Really close to being a 5 star

The platform is exactly what I was looking for after trying MANY other options. The biggest selling point for me is that my students can access my lessons from an app on their phone. White label would be great, and I will consider that later.

I love being able to set up "homework". I am using this to simply ask for their feedback after each lesson. Gives me the opportunity to correspond one to one with the student.

I didn't have any issues connecting it to my Paypal account.

It's easy to set up classes, though it was a bit confusing to set up lessons that drip out, one day apart. I ended up making a chapter for each lesson and could drip the chapter. Not sure why a series of lessons couldn't be dripped.

Three reason this wasn't quite a 5 star:

1. Some of my admin emails that were generated from the gurucan platform came marked as spam.

This gives me no other option but to export to my own autoresponder and/or send personal emails directly from my gmail account. Not ideal.

2. I love the idea of being able to drip out lessons and to send automated emails, BUT these two functions don't integrate very well. There's definitely room for improvement here.

3. Push notifications. It would be preferable to select by users name or even a tag when choosing who to send these to. As of now, can only send to ALL or all members of a certain course. If members have enrolled at different times are are getting drip content, this doesn’t work out to well.

Overall, this has tons of potential and I will continue to use with hopes that more great features and functionality will continue to roll out!

Teachable is rude, Kajabi is Expensive. Gurucan Helps

I was really hesitant to start building with Kajabi since I don't have all the content here yet, and their free modules could have been an issue. Last year I paid teachable for 4 months they didn't refund the unused time although I was impacted by covid. So I am glad I moved to a all inclusive product with Gurucan and now I can actually save to build some paid marketing budget to drive more traffic to my courses.

Gurucan offers all what course creators need!

Gurucan offers all what course creators need - even webinars. (althoug still in beta). Gurucan is a new player in the field of LMS, but with great features and an affordable price structure. It comes with integrations for big video hosting services as well as Paypal, Stripe and even Zapier!

Loving their mobile first philosophy

I really love the mobile first philosophy of Gurucan and the possibility to have a white label app! It's very affordable, easy to use and basically does everything that similar but more expensive platforms do.

I have been looking for an all-in-one…

I have been looking for an all-in-one teaching platform for a while and kept running into one issue or another. Gurucan is easy to use, offers great marketing tools, has an app, what else can you really ask for? Really excited to get all my courses up and running, my students are waiting!

A fantastic and affordable alternative…

A fantastic and affordable alternative to teachable. The onboarding is great. Honestly I refunded this a couple of times before I saw the true value in this platform. I love the integrations. The UX could do with some modernisation, it looking a bit dated for my tastes but don't let that stop you building a fantastic course! Its great value for money and can definitely give other platforms a run for their money!

I'm glad I found Gurucan!

I was looking for a course software similar to Kajabi or Thinkific and I came across Gurucan. Gurucan has so many features all in one and not to mention a mobile app to go aling with it. I am in the process of migrating my workshops over to Gurucan and the backend seemed easy to navigate and I am looking forward to updates and how the creators will take it to the next level. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a course builder with quizzes, memberships, integrations and so much more to check out Gurucan and don't let the offer past you by!

Amazing tool; Great Value.

Comprehensive tool with lots of features to make sure we got the most our of our courses. Easy Payment integration with Stripe and Paypal. A few consideration. No autosave, so sometimes if you have a network or browser problem, you may lose your work. Save often. Lot's of options and customization can be a bit overwhelming to choose from.

I was on the fence about buying yet…

I was on the fence about buying yet another LMS as I have two already. I was intrigued by the ease of use of Gurucan and how I can do more than my other systems. I also love the promise of what's to come. Great value for the money and ease of use for us non-techy folks.

Gurucan a promising LMS

Gurucan came at the perfect time for me. I hope to launch a course within two months and I will be doing so with this learning management system. It's intuitive and easy to use when you're setting up a brand new course. There are limited user interface templates that are quite basic. (Which works for me at the moment.)

