"Great Email Etiquette Course"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

The platform is easy to use and understand. The descriptions provided within the course were short and easy to read. I appreciated that this course was not time-consuming at all. Although the course is short, the topics covered are helpful to anyone who wishes to write better emails and get read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

It might be better to add speed buttons to go at my own pace. Sometimes I had to restart the lesson because I didn’t finish reading the descriptions or listening to the dialogue. I wish there were more examples for different scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Effective eLearning Courses"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

I am very impressed by CustomGuide's eLearning content. It is put together in a straightforward, practical way that gives the user plenty of simulated experience with the application they are learning about. I recently took their course on Excel Advanced and was able to successfully learn about some of Excel's more complex features, such as pivot tables and pivot charts.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

No complaints from me. I haven't noticed any negative issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Insightful content for a career boost"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

I was recommended to opt CustomGuide Microsoft training sessions by a known friend of mine. Self-testing your knowledge and understanding by taking quizzes is an excellent way to learn faster. I really enjoyed the structure and format of learning by reading, watching, and practicing by myself. As well as the UI/UX interphase, which makes the experience of taking the course move smoothly while keeping a good record of my progress. I am very thankful because I was able to fulfill many knowledge gaps that I still had about using MS Excel. And by now, I feel pretty confident to develop more complicated tasks in this software for improving the efficiency of my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

As a suggestion: I think it would be good for users to be able to adjust the syllabus (required lessons) based on my real-life application. For example, if I am planning to use this software for businesses only, I would like to have the flexibility to take the specific lessons focused on my final application only, while the rest of the content would be still optional but not required for getting the final certificate.

"Valuable Time Management Training"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

I liked that it was interactive, which kept my attention during each lesson. It took me no longer than 2 hour to complete the entire course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

I wish I could move forward to the next lesson easily instead of going back to the main menu to select the next one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huge time saver!"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

All the training materials I need are created for me and simple to use. I used to spend countless hours making my own courseware manuals and they never turned out as nice as these. I just have to open the book and teach from it without needing a bunch of prep time. I also really like that I have the Word docs so I can tweak lessons or resequence content as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

It would be nice if there was a way to download all of the files for multiple courses at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Concise and perfect experience for learning"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

I'm all about the experience. I loved how the platform helped me learn more interactively. It's different from other platforms that I've tried before, where they overwhelm you with unnecessary information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

I would improve the quality of the videos, the conversation was interactive, but maybe the visuals have ground for improvement—also, the interface of how the questions can be styled better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SMART Goals Course"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

The course was very interactive and easy to navigate through. Also, the downloadable pdf available comes in handy when having to set monthly, quarterly, or yearly goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

I wish there were navigation buttons that allow you to go at your own pace (either faster or slower). And also, I think it could be omitted the testing of your previous knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"No fluff online learning"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

Other learning management systems add complexity where it isn't needed. CustomGuide's LMS is very straightforward and doesn't go crazy with bells and whistles that never get used. Their training philosophy seems to the same. I can tell they are thoughtful with their outlines and only include topics that are undeniably relevant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

I wasn't sure which level of Excel to start with so I took the Excel Basic course. It was a little too basic for me. I wish I had started with Intermediate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Extremely easy to use"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

The courses are broken up into short, managable topics. The skills assessments are very rewarding to complete. I like that I can see where I started before taking the tutorials and my improvement gains after. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

Should be an easy way to post my certificates to LinkedIn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Growth at all levels"
What do you like best about CustomGuide?

I turned to Custom Guide tutorials when a student intern needed to learn some excel basics and I had no idea how to start teaching Office products. I was so familiar with the interface from years of regular use, I found it challenging (and time consuming) to train someone at a beginner level. I referred the student to Custom Guide’s tutorial videos and they found them to be useful, clear, and easy to translate the directions for applied work. The short videos by labeled by task are the perfect tool for teaching specific skills needed for a product. I’ve used custom guide videos myself to learn pivot tables and am updating my resume to “proficient in excel” 😎 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CustomGuide?

I wish the videos had accompanying workbooks which had the example data set up for users to manipulate alongside the instruction Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
