También me parece ideal que se pueda personalizar el branding. Cons Precios demasiado elevados considerando a los creadores de curso que inician. También creo que podrían mejorar las posibilidades de diseño de las landing pages e integraciones de pago más variadas (por ejemplo, tener integración con pasarelas de pago de LATAM) Review Source Luciano Z. ChatBot and automation consultant Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Very useful and streamlined, but could cost less." February 11, 2022 3.0 Satisfactory overall experience, both on the faculty side and on the student side who finds the courses purchased and consults them quickly and intuitively. Too bad about the pricing model which then turned me away from this solution. Pros The user interface is well structured and creating your own courses goes very smoothly. The ability to integrate with external platforms is valuable and very useful. Cons I find Teachable's pricing to be questionable and, in any case, quite complicated. The per-transaction fees in the Basic plan, for example, of 5% don't seem justifiable to me while paying $39/mo for the service. Also the choice of gateways and payment methods has confused me several times. Review Source EV Erica V. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Decent but clunky" June 29, 2021 3.0 it's served my basic needs and it takes stress off my plate but as a paid platform it leaves much to be desired. Pros I like that we can design our own school how we want and there is a lot of space available for file storage. Cons It's not very streamlined - both as a school owner and as a client I have had issues with clunkiness and confusion. Not the most intuitive. Review Source JD Jeffrey D. Design Director Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Was good until they forced Professional Plan" September 30, 2021 3.0 Pros It is easy to set up and can save lots of time versus building a WordPress LMS. And it does give a good amount of functionality Cons The biggest con was the support. When ever reporting bugs they always the same response "Its a browser issue" and blaming the browser for everything is irresponsible. But the real big con is they can not be trusted. When I signed up the basic plan included Zapier connection which is important to sale course from personal websites. But then, without notice, they changed and only allowed Zapier integration with Professional plans.I didn't find out until new students couldn't access their course. Teachable support didn't even know what happened when I contacted to say the integration stopped. This is a big reason why I could never recommend Teachable in fact, I would warn others and go with another solution because they can't be trusted. Who knows the next change they make and how that will effect other's businesses. Reason for choosing Teachable Simpler and time effective solution. Review Source Chet N. President & CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Very basic tool" January 27, 2023 3.0 Pros Easy and works out of the box and has its own search for all courses. Cons It’s a bit too basic for my level. But for most works well. Review Source SE Stefanos E. Cloud consultant Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Teachable review" December 21, 2020 4.0 Teachable was one of the first online learning platforms which I got introduced to. I am now using it for creating courses of folk and traditional dances and distribute these courses to people all over the world. Pros Teachable provides sufficient course creation, marketing and analytics tools even in its free pricing plan. It also allows for full branding of the online course pages by utilizing custom HTML/CSS. Cons Since this is a hosted service, it is good to know that Teachable is managing everything for the creator but at the same time there is not much transparency as to which and how many resources (server CPU power, memory, network bandwidth, CDN) are being utilized. In my opinion, if this information was included in each pricing plan, the creators would be able to better match their course creation requirements with actual hardware resource levels.

