Learn a ton!
What do you like best about the product?
There are courses for just about anything you wish to learn about. From high-level business strategy to detailed computer programming courses, you can learn more about close to anything. Pricing is decent as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to be careful when selecting a course. Some courses are glorified webinars that take about 30 minutes to complete, and others are straight-up advertisements for a product or service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm always looking to learn more about aspects relating to my job and others around me (just so I can grasp a basic understanding of people's responsibilities), and Udemy is a great tool for that.

Great for Supplemental Learning
What do you like best about the product?
Single courses focused on in-depth learning on different topics. Many of the standalone free courses serve as a great introduction to decide whether you want to do a paid course with more in depth material. The usage of audiovisual, forums for students and instructors, as well as attached documents and syllabi in different courses make the format really interactive. Another perk is that they also run a lot of specials and discounts on different courses.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not all courses carry the same quality. Not all instructors provide the same quality of depth or interaction.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am learning to code in order to create my own website for my business. So far, I am still in the process of learning.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend this as a way to supplement another in depth curriculum-based program, but not as a primary means of seeking a skill.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some free courses lead to the paid courses for completion of specific learning agenda. Many courses and not much in details.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As being a wife and self employed, getting educated through an institution is pretty hard. Hence Udemy is a great option to keep myself educated as per my time and place convenience
Second-to-none online learning platform
What do you like best about the product?
The variety of courses you can find up there is just amazing. I'm one of those who like learning to do things by themselves and most of all I love learning by watching videos.
I took several photography courses online and it's great how much I learned. Then I found out about Udemy and I was astonished at how many courses are available for online learning.
A great thing is also the fact that the site gives out discounts and offers every day.
If I were to say what I like best: video learning makes it so fast to learn new skills! And the platform is incredibly easy to use. The user experience is nice and smooth.

What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that I don't like is the fact that the platform itself is a bit overcrowded with video courses that seemingly teach how make video courses. They're definitely too many. So this very fact might somehow affect the overall image of the platform, possibly ending up giving some users the impression of being a bit self-promoting. I think the system and the managers should keep a bit more of an eye on this and try to limit it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can learn virtually everything on the platform. I am a teacher myself an the thing I prefer on the site is the Teacher Training dedicated section. Great!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do you want to learn ANYTHING? Do you want to do that by the comfort of your own couch? Well Udemy's for you then :)
Video courses are a great invention and give the possibility of staying in touch with new techniques and technologies even to people who cannot find or attend local courses that meet their requirements.
Example: I live in the north of Italy, there's not a great deal of local courses here. If you want to learn something and if you want high qualified, up-to-date teaching, you definitely have to turn to online learning (I'm not talking about Universities and Education in general, I'm simply referring to personal skills, technical skills, IT skills and other professional and more specific skills development).

A poor excuse to an educational site
What do you like best about the product?
The only possible thing I could like about this site is the expansive selection, but this is a prime and shining example of quantity over quality.
What do you dislike about the product?
The quality of courses, I have taken 2 courses with them already, the first I am pretty sure I had gotten for free, but I thought maybe it was just a more isolated case of bad author, but after taking a second I cannot see myself every returning to them, the quality of the courses were atrocious, I genuinely felt like that author came up with an idea and just hit record.
In both cases the authors spent more time thinking during the recording than anything else, there was a lot of second guessing of their own work and in the more recent course the author clearly had zero clue about the Web IDE he was using and was making glaring mistakes in the code he was writing and then making comments such as 'This is probably not going to work' or 'I do not think that is right'. That course specifically was going for $200, but I had gotten it much cheaper on promotion, but even that was an absolute waste of my money.
I would not even be able to recommend this site to my greatest enemy, this is the place you go to when you want to teach coders what NOT to do.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was trying to learn new technologies and enhance the knowledge I had of other, but to of achieved that with Udemy would of been utterly impossible.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Run, run as fast as you can, the only thing you will get from this site is regret, you are better off learning elswhere.
Get Tutorials
What do you like best about the product?
The UI on your videos are step up very nicely the manner of the page scrolling down to the next video after you have complete one was a nice touch. It was also nice that there was a check list to know what you have watch after coming back a few days later.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that it is a pay per lesson website I would rather pay per month and be able to see more videos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to learn a new program in a day making it so I had less time studying the program and more time completing the task I was given.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Other than a monthly subscription. Everything looks great.
Udemy is the Right Place to Learn Right Things in 2016
What do you like best about the product?
Udemy is the great tool to learn great things online. All the courses are designed by the world's best instructors with utmost dedication and zeal. When I started my first course on Udemy, I was thinking that I would find some useful stuff to learn online regarding the content marketing and web development, but i founded one of the best innovative, creative, useful and comprehensive learning material. Udemy courses have many good things which you should know including beautiful videos, practice exercises and covering all aspects of rapidly changing fields of knowledge. I can tell many things that why i like the Udemy in 2016 but truth lies in bitter reality that I searched for many years to find the great, reliable and rich online learning tool to cope the rapidly changing trends in industry and tackle my growing competitors but i couldn't finds the Udemy which proved to be my ultimate destination in the world of online learning
What do you dislike about the product?
Some courses are quite expensive and some courses are extremely cheap.There should be delicate balance between the prices of different courses depending upon the size, quality, feedback and number of students of each course. There should be more creative and innovative courses on some popular topics regarding the content marketing which is most searched term of Google in 2016. Udemy instructors must also establish direct conversation and chat channels with the students which would proved to be great step in good direction
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving many problems with the Udemy but the most important business problems include learning the present growing trends in industry, learning how to tackle the competitors and update our existent knowledge date base .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You must use the Udemy to learn the present growing trends in your respective industries otherwise you wouldn't be able to tackle your growing competitors. Udemy would also provide you many free and cheap courses to feed your learning appetite.

Amazing learning experience
What do you like best about the product?
The courses on Big Data are really cool. There are both free and paid courses, although I have taken the free courses only. The courses are very helpful. The videos are very informative and up to the mark when it comes to the quality of the content.

The courses are more like quick crash courses. Although I do not exactly not like them as they helped me go through stuff really fast. But some users might find it annoying as the things covered are really precise and without quizzes mostly.

Awesome platform. Ideal product for quick learners.
Huge quality difference between numerous courses
What do you like best about the product?
Variety of courses are nice, you have always more than one choices for one topic.
You can find discounts always even if you can not find any, if you wait one or two weeks, the course you are looking for will be on sale absolutely.
Useful interface makes easier to follow the course, course dashboard is nice so you can always up to date also when the course instructor makes an announcement, udemy e mails it to you so you can always be updated about current news about the course.
You can buy really good courses for a cup of coffee money, which is really great for accessing information for everyone.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lot of garbage courses only focused to make money but nothing more.
Some good courses are overpriced and get not enough discount so you can not buy them.
Sometimes comments are may be deceptive.
Assignment system is not really effective like Teamtreehouse etc. It would be great if Udemy can improve that system and course instructors may really make difference and make users learn better.
