Thinkific Plus Pricing Overview

I have been using Thinkific for just over two years. I feel that they understand me and my needs as an entrepreneur and new business owner. Thinkific understands my unique challenges and opportunities and advocates on my behalf by the intentional partnerships they form on my behalf. They clearly communicate how those partnerships are able to help my business without me having to spend hours researching available resources. The wealth of resources provided through "My Training" has helped walk me through concepts of marketing, course creation, and business concepts that have catapulted my business to success. I have personally recommended Thinkific to a number of people and strongly encouraged them to allow Thinkific to help them to either start their own business or take their business to the next level.

One area I would like to see improved would have to do with building the website. I found this to be a bit confusing. After many hours I did not feel that the website reflected what was in my head. Yet, I was not able to create a website that I felt was comparable to other Thinkific websites. I still am not sure how. I am left feeling a bit lost and feel that I need to hire a "Thinkific Expert" to create the site for me. I don't know that I would call this idea a "dislike" but rather a personal desire for Thinkific to implement. The "My Training" videos and "Help Center" are amazing. But, I would like an opportunity for live input. Meaning that I have an opportunity to share some ideas with Thinkific. I have several ideas that I believe could help Thinkific and in return would help me and my business. An area that I could be better helped by Thinkific has to do with equipment and post-production. I have to spend a lot of time on Youtube to try and figure out how to shoot video, edit video and the equipment needed. I would like for Thinkific to walk me through the possibilities, cost, and experience of building my mini-film studio in a way that makes me feel confident that I am able to produce world-class material. If Thinkific already does the things that I have previously mentioned please feel free to email me and let me know. As of writing this review I simply am not aware. Also, these things are not something that "bothers" me. In other words, I am simply giving some ideas where I think Thinkific could help me but not as a criticism.

I am a Life Coaching specializing in something very unique. My expertise is something that could be used around the world. Thinkific has made it possible for me to reach out to many people. The ability for me to shoot videos has made it possible to duplicate my one-on-one coaching to reach many people. The benefits of reproducing myself have been personally challenging yet, exciting because I feel that Thinkific has given me powerful tools and a clear method to offer my teaching. Due to Thinkific, I have realized ways to take my coaching practice to the next level by offering group live zoom teachings. I have been pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness and success. The course I have created has become a powerful tool to meet the needs of individuals and families. The unique problem that I solve is helping Catholics to learn about healing and deliverance. I teach them how to apply biblical principles to their life, marriage, and business. I have witnessed a great number of people that have experienced true healing and freedom in their lives. Thinkific has made it possible for me to reach a much larger audience during a time of Covid. Personally, Covid has not affected my business due to meeting with people through Zoom but Thinkific has helped me to offer a group coaching experience right from their own homes.

I love Thinkific because you're not paying thay hefty fee to a 3rd party (e.g., Udemy). You have control over the platform / landing page yourself, and the prices of your course (you can choose whatever price you want)! DRIP content is also available.

The thing I disliked the most was that my students / learners had to create an account to purchase my course which was fine. But after they created the account, it took them back to the homepage rather than the checkout page. I did get Thinkific's support on this issue & they were great, but it just never seemed to work for me (I got numerous friends to test it).

It's a huge time - saver! Especially with having the pre-made landing pages and you just rearrange blocks around is quite convenient.

Simply put, Thinkific Plus offers. Us the best value for money of any LMS we have used, and we have tried quite a few! It is fast, user friendly, and the support we received from the Thinkific Team is absolutely excellent.

We're a bit disappointed that compatibility with SCORM content authored by our learning team can't be hosted, but we've managed to find workarounds for this and our content is looking great on the platform.

Thinkific Plus has a very competitively priced licensing model, which makes it easy for us to take bold decisions about new launches without having to worry about spiralling license costs. The integration with Salesforce is a key driver for us, and it makes data and reporting incredibly powerful, integrating learning data with data in our CRM system for all of our learners. We have been able to quickly roll out new courses, add content to existing ones and improve functionality and user experience using some of the plug ins that are available.

I love regular meetings with our Thinkific PLUS Customer Success manager. She can troubleshoot about our specific design needs, connect us with support, and respond to our requests asynchronously. It feels very high-touch in that we know there's someone from Thinkific on our side helping us achieve our goals on a regular basis.

Sometimes there's not support for design changes that are deemed outside the scope of Thinkific's role (for instance, creating custom CSS to add to a site) but these design changes are made necessary by structures in Thinkific's site builder specifically, so it feels like there might need to be some support for solving issues that only exist because of some of Thinkific's existing structures. I also wish there were more interactive design options within Thinkific's courses as opposed to having to use outside applications with extra cost.

Thinkific allows us to provide asynchronous self-paced training for our customers who might not be able to take time out of their day to attend a live webinar. We've seen that these courses are popular in some areas.

What I like the most about Thinkific is that it's cheap and pretty practical for the price.

I don't like that I can't select by groups on the plan I'm currently on, its the one that costs 49 usd.

I've resolved to host all of my courses and classes online and that people can acces them. I check the homeworks in there also so no need for Google classroom

I really love the ease of use and the ability to drip content. It's very intuitive and easy to navigate, and the ability to integrate payment software and email software makes it a perfect platform for hosting my courses. The price is absolutely fantastic, I'm on the Pro Plan + Growth Package, and it gives me incredible value, and I've made my investment back many times over. The ability for private and hidden courses allows me to create additional bonus content for marketing and it's an additional asset in my marketing funnel. The ActiveCampaign and Zapier integrations are the cherry on top. These allow me to automate a lot of administrative work, and save me hours of administrative work.

I dislike very little to be honest, because it does exactly what I want it to do. I would have to be rather nitpicky to find small things I don't like. To be able to host, say 2 domains on the current plan without having to make a massive jump to Premier plan would be something I'd like to have. I suppose I would like the ability to integrate other payment software aside from stripe, but, that would be about it.

I can host my courses on an incredibly easy-to-use platform, where almost everything can be taken care of natively within the software. It makes my life VERY easy. The courses look professional and my students have no complaints. It looks good on both mobile and web browser. I don't need an additional website to host, I can build a landing page with absolute ease.

Thinkific is a easy course creation platform that any beginner can use to create courses for their online school. I like the simplicity of creating modules, uploading video's, images and PDFs. Since it’s annoucements on the change of price plans I think it’s a great direction to go. Love the fact there’s now zero commission taken by Thinkific on plans and the limitations on the amount of courses available on the free plan is great. This way people using the platform for free can focus on creating content that’s packed with value rather that just getting as many courses created. Quality over quantity.

My only dislike is the limit on the size of the uploaded videos, too much time is wasted waiting on the upload to then be told it's too large.

I'm able to create courses at super speed to get out to my learners. Saves me time, educates my audience and helps to build my brands online credibility.

The software is relatively easy to use. It is fairly restricted in site development, but that is no different from similar competitive offerings. More pricing options are provided vis-a-vis competing offerings but only available with higher (and more expensive) plans

Most options are available with higher-priced plans. The biggest negative with the platform is that it offers ZERO SECURITY. A paid subscriber can access the content URL using a simple "View HTML" that can then be shared with anyone. Absolutely anyone.
