myQuest

Avantages

What I liked most about myQuest is its seamless integration of course creation and community building. It's easy to engage my clients and foster a sense of community, which has been invaluable for my coaching website. The user friendly interface has made managing my business a breeze, saving me time and allowing me to focus on delivering quality content to my clients.

Inconvénients

The only downside I've noticed with myQuest is that some features lack customization options. It would be great to have more control over certain aspects to better align with my brand. However, this hasn't significantly impacted my overall positive experience with the platform.

Avantages

The larger start-up cost covered all the hands-on onboarding and custom setup with our rep, then the ongoing cost is a per-user fee instead of a monthly subscription. That makes expenses much easier to manage for us, plus we don't have added expenses of tech support since "it just works." When Crown first started with myQuest, the trainings we provided to clients were not constant. So we didn't have a monthly bill even if we had no training that month. The course setup and design allows for clean and simple integrations in a multi-media format, including user reflection and interaction with others. Once the platform was in place and first training courses were launched we were in control of the learning flow, and our expenses. Once a learner/user registers for a course, the are in the system and still count as one even if they take another course. That's a win-win-win for Crown.

Inconvénients

There are some limitations in the design and workflow that we wish we had more customizing options. I realize there are reasons for this, including the active learning model that drives myQuest courses. However, the myQuest team continues to add custom features in that add value to the learning without adding distraction or unnecessary complication. They also help me understand alternative ways to get a similar result. Plus they continue to add customer connections to learn from each other as a myQ community.

Pourquoi passer à myQuest

myQuest handles all the technical side PLUS support (their strength) so we can focus on clients and client services (our strength). Learners/users are guided into bite-sized active learning by design. Clients consistently give us feedback that they LOVE the style and format as very busy leaders in their field. And it "just works" making happy learners; making us loyal clients. And again, the upfront cost of setup and ongoing per-user fee makes myQuest very cost effective for us. Year one cost may be similar to other LMS systems, but the ongoing costs rise and fall with users, not a fixed subscription.

Avantages

myQuest stands out as one of the most engaging LMS platforms I've worked with. Its linear, gamified structure aligns exceptionally well with the way we deliver our programs, providing a strong scaffold that supports and enhances the learning journey. The Resource Center is particularly valuable, offering a reliable ‘source of truth’ where all materials are easily accessible in one place.

What sets myQuest apart is its versatility—missions can be designed to be interactive in a variety of ways, which allows us to keep each stage of the program fresh and engaging. This flexibility means we can tailor the learning experience to suit different content and learning styles, ultimately creating a richer, more dynamic online program.

Inconvénients

There aren't many cons that I would associate with being a myQuest user. Nor have we received any negative feedback about the platform functionality itself. The only thing from a client perspective is that you can't have too many team members changing the program builder in the back end all at once as it tends to glitch, but that's easily rectified by planning times and ensuring communication between the people responsible for changes.

Avantages

I like that this software is interactive because it allows the experience to be more personal for participants. I also appreciate that there are a variety of ways to interact with participants, whether its through a quiz or a video or a journal entry, this keeps the learner stimulated and involved in the learning process, as opposed to just being a stagnant observer. The software is intuitive, which makes it an easy system to build, and it allows for creativity. This platform lets you design a unique curriculum that can change as needed for each additional Quest.

Inconvénients

The software has a lot of potential for growth and the MyQuest team is constantly refining and updating the software so if the software doesn't do something yet, it will in the future. Currently, clients earn points for finishing levels, but those points are not tangible or worth anything, so it is mostly just for amusement. I am also not sure how much exposure our videos get - it would be great if there was a way for MyQuest to help promote the videos -

Avantages

I really liked the service and the interactive ability between the content and the user — it allows me to understand and follow the user's progress and how the knowledge is being absorbed

Inconvénients

As of now, everything is working perfectly, including the communication and support, so at the moment, I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can say that I didn’t like

