I and my employees have benefited much from the free courses. There is no need to pay to study them - just for the certificates. We have no need for the latter, however, for we have established our brand already. > > **Cons**: Prices for certificates too high - maybe decrease it for developing states. ----- ### "The best hosted training solution - if you're into that." — 4.0/5 > **Bruce** | *5 February 2019* | Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: OpenEdX is the most feature-complete on-prem teaching and learning solution. It takes a different approach to developing curricula and materials, using the X-blocks system. The feature list of OpenEdX is impressive by itself, but the xblocks system of incorporating relevant material makes OpenEdX the best choice. > > **Cons**: The one thing we wanted from OpenEdX that it couldn't provide was integration with the discourse discussion platform. Instead an internal discussion / peer help system is used, which is of lower quality than Discourse. > > We have had good experience both developing the service as well as building content for it. Our learners are extremely happy. ----- ### "its's good when you have the commitment" — 3.0/5 > **Khalil** | *1 August 2019* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it provides​ me with almost any field of study I'm looking for and it happens to get educated from really smart people sometimes for free > > **Cons**: I would prefer if there was a way to make animation lectures which means the professor writes the contents and there will be animations who explains it. I feel sometimes animations can remove the boring feeling of me. > > in general, I'm thankful that there are some people who are really nice to provide ​free education for others for free and it's always good to learn and continue learning ----- ### "A great option to improve your knowledge" — 5.0/5 > **ALEXANDRA DANIELA** | *17 February 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: EDX it is plataform that offers a lot of courses for professionals and people who wants to improve their knowledge in some specific topics like technology, marketing, data anylisis, history, languages, development, nature, and so many other topics. In my case as a Geographer I like to take course about data analysis because I can learn about the new tendencies in the data analysis and start using new tools like R programming, this tools combine with GIS are an amazing tool to analyze spatyal data and understand some patters of human behavior using socioeconomic information. > > **Cons**: When I start using EDX I did not notice that most of the certificates are for pay, so I start and finish a couple of course and at the end they send me a mail telling me that I have to pay for the certified and unfortunately I have not money to pay for it, and that is a problem because I did not prove to anyone that I pass a course in this plataform, I think they must offer free certificates for people of some countries. > > It was awesome for me learn for free about data analysis with Excel and R software, the tutorials videos, the text, all the interaction with other user was an amazing and very grateful experience for me, I absolutely reccomend EDX for courses to everyone. ----- ### "Self hosted version from popular learning center edX" — 5.0/5 > **Anton** | *20 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Same feature as online edX, great interface, easy to use for user. easy to manage for administrator. Easy to clone from edx's github repository > > **Cons**: It a bit difficult for users, need special software and hardware requirements. Installation itself is very difficult too. Need to trial and errors. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/162689/openedx?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/162689/openedx) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