Now that they're adding features comparable with more premium tools - like in affiliate management and customizable checkout pages, it's great to have everything in one spot. Cons Its all-in-one nature does mean that sometimes you have a few things - like instant payouts - that are only on the largest plan/more expensive than with a niche tool's plan, but then you'd need to use multiple niche tools. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Program Director Arts and Crafts Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great platform, I wish there was a couple of extra features" July 27, 2019 5.0 Pros Teachable really can help new teachers who would like to start selling their lessons, as they provide a great free plan. After someone start earning some money can upgrade to the next plans, getting the advantage of great extra features. I hope that they won't change their free plan with adding more limitations, as many other services have done in the past. Cons I don't like the fact that many features are available only via the Zippier integration. That means, you need an extra tool to learn and you need am extra service to pay every month. At least, teachable should be able to let professionals create 2-3 upsell options, and more importantly to give the the ability to create membership plans for their courses, with a trial period that automatically would upgrade to the standard pricing plan. Now someone needs to duplicate the course, create two separate pricing plans, integrate with Zapier and create a route where when someone pass the trial period, zappier will delete him from one source and then enrolling him to the other. Too complicated. Review Source Mariah A. Graphic Deigner Design Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The easiest, most streamlined online course platform out there." April 7, 2018 5.0 I'm able to offer two online courses for my blog audience and create a new revenue stream for my business. Pros I love that Teachable handles all of the online payments, accepts all major credit cards, and handles any taxes necessary. I also love that they not only offer a platform to host your sites, but also include sales pages, check out pages, and thank you pages. Cons I wish some of the reporting was easier to find and understand. It can be pretty difficult to break down income streams within the program. It can also be difficult to maneuver the backend of the site in general. I always struggle to find how to change preset text, as well as find more information about my students (like who completed the course and when, etc). Review Source BM Baidhurya M. Online Course Consultant E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The most beginner friendly online course platform" March 6, 2019 4.0 Pros Teachable offers all the essential features one needs to create and deliver an online course. The platform is super easy to use and it allows you to get started quickly. The pricing is beginner friendly and they even have a free plan. Cons Teachable's website building capabilities are really limited at this point. So, unlike their competitors, they don't offer site themes and the page builder has limited customization options as well. Review Source Akhilesh K. Proprietor Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It's a good alternative to marketplace platforms like Udemy" February 15, 2018 4.0 Pros Offers a free plan to try the basic features . The interface is very intuitive and with supporting docs and responsive customer support , the learning curve is not steep at all . The course making interface is simple drag and drop editor and very easy to use . The aesthetic look of the front end can be made as good as your creativity can take you . Cons The content types that can be added are files , videos , quizzes , etc . Just like Udemy by and large . Nothing built on authoring tools like say, articulate can be hosted here . That's a big let down . Review Source Kyle S. Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Teachable Is Great!" May 20, 2016 5.0 I've tried out Ruzuku, Thinkific, Kajabi (Abnormally expensive), and a ZippyCourses, along with a couple more wordpress plugins. Teachable is hands down THE BEST platform I've found (and it's oddly cheaper). The team is great, agile, and when you join you become part of the teachable community, that is ALWAYS there for you. It's not just the software that makes Teachable so great, but the connections and information you get as well. They work with a huge network of incredible influencers and entrepreneurs that I've personally networked with and now worked with, and their information is top notch. Pros Incredible customer service, drip content, beautiful platform, awesome reporting, great editing features, and a bunch of integrations. Cons Ankur sometimes takes a while to get back to you. But he IS the CEO. I'm surprised he even answers our questions. Review Source AM Antoinette M. Admin and Operations Manager Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Teachable is easy to set up and easy to use" June 21, 2022 5.0 Overall easiest to set up and worth most for the money. Pros Teachable is relatively easy to use both for setting up online courses and onboarding new team members. Cons Some features relating to building the website have bugs which sometimes take time to resolve. Alternatives considered [Kajabi](https://www.capterra.com/p/154682/Kajabi/) Reason for choosing Teachable Ease of set up and value for money. Review Source JT Jennifer T. owner Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Teachable is a great product" June 16, 2023 5.0 Pros I love that they allowed me a free account while I created course content. Cons I only left to move to a platform with both CMS and LMS. BIG mistake. Reason for choosing Teachable Yes Review Source rK robin K. owner Restaurants Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Never buy this product" February 24, 2021 2.0 Pretty bad, the software is fine, but if you have any problems with your account, payouts, software glitches or anything really they are 90% of the time unhelpful. It's like they don't care that you are a customer that's paying for their product. Frequently, I'll be in the middle of troubleshooting a problem by email with them and they'll just stop responding. DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE or you will lose your mind like I have. Also if you are an international company that doesn't work in USD, they aren't really set up to deal with other currencies well. I've set up 6 courses on teachables, but I'm going to move them all to Thinkific this year. Pros It was pretty easy to set up your course, add video etc. I liked the courses on marketing/etc that they sent out weekly to join for free. Cons Not very customizable, customer experience is just okay. Many were confused as to how to login etc initially. No autosave of your work, I lost hours to a system glitch where you press enter and it just deletes your course text and there's no autosave to backup to.

