A quick way to learn!
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the courses did not take very long and content is very easy to follow.
What do you dislike about the product?
I enjoy quizzes so i'd like to see more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm an Operations Engineer and work many platforms. This gave me an opportunity to get my feet wet in areas that were new to me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wonderful courses. A quick way to learn!
Amazing Learning Resource
What do you like best about the product?
I like the variety of courses, the quality of the courses, and the overall UI. It's very easy to find what I'm looking for. I also like how easily I can organize course for later viewing, and share my channels with my team. Many of the courses I've viewed have had the option to follow along with development, or to download the source, which is a great option for learning.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although I think the Skills Gap beta is a great addition, I think it could use more work to make it more intuitive as to what it picks for further skill development. I would also like to see more courses related to Ruby development, that seems to be the one area I haven't found much content.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pluralsight has helped me figure out ways to increase the reusability and extendability of our current codebase on our path to an enterprise level solution.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're working on a collaborative team that is learning the same content, definitely make use of the Channels feature, it works great for sharing content.
Getting new skills
What do you like best about the product?
Instructors really know what they are teaching us. I really enjoyed my CSS, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe DC and intro to web development classes. I’m planning on taking an Adobe XD course. I also wish there were more UI/UX classes on it. Pluralsight is the bomb! I totally tell my friends who want to learn a new skill to go to pluralsight. What about having more User Experience, Information Visualization, E-commerce, human-computer interaction, usability, design patterns, testing, gamification, accessibility, user research, mobile design, UX management classes, Virtual reality, intuitive products, visual perception, information architecture and prototyping classes? That would be great! UX is a very important part of development and we should be able to find more resources out there. I'm sorry, but I don't know what to say anymore. Run it up the flag pole strategic fit goalposts so please advise soonest best practices, but we are running out of runway run it up the flagpole. Anti-pattern. Baseline the procedure and samepage your department parallel path, for Bob called an all-hands this afternoon, and quick win. In an ideal world. Good optics one-sheet, but move the needle, nor going forward closer to the metal take five, punch the tree, and come back in here with a clear head we need to build it so that it scales.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much I dislike it about it. I wish I didn’t have to request permission to use it every week and I wish you guys offered more UI/UX classes. More design thinking too and maybe some lean ux as well
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm developing new skills on a new role and I'm being able to apply them to it. Very happy about it
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it!
Excellent resource
What do you like best about the product?
Great instructors providing high quality, well organized content on a wide range of applicable skills & technologies. Unlike other platforms, the content is easy to find and does not contain significant amounts of duplicate courses.
The skills tests are also pretty useful.
The skills tests are also pretty useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the courses are quite high level in nature and not as much of a deep dive as I might like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pluralsight helps me brush up on some concepts which I can apply to projects I'm working on, and helps me learn new skills to provide added value to the teams/projects I'm working on.
Covers most needs
What do you like best about the product?
Decent assortment of classes.
Offline app for laptop allows me to take these courses anywhere w/ me (ex. airplane). Some other sites only have an iPad app, which is an extra device to carry since I don't want to code on my iPad.

What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't seem to be the first destination for many instructors, as say Udemy would be. That said, I'm usually able to find alternatives in Pluralsight for something I would have wanted to take another platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've taken classes in Blender, which I've been able to my digital paintings. For work, their classes in R and Python have made me more efficient and accurate in my daily tasks.
Happy learner.
What do you like best about the product?
Pluralsight's programming keeps me up to date with the latest tools, and also provides a way for self-taught devs like me to get solid grounding on fundamentals .
What do you dislike about the product?
Could be easier to browse through new material.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very focused on .net core, EF Core and Angular.
I am a better developer because of Pluralsight
What do you like best about the product?
The industry leading professionals sharing their knowledge with the community.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Newest Course List is not curated with my skill level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have gained valuable skills that I use everyday in my job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start using it before you need the knowledge in your current job for project work and you will benefit by being able to be a technology expert from day one on those projects.
The BEST learning platform for real skills
What do you like best about the product?
Pluralsight has the largest selection of technology-related courses, spanning over a variety of topics. The “test your skills” feature helps to show the areas where your knowledge of a particular technology might need work to close the gaps. This feature even provides links to the specific courses that will help you close those gaps in knowledge.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only negative aspect of Pluralsight is the age of some of their courses. I know that technologies change very rapidly, but there are a few “staple” courses that could use updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had to learn a new programming language for a job I was offered, and Pluralsight gave me the tools I needed to learn and master that language.
Very helpful getting up to date in recent technology
What do you like best about the product?
My favourite part is the skills IQ test where I get to know the level of my skills and then pluralsight creates a path where I can take courses on the skills I am lacking in and improve on it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough courses on topics like web accessibility and web components (Stencil.js)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of pluralsight, I was able to get a refresher of Angular framework which helped me a lot at work.
Applicable Training
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to interact with course content on own schedule including starting, pausing, resuming. Content is structured in a methodical way that allows trainees to easily skip sections they are familiar with.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although infrequent, however, some of the course narrators are unable to engage or lose viewers attention. Example of the former would be a constant and a very monotonous tone of the narrator. An example of the latter would be heavy re-use of colloquial phrases e.g. "Things of that nature" that add no value to the course and are a waste of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through learning with Pluralsight I learned a number of items that now enable me to both improve the current code base & to leverage new tools and strategies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Pluralsight as a training platform for organizations because of the on-demand content viewing & interactive quizzes accompanying courses.
