Even though the help desk system is not quick and easy to navigate, the technicians are professional and very helpful.

I have taught online for over a decade and used multiple different platforms, and I am sorry to write that this is by far the worst program I have ever used. Editing tools are not named well.

I like the integrations with 3rd party applications, relatively easy to use, and the fact that they're receptive to users requests.

My experience with Brightspace has only been within the last two years, but the experience has been a rich and pleasant one.

Some of the menus are not intuitive. Ie I had trouble figuring out how to include deadline dates for assignments after which the software would no longer accept submissions.

The customer support team is excellent, providing very helpful advice and bug fixes almost at a whim.

Brightspace is great for setting up different courses and tracking the metrics of those courses such as how much time an instructor or student is spending within the course.

My overall experience with Brightspace has been successful. It is easy to navigate and saves time.

Well-ordered, clean user interface. Easy to design different courses, quizzes, and tests with minimal investment of time.

The workflow to setup the class and create activities and assignments is completely illogical. Managing the grades gets worse.

The simplicity of navigation is amazing. I have to navigate through multiple courses within Brightspace, and it's very well organized and categorized.

I loved how the dashboard showed me the classes I was taking in an easy display.

I do not believe anything is missing with Brightspace.

D2L has improved Brightspace so it is more user friendly but it still does not lend itself to ease of use.

Faculty and students alike can get what they need to be successful. Tech support is wonderful.

It was nice and gave me a chance to study again, it fit on my schedule and i like it.

D2L is pretty straightforward. I used it with my classes in my first semester as an adjunct professor.

It depends totally on the internet connection and this may cause problems of connectivity sometimes. In addition the costs to enrich with additional tools may be very high.

The system is not intuitive and takes a while to locate various functions. The grading component is awful on the student end.

I love the additional tools it has that allows you to add a virtual classroom option. I also love that it give you the option to store materials you are not using rather than just deleting them.

Overall the software was great to work with and easy to use.

Brightspace has a really lovely minimalist interface, allowing faculty and students to focus on what's most important.

I find it difficult to navigate sometimes, as the user interface is confusing.

I've also had issues with making internal links to site material. For me, I'll be able to view my links, but my students are often unable to.

Overall, Brightspace presents an aesthetically appealing and functional product that has its own quirks, while boasting a host of benefits.

Integrated learning platforms can be hit or miss but Brightspace is a big success for the average user.

It’s so easy to use and has so many tools to help you to be successful and keep track of what you are doing.

This software help me to back on studying and they has good time management that fit on my availability.

The only negative thing I can say about Brightspace is the inability to access previous courses and work submitted within the courses.

I appreciate that there are multiple ways to arrive at different areas in the course, and the seminar integration is really easy and nice.

Very happy with it from a student side when the faculty take time to set it up. But setting up a good classroom can be more work than teaching.

The problem I feel with D2L is that many professors I take misinterpret certain features which lead to sometimes very confusing Classroom UI's that are difficult to navigate.

You can completely run an online or in-person class with ease using Brightspace. Everything from assignments to discussions to grading to groupwork is integrated.

There's very few items I dislike, and they may just reflect me and my colleagues. Some of the cons are as follows: I have a lot of issues with the grade book that comes with this software.

This is the software program that all schools will benefit from having. The saving of time and stress makes the cost almost negligible.

Class Solver is easy to use and implement. It speaks with the other programs used by schools, which makes the process from beginning to end seamless.

This innovative company has successfully simplified and streamlined what can often be a daunting and time-consuming process.

When we had issues or needs the customer support was excellent.

Every question I had was answered within 24 hours with wonderful detail and specific to my individual problems. The product could sell itself but the service made this program rise to the top.

We found some trouble with viewing all 7 classes at one time unless we resized the screen. We got used to it, but for a school with as many classes as we have it took getting used to.

The ease in which you can sort or switch students was helpful and a feature we used often. We were completely satisfied and look forward to utilizing this again each year.

It's easy to navigate and very reasonably priced.

Managing class placement is challenging at the best of times, but with Covid we often need to adjust quickly.

What impressed me most about Class Solver was its commitment to customization. The platform seamlessly accommodated the unique needs of our school, allowing for personalized class placement criteria.

Class Solver has allowed our school to have a platform that is reliable and easy to use as we manage shuffling hundreds of students as they progress from grade to grade.

Class Solver is very user friendly. It is intuitive to how I wanted to distribute classes and it was easy to make any changes.

Very happy with Class solver and the excellent personal support from the Solver team when needed.

Class Solver software saved our school hours and hours of time making classes for the next school year. It was easy to use and the tech support was outstanding even though they are based in Australia.

I entered a free trial for this school year. There is no doubt that we will continue using this program in future years.

Very impressive customer support. All around excellent tool.

I love how easy it is to use, and how adaptable it is to our needs, and how much time it saves our teachers.

Amazing and I am so glad we chose to go in this direction.

The ease and practicality of it. You can set the parameters, enter the data you want, in the priority you want, and off it goes.

It also made things clear to see and we were able to set up our classes to the best of our abilities needing very few changes once the school year began.

Ease of implementation, customization options, time saver, has revolutionized thoughtful, intentional class placement of students.

The best part of this program was the ease of use and the amount of time that it saved.
