Pros / Cons
  • It can seamlessly integrate different types of learning and has multiple templates that help new users to design assignments, quizzes, and discussion questions.
  • Sometimes notifications can be overwhelming or easy to miss, and a few features, like the grading or messaging tools, can feel a bit clunky or confusing at first.

  • Fairly intuitive for users; flexible; offers a lot of functionality in one application; responsive development team that frequently updates (new functionality and fixes)
  • They refused to give a refund, despite the extenuating circumstances and thus, I can't in good faith recommend this product/service to anyone.
