Facts about GoSkills checked on its public pricing page in October 2026. Prices and features change; see goskills.com for current details. FormulaCamp is not affiliated with GoSkills.
TL;DR
- Choose FormulaCamp if you learn by typing formulas and getting instant feedback, and want Excel depth up to Power Query, DAX and Python in Excel.
- Choose GoSkills if you prefer short expert-led video lessons, want certificates included, and want a library that goes beyond Excel (project management, soft skills and more).
Who each is best for
FormulaCamp is best for hands-on learners. Each lesson has short theory and tasks in a live in-browser spreadsheet that auto-checks every answer. You can also download .xlsx tasks, solve them in desktop Excel and upload them back for checking. 170 lessons in 16 tracks run from Beginner to Expert, with a 180-function reference in English and Russian.
GoSkills is best for people who want to watch. Its lessons are short (3 to 7 minutes), with quizzes, tests, practice files and gamified rewards. The library covers Microsoft Excel and Office, project management, Lean Six Sigma, soft skills, finance, design and development. Certificates are included with paid plans.
Where GoSkills is better: video teaching by instructors, certificates today, and a wider catalog than Excel. FormulaCamp has no video, no mobile app and no community yet, and its certificate is self-issued (not verified by a third party).
Where FormulaCamp is better: you practice inside a spreadsheet and get instant checking on each task, rather than mainly watching and then taking quizzes. It also has a free tier, while GoSkills offers only a trial.
