Logos training

I am very disappointed with the lack of training videos Logos for users. Logos is an expensive program and if I want to really learn how to use the program Logos offers paid training. I think Logos should offer better training so that we can use all the features of Logos. Here is a chat with a Logos representative about this issue:
We are currently receiving heavy traffic due to the release of Logos 8. This may lead to longer than usual wait times. Thank you for your patience - we can't wait to assist you!
8.4.0.0047, a rather expensive package.

Here's a different link to the free Logos 8 videos: https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019103211-Logos-8-Training-Videos (I find this page better laid out, as only the main videos are listed).
There are also videos within Logos that aim to help you study the Bible and familiarise yourself with the software. Look for DIY Bible Study in the Courses Tool. If you don't already have it, you can also get LT271: Study the Bible with Logos: Jonah 1 for free.
You will also find QuickStart for Logos 8 in your library, which has a couple of dozen short training videos.
Although these videos are short, they are pretty comprehensive. If you're struggling with any feature not covered there, just ask and we can help you. You said in your message to support that you're looking for more advanced videos. Let us know what features you're interested in, or (even better) what you're trying to accomplish, and I'm sure we can point you in the right direction.

I can see the frustration. My suggestion would be for Faithlife to include training into base package. Basis training to basic packages, and advanced training maybe from Gold and up, and very advanced with complicated search and etc. to the most expensive ones.

Honestly they put out more training already than MOST software companies.

I actually think they've done a great job organizing the new Training page: https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/categories/360000675231. It's so much simpler and easier to find what you're looking for, it's searchable. This link is pretty much your starting point to get you to other links people have included. I actually like the step-by-step pages with pictures, quick and easy. And each page has links to other related pages that might be relevant to what you're searching for.
