Perfect!
What do you like best about the product?
Great content, great UI. Test at the beginning is very usefull, so if you are advanced user you don't have to repeat knowledge.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price. There is only few non IT courses. Some courses are out of date.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't have to spend workers time to teach newcomers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It could help a lot. Saving a lot of time.
Pluralsight is a great jump start to learning new technologies
What do you like best about the product?
Pluralsight gives you the freedom to select training plans and paths to get a deeper understanding of certain technologies. I love using it as a first stop to learning about a new coding language. Most of the plans are structured in a way that starts you off with the very basics and keeps progressing until you have a pretty good understanding of the technology.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the categories I’ve been interested in has had some significant gaps in material that I found frustrating. Switching from one teacher plan to another often causes overlap in material or gaps. While it’s nice to have multiple classes for the same material, there are times when I wish that a single teacher would have classes that span all experience levels for a given area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it mainly as my first stop in learning a new coding language. It is one of the fastest ways to become familiar with a new language.
It is also a great tool to learn all types of technology that would otherwise not be obtainable either because your company doesn’t use it, or you wouldn’t go searching for it yourself. Most courses range from 1 to 4 hours which is very efficient in terms of learning a new technology!

It’s a great tool to expand your skill set and learn something completely knew! The courses are well designed and allow you to go from no experience to intermediate knowledge very quickly.
I DO NOT recommend being an instructor
What do you like best about the product?
If you can find what you're looking for (content in a current version), the authors generally do a good job.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pluralsight contacted me to be an instructor. My curriculum was approved and I was promised a $200 reimbursement for equipment (microphone and stand, digital adapter) and software I had to buy (which went over this allotted amount). I spent time planning my lessons and had audio trouble that the editor they set me up with was not able to help me resolve. As a full time employee, I needed to work on this project when I had pockets of time. Waiting for feedback was very slow and didn't work out with my schedule. I asked to be able to work with a more responsive editor, but was denied. I moved to another state and brought all this equipment with me, as well as a different laptop (which would probably resolve the audio issues). Soon after, I was told my project was cancelled. I asked for the $200 reimbursement- not any $ for my time or moving expenses or anything else. I was told by the editor that I would get it. I corresponded with him monthly, reminding him of the money owed to me. This went on for 5 months before I gave up. I do not recommend working with or purchasing from a company with these poor business ethics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They owe me money and I don't think I will ever get it. I can live without this, but the principle of it bothers me.
Also- I have used Pluralsight for training myself and have found that a lot of the content is outdated and obsolete. It is difficult to find the software version on the courses. They seemed to have a lot more relevant content when they were Digital Tutors. Some of this content has been moved over to the new Pluralsight, but a lot of it is missing.

Do not be an instructor or purchase subscription
Benchmark for e-learning
What do you like best about the product?
Best source for learning anything in the Microsoft stack. Specifically development tools. Wide variety of courses offered.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pace at times tends to be slow and lack of lab environments
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying up to date with technology
Learn Something New Every Day!
What do you like best about the product?
I primarily use PluralSight for Adobe design software such as Photoshop and Illustrator. The best and most helpful part about utilizing PS is the "courses" that are arranged by proficiency and difficulty. The courses are chronicled in a way that makes sense to learning the program, and the "teacher" uploads their working files so that you can download and follow along.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't anything I dislike - I learn something new every time I open this interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At my job I primarily use Adobe Illustrator. Because my company offers a PS subscription for free, I decided to begin watching courses for this program. I began learning how to execute things differently and more efficiently on day one. At first I was afraid of Illustrator, but it has become such a second-nature tool for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My company gives us a PS subscription, but I believe they give a free trial. If you're on the fence about using, I URGE you to try the trial. It's a great program.
Software Developer Pluralsight user
What do you like best about the product?
Very good content for software development. I can usually find new tech and indepth information, helped me to jump start various projects on my own without using external courses. Also helps me to organize the information by using notes, bookmarks and chanels.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to see more reviews on the courses. Otherwise I'm a very happy user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm involved in lots of new market POC projects which requires to understand new and evolving technologies that are not yet very good documented. Pluralsight conent are often very much on top of the trends.
Great Resource for learning a new tool or technology
What do you like best about the product?
It's a great resource for learning a new tool or skill. Most open source technologies and some licensed technologies can be learning efficiently through this tool. The best part is, it remembers where you left off, and also suggest videos you might be interested in based off your history.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not have resources for some licensed technologies like CA PPM, for example.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed by every tech company for it's employees. It isn't pricey. Check the course catalogs before signing up to make sure the courses will satisfy your requirements. Best in the industry, no doubt.
Great source of learning for any level
What do you like best about the product?
I like the tests to gauge your experience level so that it gives you the correct answers
What do you dislike about the product?
Some videos go too fast and require me to re-watch sections
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Opportunity to learn relevant skills, at work, at home, anywhere. I have been able to pick up skills that I'm interested in
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has a lot of trainings and built in integrations to other sites. Plural sight has great videos but other sights (that partner with Pluralsight) might have better programming tutorials.
Deep Learning made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
The library of content available to users -- there is literally something for everyone. The content itself is high quality and the method to administer tests to gauge user learning is seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is too much on a given topic that it may not be easy to know with which course to start with. Some course materials are higher quality than others in my opinion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management professional preparation and accredited coursework as well as javascript coding and technical learning.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a lot of content out there. Know what you want to learn before starting to browse the tool.
