    This is our first experience with a digital badging system, so as of now it seems to meet our overall needs. Credly is very widely known and utilized by many companies, so they are well established in the arena. Real time training is a plus, as is a dedicated Credly success manager.

    edX
    edx is really helpful for learning and growing your skills in both personal and professional aspects. It helped us learn all the business concepts which were required for our company. We chose certification after auditing a number of courses. It was definitely a terrific tool for professionals who were self-learning.

    It is an excellent tool for remote setup team. The universities are well respected, and the course depth adds a lot of value. The upskilling has become convenient. Progress can be tracked easily, and it offers customized corporate training needs fulfilled. The compliance training courses are helpful in particular as they meet growing demand.

    Our association really did not have much choice because the LMS we utilize only integrates with Credly. We have looked into and been approached by Badgr and Accredible, but have not investigated them much because we need the LMS integration for easy of issuing. In the future we may look into them when our Credly contract expires, just to cover our due diligence needs.

    edX
    edX for Business seemed to be quite similiar to other competitors in terms of methodology and formats. In our case, courses themes availability were very important, because the challenge was to find relevant content to support pre-defined learning tracks. We found most of them on edX for Business catalog. The posibility to integrate them into other platforms was also an important decision factor.
