| 2024-07-23 |  | | "Learn Anything, Anywhere, Anytime For Free." & " ...the world’s largest free online learning and empowerment platform." Am I missing something? Because my experience compared to nearly every other reviewer couldn't be more different. After doing the short questionnaire following signing up I'm taken to a BLANK list of available courses... the only link available is an advertisement for Allison courses at 20% off... And... that's my experience. |
| 2024-07-13 |  | | I love the app. However there are some things that I believed to be added or addressed. For one and this is my major issue; you cant zoom in. I have bad vision and this feature is just not there. However on the website you can. The videos especially on the veterinary stuff is hard to understand and even at full screen is barely readable. FIX this and I'll give 5 stars. Thank you guys for making this though. It's awesome for college prep. |
| 2024-06-16 |  | | Functionality is good and design is beautiful. However, one minor flaw which affects the User experience quite a bit is that you cannot go to the next or previous video while in Full Screen mode. You have to rotate your phone back to regular (vertical) mode and then hit next or previous for the next (or previous) video lesson. Just something to think about for a future update. |
| 2024-06-13 |  | | I couldn't just search available courses, I had to complete a questionnaire so courses could be suggested. The questionnaire requires a specific number of items for each question, but a lot of options didn't suit me. I focused on business and IT items, but it had no courses to suggest based on my selections. My suggestion is to add an option to bypass the questionnaire and search for courses. |
| 2024-05-10 |  | | Slow all the way around!! It doesn't matter if I use the app or the website! It's constantly lagging and The quality of the videos is hit or miss.. and most of the courses won't help in obtaining an actual career.. while there are a few courses on here that can help with up-skilling.. I wish there were more legitimate course options.. more certifications, etc.. |
| 2024-03-07 |  | | I enjoy the learning. I wish there was more description of the subsections and the menu was broken down more. A precursor of what to learn from the subsection would be advantageous to be more prepared for the quizzes and tests. I am currently taking course on property management and wish there was a plan for a diploma instead of paying separately for certificates of several courses. Learning for free is great and paying for the certificates is nice instead of paying for classes. |
| 2023-10-11 |  | | At first I enjoyed learning and trying to pass the tests. Until I got to the video part of the cognitive techniques on anxiety and mindfulness. I have a very hard time understanding what the lady is even saying in the videos. I've tried to watch it several times and she rambles on and whatever she is saying is so hard to understand I can't learn any of those parts. Maybe just stick with the reading it and learning or getting someone who can talk so we can understand them. |
| 2023-04-08 |  | | Alison is the best online educational platform I have found so far, and I have tried quite a few of them. There are so many options. Just about anything You want to learn, Alison has at least 1 if not numerous classes on the subject. Some instructors are better than others, but it costs nothing to try a class. If the instructor puts You to sleep, drop the class and find a better one. The only cost is to get a diploma. There are occasional ads but I don't think they are a burden. |
| 2023-03-13 |  | | I would give this three or least a half star. The app is great, found amazing classes. But over time I'm learning, I fallen out of interest from the videos. Like sooo many videos of the intro and what I'm studying. I rather watch two videos and read a article. Than do a test, cause my brain would ask what we read in that article and helps me to engaging a lil more in my courses. Little more reading and less watching videos. Cause we can watch a video through phones and not take in anything. |
| 2023-01-29 |  | | The information itself is very helpful, and the courses themselves are truly free. The Certificates all require payment, and the amount of typos and grammatical errors throughout the courses is very high and takes away from the professional feel of the subject matter. Also, test questions get marked as wrong if you enter singular or plural and they happen to want the one you didn't enter, even though your answer is technically correct. |
