What do you like best? The promises of sale were great, having managed to publish my application on the stores in just one month.
What do you dislike? The Android version of my application did not work for more than two months. As for the iPhone version, I called for it from the end of May 2024 and for more than six months. I never saw it. Gurucan finally made me an offer in December 2024 to migrate to their new platform with the promise that all my concerns would be resolved within a few weeks. I never knew what “a few weeks” meant. I canceled my subscription and recommend that everyone run away from this company.

What do you like best? Gurucan is a versatile tool. In my case it lets me present an archive of video content (hosted on Vimeo) to users in the form of a mobile app. Quite straightforward to set up.
What do you dislike? Customer service is not always responsive when there are issues. Slow to update when there are new versions of the operating systems (currently not usable on Android 12 or 13) and no info about timescale for this update.

What do you like best? All in one platform. Saves paying for multiple software solutions. I like that there is a landing page builder, funnel integrations with email, as well as a webinar solution and app.
What do you dislike? UI at times could be improved - it all works, but sometimes after I saved and press preview, things don't appear as I expect. This may be a learning curve issue?

What do you like best? Building the course content is easy, but in particular I like the potential it has, with the email marketing and the webinar options, which still need to be polished up at the moment, but will be great once they're done with them.
What do you dislike? They have had a problem with uploading video for over a month now at this writing. I have contacted support and get the very dismissive "we're working on it" for over a month now with no workaround or alternative feature provided. There has been no urgency to get this problem fixed. Meanwhile, other features are being implemented and this core feature has been simply ignored.

What do you like best? Unexpected features not normally found in learning management systems including challenges, webinars, and mobile ready. Beautiful and modern interface.
What do you dislike? User onboarding could be improved. A guided experience to take the user step-by-step to create their first course or challenge would be helpful in getting the user acclimated to the software.

What do you like best? The software offer a great flexibility when it comes to creating content for courses. It allow to easily create courses and programs with interactive content for users/students.
What do you dislike? The UI, but that is personal preferences. However, in the general perspective, I think that it could be more flexible, intuitive and responsive.

What do you like best? The ability to create a mobile learning app for my on-the-go community is a game-changer. I'm excited to check out the challenges and webinar function as well!
What do you dislike? There are a lot of options and it's a little overwhelming to begin. I think as I go along this will get easier! It also wasn't extremely clear with customer service what was included in the AppSumo deal. A bit of conflicting information.

What do you like best? Trying to set up an Ecorse platform can be time-consuming and very expensive. Not to mention very frustrating to find the right company to start with. That’s why guru can simplify the process, and also allows you to illuminate other tools such as your CRM and your mailing list since it’s all built into this program.
What do you dislike? I think some of the features can tend to be a little complex, so if they were able to simplify that user interface I think that would help out a lot.

What do you like best? I have attempted to use many different LMS in the past and as a tech dinosaur, found myself overwhelmed and swamped by the complexity of the setting up my own online courses with all the necessary bells and whistles to make it attractive to premium customers. Now with gurucan, I can do it easily and effortlessly without the need of hiring a tech expert to do it for me. The tools is like having multiple tools in 1 and I don't need to learn different tools and functions of different apps
What do you dislike? I wish there is a way to massively increase the emails allowed but for now, what i have is sufficient.
