The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Custify no mobile app for on-the-go customer success management; Skilljar pricing is an enterprise annual commitment, so a first certification pilot costs more than it can demonstrate and teams should prove the programme elsewhere first.
  • They diverge on capability: Custify covers Health scores, Skilljar covers Branded course catalogue.
  • 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.

Custify

  • No mobile app for on-the-go customer success management
  • Limited reporting customization options

Skilljar

  • Pricing is an enterprise annual commitment, so a first certification pilot costs more than it can demonstrate and teams should prove the programme elsewhere first.
  • The commercial value depends on the Salesforce integration being properly configured, and companies with messy CRM data get engagement reporting joined to accounts that do not reflect reality.
  • It is built for external audiences, so using it for internal employee compliance means paying for capability that internal training does not need.
  • Content authoring is not a strength, so most customers licence an authoring tool separately and run two content workflows.
  • Attribution remains contested. The platform shows that trained accounts renew better, but establishing that training caused the renewal rather than that engaged customers train more is a problem the reporting cannot solve for you.

Custify: What CRM systems does Custify integrate with?

Custify integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho CRM, Zendesk Sell, Intercom, Pipedrive, Close CRM, Freshworks CRM, and 200+ other applications through Zapier.

Skilljar: Do learners need accounts before they can browse?

No. Catalogues can be public so prospects and customers browse and enrol without a sales conversation, which is a large part of the self serve onboarding case.

Custify: Does Custify have a mobile app?

No, Custify does not offer a dedicated mobile app. It is a cloud-based web platform accessible via browser on mobile devices.

Skilljar: Is it worth it for a small customer education team?

Usually not at the start. The contract floor assumes an established programme, so prove the value on a cheaper platform and move once retention or revenue evidence exists.
