Uxcel Reviews & Product Details

I like the bite sized lessons and the career paths that create organized curriculum. The lessons I've seen so far are very high level with more symbolic demonstrations and visuals rather than real world examples. You can really pull out the app wherever you are at and not feel overwhelmed. The content is very digestable and easy to engage with. The learning paths seem to be well organized and though out.

It's not a complete replacement of other learning methods, but it is a good one to stay sharp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is almost too simplified. The examples are not detailed enough for me to truly comprehend how to implmenent the lessons in the real world. Because it is so easy to pick up and get a lesson in wherever you are, it makes the teachings a little less impactful. I have gotten through a lot of courses and feel like many of the details won't stick because the quizzes are not challenging enough. You can almost just look at the images without reading the question and get them right. I would like to see guided prompts following lessons to implement and practice your learnings. I would also like to see the quizzes be much more difficult. Studies show you learn more by failing. I would remember more from the lessons if the quizzes were not so easy.

Also some of the tips in the lessons are great and they have a bookmarking feature, but I would like to see them improve that. Right now all the bookmarks are lumped into one giant list so it basically has no utility. Some of these tips would be great to reference on the fly when building products. If I want to recall standard practice for padding on a button, I know I saved that "Tip" from the lesson, but it takes far too long to find it. It would be great if bookmarks were categorized automatically (or allow users to organize them into groups.)

Lastly, I think there is a great opportunity to create some "tools" on this platform and I feel like that would make me happier about the yearly subscription cost. Similar sentiment to above -- how about some quick reference sheets like font pairing or color palette guides, how about some templates for UX strategy / exercises we learn about? I would like to see uxcel move lean a bit more into this area.

Overall, it's a little too oversimplified in some regards. I would like to see them bolster the platform so it's a bit more challenging and has more advanced curriculum. The content is there and I like it overall! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

New courses are added regularly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Topics can be high-level, even for the "advanced" courses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uxcel allows you to set your pace, you don't feel forced to move at a certain pace. If a topic is familiar to you already, you can directly jump to doing the quizes, if not you can read the theory. The theories are straight to the point and cut through all unneeded jargons. It's simply: light-weight. It's very easy to onboard and track your team's progress. Also kodus to how active and responsive the team is and how focused their product vision is. They keep offering new features to empower teams and designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is great. For deep dives into complex problems and specializations, you might require more readings outside the platform on more theortically oriented learning platforms. But Uxcel remains the best place to start, and the place to familarize yourself with actionable best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it easy to initially start up on (intuitive), easy to find time for (small amounts of work is needed), easy to follow-up on (the visuel course progression is really good), easy to learn from (I personally like that learning is very much based on good quality illustrations).

In general it is made easy to overcome to do small progress and the "streak feature" also help you continue to do progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Actually there is not much that I dislike. If I am forced to find something negative I would mention:

1) That the heavy use of illustrations somehow make me think that the learning is not that "deep" (which is probably not true)

2) The evaluation of your failures in a test is very forgiving (which can make you think that everyone will "pass the exam"...and that can devaluate the certificate a bit)

3) When I wanted to add a certificate to my LinkedIn profile I had some trouble – I was asked to fill in a new job role instead of just adding this course to my profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using UXcel for a number of months now and I love how everything is broken down into different learning paths. You can take up different career paths which group lessons, try out out assessments to see where your knolwedge level is at and test your skilss with fun exercises. I use this app daily for micro learning as the lessons they offer are in bite sized chunks so you can do it all on your travels! It has been easy to implement my learning to my case studies and also practice my skills with design broefs they offer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not really found anything i dislikes with the app. More or less just tweaks here and there they could add to enhance the experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uxcel's interactive approach of courses is really engaging (micro-interactions sounds are dope) but what makes Uxcel really cool is the Uxcel Go mobile app as you can easily use and implement and interact anytime anywhere, i usually use it in transportation using that time to help myself to always refresh my knowledge in UX or adding new points to it.

The competition theme of the app as having leaderboard helps you to learn more and take more courses, scoring worldwide and support emails that always encourage you to do more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe Uxcel is a bit expensive in specific regions because of currency exchange rate, but you know it's worth it after subscriping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uxcel stands out for its engaging, gamified approach to UX/UI design education. The platform transforms learning into an interactive experience, breaking down complex design concepts into digestible, fun challenges. This method not only makes the material more accessible but also keeps learners motivated and eager to progress. Additionally, Uxcel offers a well-structured curriculum that caters to both beginners and experienced designers, covering a wide range of topics from foundational principles to advanced techniques.

there are limited course depth, the certain courses may not delve deeply into advanced topics. Also, the mobile app functionality such a limited features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The subscription model allows me to participate in different courses without committing too much. Thanks to it, I gained a few certificates within a month. I used it daily for a month.

I like the fact that there are experts who assess your projects. They seem to do it daily.

The web app and mobile app run smoothly. You start a course and can follow it. I also like the fact that I can track the progress of each course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The mobile app's features are limited. For example, you can't go to the career path from it and pick another course from the career path; this can only be done via the web app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Uxcel offers exceptionally well-structured courses tailored for individuals involved in product crafting. It provides visually engaging classes, short learning cycles, and quick quizzes for reinforcing knowledge. Personally, these courses really work for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be a great addition if Uxcel could provide personalized support, such as access to mentors or regular sessions with expert instructors, for guidance on projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have always enjoyed the concenpt of gamification in learning, the best example of which would be Doulingo. Uxel, taking lots of cues from D, is approching leaning design in the same way.

I have tried a lot of platforms that offer similar courses, but here even refreshing your existing knowledge is made into a fun and short activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When it comes to clarity, there are a few rough edges. I can think of a few questions that could benefit from rewriting in a clearer manner. I think, the goal here is not to trick you. This is not a IQ test, so the clearer the quesitons/answer the better you have the chance to learn from them.

I can say the same thing about the concept of 'design score' as a quantitative score out of 100 is meaningless. Something akin to a 'badge' would have been more enlightening about a designer's capabilities e.g. 'aspiring UI designer' or 'seasoned user researcher' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