Avantages

-This is not an off the shelf learning platform. Thus, it needs to be customized to accomplish the specific task and services needed by each user/company. We found the MyQuest team to be very patient, understanding and competent in building the program/quest that specifically suited and met our needs.
The team at MyQuest was always responsive and went above and beyond to get us started with the platform. This was my first time using the platform, so the learning curve required some time. However, the MyQuest team made the process easier than I expected.
-The training sessions provided by [sensitive content hidden] were extremely helpful, especially for a new user like me.
-The technology tools provided are intuitive and easy to follow/learn.
-The platform is incredibly user-friendly and it didn't take long to get comfortable using it. [sensitive content hidden] was always quick to reply and provided whatever we needed.

Inconvénients

-The system is very comprehensive and the cost is reflected
-It takes a little bit of time to familiarize yourself to the terminology, but once learned, it all comes together quickly and easily.

Avantages

We are a non-profit and were looking for an education system that would allow us to onboard our new members with our education materials and track their progress. MyQuest fit all of our needs and has been a great success among our organization.

Inconvénients

We had no issues. Any problems were quickly resolved and emails always answered on the same day.

Avantages

I am glad that MyQuest has an explicit learning model that is closely aligned with the one I work with. This has made it much easier to design engagements that generate learning.

Inconvénients

There is currently a lack of ability for users / students to download their journal entries, but I have heard this feature is coming soon, so that it will help.

Avantages

MyQuest is convenient and simple to use. If you do get stuck, there incredible people like [sensitive content hidden] to help solve any issues you might experience.

Inconvénients

My only complaint would be the platform options you have to choose from in order to upload videos.

Avantages

Easy to create a content track and upload the material.

Inconvénients

The settings behind myquest are not so intuitive

Avantages

its easy to use, its interactive, we can create training is portions which saves time, and our staff can do the training in their space on their time.

Inconvénients

we haven't had any issues with My Quest, as with any new system its learning how it works that took some time.

Avantages

First I love the company and its team. I am a small business owner and my clients are all small businesses. I am also a recovering technophobe. Thus, I need an affordable (but awesome) product and plenty of tech support. The team at MyQuest is world-class. The software us super simple to use and help is always a call away. The format is unique (in many important ways) compared to others I have used. The pricing is ridiculously simple and affordable for even my small business clients. AND THE UPDATES AND NEW FEATURES COMPARE TO THOSE YOU'D EXPECT FROM A FORTUNE 500 COMPANY!

Inconvénients

I really can't think of anything other than there were times when my intuition about how to insert information was different from what needed to be done. It took me a while to get it right. Honestly, I think that my visual management liabilities had more to do with my challenge than the software itself.

Avantages

The team and the design of the product itself. The suite of products and services is uniquely powerful, and provides a complete eco-system. You would want to include the Connect aspect for learning in the flow of work, as well as the LMS for formal training, habit forming, community and coaching.

Inconvénients

No. Although if you're looking for traditional e-Learning, i.e. run, track and report - the system will work for that - but I would choose minimal feature platform if that is all you wish to do.

Avantages

The platform is engaging, easy to construct as a provider, as well as easy to use as a learner. The ability to divide the learning into levels that need to be unlocked makes it more fun and the idea of completing missions gives you smaller milestones of accomplishment

Inconvénients

It would be great to be able to further customize the platform whereby learners get feedback on their responses, whether or not they got something wrong and even possibly having to complete a questionnaire (timed)

Avantages

It's very user friendly for both the administrator and the learner. myQuest keeps on improving it and adding features which is great.

Inconvénients

Sometimes when using the back end, when the internet blips you have to start over on what you were working on.

Avantages

Fast and easy to use bomb proof software, well supported by an amazing team of people that love learning Tons of features with new ones released, developers that listen to user request for features that they actually deliver. This is too drawers software that is leading the pack in this space

Inconvénients

i am struggling to think of a feature that bugs me. it has just been amazing to go from idea to market so fast and so professionally.

