Dec 29, 2025
I was introduced to Skillsoft through ATD, and was so impressed by the demo and features that encouraged my organization to purchase for our company. It has been such a great feature to deploy to employees and we have received outstanding feedback from our employees. The ease of use, quality content, and ability to scale out to our organization so easily has been a highlight of 2025. I would highly recommend to any company with the budget, looking to make an impact to the employee experience and leverage talent development across the org.

Performance of Skillsoft Across Market Features

Skillsoft Likes & Dislikes

Like

Skillsoft by far has some of the best quality training available. It is easy to use, both from an admin and employee perspective. Skillsoft is highly regarded, and for a reason. The AI features are growing, and that was one of the biggest selling points for our organization when comparing TD resources. You can't go wrong with this platform.

Like

It has a broad range of content, an intuitive interface and good scheduling capabilities

Like

Recommended learning by skill and role, skill benchmarks that curate content to support your development based on where you are at with your learning journey, intuitive AI functionality, and opportunities to practice difficult conversations with their CAISY conversation tool.

Dislike

Skillsoft definitely isn't the cheapest platform out there, however it does have some of the top quality resources. The price took some convincing from our leadership team when we were proposing the platform, but the ROI has been well worth the investment.

Dislike

Skillsoft certifications are sometimes not considered industry standards, another thing is mobile functionality is sometimes more challenging than using my PC

Dislike

The cost model of some of the products like their LX Design Studio are cost prohibitive for some organizations.
