Soapbox Reviews

This product made me think of trainings in a new way. I loved all the options for different activities to work with getting information using a variety of learning modalities. decreased my training planning time by more than half plus made them much more organized and engaging.

The price was inhibitive for my small government funded program.

Thank you so much for this feedback! Our goal is to help people think in a different way! We're sorry the price was prohibitive. At the beginning of the COVID pandemic we dropped the price so maybe it is worth a second look?

The software is initiative, creative and flexible. The strengths of the product lay in the basics that's it's designed to be useful and move your company forward, not just an app you use sometimes.

Any feature I've missed had been adapted and added in updates. The team behind it is constantly working on improvements.

Christopher, thank you for your kind words!

We work with El to provide training and customer on boarding support and they have great experience in this area. El also provides the tools and resources to deliver the necessary courses and programs that they support.

There really isn't anything negative to note

Thanks for your feedback! Both EL (Endurance Learning) and Soapbox strive to provide the best possible tools and resource for training. We're happy to hear that it is has been a positive experience.

There are so many things to like about Soapbox. On my team we have people with varying levels of experience in instructional design, and Soapbox makes it easy for all of us to use it to whatever extent we want. For some more experienced people, we may only use it for laying the foundation and getting ideas, but for less experienced people it may be used as the single source for creating learning sessions. I love that it factors in all of the elements of the session like the time and delivery method, and it's super helpful for creating learning objectives.

My only criticism would be the lack of options for alternate activities. In my most recent Soapbox project, I didn't love the initial idea for an activity, and there were only 3 or 4 options for alternatives.

It is wonderful to hear that people of varying skill levels are using Soapbox successfully. We're always adding new activities so I hope that you'll start to see more alternative activities that work for your presentations.

This software makes us much more productive and I would recommend it.

I would encourage you to continue developing additional features.

Thanks for the feedback! I hope our roadmap doesn't disappoint!

unable to select activities 'a la carte'

We're so happy we made you look good to your boss! :-) Our goal is to make every person who uses Soapbox better at their job!

Ease of use and the ones that were created already - Zoom etc. Made it easier to see the big picture of how the software could function.

With working in Healthcare IT during pandemic have not had the time to use this software to its fullest. Very sad on my part but no time this past year.

I'm sorry you haven't had time to use it. Let us know if there is anything we can do to support you!

I love the organizational ability it gives me. Sometimes my thoughts get all mixed up and being able to organize my presentation is so helpful! I also love that it gives me strategies and activities.

I am in the early childhood field and sometimes it was a little hard to adapt activities to people in my audiences.

It is great to hear about how Soapbox is helping. Our goal is to always help people find a faster, more clear path to training sessions. Early childhood educators are some of our most dedicated customers and we hope we can continue to refine the content to make it even more valuable to you.

Ease of use, creativity. There was so much information that is available, and I can pick and choose what I like.

Lots of information to fill out prior to the slides/ideas population occurs.

Thank you so much for the feedback! We agree that Soapbox is one of a kind. We are always trying to make it easier to get to the end result of having a great presentation and will keep working to make that process go even faster.

I tremendously appreciated the numerous new ideas that Soapbox gave me for making my training more interactive. They took my learning objectives and offered activities that supported, or could be easily adapted to support them.

At the time I used the trial, the system was not yet set up for online delivery. Looking forward to trying it again soon now that they do. Also, I couldn't refresh or reload an activity option that I accidentally deleted.

We're so excited to get you back into Soapbox to see all the updates we made!
