Good view, easy to organize, and easy to access for rating.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very complicated to assign attributes to an activity, evaluation, many clicks.

Disseminate content and activities remotely to my students.

Know the different functions and not just what it has by default.
It was a good platform for me

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Good visualization,
Brightspace is a friendly platform to use.
What do you like best about the product?
It is an easy-to-use platform, friendly to the user, and allows fast and secure access to the different activities. In addition to this, it allows me to access the different courses that I have registered, it shows me the material, the pending activities and the expiration dates. Therefore, it also sends me notifications or reminders of important events such as evaluations, meetings or pending tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has different chances of better in terms of reviewing comments or evaluations of the jobs that are uploaded. The above, because I have wanted to access the feedbacks of the works that I have uploaded but it is confusing the way to identify the right route to do it. But in general, I like the whole platform, I have not had many problems, or those that I have had have been solved effectively and on time. Perhaps one thing that I dislike is that I cannot configure what kind of "advertising" or links appear on the right side. Many times it shows me information that is not relevant to me and it would be interesting to configure these spaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem that it allows me to solve is the interaction with the teacher and different students. The benefits I have had have been to review material uploaded by the teacher and access activities such as quizzes, workshops, or exams. Another problem that helps me solve is the reminder of pending shipments, such as workshops, meetings, evaluations, and others, for which I have no excuse for missing these responsibilities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make a first mapping on the characteristics of the platform. Observe the menus, routes, sections, etc. Then, identify the options that will be most frequent in your day to day to be clear about the routes and ways of accessing the platform.
It is a great tool. Improvements are continuously being added for more intuitive handling.
What do you like best about the product?
The design, the integration of tools, resources, activities, etc. Updates are being made that improve the more efficient use of available resources for the best learning of students. It is very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems to me that there are still details to improve that would facilitate the scheduling of activities, evaluations, etc. The shorter the path to do it, the better it will be for the teachers. There are many resources available, but some could be made more efficient or integrated into a single tab.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't have direct communication with the Brightspace team, only at an internal level. It would be amazing if we had the opportunity to communicate our experiences to that team, as sometimes we don't know if they have information about our concerns and experiences. I know it's not possible to listen to or read everyone, but it would be very enriching for them to have contact with some.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have a way of direct communication with a group of users. In the case of a university, with the professors who use it, not just with the coordinating team, since often they do not teach classes and do not face the daily needs of those of us who do.
Excellent educational platform
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Brightspace since January of this year and it has seemed to me to be an easy-to-use platform, complete with content and information. It has good tools and allows interaction in the academic process.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I like everything, I have nothing to report.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The platform has allowed me to have contact and follow-up with my students. I love the grade or score calculation option. It's good that it allows the inclusion of videos, images, news, and external information links.
CLEAN INTUITIVE EXPERIENCE
What do you like best about the product?
Its really clear, I mean its interface, and its userfriendly and intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functions are missing, such as peer-to-peer evaluation in assignations or easy edition of quiz questions. The content interface (at least in a screen computer) is small and gives the feel that there are some "free space" that can be used in a better way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we are solving is having the teachers of our university to use brightspace as their new LMS. The benefits is that teachers are real happy and have been learning to use brighstpace in a easy and intutitive way making the transition easy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Recommend teachers to be careful when creating questions for their exams because the edition once the quiz has been answered are complicated and, in some questions, practically impossible.
Modernizing Interactive Learning (MIL)
What do you like best about the product?
The main function that I like the most about D2L BrgihtSpace, compared to other LMS used, is the great organizational versatility that can be achieved with the tools to create new content or use existing ones. The appearance of the "Content" tab is very nice, clean and efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Perhaps, one of the things that I have not liked so much is the apparent repetitiveness of functions that fulfill similar objectives, but on the platform it is not evident: as it happens in a chat or forum, which can be similar in functionality. Additionally, I find it a bit distracting, the font size of some secondary titles over others that are more important; it would be much more useful to use a more compact interface without so many empty spaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like it because in this LMS I have been able to see the implementation of many other tools used by the university where I study and work. There, several integrations have been made with Zoom, Panopto, Turnitin and it is very positive because most of the features have high compatibility with the LMS systems such as user registration, roles, permissions and qualifications, for example.
The benefits that this brings is the improvement in the study experience of the students and the centralization of academic material in a single environment without distractions and always keeping or keeping the most important thing at hand.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very interesting to always be aware of the implementation of new updates as a method of own feedback on the new features that D2L can add. Likewise, it allows you to learn in depth about the management and administration of the platform in various ways. The main derived recommendation that could be delivered would be to properly train with expert advisors and accompany this training with autonomous homework. Platforms are often more useful than what we can see above.
Among other features, the way in which students can take different video tasks or audio tasks is very good with a whole system implemented to be able to rate, comment, publish, share and observe with the students and from my profile as a teacher.

Brighstspace in Distance and Hybrid learning
What do you like best about the product?
Working with my in-person class and my students at home via Brightspace has made this experience much easier during this hectic year. It has been a real life saver to have this platform to integrate all my classroom needs in one place. The fact that I can post work, that students can submit their work, make comments, grade, do videos, add supporting multimedia material, have control of submitted assignments, send emails to students. I do not have to hop form one site or platform to the other, it is all in one place and its a real life saver!
What do you dislike about the product?
Make copy paste simpler, it is a bit complicated the fact that you need to take too many steps when posting work or material. I would also add the feature of emailing parents from the email feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hybrid learning has been more accessible with Brightspace, students know where to find everything. Announcements, grades, emails, assignements, all in one place gives continuity to students in this hectic times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an excellent tool for teachers, especially during hybrid teaching. It is a go-to spot for students to find and have all that they need for their classes
Very intuitive and versatile
What do you like best about the product?
I can make attractive content to my student from different platforms and bring it to one simple space
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, nothing is a friendly LMS and it has everything I need for my student
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use different platforms including Perusall, Nearpod, Canva, Zoom and I can integrate everything in this LMS
The Best LMS by far
What do you like best about the product?
The look and feel and it was easy to migrate data with the IPSIS system.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reports of the basic package are not clear enough. If you want better reporting, you have to buy an additional package.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Create content and upload 70.000 users. The LMS is very friendly, and It was easy to upload users with IPSIS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it.
