Udemy vs Edvance360

Udemy is an online learning solution that provides instructor-led learning classes. Users can pick from a varied selection of topics and train at their own pace. Most reviewers were especially pleased with the features, especially the ability to control the speed of learning. Reviewers left overwhelmingly positive comments on the quality of the classes. Many learners said they were still able to contact their instructors when needed. Most users felt their teachers were skilled and knew their subjects well. Users praised its skill-building both in personal and corporate environments. Though users did like the classes, they also recommended heavily screening for quality. Some complained that the platform didn’t vet what was on the site well. Udemy has reviews for all of its classes left by users. Most people recommended weeding out the good ones from the bad ones. The most significant criticism by far came from people trying to get refunds. They said they had trouble contacting customer support or didn’t receive their money back. Others disliked the 30-day refund policy and felt cheated by it. Users were split on the price of the courses. Classes often came with discounts and some felt they were reasonably priced. Others felt they were too expensive or got angry when they paid for a class that was later offered for free. Udemy is a helpful resource for self-paced learners who have a specific set of skills they want. Vet the courses carefully, wait for discounts and look for details if the price isn’t satisfactory. It doesn’t have HR functionality as it’s more of a content library than a full LMS. Larger organizations who want to take an analytics-driven approach to learning should look elsewhere.

Edvance360 is an eLearning and training solution for educational and corporate use. Overall, reviewers felt it was easy to use and a solution they’d recommend to others. In particular, they called out features such as assignment management, permissions control, customization options, course control and the system of alerts. Administratively, it provided an appropriate level of control while still being useful on an individual level. Commenters also felt the customer service was extremely helpful, though a few noted they were slow to respond occasionally. The biggest problem by far was the learning process. Reviewers said it was a steep and difficult learning curve. They disliked the emailing system, saying it was sometimes glitchy and hard to use. Users also felt that the reporting was too limited and the process of pulling reports was too complicated. Overall, this may be a good choice for small to medium companies or educational institutions with some technical know-how on the back end who are looking to create and deploy courses.
