## Reviews

### "Top course builder that is simple to use yet offer complex functionality for individualized course building" — 5.0/5

> **Rachael** | *January 29, 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Still a go-to course builder that remains one of the best offering an even simpler interface for designing courses with recent updates as well as more opportunities for creating an immersive and communicative experience for everyone participating in a course. Mobile updates have also allowed for greater efficiency as so many more users are utilizing mobile phones more now so these have been critical changes that have kept it in the top tier for course builders.
> 
> **Cons**: The interface has greatly improved so now I would say just continuing to add more advanced features and functions that are easy to select are next areas of improvements I would like to see.
> 
> A great experience overall as it is one of the simplest course builder platforms that has so many options for customizability yet is easy to navigate. I also love the changes and improvements with management course monetary success overall and over a period of time.

### "Thinkific is a fantastic online learning platform" — 5.0/5

> **Linda** | *August 14, 2019* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Versatile, well organized, easy to learn.&#10;Free until you get going.
> 
> **Cons**: - Terrible discussion forum (we wish they would link up with website tool box).&#10;- Their pricing plans have changed in ways that don't work well for us and they have not been responsive to our feedback.
> 
> We are growing into an international learning community with the help of Thinkific.

### "Truth For all" — 5.0/5

> **Avril** | *December 13, 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One of the things I like is that I don’t have to know anything about coding for me to be able to make a website.
> 
> **Cons**: If I had to choose one it would be that the free option isn’t available. It gave me more options when creating courses.
> 
> There is a bit of reading and experimentation necessary. However it’s pretty intuitive to use once you have minimal editing skills.

### "Covers the basics" — 3.0/5

> **French** | *October 10, 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It gets the job done if your needs are basic. It’s straightforward to use and handles core functions like organizing content, course creation and managing users, but it doesn’t go much beyond that - in my case.
> 
> **Cons**: As our needs evolved, Thinkific just couldn’t keep up. It’s fine for basic course delivery, but we eventually needed more flexibility and functionality than the platform could offer — which is why we decided to move on.
> 
> Overall, it was a decent experience. Thinkific worked well when our needs were fairly simple — it’s reliable for basic course setup and delivery. But as things grew and we needed more advanced features and flexibility, it became clear that it wasn’t the right long-term fit for us.

### "Excellent Value and Superb Support for Training Providers" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *November 8, 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Thinkific delivers exceptional value for training providers. The platform is intuitive, reliable, and visually clean — ideal for building structured, professional courses. Their customer support team is one of the best I’ve experienced: fast, friendly, and genuinely proactive in solving issues. Uploading, organizing, and managing content feels seamless once you get used to the flow.
> 
> **Cons**: Some AI-powered enhancements could make course creation faster, especially when migrating or duplicating content across courses. The new AI landing page builder is visually nice but still limited in customization compared to the classic editor. A few automation options (like quiz imports or batch updates) would be great additions for power users.
> 
> ’ve been using Thinkific to host a professional training program for the financial certification industry. The experience has been smooth and rewarding. The platform’s structure helps maintain a high-quality learning flow, and the flexibility to integrate videos, quizzes, and marketing elements makes it suitable for both institutional and individual learners. Overall, it’s a strong, dependable platform that continues to evolve with user feedback.
