Hello and thank you for your comments! And yes you have landed on the exact premise of the platform - most certificate providers are not designing templates continually, but are instead needing to create hundreds, even thousands of certificates from a single design. SimpleCert is designed to automate that experience, and provide a platform for you to manage your program. I'm glad you have found it to be useful! Don't ever hesitate to reach out if we can be of further help, thanks again.

"Great solution for streamlining awarding/tracking CEUs"

5/5

What do you like best about SimpleCert?

I appreciate how it can integrate with other platforms like Zapier, so we can have a SurveyMonkey response send participant details to SimpleCert. It reduced a lot of tedius work while keeping our learners happy. I also like that we can customize the certificates to have our company branding. Additionally, the Global Search tool for reporting is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SimpleCert?

I wish I didn't have to use a middle service like Zapier to connect with SurveyMonkey. It just means one more potential area for disruption of providing our learners with certificates in a timely manner. I also would like to see a revision of the dashboard for ease of access. It's not very intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello and thank you for your comments! I'm glad you found us and that overall the system has been helpful to you. AND I have exciting news for you - in the near future SimpleCert will be releasing a suite of custom in-app integrations (SurveyMonkey will be one of them). This will allow you to integrate DIRECTLY from your SimpleCert account without having to use a third party provider. Stay tuned for more information on that update! Thank you again for your comments!