Avantages

I love the support, the simplicity of setting up the Quests, and the ability to incorporate so many different media into missions

Inconvénients

I would love to be able to duplicate not just the quest but the resources that go with it

Avantages

I've tried at least a dozen membership site builder software (aMember, WishlistMember, EverLesson, etc.), and all of them are fairly technical and they all have a BIG learning curve. With myQuest, one can create their membership site - or Automated Life-Coaching process - instantly. It's very intuitive; and the customer support is EXCELLENT! If you have a question, a team member will reply to your email within minutes, or even get on Skype with you, if needed.

*** It has a cool functionality that mimics a coach's live involvement, all on autopilot. If a member (or client) doesn't complete their next assignment within a certain period - let's say 5 days - you can set the system to send out a video (or text message) congratulating them on their progress, and encourage them to continue with the next module or assignment. LOVE IT!!! :)

LOVE the platform; and LOVE the team!

Inconvénients

This software has very few limitations; though, if I had to pick one or two, I'd say, it'd be great if I could have more control over text size, type, and color. Currently there's only one size - yes, it's the perfect size... and perhaps if I had control over it, I'd make my courses more messy - this way maybe they are more elegant and consistent :)

Avantages

I like how easy it is to set up levels/missions in myQuest for each training program. The participants rarely have any difficulty in creating an account. myQuest also has daily/weekly reminders that you can set up in advance to be released to the participants to remind them they need to continue their assignments.

Inconvénients

nothing, I enjoy the ease of it all. The administrators are always on call or will email you back quickly and help solve any issues you might experience.

Avantages

It is intuitive and easy for end users to figure out. It has also been pretty easy (savev a few things) for administrators. It seems like MyQuest is working to consistently make updates and add new features which is beneficial to us and our clients.

Inconvénients

BrainTree is not the easiest to set up and integrate if you want to use your own account.

There were a couple of items that we were told would be easy to accomodate in the begining (such as multiple purchases by one user), but then it turned out they weren't available or it wasn't quite the easy fix we were looking for after we had started building it.

Teachable

Pourquoi passer à myQuest

The initial discovery meeting with LearnWorlds did not go well. And after meeting with Samuel at MyQuest, our bar was pretty high. LearnWorlds didn't seem like they really wanted our business.

Avantages

Very easy to use. A simple tool to build an interactive and effective course for students. Project management by the MYQUEST team is second to none, extremely efficient and supportive.

Inconvénients

I would like to have this product via an app.

Avantages

The greatest part about the platform is the ability to take our training fully online. No more scheduling flights, making sure there's enough booking for a training session, or taking risks in filling classes. Everything is fully automated, and the gamification function puts each mission into bite-size portions that aren't as overwhelming to the learner. On top of that, the team at MyQuest has been super responsive and worked with me through every obstacle as I've built the course.

Inconvénients

There were a few menus that were hard to navigate at first, but with a few directions, I was able to move right into loading course content.

Avantages

It is very easy to use. It is easy to upload different formats of content and it looks very professional. The customer support is great.

Inconvénients

Once the module is live, it can't be paused to make corrections or changes.

Avantages

I love the software’s interactivity, the user-friendly and beautiful design, and the personal coaching and the community features.
The features and usability of the software allow me to add different activities that are suitable for different learning styles.

I love that it’s easy to sign up and participate. Users can see their progress and know what’s the next step. The interface is addictive for learners. Every lesson is a Mission that encourages an active learning experience.

I love the admin interface when building the course, when tracking user progress, habits, etc. I am able to see exactly what each participant is doing. The course building process is intuitive and it’s very easy to upload materials and build the missions and the modules.

Inconvénients

d love to see more flexibility in changing things even after I build the course. I understand why it’s not possible but compared to other platforms I’ve checked it’s a small problem. Right now there are some things I can’t change or define myself, but I believe they will be added later on. I’d love to be able to control notifications I receive when coaching people 1:1.

Avantages

Variety of presentations available. Videos, pictures, questionnaires, etc all add to the exoerience of the users.

Inconvénients

Too easy for the user to loose work, if section is not complete.
