GoSkills Reviews

Pros

What really stood out to me was how concise each lesson was and how each one focused directly on a specific skill or topic.

Cons

I wish there were optional deep dive modules available maybe beyond what's required for the certificate mainly for learners who want to specialize further in a particular area of the software they are studying.

Pros

The tool is packed with great tools. Also it is very smart overall and can be used for lots of different jobs.

Cons

Mastering all the formulas takes real effort as it definitely requires a lot of repetition and hands-on practice to get comfortable with them.

Pros

Using GoSkills feels natural or in other words i'd say it is pretty easy to use. As each course includes video and text materials, along with quizzes and a final test. The topics are organized logically, the instructors explanations sync perfectly with the visuals and the content is presented in an interesting way, often using real-world examples. Plus lessons are split into 15 to 30 minute parts which helps you maintain focus. A progress tracker lets you see how you are doing and you earn badges as you advance which is a nice motivational feature. Moreover finishing a course gets you a certificate and they even guide you on how to add it to your LinkedIn profile which is a thoughtful, user-focused detail.

Cons

I would not call them cons but I think it would really improve the courses to include more real-world examples. In the Team Leadership course, for instance adding famous case studies, recommendations for tools to apply the concepts and more personal stories from experience would help make the theory feel more concrete and easier to learn.

Pros

The training is thorough and put together with a professional structure.

Cons

Everything about the course was excellent though I felt the pacing was a bit slow for me. I ended up playing most of the videos at 1.25x speed to keep things moving.

Pros

I really like how you can engage with the courses and the quiz format because it solidifies what you have just studied. Plus the do-it-yourself exercises are great for getting a better grip on each topic.

Cons

Having smoother integration with LinkedIn would be a big help especially for users like me who want to recommend the platform or share their achievements. As it would add a lot of value for people active on LinkedIn.

Pros

Everything is very clear and simple to follow along with especially with the video tutorials.

Cons

I just wish there was a bit more detail on specific commands and keyboard shortcuts. Since I am not a daily user, I sometimes find myself getting a little lost without those reminders.

Pros

Being able to log in on my phone is super convenient. Since I travel frequently for work I can listen to a training module while waiting at the airport or boarding a flight.

Cons

Honestly what's not to love about this software? It is a great tool!

Pros

I am really excited to have discovered just how much Excel can do and to pick up new tricks I can use in my daily tasks.

Cons

Though I am excited to use all the features I've learned but I am a little worried that some are quite complex and might be hard to remember and apply on my own later.

Pros

It is easy to find our way around and the lectures are brief and focused.

Cons

I wish there were more course options focused specifically on information technology subjects.

Pros

I love how smoothly the programs run and how easy it is to resume right where I paused my learning.

Cons

The only hiccup I ran into was during the final exam for the advanced Excel course as the entire course vanished from my dashboard and I had to search for it again to complete the test.

Pros

The platform is easy and simple to use. Also the videos it provide are brief and easy to follow and the exercises feel useful and relevant to real tasks.

Cons

Some functions in Minitab are not explained very clearly which makes it hard to figure out how to perform the same tasks again in the software later on.

Pros

GoSkills course material is thoughtfully put together and the delivery by the instructor is top-tier. I must say Truly impressive work.

Cons

The course only covers a couple of DAX functions like Calculate and All which feels very limited. We really need lessons on at least five or six key functions such as Filter, SumX and Related to make it truly useful.

Pros

I like how every lesson is built the same way from short videos to practice files, notes, a quiz, a big test and a paper for finishing. Also it is easy to find your way and there is a huge list of different things to learn.

Cons

It would be great if completing certain courses could directly prepare you for official certifications like PMP or Microsoft credentials. I'd also like to see more advanced-level options, since many courses seem to focus mainly on the fundamentals.

Pros

The lessons are divided into small parts usually four to eight minutes each and they go in a sensible order. The Lean Six Sigma course I took built each concept well which as per me is the right way to teach it. Plus each part ends with practice puzzles and papers to make what you learned stronger and the teacher shares helpful real life tips.

Cons

Having a few more practice questions would be helpful and I think the final exam could definitely include some new material instead of just repeating the exact questions from the end of lesson quizzes.

Pros

It is simple and accessible for anyone looking to learn something new or build their skills independently.

Cons

Maybe they could create a dedicated app for frequent users as that would make it even easier to access courses on the go.

Pros

The lessons were short but moved a bit quickly for my taste. Umm it was not quite what I was anticipating.

Cons

To me the pace felt a little too quick and I think having more detailed examples would have made the material easier to follow.

Pros

GoSkills leadership content is practical and concise, perfect for a manager who's short on time.

Cons

I'd prefer fewer quizzes especially if they do not feel essential to the topic being taught. When I am focused on training and absorbing new information, mandatory quizzes can sometimes interrupt the flow.

Pros

I like that after every video you can take a tiny three-question quiz to see if you understood it right away. Plus being able to download practice files with each lesson to try the skills is also a great part. The videos show you how to do things step by step in a clear way and I really like how the lessons are sorted into groups like needs work and refresher based on a check-up test you take first.

Cons

Since I have not tried any other online training platforms I do not really have a point of comparison to know what might be missing or where improvements could be made.

Pros

One thing I love is how the beginner-level content flows smoothly into the next level. It is really motivating and fits easily into my daily routine.

Cons

I get so excited looking through the catalog that I want to sign up for every single course at once!

Pros

This program is absolutely worth the investment. I have thought about learning advanced Excel and VBA for a decade and this is exactly the right fit. For the first time, I feel sure I'll actually learn the skills necessary to be successful.

Cons

There are so many interesting topics available that I find it hard to wait until I finish one before diving into the next.
