WP Courseware 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

It seemed to have the most functionality and flexibility and was quite intuitive, not requiring a significant learning curve.

The lack of control over design/appearance. It would be far superior to have design options in the settings rather than go through tricky customisations via a manually-created php page.

WP Courseware makes it easy and simple to create courses. They have the best customer support. I highly recommend this plugin.

I have not had any issues with WP Courseware. This is a great product!

In terms of cost, WP Courseware is one of the most cost effective LMS systems for WordPress.

Apart from the price, there is really nothing to like about this software. The setup is clunky, getting it up and running is not intuitive. Being a PHP and WordPress developer, I thought I would be fine, but that was not the case. If you want to do anything beyond what they have thought, you are pretty much on your own.

In the market for a learning management system (LMS) that could be used on the WordPress platform, I purchased WP Courseware to use on two e-learning sites, one where online training is the entire focus and another one where training is just one component of the site. WP Courseware works well in both scenarios. Good Integrations: The developers of WP Courseware offer numerous integrations with other popular WordPress plugins. For ecommerce, WP Courseware is integrated with WooCommerce on my technology training site and integrated with WP eStore (the Tips & Tricks HQ version) on my medical field site. The ability to work with both of these shopping carts seamlessly was a big differentiator for me. I'm also pleased with the integration to my membership software of choice, WP eMember. Pleasant course-creation experience: The bells-and-whistles are actually functionality that no course creator wants to do without. For example, creating a certificate of completion is considered an extra in similar courseware tools, but it is a staple in WP Courseware. Customizable and Flexible: I like that the course outline page can be placed on any page in the WordPress site. WP Courseware uses "shortcodes," which gives me control over where courses, login boxes, progress bars, etc. show up. WP Courseware is flexible in how my students consume their training materials, whether to drip-feed course content, follow a linear progression or allow students to jump around at will.

In order to get certain functionalities, WP Courseware relies on a third-party vendor. That's not so bad but I think this particular functionality should be baked into the core plugin, even if they have to charge a few more dollars. That alleviates the need to add another customer support layer into the mix.

I appreciate the convenience of the product. Being able to create my own course without the headache of coding each section has been such a relief! Customer service was wonderful throughout my experience.

I haven't found anything that I dislike yet. So far my experience has been great.

There are a lot of things that can go wrong with a Word Press site - and after about 6 years, thankfully WP Courseware has been solid as a rock throughout the whole time, serving thousands of students and delivering hundreds of courses.

The integration with WooCommerce is essential to be able to use my payment gateways. The possibility of creating Online Diplomas for students is a great incentive. The support guys have a very good predisposition and quickly solve any problem.

I had some problems with the Fonts due to my WP template when creating the certificates for my students but the tech support solved it quickly :)

Ease of use - setup and managing. Love the grading functionality. Student front end works and looks great. Great customer service

Only reason for 4 on Quality, Functionality and Customer Support is that the certificates do not print logo, etc (custom fields). Customer Support tried hard to resolve the issue and referred the matter to technical\development. It has been months and no further feedback on the issue.

It helps my company deliver curriculum, and the UI experience for students looks sharp and works well.

Adding content to the platform is tedious, occasionally buggy, and a bit frustrating. I need a drink after I finish loading a course.

It is very easy to setup and to customize. And there are a lot of possibilities to use it. Nice plugin.

That there is no German translation available, so it is necessary that we translated by ourselves. Made more work
