"Comprehensive Learning Platform with Stellar Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

I love how Thinkific creates a streamlined platform where I can manage order bumps, subscriptions, flagship, and mini courses all in one place. It's more comprehensive compared to Squarespace and Shopify. I enjoy the integration feature that allows me to connect my courses with Shopify and TikTok Shop, enabling me to reach my audience effectively and sell both virtually and in person. Thinkific's customer service is fantastic; they went above and beyond to help me when I was locked out of my account for 28 days, communicating through emails and phone calls to reactivate my site. The educational resources through webinars and the YouTube channel have been invaluable in helping me maximize the platform's usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

I wish there was an email marketing feature so I wouldn't have to pay extra for Zapier and Mailchimp, which increases my monthly budget by $40. I also wish there was embedded video recording natively into the platform or integration with Zoom without having to use link attachments. This would help not having to send so many links and reminders. After hosting 35 events on Eventbrite, I would like to host my webinars natively on my own platform on Thinkific to avoid so many fees and all my attendees' issues with signing in. It took 2 weeks to learn it, and I could use more assistance with landing pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straightforward Reporting with Detailed Transaction Filters"
4/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

Thinkific provides detailed transaction information and helpful filters, so it’s easier to pull exactly the data you’re looking for. I can quickly run different reports to keep an eye on revenue and fees, and the overall reporting process feels straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

In my experience, Thinkific doesn’t provide much support for setting up the correct tax amounts across different U.S. states or countries. It seems to default to a standard setting that doesn’t match the proper taxes for every location. This has led to issues and extra work on my end to reverse taxes that students were charged and paid incorrectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Expensive. Not good for small business"
0/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

This platform provided a power to provide classes that were clean, sleek, and well received. I used it with two different groups, and one we used some of the highest level of usage from 2018 through 2021. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

We literally could not afford the price tag that was associated with the cost of maintaining courses. Additionally they changed policies that were detrimental to us.

I have also leaned that they limit bandwidth so this is an absolute no go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Thinkific: An Effective and User-Friendly Learning Environment"
5/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

Thinkific Plus provides organizations with flexibility and scalability, and its multi-site administration is excellent for supporting growth across different teams or regions. The customization options make branding simple and consistent, while its integrations and APIs allow for smooth, automated workflows. In addition, the platform’s dependable customer service ensures a seamless experience. It also offers robust analytics, making it easier for teams to track learner progress and improve training programs. Altogether, it’s a solution built to evolve with an organization’s needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

Although Thinkific Plus is a strong platform, its higher pricing can be difficult for smaller businesses to justify. The analytics, while useful, could be more comprehensive, and some aspects of design customization may require coding knowledge. In certain cases, users also have to rely on workarounds for specific integrations, which can be inconvenient for teams looking for a fully streamlined setup.

"Great Platform for Creating and Selling Online Courses"
4/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

What I like most about Thinkific is how easy it is to use. The platform is very intuitive, which lets me focus on creating content instead of dealing with technical issues. It gives me everything I need to run my courses in one place, from hosting lessons to managing students and sales. The initial setup was pretty easy too, with intuitive step-by-step guides that made it straightforward to get our courses up and running quickly. We chose Thinkific because it’s more user-friendly, offers better course management tools, and gives us more control over the student experience. It’s reliable, easy to use, and has most of the features you need to run online courses effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

Some design and customization options are limited, and advanced features are only available on higher-tier plans. It would be great to have more flexibility in page layouts, more control over the checkout design, and access to advanced features without needing to upgrade to higher priced plans.

"Thinkific has it all and more"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Thinkific?

It has all the functions I need and more, so it allows us to grow as we go. Also appreciate the accessible entry level plans for starting entrepreneurs.

I built my whole homepage there, my landing pages and of course the courses we offer. Now we can also offer products, that´s a nice extra too.

I really really love that I can host my videos directly on the platform, without a limit, it makes things so much easier.

The community option is very interesting too. We´re not using it yet, but definitely will in the future.

Interface is so intuitive and I have always received helpful support, when I needed it.

I use the platform for some years now, almost daily these days, I always find what I need, creating my courses was easy and there are many very thoughtful options that save time and energy.

The basic integration options I needed work well. I am not the techiest person and could implement everything i wished. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Thinkific?

I would love to have the App included on my plan, to make it easier for our students.

And I would love to integrate with Brevo for emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
