Overall, my experience with Brightspace has been very positive. It offers a smooth and well-structured learning management environment that makes it easy to handle courses, assignments, grading, and communication in one place.

D2L has improved the HTML templates for the designers. #### Cons The graphic interface can be complex for instructors or new users.

I used Brightspace as an employee at an organization that implemented Brightspace for training and compliance purposes. As an employee it was annoying because you had to actually click through during the training and couldn’t fast forward or just let it play. However as someone who has also had compliance responsibilities in the past, as annoying as it may have been as an employee, from a training and compliance aspect Brightspace was an excellent platform. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The learning modules were well put together and clearly conveyed the information and knowledge that was important for each module. It was also easy to track and see what was or wasn’t completed. #### Cons It seemed like it was glitchy at times, my log in occasionally needed to be updated more than it seemed like it should because my credentials weren’t recognized. However that may have been more of an issue with our HR administrator and not actually any issue on the part of Brightspace. --- ### Not recommended - Overall rating: 1/5 - Reviewer: Paulina S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: March 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

The school made the right choice in switching to Brightspace. It's quick and easy to understand #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It has many of the same features of other LMS options, such as Blackboard and Angel. It has many advantages over a product such as Moodle. It's easy to understand and the cleanest user interface of all major college LMSs #### Cons It needs a video class option, similar to Blackboard UltraCollaborate --- ### Brightspace Brightens my Class - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: David S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Brightspace is very easy to navigate and customize. It looks very nice and many uses familiar with something like Wordpress will have a pretty easy time. It is also in many ways similar to other popular social media platforms for students, I imagine, they are pretty comfortable with a platforms like this. Managing grades, assignments and embedding external links is very organic. There are some great tutorials too form D2L. It's also similar enough to other platforms that if you are migrating from another system, this shouldn't have too much of a learning curve. I love how easy it is to build a template course and transition various components or modules to a new one. #### Cons My only con is purely subjective, but I have had issues with embedded links like videos. I find it very hard to remove items from the Grades section (the gradebook). I constantly have to view a tutorial because it is so roundabout to remove an item from that section. --- ### Brightspace user (Bigsky) - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Maria Victoria L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospitality - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I love using Brightspace (Bigsky). It is easy to learn, and I even volunteer to assist other faculty members. As a retired faculty member, I would look for the features I enjoyed with Brightspace when given the opportunity to use other LMS. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It has gamification, and once the course has been set up, everything is like clockwork. #### Cons Just the setting up at the start of every semester, BUT, it is worth the time. --- ### A Powerful, Though Complicated, Online Teaching Platform - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Daniel F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Primary/ Secondary Education - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: September 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Brightspace has a wealth of features I’ve found helpful when using it in my Pre-K through 5th grade classrooms, but I can’t help but feel that this is more focused for older students. The interface can be overwhelming for young students, and creating and accessing tools such as quizzes and assignments can have a steep learning curve. When compared to Google Classroom, Brightspace has more capabilities, but can take more effort to set up and use properly. In elementary schools, I don’t know if Brightspace outweighed Classroom, but I can see middle and high schools getting much more out of it! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Brightspace has tons of features and capabilities that teachers and students can use in learning! Through assignments with release conditions, video and audio recording for instructions and responses, homepage customization, and much more. There are few things that you are limited to with Brightspace. #### Cons Though there are many features in Brightspace, they can often be tedious and complicated to create and use. For example, creating tests/quizzes in brightspace is a very important tool for teachers to give formative assessments. The creation tool works, but takes many more steps and work when compared to other quiz creation tools, such as Google Forms. This applies to almost all features on Brightspace. When using this with younger students - Pre-K through 5th grade - that can take a toll on time and learning. --- ### Great Online Learning Resource - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Reka V. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Good, highly recommend for any online learner. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love how user friendly this software is. As a daily user, I can easily navigate the different portals on this software and find all my class's resources quickly. It is very organized, and has great assessible features such as clear text, and high contrasting colours. Grades are easily accessible, and there offer all features necessary to succeed in your course, eg. discussion boards, class list, attendance, course content etc. #### Cons The notifications are quite overwhelming, every time any professor makes any adjustment to their course you get a notification that piles up throughout the day. Moreover, the notifications for upcoming assignments are sometimes inconsistent, as assignments not done through the D2L will not show up at all, causing confusion for upcoming work to be done for the student. --- ### BrightSpace is amazing! