Codecademy from Skillsoft vs. CodeMonkey

Codecademy from Skillsoft is well suited to persons who wish to quickly acquire practical knowledge and skills that can be immediately applied to support their work or project. On the other hand, Codecademy from Skillsoft is probably not appropriate for those looking for a more theoretical approach to the subject matter.

I think for a lot of people who are not adept at coding, this product allows them to be still able to teach coding with confidence. The user-friendly interface makes it easy for people of all ages to attempt things they have never seen before with confidence. The results we have seen so far have been amazing. I think the scenario where we spend a lot of money having outsiders do our coding will come to an end with the knowledge my trainees will have with this software in due time.

• Codecademy from Skillsoft makes it easy to track your progress, not only within a course, but also relative to your weekly target.

Codemonkey made learning easy and fun. I think it has a leg up on the other software mentioned because it really tries to find a fun way to associate learning a difficult topic with a fun tutorial. The other software options were far more costly than Codemonkey, which makes this an even bigger win.
