CompTIA ISAO vs. HubSpot Academy

CompTIA is well suited for both new and experiences IT professionals to study and gain certifications that will help them in their professional lives. The functionality is great for client service as you can access the platform at any time and study on your own time. It may be less appropriate for someone who prefers live learning.

I would recommend HubSpot Academy as an 8. It is an 8 because it is very informative and a great start for learning HubSpot CRM. There is every topic you can think of with informative videos, interactive learnings, and practice quizzes. Topics like workflows, email marketing, sequences, etc. However, sometimes the videos are very long. They are more effective when they are shorter and there is more of them. It is a hit or miss when that happens. Also, the trainings do not go into great detail so it is better for starting learning the basics and functions.

For HubSpot Academy's usability, I rate it a 9 because it is very simple and easy to use. HubSpot Academy is very user friendly. You can pick a category like "email marketing" then you will have an intro video, follow up detail videos, practice quizzes, interactive practices, and some sections have a certification quiz at the end. It is very easy to navigate sections. The only reason I rate the usability a 9 instead of a 10 is because sometimes HubSpot Academy does not register the interactive practices.

CompTIA was selected due to the numerous certifications that they offer and the ability for professionals to stack the certificates and gain additional knowledge all on one platform. The other platforms we have used have been very limited in the number and topics of certifications that were offered where CompTIA thrives in this area.

I think it goes straight to the point. It doesn't have a million courses but it's enough with the ones they have because they're amazing.
