It's good for those needing to give certificates to people around the world. At first the monthly fee seemed to be an obstacle for us, but when we realized the savings printing and mailing certificates it was well worth the fee

Very happy with the smooth rollout and the benefit and value added for our diplomates. Technical and process support is available for issues, concerns, and clarity for those seeking help. Reputation, ease of the initial starting batch, and being user friendly were all factors in choosing a digital badge that matched our goal, to expand the services we can provide.

We had a problem and an extension request for the platform. They had implemented both in a good time.

Alternatives Considered
They are all very well suited for online education use. Accredible fits well with Thinkific (not Talent) but we have encountered some problems, but are unsure on whose side the issue stemmed from. However, Accredible customer support was quick to help us solve the problem which we appreciated. Accredible, while not an LMS, plays well with it, and makes our lives easier and the students more robust.

Our association really did not have much choice because the LMS we utilize only integrates with Credly. We have looked into and been approached by Badgr and Accredible, but have not investigated them much because we need the LMS integration for easy of issuing. In the future we may look into them when our Credly contract expires, just to cover our due diligence needs.
