focus on their actual coursework rather than have any concerns about technical issues. We routinely receive positive feedback from students that our platform is "easy to use." We upgraded to Plus and have appreciated the improved customer service we receive as a result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific Plus?

Some of the integrations don't work together. For example, we can't use a SCORM file and outside exam software together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