It's also pretty affordable overall. Pros There's a lot of things to like about Teachable. You can host your content, have it locked for only paid customers, and lots of reporting tools to see how your students are doing. There's plenty of integrations as well, and you can modify the landing pages/sales pages/course pages. It's awesome. Cons There's not really much that I don't like about Teachable. I do wish they offered some features like free trials of our courses, but it's not a major con. The work around would be to provide a free course, that funnels into a paid course. Review Source Joe G. VP of Marketing & International Business Development Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Poor support, steep learning curve" November 11, 2019 4.0 I was working with two friends to create a course for financial advisors. We tried Teachable first, but the site went down at an unfortunate time, we got locked out of our account at another critical time, and its interface was just too convoluted. eachable's support was very unhelpful in the early stages. So, we switched to Thinkific and were much happier. Pros You can create very nice looking courses and have access to all the features students might expect. Cons Like any similar software, there is a steep learning curve. It isn't so difficult, but at the beginning there are inevitably many questions until one gets used to the interface. Teachable's support was very unhelpful in the early stages. Review Source Andrés W. Sales executive Packaging and Containers Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I didn't know I could be a teacher" September 19, 2020 5.0 I started using Teachable as a test. I thought maybe I could teach the things I know by being a sales executive for more than 15 years. It seems some people trusted me on that and Im know a part time teacher! All thanks to Teachable. Pros It's really easy to create courses, tests and to integrate other softwares to the app. Teachable is really famous in the world of e learning. That helps me get a lot of clients. I can teach from home! Cons You need a lot of time to prepare courses and tests. The learning curve is really big, but it worths it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Hayley Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I'd recommend this" July 30, 2020 5.0 I love using Teachable, but have a lot of trouble getting others onboard to use it since it has less features than other programs. Pros \* I love how easy it is to make an online course \* I love having a branded course and they make it easy Cons \* I don't like how every Teachable course looks identical minus the colour scheme and logo. \* I wish it wasn't so obvious I use Teachable over other softwares Alternatives considered [ClickFunnels](https://www.capterra.com/p/156583/ClickFunnels/) Reason for choosing Teachable Cost is better Switched from [Thinkific](https://www.capterra.com/p/132888/Thinkific/) Ease of use Simplicity Review Source Justin D. Account manager Consumer Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for uploading video training or docs to be completed by a variety of people at various times." April 21, 2020 5.0 Organized, simple - almost too simple, team centered, and training focused. Pros I loved the ability to watch trainings on my own time, and have access to it at 4 am on a saturday in April, or at 2 pm on a wednesday in May. Cons The least favorite part was definitely that some video quality seemed to be worse, the videos at times took forever to load, and i found myself wishing that there were just links to take me to youtube or something that already had the video platform there.

Business Coach Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great customer support but…" October 13, 2021 5.0 I didn’t like holding funds for a period of time and the fees. Pros I love the customer support and how long you are able to try out the platform before making a commitment. Cons I wanted to love and use this platform but it was not user friendly and some of the policies didn’t sit well with me.

Pain Relief Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Your Course Creation Pathway" December 2, 2021 5.0 It was nice, customer service is helpful with their tutorial videos but if the issue doesn't get resolved then you are stock with getting the same tutorials over and over. Pros I started using because at the time it was the only platform I was aware of. It's simple to use even for a non tech person. Cons Price, if I wanted all of the bells & whistles then it's pricey when you are just starting. Review Source LP Latasha P. Blogger E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Teachable is great for content creators!" April 9, 2020 5.0 Overall, my experience has been great! Their customer service team is super helpful when you need them and the platform is very familiar to a lot of other bloggers and online business owners. Pros If you are looking to create courses or to grow your online business Teachable is the place to be. I have been using this platform to host my courses and it has been super great. I love how you can create sales pages for each of your courses to help boost sales. Cons The only con about Teachable is that they recently changed how their creators can design their sales pages for their courses. This can be a learning curve if you don't know much about web designing. Review Source SG Stella G. Founder E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great user experience, API access expensive" July 21, 2022 4.0 Pros Great user experience. Creating courses is incredibly easy and the interface is beautiful and pleasant to use. Cons API access requires a much higher tier in subscription which is inaccessible for smaller businesses Switched from [Thinkific](https://www.capterra.com/p/132888/Thinkific/) User experience was not great at Thinkific Review Source Similar Products Featured
