Many individuals are taking help from the online learning platforms to get them through this lockdown. Because people cannot afford to compromise on learning. In the beginning, some people feared that the availability of the Internet will also become limited. However, the “Keep America Connected” pact helped ensure the continuous availability of the Internet to its residents. I have been lucky to have subscribed to Spectrum as some Spectrum bundle specials offered a great discount.

Here are some online learning platforms that I found useful so far.
Thinkific
This platform comes in both the free and paid version. You would not need the paid version in most cases. He company operates with the mission of empowering the education empire of the individuals. The best thing about them is the user-friendly features that they have. Apart from that, you will also like it for the email marketing tools, and the extra-ordinary customer support that they offer round the clock.
Google Classroom
You would also want to consider the virtual classroom that Google introduced. It is becoming a very popular platform hat then teachers and students are making use of. It is a great tool for live sessions where students and teachers can connect in real-time. However, if a student misses a class, he can always catch up on the lecture with the recorded videos and notes available.
The student also gets access to homework and assignment. Some of the tools that make it easy for the instructors to deliver lectures include integration with Google Docs, the video and audio conference feature, and the ability to make the best use of your Google Drive to store stuff.

Docebo
Docebo allows you to customize the platform as per your needs. Without any exceptions. It is easy for students to interact with their instructors and with each other using this platform. It is a Learning Management System that means that you can keep track and also distribute all the online courses available. It can be for anyone including the clients and customers.
Learners come together using this platform and indulge in conversations with experts to improve their knowledge. This is great as it is not a one-way broadcast platform where instructors just teach or deliver a lecture and leave. If Docebo supported this model, it would have failed miserably. As lack of conversation makes it difficult for individuals to question.
The platform has an easy to use interface. You will find it easy to operate Docebo. It also supports many third-party integrations.
WizIQ
If you are a student, this platform might not be that helpful for you. WizIQ is more helpful for the teachers. It allows the teachers to reach a great audience. The best part is that there is a mobile version available for the platform. This means that you can deliver a lecture from wherever you wish to. If you are an instructor or are looking to train people, WizIQ can help you deliver lectures and sell your courses online as well.
As far as the price is concerned, the company does not display its prices anymore. You will have to get in touch with a sales rep to help you with that.

Elucidat
Are you a creator of e-learning tools? You would want to explore this option. Some of the benefits of using Elucidat include the availability of numerous themes for your tools. Apart from that, it is available for all screen sizes as well. So, that’s one more worry off your list. It comes with a page template editor. All you have to do is pick a theme and tweak according to your requirements.
Little or more tweaking does the job in most cases. However, if you wish to go beyond that, you also have the option to create customized themes. But that can only happen via HTML, Javascript, or CSS. You will love the platform for the liberty that it gives you when it comes to putting out your courses there. Publish hundreds of them at one time and Elucidat will support it. The option of launching courses in multiple languages is also available.
As for the price, the rule is the same for Elucidat as it is for WizIQ. You will have to get in touch with the sales reps to mention a quote to you.
I hope that these platforms are of use to you whether you wish to teach or learn. But before opting for any of them, make sure that you have a blazing fast Internet. As the lectures you record or wish to get will be of no use if you do not have Internet connectivity. If you are looking for affordable connections, check out Charter Internet prices. Apart from that, you can also look at and compare the prices of other vendors. But Charter won’t disappoint you when it comes to speed.
