Pluralsight give you the opportunity to own your individual development path. With a host of great technical tracks you can decide your journey and own the progress.

A fantastic site and a brilliant opportunity to invest in yourself

Needs more Ansible :-). We have a need for more Ansible knowledge, currently this area seems a little light.

There really isn't much to dislike on Plural sight. Its always nice to reduce cost, but in this instance I wouldn't want to sacrifice cost for quality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pluralsight has given me the opportunity to increase my understanding and vocabulary in areas I don't traditional work. This provides a great benefit to me and the company in which I work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to own your personal development then invest in yourself. Plural is a fantastic tool for people who are driven and want to improve their skills and knowledge.

Pluralsight courses are great, and speakers are easy to understand.

  • September 10, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Most speakers/trainers on Pluralsight have great speaking skills, so it is easy to understand them and follow along. Sometimes the speakers can be slow, so I love the feature to speed up the content to around 1.5x to 1.8x. This allows you to absorb the content, while saving some time. The vast number of courses available are great, and they typically have a lot of content that is new and cutting edge technology. The fact that these are free training courses offered by the company is great! Courses that are similar offered by other companies are typically many hundreds of dollars. With Pluralsight being offered by the company, all course content is free. This fact of having low cost makes it a valuable option for training, and I can't think of any other reason why someone would not use Pluralsight training courses. Pluralsight training courses are one of the best ways for people in the job market to stay up to date on technology, various technical concepts, programming languages, and IDEs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of any downsides or dislikes from using the Pluralsight courses. It is great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving an age-old problem of keeping up with new technology and learning new programming languages. It is good to be familiar with certain technologies before you have to use them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of this training, especially if your company offers it free of charge to you.

Endless content and options to stay sharp

  • September 10, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The variety and depth of content. There is a good variation of beginner level material all the way through advanced. I like the UI and dark theme. Seems minor but it makes the site more enjoyable to use and easier to stay focused for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some content is pretty outdated. With tech, things can change very rapidly of course. This no doubt makes it difficult to make a new course for every version of something. The most severe cases of this can make courses less helpful. For example a 6 year old jQuery fundamentals course is probably pushing it. Sometimes It is hard to tell the difference between learning paths and individual courses. As in, it can seem like courses are contained only within learning paths, but that is not the case.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Compared to competitors I can get more specific topics and choices, and can find them more easily. For example on LinkedIn learning, I feel like I have to filter through what appear to be near copies of the same course but they are actually slightly different. This is very unhelpful and I like that Pluralsight is more streamlined and specific.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try setting a learning path and sticking to it. It is easy to bounce around when there is so much content available. Also I've found it helpful to find some shorter courses to buffer in between longer ones. Pick times where you can focus solely on the training as opposed to having distractions or passively "watching" while doing other things.

The best platform for developing technical skills. Period.

  • September 10, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I've been a Pluralsight user in several of my jobs, and each time I'm required to develop a new skill Pluralsight is the first stop for me. The quality of the content is what brings me back - it's more than just showing HOW to do something, it's often an explanation of WHY to do something a certain way.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure the best way to suggest new content topics or learning tracks. Perhaps a more prominent "Suggestions" section would help curate the content in new directions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recently I've had to do development in both R and Power BI. Coming from a background of Tableau and limited experience with Python, I wanted to approach these skills with fresh eyes and do my best to avoid biases towards the skills I already had. The courses offered in both new skills were very clearly laid out and gave me a ground-up approach that was effective at highlighting what set the tools apart.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are plenty of ways to study tools and develop new skills, but Pluralsight presents them in a simple, curated way and at a higher quality than I've found anywhere else. Their learning tracks and comprehension tests are really effective methods for developing your skillset in the direction YOU want it to go, and it's proven helpful time and time again for me.
