HubSpot Academy vs. Jhana

I would recommend HubSpot Academy as an 8. It is an 8 because it is very informative and a great start for learning HubSpot CRM. There is every topic you can think of with informative videos, interactive learnings, and practice quizzes. Topics like workflows, email marketing, sequences, etc. However, sometimes the videos are very long. They are more effective when they are shorter and there is more of them. It is a hit or miss when that happens. Also, the trainings do not go into great detail so it is better for starting learning the basics and functions.

If you are growing quickly and need to give first time people managers a resource to learn the basics this is a good tool. If you have established leaders this is not a good tool for them. It covers the basics and ABCs of people management and does not go much further than that.

For HubSpot Academy's usability, I rate it a 9 because it is very simple and easy to use. HubSpot Academy is very user friendly. You can pick a category like "email marketing" then you will have an intro video, follow up detail videos, practice quizzes, interactive practices, and some sections have a certification quiz at the end. It is very easy to navigate sections. The only reason I rate the usability a 9 instead of a 10 is because sometimes HubSpot Academy does not register the interactive practices.

I think it goes straight to the point. It doesn't have a million courses but it's enough with the ones they have because they're amazing.

I have not used any other products like Jhana and I am not sure of what else would be out there. So it is hard to explain how Jhana has stacked up. I would image it stacks up well against anything else. My guess is that other tools feel a lot more corporate.
