"Leightweight high quality learning"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

I find it easy to initially start up on (intuitive), easy to find time for (small amounts of work is needed), easy to follow-up on (the visuel course progression is really good), easy to learn from (I personally like that learning is very much based on good quality illustrations).

In general it is made easy to overcome to do small progress and the "streak feature" also help you continue to do progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

Actually there is not much that I dislike. If I am forced to find something negative I would mention:

1) That the heavy use of illustrations somehow make me think that the learning is not that "deep" (which is probably not true)

2) The evaluation of your failures in a test is very forgiving (which can make you think that everyone will "pass the exam"...and that can devaluate the certificate a bit)

3) When I wanted to add a certificate to my LinkedIn profile I had some trouble – I was asked to fill in a new job role instead of just adding this course to my profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best UX apps on the market!"
5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

I have been using UXcel for a number of months now and I love how everything is broken down into different learning paths. You can take up different career paths which group lessons, try out out assessments to see where your knolwedge level is at and test your skilss with fun exercises. I use this app daily for micro learning as the lessons they offer are in bite sized chunks so you can do it all on your travels! It has been easy to implement my learning to my case studies and also practice my skills with design broefs they offer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

I have not really found anything i dislikes with the app. More or less just tweaks here and there they could add to enhance the experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I love refreshing my knowledge and adding to it using Uxcel, specially Uxcel Go App."
5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

Uxcel's interactive approach of courses is really engaging (micro-interactions sounds are dope) but what makes Uxcel really cool is the Uxcel Go mobile app as you can easily use and implement and interact anytime anywhere, i usually use it in transportation using that time to help myself to always refresh my knowledge in UX or adding new points to it.

The competition theme of the app as having leaderboard helps you to learn more and take more courses, scoring worldwide and support emails that always encourage you to do more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

Maybe Uxcel is a bit expensive in specific regions because of currency exchange rate, but you know it's worth it after subscriping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uxcel stands out for its engaging, gamified approach to UX/UI design education. The platform transforms learning into an interactive experience, breaking down complex design concepts into digestible, fun challenges. This method not only makes the material more accessible but also keeps learners motivated and eager to progress.

"Great place to learn UX for a fair price"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

The subscription model allows me to participate in different courses without committing too much. Thanks to it, I gained a few certificates within a month. I used it daily for a month.

I like the fact that there are experts who assess your projects. They seem to do it daily.

The web app and mobile app run smoothly. You start a course and can follow it. I also like the fact that I can track the progress of each course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

The mobile app's features are limited. For example, you can't go to the career path from it and pick another course from the career path; this can only be done via the web app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Knowledge of product design, gamified!"
4/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

I have always enjoyed the concenpt of gamification in learning, the best example of which would be Doulingo. Uxel, taking lots of cues from D, is approching leaning design in the same way.

I have tried a lot of platforms that offer similar courses, but here even refreshing your existing knowledge is made into a fun and short activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

When it comes to clarity, there are a few rough edges. I can think of a few questions that could benefit from rewriting in a clearer manner. I think, the goal here is not to trick you. This is not a IQ test, so the clearer the quesitons/answer the better you have the chance to learn from them.

I can say the same thing about the concept of 'design score' as a quantitative score out of 100 is meaningless. Something akin to a 'badge' would have been more enlightening about a designer's capabilities e.g. 'aspiring UI designer' or 'seasoned user researcher' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use, great for theory knowledge."
4/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

I’ve been using Uxcel for about a year, and it’s been a pretty solid experience. If you’re looking to boost your understanding of UX Design theory, it's worth the paid plan. The courses are approachable for all types of learners, so whether you’re new to the field or you’re looking to brush up on some skills, you can still get something out of this. Uxcel is good at gamifying learning (it's a UX site, go figure!) and keeping lessons to bite sized content that can be consumed on the daily to keep you sharp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

If you're an education nut like me, you'll notice that most of the quiz questions use image comparisons A and B and ask you which applies to the correct term or type of design. Even knowing nothing about the subject, I could theoretically skip learning the content and pass the quiz by memorizing the images. In fairness, Uxcel has a similar learning model to Duolingo wherein you're here to learn, and there's no true failing; so I'm assuming most people won't do this on purpose. I only mention it because it calls *some* credibility of their certifications into question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My UX Skills Took Off with Uxcel’s Fun, Easy Lessons"
5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

Uxcel has been a game-changer for me in learning UX design! The lessons are so engaging and easy to fit into my daily routine. I love how they break down complex ideas into something you can actually enjoy working through. It’s not just about learning—it’s about growing as a designer in a way that feels natural and fun. Plus, you get to build your portfolio, earn certifications, and even get noticed by companies. Uxcel makes the whole process of leveling up your skills feel exciting and totally within reach! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

Honestly, there’s not much to dislike about Uxcel. It’s a fantastic platform for learning UX design. If I had to point out something, I’d say I wish there were more active mentors who could engage more deeply with reviewing submitted projects. It would be great to get even more personalized feedback to help refine our skills. But overall, Uxcel is doing an amazing job! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great ecosystem for learning UX design!"
5/5
What do you like best about Uxcel?

I run a 4-person team at a UX and web design consultancy. Our team has strengthened our core knowledge base and business offerings in design by using Uxcel.

We find the scaffolded learning environment highly accessible, whether we are doing a longer-format area course together or breaking off into individual lessons and exercises.

The course content is relevant and fresh by today’s standards in the design industry. We appreciate the additional learning tips after each knowledge test. Footnote citations and links are great for further learning and reading.

It is rewarding to see each of our areas of expertise grow in strength and capability along the skill graph. Our team has benefitted from learning areas outside each of our core areas of design knowledge. Our UX writer, for example, has strengthened his visual design and prototyping skills in software he had no prior experience using. Our product manager has gained a greater understanding of UX research, psychology, and the importance of those areas in product design.

Uxcel is a great learning platform that doesn’t feel overwhelming or difficult. You can just jump right in and start learning design tidbits on the go whenever you are or whenever you have 5 minutes. The mobile app is excellent and picks up right where you left off on the browser. Seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uxcel?

There is not much I dislike about this learning platform tool. It’s constantly evolving with new content and relevant features that put the design learner in the front center seat. I only have recommendations and I often see those implemented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
