Everything about PlusPlus

Discover more about us and our story

How we started

PlusPlus emerged from a gap in traditional learning systems. LMS platforms were rigid, while flexible tools lacked structure. L&D professionals needed a solution combining formal training with real-time knowledge sharing across departments.

Where we are

PlusPlus is a learning platform for L&D professionals. We blend LMS rigor with LXP flexibility, enabling management of training programs and fostering peer-to-peer learning. This approach helps teams share knowledge and prove the ROI of learning programs.

What’s next

As learning evolves, our mission is clear: empower L&D teams to create impactful learning experiences for personal and business growth. PlusPlus provides tools to demonstrate the impact of programs, showing how they help teams achieve organizational goals.

ORIGINS

Pioneering Team Enablement

Marko Gargenta founded Marakana in 2001, sold to Twitter in 2013. From there, it evolved into Twitter University, a tool for onboarding engineers. He then founded PlusPlus in 2016 to create a powerful team enablement platform, now used by companies like HubSpot, Slack, LinkedIn, and Roblox.

TESTIMONIALS

Customer success story

  • The success has been the sheer volume of events we can offer every year. PlusPlus works!

  • Wow, the automated rules for enrollment in a track, combined with getting the users start date from Okta. SO GOOD! It just made 156 enrollments for me. I can’t even explain how great that was.

  • PlusPlus is this really intuitive system that we adopted company wide. And because PlusPlus started adding the LMS features, we were able to start migrating off of Docebo back to PlusPlus.

  • I think that I like that when I create content on the Plus Plus platform that I’m building, sort of this library of content that I feel is really impactful for engineers. It's like I’ve immortalized my work because it could always lives there.

  • We use PlusPlus because it saves our team 1.5 admin people per year compared to our previous system.

  • My call to action: if there's engineering leaders here, find your L and D teams, the folks like us, the technical learners first.

  • Before PlusPlus, we found out 73% of our engineers said (what we were offering) doesn't fit their schedule. 68% weren't even aware of what was available to them.

  • Other teams at Netflix are now adopting the same approach to learning. PlusPlus as a platform itself is used by the majority of Netflix...Its had a very natural welcoming since it made it easy for anyone to create an offering.

  • Now that we have been using the PlusPlus platform, we did 30 events in Q2, and already over 70 in Q3. Being able to say we have done over 100 events within 6 months is a really big win for us.

  • Now we are enabling self curated learning at scale due to the nature of the technology itself.

  • I needed to create programs that didn't need to be micromanaged. I don't want my team to be a bottleneck in having to do manual tasks like setting up learning events, sending invitations, and following up."
