While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Customer Service Fail

I found myself locked out of my active account while trying to get the renewal receipt for my work's Visa reconciliation. I reached out for support several times. MindTools was unable to successfully assist with my password reset. I asked for support in emailing me the invoice/receipt and did not hear back. I sent two follow-up emails. I guess I annoyed the support team because a week later, I am still waiting on someone to respond back to me. I'm very frustrated at the lack of support and at this point am ready to cancel my subscription.

Learning on the Fly

Learning materials are bite size, quick to work through and easy to digest while still retaining all the links to do furthermore comprehensive study. The weekly buildup of knowledge keeps what you've learnt at fore of mind and embeds the application to your day to day. The videos are pretty neat too.

I would like to be able to do bite size learning at a cadence that works for me. So if I have time to do two modules in one sitting I would like that option!

Scam subscription service - stay away

Non-responsive customer service and a marketing scam. Push the free trial messaging, and then make it impossible for you to cancel. Stay away - the negative reviews on here show how many others have had problems.
