What differentiates Open edX from other similar products?
It is very different in terms of quality, at least in those that I have been, I feel that it has an added value and that is that the courses that they offer are very good, and easy to access for a fairly affordable fee to pay
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
the things that I have learned thanks to the Open edx courses have been wonderful, from simple things to more complex things and with a fairly broad level of learning since the professors who teach each course are very well informed of what it is to give a course with quality, very good indeed
What do you dislike most about this product?
what I don't like about open edx so far is that it's a bit inconvenient and slow to find a course using a device like a smartphone, it's a bit slow, everything else is fine, it's a very good platform
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It is simply one of the platforms that I am most happy to use, it always has high quality courses available and as long as I can recommend it to friends and family I will do it without worries, it has never failed me and that is why I have a lot of confidence in it

What differentiates Open edX from other similar products?
edX is a useful gizmo to hone skills. I usually use it to learn programming features, how information structures are enforced in varied programming languages, and the way to wrangle and analyze data. The courses are without cost; however, for a small cost a certificate is available. I actually have learned to write down my own Python scripts and perform data analysis. It’s a user friendly interface and therefore the courses are from high universities. Overall a good tool if you’re always attempting to learn new tools.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Its simple use is impressive, from the start you’ll know the complete structure of the course and its learning resources. As a student, the appliance is extremely intuitive, and it records all my progress. The simplest factor is that the app has total synchronization with the online version, therefore I can continue my courses from anywhere, each on my computer, and on my mobile device. The videos and tests load in no time within the mobile version and with such responsive design.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The sole disadvantage is that some activities, like the so-called “word cloud” cannot be executed within a similar app (from an iPhone), however, the remainder of them work without problems.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
A wonderful site, to search out support material with a good tutorial level, to start within the study and data of a subject of interest or novelty, either through courses or specializations in several topics, such as languages, social sciences, and alternative technologies.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Effective Service
