The short version

  • Only DataCamp has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: DataCamp free tier limited to first chapter of every course only; LearnWorlds the $24 Starter plan charges $5 for every paid enrollment, so selling a cheap course can cost more in fees than the plan
  • They diverge on capability: DataCamp covers Interactive courses, LearnWorlds covers Course builder.
