"Technology Skills Ready Platform!!!"
What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

I like the Role IQ and skill IQ feature a lot in Pluralsight. Also, apart from this, Pluralsight provides free access to the certification practice questions and has interactive courses and projects available to ensure that whatever you learn sticks.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

The only thing I would expect from Pluralsight is to make the hands-on labs feature available even for individual customers. Even though that feature exists in the platform but still is not available for individual members, again, if it is included in the membership, maybe by charging a little extra, I would assume it would be appreciated by the Pluralsight Skills individual users Community.

Recommendations to others considering Pluralsight Skills:

If you want a single platform that will cater to your needs, then you seriously should be using this platform. Excellent hands-on courses, Role IQ, and Skills IQ are the features that make this platform stand apart from the competition.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pluralsight Skills has always kept me up to date with the ever-changing technology World. Be it Certification Preparations or just learning a technology you want to get exposure to, skills helps you in the same. They have expanded library of courses ranging from development to infrastructure and business management etc(more than 7500 +). Hence It became my go-to platform for studying.

"Pluralsight"
What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

Pluralsight's Skill IQ feature is a game-changer for professionals seeking to guage and enhance their tech skills. It helps learners to set the bar before they start their training, and eventually assess knowledge retention. Once the initial assessment is completed, learners are provided with learning recommendations and paths to alleviate the burden of a self-driven catalog search and connect them directly to the content that will move the dial for them. Similarly, it enables managers and leaders to cofidently keep a pulse on the skills their teams have aquired and areas of opportunity.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

I struggle to find many dislike about the Pluralsight platform and offerings; However, it is a very specific scope and currently is taylored best to technical professionals. I believe the company is working towards broadening its scope with content geared towards general users and leaders to enable them to broaden their technical literacy, but this is a work in progress.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our business uses Pluralsight content and Skills assessments for the ongoing learning of our technical professionals.

"Setting and Reaching Goals Using Plualsight Skills"
What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

In addition to the vast library of great training videos, training teams can be created where team managers can use analytics to review the progress being made by their team members. Training goals can be established at the start of the year using Skill IQs to provide focus on gaps that may exist allowing team members to learn at their own pace through personalized learning.

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

Since it's subscription based, there's no lifetime access to the courses. That being said, it does allow for access to updated versions of the content so it's always up to date and new courses are being released regularly. However, it would be nice if you were notified when videos were being replaced or updated are currently reside in your Company channel.

What problems is Pluralsight Skills solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides an easy to use platform that team managers can use to help guide their team member's technical growth through structured, yet customized learning.

"Truly Valuable"
What do you like best about Pluralsight Skills?

With being for relatively a long time in the IT industry and mostly working on the same technology stack can make a person feel that they know it all. But the reality is that though the technology might be the same, the eco system has changed a lot and our adaption and learning should be continuos to stand out from the rest. Skills give us a very valuable assessment of where we stand. Especially with the degree of difficulty increasing when one answers a question correctly, brings out the best in an individual. The best part is that once we are done with the assesment, it does not leave us high and dry but speaks about our strengths and gaps and to top it it recommends courses (sometime clips) for us to go back and upskill ourseleves in the respective areas. The ability to retake it the second time is also a cool option so that the users can better their first attempt score. The view results is also another good option (most of the platforms dont do this so as to hide the questions) but it gives complete transparency .

What do you dislike about Pluralsight Skills?

With being very new to the platform, i am yet to find one.
