Skool vs SoftwareCy.io
Below we will compare how Skool vs SoftwareCy.io compares in features.
We will highlight the most important ones here as we provide a detailed table at the end of this post.
- It is essential to be able to use your domain. This provides your students with more trust. Skool does not allow this. You will need to use their URL. On the other hand, SoftwareCy.io allows you to point it to any subdomain or domain you wish, including an SSL certificate.
- Integrations: SoftwareCy.io integrates with Zapier for many things. Skool only provides a webhook that needs a developer from your side to make a configuration and use it.
- Lesson pages: Skool has a limited structure, and you also need to host your videos on Vimeo, Wistia, or another video hosting provider. They also do not allow any text formating or renaming their modules/weeks. This can be very frustrating if you are a professional online coach with many students. But, SoftwareCy.io can do all of this for you and with many options.
- Student information on SoftwareCy is very extensive and you also ask your students to sign the terms and conditions with an e-signature include other metrics on how often they access the course. This information is useful when you are fighting against a dispute. Skool provides a minimal amount of information if you are the admin/course creator.
- With SoftwareCy.io you will get more upsells, referrals, and testimonials from your students due to the optimized design for this purpose. Skool does not focus on this part.
- Is your course not in English but another language? Then the answer here is SoftwareCy.io because Skool does not support multi-language features.
- If you want to have quizzes and certificates, then you will struggle with Skool. On SoftwareCy.io you can have certificates and quizzes for your students and make them feel proud!
- Community: This is what Skool had started on when it was launched. Very soon, SoftwareCy.io will also launch the community feature so your students can see the course and the community under one platform. The plan for our community feature includes making posts and comments, notifications, chat, and the best part is going live within your community! This can enable you to host your Q&A’s within one platform, which is a game-changer. The first phase of our community feature is planned to be launched in October 2021 and the full release of all the other mention to be launched in Q2 of 2022. Once we release this feature, our pricing will increase significantly.
- Customizations: SoftwareCy.io provides any customization you can imagine but Skool does not do that.
Summary: If you are a beginner coach looking for something cheap to get started, then it is ideal for you to go with Skool. On the other hand if you have more than 30 students and you consider yourself as a professional online coach, you will definitely select SoftwareCy.io for the reasons mentioned above.