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My students (middle and high school) are able to become proficient in the navigation of the system in just a few days with minimal questions and challenges. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros BrightSpace includes all of the typical features of any LMS. However, D2L has improved the platform over time and has made the system more intuitive and user friendly. I also use CourseDen (the higher ed version of BrightSpace) for my college courses and the features are essentially the same with a few differences. However, the two platforms are enough alike that, once you know one system, learning to use the other one is a cinch. The features allow for very specific customization of assessments, discussions, and other features. I have built my own courses within the LMS, so I am familiar with a majority of the features and capabilities of the LMS. --- ### Good LMS but not all-encompassing - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Brightspace by D2L was useful for implementing a live course's online material, but the program lacks important components that are necessary for online courses. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros This Learning Management System is GOOD but not the best. It is great that D2L and Brightspace have an easy-to-use portal that differentiates between student, instructor, and even TAs. However, the options that come with competitors like CANVAS are far superior... #### Cons CANVAS, a competing LMS, provides more external resource use, such as Virtual Office Hours during Conferences, and even grouping students into smaller groups to use MS Office through Collaborations. Brightspace is user friendly for students but more difficult to manage for administrators/teachers. --- ### A platform for learning with its own learning curve - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Brightspace has allowed our students to access course information online and in hybrid environments. The LMS is powerful and can produce quality courses that are highly customizable and interactive. I have used it for around six months now as an instructor and have noticed that while it is powerful, you might want to trial it out alongside a couple of other competitors to find one that fits you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I like the complex features that are offered by this LMS. Course creators can embed external sources, create several nested modules and access plenty of documentation. Users can also access content on nearly all browsers and operating systems. #### Cons There is a steep learning curve, and it can be difficult to even access basic course information as a learner, or to even find out how to create a single module for students as an administrator. The issues related to mobile access, Safari, and flash are still present in this LMS as well. It will be difficult to access certain pages, and some external links do not allow you to access them either. --- ### Course Building and Grading with D2L - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, D2L Brightspace is relatively easy to use and robust. It's not always intuitive, but that seems to be the case with all LMS I've used. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I use D2L, Moodle, and Blackboard in my multiple jobs. D2L is the most visually attractive of these, and the "drag and drop" functionality of course building makes things much easier than in Blackboard, for example. #### Cons When grading, I wish the rubrics appeared in the margin of same tab as the assignment, rather than a separate pop-up window, though this is already an improvement from earlier iterations. --- ### Easy to use and wide variety of options - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Elizabeth R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I love Brightspace! When it was first introduced I was skeptical because of the system we had been using so long and having to train everyone on new software is time-consuming and exhausting. But I found that it was an easier transition than I imagined, although there are so many features it can be a bit overwhelming for some. Overall, I really enjoy using the software and know that it benefits my students as well. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I really like the feature where you can open up quizzes or surveys for individual students. I use this when I have set a time/date for an item to close by and then students give me a valid excuse, then I can open it back up for them for whatever length of time I choose for them to complete the assignment. I also like that it is easy for a skilled user to navigate. #### Cons Even though I know how to navigate through the online set up now, it is sometimes troublesome for my students because there are just so many different options and different ways to navigate to the same thing. I usually have to do a short run through on how to use the software before the class begins and then I always have those that reach out with numerous questions regarding how to find something. This too has to do with the laziness of some students since I had no problem teaching myself how to use it. --- ### Brightspace is user friendly from a faculty perspective - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The ease of use. Some of it may be how my university has set it up for the faculty, but I can jump right into a classroom and figure out what to do next. Grading is easy. #### Cons I think the Discussion area could be set up a little more user friendly. For instance, It's a little hard to see what discussions have been responded to and where I need to put my focus in responding back to students. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/lms/brightspace-lms-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Brightspace Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
