Teachable vs. ThriveCart

Gets the job done and is easy to use. We've definitely made serious revenue with it, and it's worked well enough with our other systems to enable some handy automations. I'd say if you've got a course or courses you're looking to launch and they are fairly straightforward with up-front payments, Teachable can definitely get the job done. However, if you're running more of a membership model for access to your courses, Teachable by itself may not be the ideal solution, or you may want to use a different platform for the payments and just use Teachable for the actual courses.

ThriveCart is a great platform and product for entreprenuers looking to easily and effortlessly incorporate digital products into their suite. One of our favorite features is that we can do a sales page AND a checkout page all in one, on one single page. It's streamlined and clean and effective. The aesthetics are also solid.

• They FALSELY ADVERTISE their services.
• They kicked us off their "unlimited" plan b/c we were using serving too many downloads?
• They were terribly rude, cursing at us, threatening us, deleting our forum questions.
• They have no unlimited plan and need to be sued in a court of law for their misleadings.

Because we haven't had any major issues with it. The platform is really simple to use and the content can be uploaded and modified very easily. It has a drag and drop feature that makes everything fast and easy. Their support has always answered our questions or concerns and the cost is affodable. We will keep using it in the future.

Because it's easier to use both as administrators and both as user. We have never heard of any users having issues login in or going through the lectures or completing the course

I gave ThriveCart the rating of a ten for overall usability because it's perfect for someone who is not tech savvy at all and has been very easy to use, figure out and navigate. I've been able to get things live and up and running in a single day. Not days or week or months. It's really a great option for selling digital products!

We haven't had any issues, it's always available. Even when they schedule a maintanance on their end, students still can access the courses

Never had any issues with pages or videos not loading

Their support is good overal. There are a couple of things that I would change, like answering faster. Sometimes they take a day to answer a concern and that's kind of annoying considering sometimes there are urgent issues we have to deal with. But the support has been good, they have answered properly.

I'd say: learn the system first, try it out and then publish the content with customers. There are a couple of features that will cause issues with customers (especially lazy ones) but I'd say it's easy to implement and modify if needed. People don't need to train much to use Teachable, but they should take their time to know it.

It's honestly just worked really well for us in terms of serving the actual course content. Plus, our customers can maintain one profile and use that to access all of the courses and bonuses that they've acquired from us. And the cost of Teachable has been very reasonable in terms of our budget.

We wouldn't change anything. Everything seemed fine when we purchased

We haven't had any issues with it. Their maintanance hours are always at times when we don't have students there, and even then, they still can access the platform

All the implementation process was fast and easy.
