Well designed course catalogue

Pros

The course catalogue is presented really well with plenty of room for clear descriptions and strong images which makes it easy to give people a detailed view of the training you're offering. You can also group products together and feature bundles right on the course catalogue homepage which is a nice touch.

Cons

The admin back end is definitely powerful but it would be even better with a bit of an update.
