Moving through the Trainual Basics essentially taught me everything I needed to create my first subject. I started with a simple client connection overview and had the entire module complete in less than an hour. This included embedded video, hyperlinks, images, slide shows etc. Ease of use A+, Training A+, Quality of Support A+. This software is amazing.

I wish this was around when I was starting out as an entrepreneur because having been a founder, an advisor, and an investor in literally hundreds of companies, I know it’s extremely valuable. The only thing we can ever sell people in this world is time, and taking things off your plate is how you get time back.
