EverFi vs. Udacity

I feel that this particular platform is well suited for the classroom setting. There are many instances, even in classes that don't revolve directly around financial literacy, where this program makes sense. They have also recently started to include life skills content that is applicable in a variety of subjects.

It's suited well to support on developing a project and following a set curriculum to get things and material in order. Also it has the idea of a nano-degree as the mini-certification to focus on working through a program over a course of a few months. It's more of an interactive course and best for having access for a set period of time. It helps to prepare well for exams but less beneficial when it comes to more applications I find, and should not be used to supplant any resource, but to use in conjunction with.

• The administration portal felt clunky with an outdated user interface.
• Assigning courses could be tedious, it was hard to know what notifications employees were receiving.

• Quiz questions in some cases could be made clearer. I didn't feel the questions were always phrased in a way that I could easily understand what was being asked.
• Requests for support can sometimes take a very long time to get resolved.
• Cost structure changed from a fixed-price model to a subscription-only model, and prices are significantly increased as such.

Overall, the platform is very easy to use, occasionally there will be a small glitch where something needs reloaded in order to work, but this is only happened a few times. The majority of the time everything runs very smoothly, and there are no issues to worry about.

They are already very good. But, would be great if Udacity improves the area of standardizing offline projects and exercises so that people could attempt to work offline. Including documentation on how to do it. More practical or real-world projects to choose and work on after course completion. Maybe a community can do it.

Customer and client services vary depending on account representatives. Frequent changes in staff assigned as our client manager has not allowed for much personalized service.

I didn't personally have any issues with the program, but scheduling time to review the final project was easy, and the assistant was pleasant to work with.

We used Everfi with our previous HRIS provider and thought it would be simple to continue using them. We are actively looking for a more robust LMS that can cover compliance + learning/development and other trainings

I combined my learning from various platforms and did on exclusively reply on any one. However, the free courses in Udacity lacks the comprehensiveness as Coursera.

• Using EverFi helped us meet training requirements for several industry certifications.

• I am already in a great position as a CTO with a great company. I hope to be able to build some new technology with what I am learning, but I haven't applied any of it yet to my own real-world problems. I will though.
