Pros

“Udemy also provided us with a consultant that inform us of updates, curate a curriculum that fit our organisation , check out assessments and ensure a seamless and fruitful learning experience.”

“The ability to track employee learning progress is also a valuable feature for management.”

Ajaz A.

Data Engineer

“I created and published several courses on Udemy and, as expected, went through the normal back-and-forth during the review process to ensure everything met their requirements.”

Cons

“Based on our current experience, we cannot recommend LearnDash to businesses that rely on their LMS for commercial operations.”

“What makes this even more disappointing is the lack of proactive communication.”

Cons

“I have to wait for days and all I get is unpersonal, repetitive and canned replies that restate the same incorrect verbiage, that doesn't even address the evidence I’ve shared or suggest a resolution.”
MC

Mark C.

Founder and CEO

“The most frustrating aspect has been Udemy’s lack of flexibility and understanding. When we reached out to discuss options for reducing our license count and adjusting our billing cycle, we were met with rigidity and indifference. Despite explaining our financial hardship, we were threatened with third-party collections for a recent unpaid bill—adding unnecessary stress during an already challenging time.”
TL

Tom L.

CEO

“The offerings for certain areas, i.e. certain technical skills such as TCL scripting, are much more limited when compared to others (i.e. Perl). When requesting new courses, most were denied.”
