What Our Customers Say
The best measure of Hurdle’s impact is the experience of those using it every day. From universities and NHS Trusts to global businesses, trainers and learners consistently tell us that Hurdle makes online learning more engaging, more interactive, and in many cases, better than being in the room.
CAD for Fashion - Erica Horne
“Hurdle has helped us level up our training delivery and freed up more time to focus on the stuff that really matters, making learning more accessible, enjoyable and impactful.”
"We started using Hurdle as a way to make our training offer feel more joined up, simple and supportive, and honestly, it’s been a bit of a game changer!
As a small business working across fashion, education and digital skills, we needed something that made it easy to deliver training that feels personal, flexible and professional without creating loads of extra admin behind the scenes. Hurdle has completely taken the pressure off.
Everything’s in one place, and it saves me hours of time every time we run a session or course.
The feedback from learners has been amazing. Some of our university customers, both lecturers and students, had really negative experiences with online learning during COVID, so we expected some hesitation. But after using Hurdle, we've had people say it's actually better than learning in person. It’s helped them stay on track, revisit content in their own time, and feel more confident and in control of their learning. That kind of feedback means everything to us.
I also have to say, the team at Hurdle have been brilliant. So supportive, always quick to respond, and genuinely open to ideas. It feels like a proper partnership, not just a platform.
Even though we don’t pay for the service, the time it’s saved us is worth a lot. No more chasing emails, no more fiddling with multiple tools, and we’ve definitely saved on travel, printing, and all those little things that add up.

Symetri - Craig Snell Autodesk Support & Manufacturing Training Manager
“In my opinion, there isn't a perfect solution available on the market, but Hurdle comes as close as possible.”
The COVID-19 pandemic marked a turning point for training providers, fast-tracking the shift to digital learning. As a global provider of technology solutions and services, the challenge was not just to go online but to do it right. Rather than defaulting to standard meeting platforms, Symetri sought a solution purpose-built for training. Their search led them to Hurdle, a platform that has since redefined their training delivery and efficiency.
“In the past we have experienced many problems with our learners using different versions of the software. Sometimes we had 6 learners using 5 different versions of the product. This is a nightmare scenario for the trainer - ‘which version has this feature, does that button look the same in each version?’ It’s also difficult for the learner,” a Symetri trainer noted.
The team was immediately impressed by how thoughtfully the platform addressed real-world training needs with features they hadn’t found elsewhere. Using the labs solution from Hurdle took their problem away overnight and provided them with a turnkey solution.
As Symetri continues to train clients across the globe, Hurdle remains central to their strategy. While no solution is truly perfect, Symetri believes Hurdle is the closest the market has come to recreating the physical classroom online and with a team that genuinely cares.
Sunbelt Rentals - Harbinder Harris IT Systems Implementation Manager
“By consolidating everything into one seamless solution, Hurdle saves time, reduces support tickets, and ensures a smooth learning journey for everyone involved. It’s more than just an online classroom - it’s a smarter, faster way to learn and teach.”
"Hurdle has completely transformed the way we deliver training. Its intuitive design and feature-rich platform make virtual learning engaging and effortless. The bi-directional screen sharing, live video and voice streaming, and interactive tools such as the digital ‘hands-up’ feature create a dynamic classroom experience that feels personal and connected. This also lets us tailor sessions to different learning styles while keeping content current. The team can customise sessions to suit different learning styles, while learners benefit from real-time guidance and easy access to up-to-date content.
Just as important, the Hurdle team listens. When we share feedback, it’s taken onboard, and we see meaningful changes in the app to meet our needs. Ben is incredibly approachable, he understands our context and champions our priorities with the product team. It’s great to see customer recommendations taken seriously and turned into real improvements.”
Thank you for your ongoing support from the Sunbelt Rentals Team!
NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria Foundation Trust, Maxine Craig, System Trainer
“Hurdle has enabled our team to streamline communication, optimise projects, and significantly improve collaboration. The features have saved us countless hours, allowing us to focus on other projects. Hurdle have also given us a clear picture of our progress, enabling us to deliver training with confidence.”
"We discovered Hurdle in Lockdown and it was tricky at first only seeing it on MS Teams to learn it but I like the fact I could work from home and make life easier for our staff to not have to spend 2 hours in a car to do in-house training. We as a training department were the pilot in the NHS and since integrating Hurdle into our workflow, we’ve experienced a remarkable transformation in how we operate. What I particularly love about using Hurdle is its intuitive design functionality, every feature has been created to enhance efficiency without complicating our processes.
Hurdle provides a balance of flexibility for our staff that perfectly fits our work environment. Its reliability and user-friendly experience sets it apart, making it an additional tool for our training to be delivered successfully.”
NHS North Cumbria Integrated Care Trust, Peter Skelhorn - Digital Training Manager
“The system is intuitive for both trainers and delegates and has been well received by those who have used the platform as part of our training provision.”
"Hurdle has been a great addition to the resource of the Digital Training team which not only allows us to run scheduled remote training sessions, saving staff and trainers many hours of travel time, but has increased our training capacity and has given us more flexibility in our training offerings. By using Hurdle, we have the ability to set up and run last minute sessions "on the fly" for individuals who may need to gain access to systems quickly, allowing staff to undertake clinical practises in a more timely manner.”
