Q: I'm kicking the tires and I am trying to build a course on Knorish with my existing Thinkific course.

1. Are there plans to improve (greatly) on the Page Builder? The editing tools and the boxes are frustrating to work with.

2. Are there plans to be able to bring over formatted text (Word, or any other editor) and retain the formatting? Currently, when I copy and paste, it's one big blob in a single paragraph. I'm not going to want to format EVERY text I paste into the editor. Please don't suggest PDF ... See question #3.

3. Are there plans to be able to embed/add audio files in the page builder? Some of our courses are in a book style with an audio file. They will need to listen to the audio and follow along in the text and review the images.

I'm not trying to put down the application but, it feels like it's still in BETA. I'm going to revisit the offer to make sure if I get this, I can function as I do with my current platform.

A: Thanks for feedback. I would like to highlight one common factor impacting your experience with the page builder, you'll see that every visual page builder or website builder has a different UI and function set for editing the pages and there still isn't a consensus on which one is best, 29% of the web runs of Wordpress, where even with the new theme builders, you'll need a steep learning curve to build a page and a similar case would be seen with Wix and others. In this light, I am addressing your questions here :

1. We believe, based on heavy benchmarking and with the DNA of a leading design consulting company (for Fortune 500 companies) from our previous startup, our page builder is far more feature and template rich in comparison to the other competitors. However, we do understand that different customers build different preferences for different designs and with that in mind, we'll keep upgrading all features on the platform with time.

2. There are no plans to bring formatted text in the visible future and the reason for that is that unlike our competitors, we offer Android / iOS apps as well as responsive use of the entire platform on multiple devices where it becomes imperative to create formatting inside the editor to make sure that it is compatible for all devices and apps too.

3. Yes, this is a pipeline feature and we'll release audio files based features on the platform in our next product pipeline release.

And to highlight the Beta question, let me highlight that we have imported hundreds of creators from global platforms like Thinkific and Teachable because of the richness of our templates, live Zoom integration, mobile Apps, ease of use and Funnels.

As a platform, we have thousands of creators already using the platform for more than last 18 months including celebrities, influencers, organizations from around the world, Universities, Schools and even one of the largest stock markets in the world.

I appreciate your time in responding. It's a shame that the text feature and editing features are not that important to the design of the software. With that, I'm going to have to pass. I won't leave a review because I didn't purchase. But with my experience with different and very successful platforms and my courses being very successful being text/audio/video driven, I would give this platform a 2 taco. Good luck in the future.

I will keep an eye on the product and these questions to see if the text editing part changes. I'll also close my support ticket because I broke it in the first 15 minutes making a course. I was just embedding a link and PooF! broke.

Thanks for sharing your valuable feedback.

We are definitely striving for the best in class experience on the Knorish platform & your feedback would definitely help us to improve upon it further.

With regards to the error you experienced while trying to embed, it might have been due to a bad code (with style) however, we have now enabled the option for you to embed bad codes as well hence, I would recommend you to give it another try and in case, you require any additional assistance or have any further concerns, feel free to reach out to us as at support@knorish.com with the subject line ''Appsumo LTD’’ and we will be glad to assist.
