Having used Teachable & Thinkific and then in 2020 having made the switch to FreshLMS, I am glad I stumbled on to Gurucan. This is a learning platform for students from all levels and my use case is primarily for high school students. Very pleased that they offer both web and app versions of the platform as this was a major shortcoming I faced with my earlier LMS. I don't need white labelling of the app for my use case but good to know if business picks up then the option to white label is there along with support for the same.
The web platform is modern, simplistic interface and helps students navigate easily. Making the course itself is easy. I noticed that there is a template to choose from but I started from scratch and the flow made sense and was easy. There is an inbuilt chat function for discussion. I will be using Continually (an earlier AS deal) as a VA. The need for a student discussion centre that is much more robust would be my immediate request to the team so that they don't have to leave the platform to a third party for this and it ensures the learning is richer. The inbuilt CRM has options for homework and chat. Yet to explore this fully but I am convinced there is a lot of potential to evolve this to accomodate the various discussion forums. No data yet on the analytics and of course no look at the certifications yet but I believe they are making auto certifications available later this month. Finally, I am glad that there is no limit on admins, authors or users. That is amazing, thank you!
Support is excellent. They have answered nearly 200 questions since lauch day and love it when it happens on AS deals (becoming a rarity these days actually)
Overall I am very pleased with this AS deal. I really need only two codes but just to be on the safe side might go for the full house.
Thank you AS & Gurucan
ps: if the team reads this, could you let me know what is the meaning behind Gurucan? (a question asked by one of my students)
