Pluralsight - great for beginning learners
What do you like best about the product?
There's a lot of breadth to the course offerings in Pluralsight. It's a great resource for starting your learning in many areas of tech and business. The UI is very good and the analytic tools allow you to understand what course offerings are most important to your learners and adjust your approach in rolling out learning. It's good to see that in recent years, Pluralsight has put work into supporting certification study and hands-on labs. User / account management is very easy as well. Pluralsight have recently acquired A Cloud Guru, which is a great addition to the content for server and cloud development, infrastructure and CI/CD.
What do you dislike about the product?
Once you've covered the basic learning in an area, it can be difficult to find more advanced content in most areas. The content varies a lot depending on the subscription tier you're enrolled in, and it's difficult to get an understanding of the differences without trying out the different tiers or doing a lot of digging online. It's also frustrating when you search for a topic, find a course listing, then see that it's not available in the subscription tier you're using - I'd prefer that it not show up if I can't use it, and realize that this is a prompt for the user to upgrade their subscription. Their pricing model ends up being fairly complicated when considering add ons like labs and SSO (single sign-on), requiring more time/planning when working to roll out Pluralsight Skills.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We often have software engineers ramping up on areas or technologies that are new to them for both professional and personal development. This is our primary use case and having Pluralsight as a learning platform is positioned as a job perk.

The quality of the instruction is great. It seems like the topics I'm interested in are updated very frequently as new versions are released.

Honestly, there's not much I dislike. I find the training selection quite good. Every now and then there is something that's not in their catalog, but it's rare.

Some complexity in defining a curricullum

Excellent Training Platform
What do you like best about the product?
The overall level of choice of topics combined with the ability to set skill levels sets this platform apart. Adding the ability to have SSO with Azure AD is a plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
Implementing SSO was a little tedious and having to engage with a technical team to enable this shouldn't be necessary. Security like SSO should also not be an additional cost. While we were provided a complimentary SSO setup, this doesn't seem to be the standard and SSO settings should be readily available within the environment as other platforms do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this platform to keep on top of changing technical needs, upskilling.
Great resource for our IT team
What do you like best about the product?
I love the breadth of course material and quality of presenters. I appreciate having clear course outlines and the ability to zero in on parts of courses that are particularly relevant to the moment. As a development manager, I love having this available for all interested staff to advance their professional development. There are many great courses, and my team members often share their favorite presenters. Also, I love the reports that show me clearly how my team is using this education resource and helps me manage how many subscriptions I should keep active for those actively using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't really think of any downsides. It would of course be nice if it were less cost, but compared to offsite or remote courses, it quickly pays off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developers have varying degrees of interest in learning and keeping up on technologies, and having Pluralsight available to my team makes it so easy for some of the lesser motivated staff to go check out a learning opportunity that they do choose to engage. And those who ARE interested in learning have a very broad range of relevant courses to choose from.
