Pros

  • Thank you Mastera and Crew for building such a great platform and for all the updates you have made and more that are on the way. It’s a Win-Win for us all.

  • The ability to have an LMS, a website, and an email and marketing service all in one makes it very attractive. The zoom integration for meetings and live class is great, in such an easy way.

  • Has fantastic potential and I will continue to tell everyone about it. I am definitely converted and I am happy to use it.

  • Mastera is a great platform for course creators and those who wish to offer bookable online classes. It has a great onboarding process, so you can have your platform set up in just minutes.

Cons

  • The other products that I tried were frustrating and unattractive.

  • Calendar integration with Google isn't available now, but it will go live in the following weeks. There is no quizze functionality and no certifications at the moment, but I believe both will come.

  • Your clients can watch one of your videos, and you can leave a call to action for booking an appointment directly from the video. Mastera has a built-in calendar, and you can charge for live sessions.

  • Besides that, for my use case almost everything exists. Integrations using zapier et al is missing right now, but they have said that it is due to be released soon.

"The LMS made for video creators!!"

Overall: Mastera is the answer to my LMS prayers! I've already hopped from several other LMS's, simply because the front end experience for my students looked'scrappy' and cheaply made, which made my courses feel just as cheap. Mastera's ability to provide a beautiful blank canvas for my courses makes it shine from the others along with it's easy to build lessons for the admins.

Pros: - beautiful front-end/back-end UX - internal video hosting - not buggy - clean look and feel - easy editor - made for video creators - exciting roadmap

Cons: - No quiz option (coming soon I believe) - No written content sections - couldn't see a section to manage students (might just be me). - Needs affilite management (coming soon) - integrations (coming soon)

Alternatives Considered: Kajabi and Thinkific
Reasons for Choosing Mastera: Clean design and better pricing.
Switched From: Graphy
Reasons for Switching to Mastera: Spayee font and back end is still a little clunky

"Perfect for My Part-Time Hustle"

Overall: Positive. The other products that I tried were frustrating and unattractive.

Pros: Live classes, VOD, scheduling, e-commerce, LMS, CNAME, payment gateway, and SMS and email campaigns. I'm sure that there are more but these are the features that I use. In short: 1. Mastera met all of my requirements 2. Easy to Use 3. Provided an attractive end product

Cons: The tutorials were very difficult to find. Also, would prefer PayPal integration. The only option is Stripe.

Reasons for Choosing Mastera: Marbel is a good alternative for course delivery. Live workshops are the cornerstone of my business. MAstera could deliver everything that my business required.
Switched From: SubHub
Reasons for Switching to Mastera: Mastera provided all of our needs under one system. The others required multiple integrations that was jeopardizing my workflow efficiency.

"New user of Mastera"

Pros: I'm excited about mastera because i need to move my existing course over to a less expensive "home," and Mastera is built for video. I'm also excited to learn how to use it to sell live classes. Love that it integrates with Zoom.

Cons: So far, I'm having a little bit of a slow time setting things up. I'm sure there's a learning curve, and they also plan to add more features... but for now it's going slowly.

"Mastera isn't a typical LMS - it is much more!"

Overall: It is easy to set up and to use. Mastera allows you to grow your content consumers from a free plan to monthly paying customers. You also can make a shop, not only for digital products, it is possible to sell physical products like merch T-Shirts. One of the best features is adding video and audio files from YouTube, Vimeo, Loom or upload your files directly to Mastera. Your clients can watch one of your videos, and you can leave a call to action for booking an appointment directly from the video. Mastera has a built-in calendar, and you can charge for live sessions. You get also a built-in solution for email-marketing to sell your products directly from Mastera. It is full blown business in a box.

Pros: I was looking for an all-in-one solution to sell my online courses and some physical merch. I don't want to have different platforms for LMS, email marketing, and a shop system. And I prefer a clean design. Mastera solves all my needs perfectly.

Cons: Calendar integration with Google isn't available now, but it will go live in the following weeks. There is no quizze functionality and no certifications at the moment, but I believe both will come.

Alternatives Considered: Graphy and Kartra
Reasons for Choosing Mastera: Best over-all-experiece for my needs for a great price-point. And I love the clean design.
