Pros and cons

What Teachable does especially well — and the limits to anticipate.

Pros

Simple and quick to get started.
Built-in sales pages and payments.
Transaction fees removed from the mid tier.
Handles courses, coaching and digital products.

Cons

No free tier anymore.
Transaction fee on the entry plan.
Less deep customisation than some competitors.

Teachable: when it makes sense.

Teachable makes sense to quickly launch an online course offer; for deep customisation or a free option, another tool fits better.

Keep if

You sell online courses or coaching.. You want a simple, quick-to-launch platform.

Teachable becomes worthwhile when

You use it at least once a week
The monthly cost (€20) is small next to the time it saves you

Challenge if

You want a free platform.. You want a highly customisable white-label school.

Teachable becomes too expensive when

You use it less than once a month
A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do

Our verdict on Teachable.

Why this verdict

Decent

Teachable is fairly easy to replace with an alternative, a free tier to test before paying, clearly documented use cases.
