What is our primary use case?
Edly serves as a trusted learning solution for strategic growth in my organization. There were many areas that required training of the workforce, and Edly helped us significantly. The certificate programs boosted my team's confidence and acted as a testimonial for their skills. Employees could complete courses at their own speed and pace, saving them from extra pressure. The content is enriching.
Edly also helps bridge the gap in certain topics that our business needs to provide to employees to stay up to date with the latest skills. It also helps with onboarding. When a person is lacking in a skill or knowledge, Edly is a resource to help them gain that knowledge.
How has it helped my organization?
Edly has positively impacted my organization by giving our employees confidence to perform well, especially when dealing with critical projects. Because they have the skills, they can tackle the projects very effectively. It serves as a one-stop shop for employees to complete professional learning. I encouraged employees to use the system to learn things that are of their particular interest, which increased our productivity. Edly is also a very helpful tool because it quickly decreases the learning curve of teams and individuals, resulting in faster improvements of team performance.
A specific example showing how Edly improved productivity is that productivity has increased from 40 to 65 percent.
What is most valuable?
The best features Edly offers are helpful study materials, an intuitive user interface, and flexible e-learning from home.
What I appreciate about the study materials is that the learning management system is valuable in understanding new skills. Many team members have stated that the wide variety of study materials and videos provided by the platform has been very helpful. The intuitive user interface is great and very easy to navigate, making it very easy for us to use even for non-technical and new users. This has made it easy for users to access training materials and progress at their own pace.
Edly also features very well curated content, certification, time management, and cohort support for staff. Staff professional development is excellent. A specific team that benefited the most from Edly's certificate programs is the one focused on professional development for staff, which we use weekly in-house and within the community. It fills the need for individuals who would otherwise need to attend in-person events where they would have to leave campus. This also provides a large variety of options for everyone. Some of our leaders are able to fully participate as well.
What needs improvement?
Edly can be improved by addressing the limitation in integration with third-party platforms.
I wish Edly could integrate with third-party platforms for language improvement, and there should be multiple languages available.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Edly is very stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Edly is very scalable because it has been able to handle my organization's growth perfectly.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support has been very proactive and responsive. I am very happy with their service. They are quick to offer a solution to any problem and they are available 24/7.

My experience with the configuration process was smooth and efficient.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment as it has upskilled the existing talent of my organization. It has helped reduce behavioral issues among employees. Edly is also a great tool because it is truly worth using, as Edly has some really great collaborators. Certification courses are worth the price because they help you with your work professionally, especially when dealing with complex projects.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is cost-efficient.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Edly, I evaluated other options, specifically Coursera and Graphy.
I switched from Coursera and Graphy by Unacademy to Edly because, with the exception of graded assignments and certification, Edly has validated certified courses that are credible in the market. It also offers a free course audit option. The best reason to try Edly is probably their 14-day return policy. With all these beneficial points, Edly is acting as the ideal choice in the learning market at this moment.
What other advice do I have?
The advice I would give to others looking into using Edly is that it is really helpful for learning and growing your skills in both personal and professional aspects. It helped us learn all the business concepts that were required for our company. We chose certification after auditing a number of courses. It was definitely a terrific tool for professionals who are self-learning.
I have additional thoughts about Edly as I love the certification courses and the variety of courses available. This makes it a very great choice for personal or professional growth and self-learning in the market. My overall rating for this product is a 10 out of 10.
