We have used several different digital learning platforms over the years and, frankly, all of them felt clunky - hard to navigate, frustrating to use, and content was uninspiring. LinkedIn Learning is a marked difference in every way, being super easy to navigate, bookmark, share, and the quality and breadth of content is first class.Read all insights and reviews for LinkedIn Learning

Pluralsight is a reasonably priced learning content platform. It contains a broad inventory of content and is fairly straightforward to navigate. The biggest issue I have with Pluralsight is that it is, in my opinion, too focused on individual skills and lacks a focus on certification training options. While there is some specific certification content, it makes up only a small percentage of the overall content library. I personally would like to see more focus on certification training courses as opposed to a certification "path" that just combines multiple different courses from different vendors teaching individual skills.Read all insights and reviews for Pluralsight