Great value for money

I just bought Gurucan, and I love all the possibilities it offers. I was going to use Thinkific or Teachable to host my upcoming online course, but Gurucan seemed like an absolute no-brainer.
Yes, it is clear that it's still in development, but seeing how motivated and responsive the team is, I am sure that this is an investment that will pay off 1000x.

What I like the most:
- It's course, webinar, community all in one. When everything is finished (webinar is only beta now) it will save me SO MUCH money. I'm so excited for Gurucan to reach its full potential!
- You can create a sales page or an offer without having to actually make a page. Just add the right info and they put it together for you. Very handy!
- It comes with a mobile app! Not many course providers can say they do that, and it's a great plus that students can follow the course on their devices and that you can send push notifications through them.
- The roadmap where users can suggest new features and upvote the ones they like best.

What I miss/could be better:
- The email automation aren't great compared to ActiveCampagin, which is what I'm used to using, so I won't be sending many emails from Gurucan for now.
- It's still not possible to offer installment payments, which I'd really like. But I'm sure it's on the roadmap, so it's a matter of time.
- The webinar function is still in beta, so I'll probably wait to use it to make sure it won't fail me.

All in all, I really like what I've seen so far. Some functions need some polishing, but this is expected. I think Gurucan is a diamond in the rough, and I can't wait to see it reach it's full potential! If you're on the fence, go for it!

Easy to use; fantastic solution for digital products!

I am so excited to stumble upon Gurucan as a fantastic option to grow my online business. It is super easy to use, doesn't require you to have a background in tech stuff, it's very customer/user friendly, and not super expensive. I am very excited to launch my digital product with Gurucan as the platform!

All around a good platform with potential

All around a good platform with lots of potential in every essential area. The ability to use webhooks with Pabbly connect was a deciding factor for our adoption since integration with other resources is key. Also in this age in which content is easily stolen any moderately successful protection system is a requirement no longer an option- so their video piracy protection is great. Lastly, I think that one the strongest pluses for us is the integrated email marketing, based upon user activity with no need to use an outside platform.

A Feature RIch Platform for online courses.

It was a nice experience.
There was a need of the hour to address few important issues wrt features and functionalities that are required for a smooth running of online courses.
GURUCAN has tried and has been successful to address that issues.
I have subscribed GURUCAN and I am completely satisfied with the platform

Gurucan improves student satisfaction with courses

What I love about Gurucan the most is that it is not just "learning website" where people can purchase and watch learning videos, but that it also also has a marketing engine included: The ability to create automations to contact students/clients based on who watched/completed what step of which training. This helps with student/client orientation > comprehension > satisfaction > repeat orders.

Great product! Easy-to-use, integrated solution

I bought Gurucan through Appsumo to see if it could replace what I'm using at the moment.
Within minutes, I had my first course set up.
It's easy to use, and the course looks great.
I love that I can also set up challenges, webinars and memberships, thus eliminating the need to buy separate solutions for each one, spend hours tweaking a product for something it's not designed for, or have my students sign in to different platforms.
I'm looking forward to seeing more integrations, but so far I'm really happy with Gurucan!

Easy to create lessons

I was looking for an application to create my courses because I already have a Wordpress platform. So I'm happy to have discovered Gurucan. Everything I need to create my school and my courses are present (videos, text, quizzes, HTML, etc.). I can segment my lessons into chapters and lessons.

The user interface is professional and friendly.
The administration panel has been translated into French and my students have an interface in French as well.

It's a shame that quiz questions have a 200 character limit. In terms of speed, this could be improved but this is often the case with e-learning platforms.

To conclude, I find Gurucan to be a good deal and I have confidence in their development team.

It's what I need for my work

Application that has many uses.
It starts with video courses, webinars and email marketing.
I find these integrations convenient because it allows me to have everything I need in one ecosystem.
The servers are very fast and accept videos up to 2 hours long and there is no GB limit in uploading the videos.
Once uploaded, the videos are very quick to view.
The smartphone app is very convenient.
The assistance is exceptional.
Let's move on to the negative things.
The footer is not editable.
Company data cannot be added.
There is very little HTML control in landing pages and emails.
Payment methods are very limited: Stripe or Paypal.
