The short version

  • Only 360Learning has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: 360Learning the published Team plan at $8 per user per month covers up to 100 users; beyond that pricing is custom; Degreed pricing is entirely quote-based with no public rate card, and third parties report annual floors around 25,000 USD and licence minimums as high as 150 seats, so a mid-sized organisation frequently cannot buy it at any sensible price.
  • They diverge on capability: 360Learning covers Collaborative authoring, Degreed covers Content aggregation.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

360Learning

  • The published Team plan at $8 per user per month covers up to 100 users; beyond that pricing is custom
  • Business and Enterprise pricing is not published
  • Priority SLA, dedicated technical support and premium onboarding are Enterprise only
  • Business and Enterprise plans are typically annual contracts rather than monthly

Degreed

  • Pricing is entirely quote-based with no public rate card, and third parties report annual floors around 25,000 USD and licence minimums as high as 150 seats, so a mid-sized organisation frequently cannot buy it at any sensible price.
  • Degreed is a layer, not a replacement: you keep paying for the learning management system that runs compliance training and for the content subscriptions it indexes, so the licence is a third line on top of two you already have.
  • The skills data leans heavily on employee self-assessment, and self-rated skill is a weak signal; if managers do not validate ratings consistently the workforce capability picture that justified the purchase is not reliable enough to make hiring or redeployment decisions on.
  • Adoption is voluntary in most deployments, so unless the organisation ties learning to something consequential, usage decays after the launch campaign and the platform becomes an expensive search box.
  • Integrations with content providers vary in depth: some surface full metadata and completion write-back while others index only titles, so the unified record of learning the business case assumed can be patchy in exactly the sources employees use most.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

360Learning: Does 360Learning offer a free trial before committing to a paid plan?

Yes, a 30-day free trial is available with no credit card required. Customers can easily upgrade to a paid plan or add more users at any time without disrupting their setup.

Source
Degreed: Does Degreed replace our LMS?

No. It is a discovery and skills layer over content. Compliance training, assignment and certification records generally stay in the LMS, and you pay for both.

360Learning: Can I scale up my user count on the Team plan, or do I need to upgrade to Business?

The Team plan accommodates up to 100 users with no minimum user requirement. You pay only for active users on the platform. To exceed 100 users, you would need to contact sales for a Business or Enterprise plan with custom pricing.

Source
Degreed: What does Degreed cost?

It is quote-only. Third-party reports put annual floors around 25,000 USD with licence minimums that can reach 150 seats.

360Learning: What billing flexibility does 360Learning offer for larger organizations?

Business and Enterprise plans use flexible user models that combine both registered and monthly active users. Annual contracts are generally offered for these tiers, with no hidden setup fees.

Source
Degreed: Is the skills data trustworthy?

Only as far as your validation process is. It is built on self-assessment plus peer endorsement, so without manager validation it should not drive redeployment decisions.

Degreed: Can individuals use it free?

Yes, Degreed offers a free personal profile for tracking your own learning, separate from the enterprise product.
