What do you like best? Nothing stands out about it beyond what other competitors are offering. The implementation agent was great.
What do you dislike? Our salesperson misled us about included features. Administrative functions are poorly or wrongly labeled, a number of workarounds were created by Thinkific to make up for missing features including requiring us to use complicated coding fixes for what should be drag and drop functions. And lastly, they took 4K for 2 months of service when the last 3/4 of the 2nd month were spent on our dispute and getting our account cancelled. They were happy to take our money even though they didn't deliver.

What do you like best? Thinkific provides an efficient structure for compliance training, certification, and professional development. The ability to issue certificates upon completion is especially useful for our industry.

What do you like best? One of the best things about Thinkific is how easy it is to customize the look and feel of the learning site. With flexible branding options, it’s simple to create a seamless experience that matches our company identity. The ability to host a variety of content types, from video lectures to interactive assignments, adds great value for both creators and learners.
What do you dislike? Reporting is functional but not as in-depth as we would like. While you can see student progress and completion rates, advanced analytics or detailed learner behavior insights are limited. For organizations that rely heavily on data-driven decision-making, additional reporting features would be useful.

What do you like best? Thinkific enables nonprofits, schools, and businesses to transition into digital learning without heavy technical requirements. Bulk student enrollment, group reporting, and multi-instructor support make it easy for organizations to operate at scale.
What do you dislike? While it’s affordable for small to mid-sized teams, scaling up with advanced features like API access may require higher-tier plans. A more flexible enterprise pricing model would be beneficial.

What do you like best? Beyond just hosting courses, Thinkific makes it possible to create membership models where learners pay for ongoing access to content. This flexibility allows educators to design recurring revenue streams and engage learners with fresh material over time.
What do you dislike? While branding basics are available, more design freedom would help creators build sites that feel truly unique and differentiated from others using the platform.

What do you like best? We've been very happy so far. The gamification features and advanced automation tools are a welcome addition, helping keep learners motivated and engaged throughout their courses.
What do you dislike? After a new release, there can occasionally be small bugs or quirks that need ironing out. While these are usually fixed quickly, it can disrupt workflows if you’re relying heavily on the new features.

What do you like best? Thinkific shines as a platform for scaling online training businesses. The ability to manage multiple courses, drip content over time, and integrate with other business systems has been a huge benefit. Their support team is responsive and provides clear, practical solutions. Payments and student enrollment are seamless, making it easy to run a course business globally.
What do you dislike? The community-building options are basic. Although discussion forums are available, they don’t feel as engaging as dedicated community platforms. It would be great to have more tools built into Thinkific that foster deeper interaction among learners and keep them engaged outside of course content.
