Overall Satisfaction with Thinkific

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Thinkific for my online courses on how to enhance structure in your work. My clients attend my courses to become more productive in a reliable and sustainable way.

I have quite an extensive handful courses at the moment - some longer and some of a quick-fix format.

It's great that employees at my client companies that couldn't attend a physical course because of some happenstance can participate in their own pace afterwards.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Easy interface
They come up with features I didn't know I needed
They give me constantly ideas on how to improve the online course part of my business

Cons

I would like the Zapier trigger for new participant would trigger when I bulk import participants to courses in Thinkific
It would be great if Thinkific could handle Swedish tax settings
I'd like support for more languages than one so that I can have a page for my courses in English as well as in Swedish

Return on Investment

During the pandemic, thanks to Thinkific, online courses went from 0 to 30% of our revenue in a tough economic environment when other services tanked

Usability

It's really easy to use, but they have to watch out for complicating the interface with more and more features as they go along.

Alternatives Considered

Teachable

Thinkific feels much more modern.
