I have become a habitual user of Udemy for all my basic educational and informational needs. Other than perhaps Amazon.com Kindle books, I tend towards Udemy's instructors for a recent drawing course, finance course, etc. Some information given here tends to be too generic to be dependable and useful, but overall I like Udemy's course offerings and panel of instructors. The only concern I have with this site is the low prices they charge which may or may not be as scrupulous treatment of instructors as one can give a person who is educating others. The customer service here has improved significantly in terms of delay in response times to a support ticket and resolution of student issues in the last 2 years (since 2018), though I haven't utilized Udemy as an instructor so I cannot comment on the level of customer support shown for them. If you are an instructor I recommend you not give out much information and that you use caution unless you are not expecting high return on investment for giving the instruction to others.

Their discounts are awesome! Choose your category, look for the sources with the highest rating and duration, and you'll definitely find something interesting and created by professionals in the niche. Last time I bought 3 courses each at 10 bucks. That was the new year sale, but they have sales pretty often.

The support is pitiful. The quality of a lot of courses is close to 0. All courses are on a "LIMITED TIME" offer with a 90% discount that changes the price of a 1 hour video from 200$ to 10$ and the real price only changes during actual discounts like Black Friday. Really shady and horrible marketing in the long term. I am disappointed as this used to be my favorite MOOC but now they became a cash-grab company.

Great

La chemise était exactement comme indiqué. La commande est venue très vite. Je vais certainement commander chez eux à nouveau! La taille était parfaite selon le tableau des tailles. C'était une chemise Gilden sur laquelle elle était imprimée et pour moi, c'est l'une des meilleures.

There's a few courses that have high quality video but some don't. So I usually just buy courses when they are on sale because you don't know what you are going to get until you buy it.

I like the platform and feel like you get a good value when you catch courses on sale. Why not 5 stars? Several courses that I paid for, I found later on Youtube. When I mentioned it it was well past 30 days and past the refund point. SO just double check before you buy. Don't ever but things at the full price!

A bit superficial
December 19, 2018

I have enrolled in Udemy's "User Experience Design Fundamentals" course. I thought that Joe Natoli did a good job of teaching how to design web sites and mobile apps that users love and will return to again. I have some experience in this field, so for me the course appeared a bit superficial. I wish the course had a bit more depth and advanced content.

There is a whole bunch of tutorials on Udemy to choose from. Most are paid, some are free but not always good quality. Its possible to find coupons to get free or ridiculously discounted courses so you can always get what you want for a really small price. Solving issues during a course is pretty easy because other students can leave comments on every video and ask questions and solve problems together and if its really serious the instructor will help out too.

I have completed over a dozen courses from economics to software development. They have all been very good; some have been exceptional. I have about 20 more waiting for me.

Udemy provides an assortment of courses at a reasonable price. So far, the classes that I have used have been good quality and helpful. However, I have also purchased some courses that I eventually failed to complete because they really didn't match my needs compared to the description

I took a couple of courses from Udemy and liked them--it's much like Amazon in that people are allowed to load their courses up and Udemy doesn't censor them or vouch for them. Just as you might get a bad self-published book on Amazon, you may get bad courses on Udemy.

The good thing is that if you get a bad course you are able to get your money back. 100% back. No questions asked. So there's no risk in signing up for courses.

I liked the model so much--I'm all for letting people sell what they want and letting the market dictate how long they stay in business--that I made some courses and put them on Udemy.

Both buying and selling on Udemy have been great experiences for me. I've learned a ton and I've made a decent amount of money. I'm totally pleased and have told all my friends and family that they should be buying and selling on Udemy. It's a great marketplace and the staff are wonderful. Really first class.

I'm a literary agent and my job is to make my authors money. I can tell you this: Udemy pays course creators more than publishers pay authors. It's a wonderful deal.

You do get what you pay for. However, I love the selection of courses and I would not be able to afford all that I purchased here anywhere else. I took a great intro yoga course and on my way to learn Excel and improve my Microsoft Office skills. We will see how my hip hop class is. Some complain about the course quality, but really when you pay $10 - $15 they aren't going to be stellar or the best around. But for budget courses, I think you get what you should expect. Happy Learning all.

Udemy makes it easy for you to find the education you want, at a price you can afford. As a software programmer it is important for me to stay up to date on new updates to the languages I use, and Udemy has a large catalog of courses to help me. I've even picked up some new languages because the courses of fun and easy to use. Udemy itself is smartly constructed to give you access to your courses and course material easily. I highly recomment Udemy.
