Overall Satisfaction with Credly

We are using Credly for digital badging, and started using it in June 2021. As the Education Manager I am the primary user and administrator of the program. We are using it to issue educational program badges as well as badges for our membership and their involvement in various committees, on our Board of Directors and other membership related areas.
  • Easy to design badges
  • Great customer support
  • Lots of analytics available
  • If badges are linked or dependent on each other for earners, all need to be ready to launch at the same time.
  • Creating the metadata, as a new administrator of digital badging, is a little cumbersome. Takes a while to understand.
  • The upload process for issuing bulk badges is not difficult, but involves several steps that all need to be followed very specifically with no errors.
  • Flexibility with badge designs
  • Robust online help, whether it is articles, FAQ's or chat/support features
  • Affordable
  • Time consuming to set up the metadata behind the badges
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.
