A pricey option, but lots of resources and features in one place
What do you like best about the product?
The amount of courses available and scalability. Our people are on a variety of projects and always using new technologies, so it's nice to have a big library of courses in one place. The search is very inclusive, so you can be pretty vague and find something relevant fairly easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of ability to know what the best video is for the topic I'm researching. It'd be nice to have certified videos, since right now you just have to go off of the most watched or what the rating was. Could be nice to have certified videos for certain topics. Is also very expensive to have licenses for people when they only use it for a few days out of the year. Would be nice if we could pay by consumption.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing mini courses for employees when they are between projects or need to ramp up on a new technology. Our employees are going to this as a learning resource, like youtube videos or training webinars. It's nice to have one place with a lot of different topics. We mainly use it for one off videos and not as much for paths or courses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure they have all the content you need. People will use it like anything else available to them, so there's no point in paying for something if your employees can get it for free elsewhere. Our employees use it as an option, but not more than anything else they have access to.

Exited to provide access to relevant tech courses to our staff
What do you like best about the product?
I like the content of the tech courses provided by Pluralsight. And recently, I like the roleIQ. Although we have only started to use this function, I consider it will provide a tremendous benefit when trying to assess our skills gaps, and identify opportunities for our users to improved their knowledge, as well as keep up with the latest trends.
What do you dislike about the product?
I know that we can download the Analytics data in a CSV format. But, I would also like to download a PDF version of the online report. I'm referring to the one that shows the overview of all users, with the possibility to filter and sort by the Last Activity, Unique Courses and View Time. I sometimes find myself capturing a screen shot by the organization team, so that Team Managers can view it. Perhaps they can view it directly if they log in, but I'm trying to promote the usage of the Analytics to the Team Managers and they are currently not very keen to do so. Or maybe there is another way to do this, but I have not found it yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First of all, I consider the main benefit is having the course content. I think the content is relevant to our internal demand for up-to-date tech courses. Second, I have found that there are available paths, or kind of road maps for several topics. I personally benefited from this. We are aiming to identify and bridge the technical skills gap using Pluralsight.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definately contact their Account Managers. They are very accessible, and very willing to provide support, advice and resources for the rollout, and they continue to follow-up with you. It gives a feeling that you are important as a client.
Why I would completely and totally recommend Pluralsight.
What do you like best about the product?
The vastness of the topics available for learning, the tutors, the ability to test/re-test your knowledge, lead notes, track progress etc.
In general, the Pluralsight platform is very flexible, so I greatly enjoy it !

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the tutors are very unexciting, and very moody, also, some of them have very strong opinions about using software that just ins't up-to-par in the modern industry, but I do guess that the videos were recorded some time ago.
Some of the videos were recorded in years before the 2010's which for the IT industry isn't up to par, as technology and technological focus and tendencies tend to shift once every 5 to 7 years or so, based on my personal observations.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
IT and infrastructure mostly, however, I find PluralSight and it's wide variety of topics, tutors etc. to be quite a valuable asset in providing said knowledge, which can than latter be used to resolve issues, which in my personal opinion, is more than benefit enough.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get on here if you're wanting to grow your knowledge in the IT industry, don't you even DARE think about it!
It’s amazing learner
What do you like best about the product?

Nice tutorials very helpful for NodeJs, Spark and React.
What do you like best about the product?
The best I like in plural sight is the cources differentiation/grouping based on the difficulty. Which helps to choose the cource that best describes us.
The best couse in pluralsight that I like the most is React Redux with v16. Before starting the course, I really had difficulties in understanding the frontend because, I’m a backend person. But, even thought the course says the moderate difficulty. I was able to understand and do all the basic web pages in react and in fact, I have my own resume profile built in React utilizing the knowledge from this course.

The best think I like about Plural Sight is the selection, it always has something new for me to learn.

There isn't much I dislike about Plural Sight, the one thing that does get a big tedious are how some of the video teachers drone on and on, I find I get sleepy or bored but I speed up their voice and it helps.

Plural Sight allows our company to see new software coming out, and keeps all of us software engineers up to date so we can enhance and better our legacy code base.

Incredible video learning

The wide variety of subjects and training videos, the instructors do a great job presenting the information in a fashion I can relate to. The training has helped me to increase my knowledge in C# and helped me on the way to becoming a full stack developer.

Need more content in certain areas like Selenium and some of the training videos only glaze over some information that needs to be explained.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am in the QA software role and to learn more about the QA structure and role is very important and to do this I need to know more about C#, Javascript, and .NET MVC.
