Thinkific Reviews & Product Details

It has all the functions I need and more, so it allows us to grow as we go. Also appreciate the accessible entry level plans for starting entrepreneurs.

I built my whole homepage there, my landing pages and of course the courses we offer. Now we can also offer products, that´s a nice extra too.

I really really love that I can host my videos directly on the platform, without a limit, it makes things so much easier.

The community option is very interesting too. We´re not using it yet, but definitely will in the future.

Interface is so intuitive and I have always received helpful support, when I needed it.

I use the platform for some years now, almost daily these days, I always find what I need, creating my courses was easy and there are many very thoughtful options that save time and energy.

The basic integration options I needed work well. I am not the techiest person and could implement everything i wished. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love to have the App included on my plan, to make it easier for our students.

And I would love to integrate with Brevo for emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Thinkific because it’s so simple and easy to follow.

The help center is FANTASTIC! I’m not a tech person, but Thinkific makes it easy to use and even easier to get help whenever I need it. It’s perfect for beginners and, of course, for online course creators who want to save tons of time. Stress-free and affordable!

The payment methods work seamlessly, whether you use Thinkific Payments or a third-party option.

I love all the features and can’t wait to keep growing with it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Well, I have to say this might not apply to everyone.

But I’m happy to share my experience: since I’m in Indonesia and most of the help center agents are in the USA, I need to adjust to their time zone and wait for responses during their office hours. It would be great if there were support agents in my time zone to help people like me in Southeast Asia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aside from helping me create my online self-care school for busy people, I love that they're always adding new tools, updating with AI options, and providing very practical features to retain my audience, like having my own app, or improving communities, which are now like our own social network...

And overall, it's very easy to use, intuitive, comprehensive, and an ideal way to run an online business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since my online school is designed as a large video library, like a "self-care Netflix," I initially didn't know how to design that experience for the consumer, as Thinkific has a different design for courses.

But I eventually found practical ways to create video galleries by topic, and my students are thrilled.

When they upgraded to the app, it was another way my students began using the school's videos much more fluently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was easy to get started, having never used a LMS before. We are a small company and do a lot of the setup of our systems ourselves. The "how to guides" are really useful and had us up and running easliy. We've also likes the add ons and improvements over the years we have Thinkific. We tried others but they were not as intuitive, too complex and time consuming and without the customisation we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We'd like a few more features on the mid range payment tier. We'd like to be able to group our customers by product and more easily email them as a group. We'd like an easy integration with our website also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our community has been in the process of looking for a new learning management system for our enablement training programs and we decided to launch with Thinkific this past spring.

What we liked the most about the product was the ability to create both on-demand and live course content, which fit perfectly into our current program model and expansion plans. Plus, the community group part of the platform allows us to take a step forward in keeping students engaged in the LMS instead of using slack channels for communication.

We've been working behind the scenes on getting courses rebuilt in Thinkifc and recently just launched our new system. The process of bringing over old courses was rather smooth and we are excited to finally get users into the system to start engaging with our on-demand content. The team at Thinkfic was super helpful with all of our unique program questions and guiding us the right direction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one downside to the platform is that we need need to use some custom code to properly upload our e-learnings as multimedia files instead of SCORM files. Our courses have multiple e-learnings in them so we wanted to avoid using the bundle feature and keep them all in a single course. The issue was when initially uploading the .zip file students could skip the whole e-learning and move on with content.

Thankfully the Thinkific team was able to produce some custom code to avoid this issue. We do need to manually update each zip files code, but we found it worth it for student engagement with our materials.

Also, there is a size limit on multimedia files in the system. If you have a e-Learning with a lot of videos you may need to remove them and upload the videos directly into Thinkific to avoid the size constraints. This wasn't that big of an issue for our course build once we understood what the issue was. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thinkific is intuitive in its design and interface. The platform is clean and easy to navigate for learners and us as administrators. The student experience has been vastly improved upon moving to Thinkific from our previous continuing education platform.

Thinkific's drag-and-drop builder and templated course structure made for an initial setup that was smooth. Customer support has been highly responsive to feedback. They've implemented functionality upgrades to the site that we recommended.

Better features for a smaller price tag. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual customization constraints and coding options are limited. The reporting tools that would be most helpful are only available on the highest-priced plan, and even then aren't guaranteed. Limited lead and funnel tracking features. In-house emailing options are very limited. Would benefit from more design feature capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I chose Thinkific because I did not want to just "sell online courses." I wanted to truly teach those that bought my courses. Thinkific's features like submittable homework assignments, drip schedules and prerequisite filters allow me to ensure that my students are truly engaging with the course they purchased.

I think the Community space could use some work in terms of the way it connects to other products. First, we should be able to customize the welcome email for the Community the same way we can for individual courses. Second, being able to mass email Community members on all plans would be very helpful in terms of increasing engagement. And finally, the Community doesn't come up as a course so it can't connect to Zapier which makes creating streamlined workflows or communication to community members impossible. I think it's a good start, but I would appreciate if more of these updates could be worked on. The Community space has had very little improvement since I first started using it over 3 years ago.

It's easy to use - the easier I used of all LMS. It answer my need specially the Wysiwyg aspect, you can for sure get a beautiful Academy that offer a great experience to your learner since the basic plan! Price are reasonable and the support team is a superstar! They give you fast answer and they make sure to follow up each time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish some tiny feature were not so far in the advanced plan or could be offered à la carte like access to custom code, SSO or SCORM format... For exemple the scorm format is only available in the Enterprise plan which I dont see buying in a near future. But I would gladly pay for that feature as a stand alone. Also, I really appreciate that we can custom many type of banner and add dynamic content on custom page but there is still some detail and terminology we cannot modify like the term "product" in the catalogue or "lesson" and "course" even if the "course"' only contain a webinar recording. More possibility to tag those content following our needs will be great.

But overall I really enjoy my experience with Thinkific and my team is super impress with the result of our academy so far! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a teacher and not a business person, Thinkific made it very easy for me to get started on creating my courses. With the built in landing pages and website pages for each course, Thinkific makes everything look professional and seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thinkific is constantly making h updates (which is great), however, this sometimes forces you to pay more for things that you might not need. I reached out to them for support and they were able to help be picked up the right tier for what I needed. This keeps the finances manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thinkific makes it incredibly easy to create and deliver professional-quality online courses without needing any tech background. I love how intuitive the course builder is — it allows me to upload videos, add quizzes, and structure lessons in a clean and user-friendly format. The platform feels stable and reliable, and the design is clean and modern, which enhances the experience for both creators and learners. I also appreciate the ability to fully customize my site to match my brand without needing to code. Their support team and help resources are top-notch — fast, helpful, and genuinely invested in user success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't found anything that I dislike. Perhaps, something about the design customization. Although strong, it has a bit of a learning curve if you’re aiming for something highly tailored without coding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
