Overall Review Sentiment for LearnWorlds
Log in to view review sentiment.
We have been a LearnWorlds client since 2020 and really appreciate our experience thus far in using LearnWorlds as our LMS for our Kidpower Online Learning Center. We also deeply appreciate the consistent quality, timely responses, and thorough support we have been receiving both from each member of the LW Support Squad along with the unique and high quality guidance and advice of our Customer Success Manager, Brett Hamilton, now Customer Success Team Lead.

No platform is perfect. Yet, even with imperfections, the LW team is attentive to feedback from clients like us (we are a learning center level client). They are atune to our needs and our goals. I have seen repetedly over the years how they build their new future roadmaps based on their customers' needs and requests. They fix bugs quickly and provide clear input and possible solutions when a problem or requested feature cannot be implemented or, at least, not in the short term. In my book, this is all a plus in an LMS! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When you contact their support desk, they respond 24/7, including on weekends, and usually solve issues within 24 hours. They also conduct research and provide recommendations for third-party services. Overall, their service is very sincere. You will see their dev team add new functions quite often to meet your demands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A glitch can occur occasionally, but it can usually be resolved quickly by consulting with LW support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We invested countless hours of work and a lot of money in two other well-known coaching platforms, which we ultimately left frustrated. Learnworlds is almost perfect and is constantly being developed further. The option of our own app is an incredibly valuable module and was the deciding factor for us. The support team responds in record time and always strives to achieve the best possible result. THANK YOU! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Learnworlds offers countless features, many of which can be described as literally high-end. Unfortunately, even with such a great product, there are a few features that - at least in our eyes - would be helpful and important, but are not currently available. However, we are confident that the development team will soon optimize such small but important essentials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Learnworlds allows you to build a beautiful website, classes, and community under one roof. If you want a one stop place to do all of these things at a very reasonable price, this is the place to do it. I did a lot of research and have extensive experiences with other LMS systems, and I definitely recommend LW over all others.
The website builder is exceptional, you can make a really nice modern website that is very flexible, in a few hours. I've been extremely happy with that. The courses similarly allow you to design them almost any way that you want to, with tons of options. They host their own videos which is really nice, since you don't have to go to Vimeo or others to host. I love the fact you can duplicate classes or import parts of classes into other classes, this can save a lot of time.
The community section needs some work but I have faith that LW will eventually make this as polished as other digital communities - the benefit is that it comes included so you don't have another subscription and website to manage. I really like how the community is integrated into each class. (You get a separate forum that shows up right in the class.).
I have a lot of experience with Kajabi (currently manage a large school in it) and for the most part, I think LW has a lot more features. Kajabi tends to be somewhat easier to use, but it's less powerful. Kajabi is a LOT more expensive. Kajabi has better customer service (it's live), but you are paying a pretty penny for that. Kajabi doesn't host your videos. Kajabi's website builder and course builder is much much less sophisticated. Kajabi does let you do nicer group emails, it can take the place of an email program, where Learnworlds can only send out basic emails to students. Kajabi is much more bombproof, in that random things don't seem to happen there, unlike LW which can be buggy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's quirky as heck. Photos disappear. The community section, while it's pretty good, needs a lot of basic functionality (like responding to comments and hashtags), and is very buggy. Students randomly are unable to post or comment due to their system software. You have to learn its quirks for sure. This can be very frustrating for students.
They market that you can do Zoom meetings right from their classes, but this isn't really true, as the Zoom client when run from the integrated class page is extremely basic and frustrating for people who are used to Zoom. Their calendar is not useful at all if you are running a large number of repeating classes. I got around that by embedding an actual calendar from Elfsight which links to my class pages.
I HATE the focus on AI. The last thing the world needs is more scammy low quality classes built by AI. I nearly didn't use LW because of it, but all of the LMS's are going this direction now, to appeal to the lowest common denominator.
One big disadvantage to be aware of is that you have to back up all your videos - we were going from Zoom directly to LW and that was a big no no because we didn't have a copy of our videos (stupid, I know). Now we know that we need to pay for storage and back them all up somewhere. LW customer service was great though and allowed us to re-download them. But you can't assume LW is your backup cloud server.
I think they need to re-vamp their pricing structure - there are a few advanced options I would happily pay for but there's a huge leap from about $80 a month to $250 a month and most of the $250 a month items I wouldn't use. It would probably be a nightmare for them, but an ala carte system would make them more money and allow their users to pick and choose. I'd happily pay for things like automations, but wouldn't give them a dime for the AI features (which I am paying for by default).
I'm pretty tech savvy and I do like LearnWorlds, but it does take a great deal of patience and thinking out of the box to get it to be where you want it to be (as does most software, if you have specifics in mind and are going beyond the basics). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The platform is very rich in options and formats. It's totally versatile if you want to create courses, subscriptions, mentoring, 1:1 products, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The price. It's very expensive even it's worth the money as no other platform offers a complete solution like LW. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Platform has many features that allow you to create your website, school and coaching. I like the built-in community options and the mail features. We've received great support from our customer service specialist! We're looking forward to officially launching our platform next year with LearnWorlds! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the editing is frustrating. The fonts change and there have been times where our work hasn't saved. Some sections are not user friendly while others are great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The product is an all inclusive training delivery platform that enables we to have everything from my website and blog through my training and have good integration to all the tools I would expect. The support team is fantastic. Twice I've had a problem and submitted a ticket to the support team and called it a day. By the time I came back, they either resolvbed my problem or told me how to do what I was trying to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
So far, I've found nothing to dislike. I'm not sure they will allow me to set up an instructor-led course in a virtual classroom environment, but that's the only concern right now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This platform is so powerful and yet still manageable for someone just learning how to create websites and courses. The help area is so robust and thorough without being overwhelming - I hardly ever need help from a real person, but when I do, I get a response lightning fast! With how cutting edge LearnWorlds is, I'm so impressed that it's not glitchy, slow, or overcomplicated. It's so flexible, and I can make my site exactly what I want it to be. I'm loving it more the more I use it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really want a search and filter function for course activities, not just courses. We have a lot of resources over all of our courses and our users are going to want to search for specific things. Being able to tag activities with multiple tags and then allow for search and filter by those tags would truly make this my dream platform! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very broad, with a lot of possibilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is so full of possibilities, it takes a lot of time to learn profoundly the features of Learnworlds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
LW is based on learning science and instructional design best practices + business needs, so it integrates the best of both worlds. From designing like a pro to marketing and selling, the tools are easy to work with AND customer support is awesome! Quick response and very helpful "solutions."
Overall, creators can really do anything they can imagine with LW, yet the interface and tools are easy to navigate. Finally, LW host many free challenges and webinars and has a vibrant online commuity for even more support.
The rich functionalities of LW is definitely worth the price!!!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not aspect of LW that I do not like....all features and tools are intuitive and adaptable to the users' (creators and students) needs! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
