I love the way it is easy and also that you do not lose everything is just one click away, review notes, make independent units and the children find it quite easy to use the platform.
I love the fact of having a place for my content that is manageable and can be accessed quickly, it is also good for children since they start the content in the best way and in a faster way
I know it is not a perfect platform but at least personally I have noticed that it is easy to use that is why I love the platform

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think my only recommendation would be to be friendly with ATLAS, I think that is the only thing with which it is not friendly, since you cannot enter the notes by that means but the rest is super good
As I say I have not presented any problem with the platform and it is super easy to use

D2L - Keeps getting better
What do you like best about the product?
Hands down the continuous delivery! Well organized, advertised and easy to enable.
What do you dislike about the product?
S3 needs some work to automate. Tedious setup but does work well once it is set up. Can be time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through Insights and DataHub we are growing the ability to provide detailed information to faculty and students.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a financial commitment but the product really enables your end-users, faculty and staff, to be self-sufficient and experiment as needed. The API is great to work with and the support team is very responsive and engaged in finding solutions. I'm not sure you will find the same levels with other vendors.
D2L Gets The Job Done
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about D2L would bit its simplicity. Besides the grade book section, it's not very complicated at all. Most of the tools are straightforward and very useful. If you have any problems with the tools, the D2L youtube page has tons of tutorials to help! My personal favorite part would have to be all the ways I can personalize the courses for instructors. Changing the overall look/feel of a course based off if the course is art or science really helps give the students the feel that they are in the right place.
What do you dislike about the product?
The grade book section would probably be what I dislike the most. It doesn't seem very easy, and there are a ton of grading strategies instructors want to use but cannot figure out how to complete it. I understand the grade book section should probably be the most complicated feature but I wish it was more user friendly. Even as an administrator, I have issues navigating the grade book at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well, the most significant current problem we are solving is course access due to Covid. D2L is allowing us to make sure students still receive the complete educations they deserve. Students have an easy time taking their courses, completing the contect, and graduating on time thanks to the tools provided by D2L. D2L also allows us to reach more people in their goals to get a higher education degree.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Of course, every LMS system will have some minor flaws. Knowing the weaknesses of D2L, I would still highly recommend this learning system to other users. The bright spots by far outshine the flaws. Whether you are using this for education or using this for training, D2L allows you to mold the environment to something that best fits you. Helping you in all aspects of training and education, so your employees and students come out fully educated on the topics at hand.
D2L Brightspace was an essential tool for my college during the global pandemic.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how the product's intuitive tools and design made it easy for faculty already using some features pre-pandemic shutdown to adapt and use more features, especially the discussions and quiz tools. Our students love being able to keep tabs on their grades when their instructors use the grades tool, too.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using an LMS is a significant culture change for instructors who are uncomfortable with using technology. Therefore, it was harder to convince such individuals to adopt it. It was intimidating to them, and they did require a lot of extra one-on-one instruction time. I also wish it was easier to perform granular assessments of learning objectives, as the data reports are not very user-friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have started using Brightspace for collecting student-wide documents and for setting up courses for our student services departments. Our departments do not lose documents in emails if using Brightspace, and information is collected and shared in a secure setting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
D2L Brightspace may not be as well-known as Blackboard, Moodle, or Canvas, but it is a solid competitor in the LMS market. It has been a great tool that our faculty consistently use to provide our students with quality learning experiences. Our faculty members like how they can use many or just a few of the features provided to help supplement their in-person teaching. They especially like the grading functionality of the quizzes and annotated grade tool within the Assignments tool.
Learner-centric, customer-driven, user friendly, forward-thinking, continuous improvement.
What do you like best about the product?
Learner-centric, customer-driven, user friendly, forward-thinking, continuous improvement.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see when you purchase D2L; you get access to all of their great products instead of having to purchase packages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we run into an issue, we put in a ticket. We are currently working on CBE.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I strongly encourage the adoption of D2L for your institution. They are innovative; they are listening to their consumer on needs and making adjustments based on feedback. They are constantly working to improve and provide data for improvement. D2L is also working to collect data to meet accreditation needs. I like where they are at and where they are going for the future of education.
D2L Brightspace Provides All the Tools and Data Necessary for Efficiency and Decision-Making
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about D2L Brightspace is how intuitive and efficient it is. Creating or adding course content is simple and fast, and it keeps getting better with every update!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is really no downside to using D2L Brightspace itself, but I am not fond of the way the support site is set up. Searching for how-to knowledge base articles is not the best.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Evaluating students' work was cumbersome for faculty until we began converting external rubric files into the D2L Brightspace rubric tool. Faculty are expressing much gratitude for the Brightspace rubrics because they have cut grading time in half--not to mention the data that is aggregated from the use of the rubrics! Our next step is to associate them with program outcomes and glean even more robust data for our Institutional Effectiveness department.
D2L is a stable, secure LMS with important features for online study.
What do you like best about the product?
Intelligent Agents is the best tool. Personalization of names for messages. Ease of drag and drop for file upload. Pulse app becomes important for students who need mobility.
What do you dislike about the product?
The insights data is outdated by 7 days. I would like to have access to real-time data. The icon menu is fixed and large, reducing the useful reading area. It could be customizable or have a button to minimize and expand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All distance education solutions from the University, from undergraduate courses, postgraduate courses, to free courses.
D2L Brightspace is a good product but it is not matching the UX experience in some newer LMS.
What do you like best about the product?
The years of design experience shown in the maturity of the product and the very sincere and helpful teams in D2L.
What do you dislike about the product?
UX is behind Canvas and other lightweight LMS like NeoLMS and TalentLMS. With D2L's experience and skill, they should be able to better address this. Example: always offer a simple default setup for Assignment, Quiz ... etc, so that users that don't need that may settings, they can just grab the ready-made most commonly used settings and be productive. Discussion Forum function is the least preferred function for many years. The reporting functions are also behind others. Admin reports are poor. Insights revamp had huge delays and harder to use, SSA need training to get some basic stuff done, all these don't meet non-technical administrator's needs. They need to partner IT expert to get things done which is not ideal. Every Instructor and Student should have a good dashboard to start their day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Brightspace is our main LMS to do course delivery for Undergraduate and Postgraduate. It is a stable platform that can cater to many use cases.
