Udemy vs. Lynda
Last Update: February 22, 2018
Hiya Folks,
Just wondered what everyone's opinion is on Udemy.com vs. Lynda.com? I've heard and read all kinds of stuff but thought I'd ask the community!
Thanks all,
Randy

I teach on Udemy :)
Any negative comments you may read are usually regarding a particular course not Udemy in general. I have some good reviews on my first course with 4.36 average star rating out of 5.

Hi Randy,
I don't anything about Lynda.com but some months ago I was looking at learning from Udemy but I was discouraged by quite a few negative reviews from previous students.
The negative comments were directed at the teachers. So basically I think it is just hoped you get a good tutor. That's what I read into it because the complaints were about the teaching practices. If it was one complaint I would take it with a grain of salt but there were many so I stayed clear.
I just saw Lynda website and if I were you I might want to try their free trial first. In fact, I might even give it a go.

Hi Randy, I haven't heard of Lynda before now. I took one course with Udemy it was okay but not extremely helpful. Perhaps choosing a different Udemy course would have been better.
Sorry I can't help with Lynda at this stage.
