Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • What we liked most about POK is how it makes managing credentials so much easier. We can issue, update, and verify everything quickly without getting stuck in paperwork. Plus, the team at POK is great—they actually listen to our feedback and are always ready to help, which makes the whole experience even better.
  • It solves our need to provide certificates of completion in an easy, automated way, and trustworthy for the participants. The basic version is very complete and free
  • The platform is very easy to use and they have a great service. The credentials security is guaranteed beacuse of their NFTs. They are based on a public blockchain so I am assured that the certificates are either property of my institution or property of my students. I can track my students employability. I can customize the hole process with my institutions branding. They have free web2 certificates that also very good; difference is that those certificates are not located on any blockchain, they are just a PDF like any other platform has (not for free though). I can emit NFTs in bulk in just some minutes!
  • It offers an unlimited free version with a fully self-service platform. I was able to issue digital badges and credentials in just a few minutes! Plus, I noticed you can issue digital credentials via the Polygon blockchain. It includes many features I haven’t seen in competitors — and everything is fully compatible with Open Badge 3.0!
  • What truly attracts me to POK – Proof of Knowledge is its courage to do something most don't dare to: take digital credentials to the next level. Instead of offering halfway solutions or relying on pure marketing, they're committed to real NFTs on a public blockchain, ensuring genuine ownership for the user. What does this mean in practice? The user is the true owner: The credentials are held directly in the owner's wallet. They aren't a loan from the platform but a genuine digital asset. Leading the way with standards: They are pioneers, strictly complying with the most important global standards (OpenBadge 3.0, European Learning Model, LTI, GDPR). As founders of 1EdTech LATAM, their voice holds real weight in defining these parameters. A clear and fair model: Their platform is completely free to use. They only charge for issuing credentials, with no surprises like hidden fees or restrictive premium plans. Unlimited connections: They offer open APIs, LTI, and plug-and-play compatibility with a wide range of systems, from learning platforms like Moodle, Canvas, and Blackboard, to CRMs like Salesforce and HubSpot. Security and interoperability as their banner: Using a public blockchain ensures that data is verifiable, permanent, and compatible with any other system. Leadership with a future-forward vision: They are the benchmark in Latin America, and their expansion into the United States, Europe, and Japan shows that their model is making a global impact.

Cons

  • One challenge with POK is that many institutions still don’t fully understand how blockchain credentials work, so it can take some time for them to adopt it. But this also works in our favor, because it gives us an edge: we can showcase our achievements securely and verifiably before many others, building trust quickly.
  • in the past, we needed to customize the certification, but it has been addressed
  • So far I have not had any problem. I have already emitted some 3600 certificates and 1000 badges.
  • In the time that i use this platform i didnt find anything that i saw as a con!
  • If I had to find a weak point for POK – Proof of Knowledge, it wouldn't be in its value proposition, which I find to be very solid and unique. Instead, it lies in areas that, if improved, could boost its growth and adoption. Greater Visibility Outside Latin America: While it's an undisputed leader in the region, its global presence isn't yet on par with competitors like Credly or Accredible. This isn't a product issue, but an opportunity in marketing and public relations to make its name known worldwide. Educating the Market on NFTs: The term "credential NFT" is still confusing. Many institutions don't understand the crucial difference between a real NFT hosted on a public blockchain and a more conventional digital credential that just uses the word "blockchain" as a marketing tactic. It's vital to create more educational content and showcase concrete use cases to explain this. Improved Digital Positioning: Its website could be better optimized for global searches in English (SEO and AEO). This would allow universities and companies from around the world to easily find POK when looking for digital credential solutions. Strengthening Strategic Alliances: Despite having open and accessible integrations (APIs, LTI), the company could benefit from stronger alliances with major tech companies and global educational associations to accelerate its expansion. Countering the Negative Perception of NFTs: In certain markets, the word "NFT" is associated more with digital collectibles and speculation than with a serious use case like credentials. POK must continue working to redefine this term, associating it with "verifiable and permanent digital ownership."

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I found Wauld very easy to use. It helped me create a lot of certificates and badges in a very short amount of time, which saved me a lot of effort. I also liked that it has many templates to choose from, making it easy to create different types of certificates and badges without starting from scratch.
  • Me and my office friends play badminton almost every day after work, and recently we started keeping weekly scores and small rankings just for fun. Earlier we used Google Sheets for scores and Canva for making funny badges manually every weekend. It was fun initially but later became too much manual work because someone had to check scores, design badges, export them, and send them to everyone separately. One of my friends who likes trying new tools found Wauld, and honestly it made things much easier for us. We used custom triggers with our score sheet setup and automated most of the badge issuing work. We started giving badges like “Smash King”, “Best Comeback”, “Most Dangerous Player”, etc. every week. The Design Studio was actually one of the most fun parts. We added our own player photos, badminton images, funny stickers, custom texts, and backgrounds. The layering option was very useful while designing because we could arrange elements properly and make the badges look really good instead of basic templates. The best feature for our group was the recipient portal. Earlier badges used to get lost in WhatsApp chats or folders, but now everyone can see all their badges in one place from mobile itself. People actually started competing seriously just to collect more badges.
  • We used Wauld for a college event where we had to issue over 1,000 certificates across one weekend. What could have been a stressful manual process became very manageable. The platform made it easy to prepare the certificate design, upload recipient data, issue certificates in bulk, and share them with students without having to track everything manually. The support team was also responsive whenever we had a question, which helped us move quickly during the event.
  • We issue continuing professional development badges for workshops, webinars, and conferences. Wauld handles all three seamlessly. Member engagement with credentials has tripled since we switched - people share them, display them, and ask for them by name now.
  • Wauld helped me create very colorful and fun certificates for my students from 1st to 5th class. The cartoon templates were very nice and children became very happy after receiving them. I am not from a technical background, but still I was able to design and issue certificates without much difficulty. Adding student names and issuing certificates was also fast and saved me a lot of time. I liked that I could customize the certificates according to different activities and competitions conducted in school. Another good thing is that Wauld is free for smaller issuances and use cases like mine, which was very helpful for our school activities. They also provide good discounts for non-profit organizations and educational use cases, which I really appreciated.

Cons

  • One thing I would like to see is AI integration. I think adding AI features would make the platform even better and improve the overall experience.
  • Currently there are only a few ready-made badge templates compared to the certificate templates available. Since our use case was mainly sports badges, we wanted more sports-related badge designs and elements. We contacted support regarding this and they said they are already working on adding more badge templates soon. It would also be great if Zapier integration becomes fully available because then even non-technical people can easily automate workflows without much setup. The support team mentioned it is already in beta and should be released soon.
  • There was a small learning curve at the beginning while setting up the certificate format and organizing the recipient data correctly. Once we understood the flow, the rest of the process was smooth. A few more guided setup tips for first-time bulk issuance would make the experience even better.
  • A native CPD tracker dashboard would be a great addition - we're currently managing that externally.
  • At first, it took me some time to understand all the features because Wauld has many customization options in the certificate design section and also multiple configuration options while issuing certificates. But whenever I had doubts, the help articles and support chat guided me properly and made things easier. One thing I feel can be improved is iPad support. Right now, Wauld works mainly as a web application and it is not fully comfortable to use on iPads. It would be very useful if they improve the iPad experience because people like me prefer carrying iPads everywhere as they are easy to use and convenient while working from different places.
