Constantly improving product.
Back in 2009 we were tired of the same-old, same-old we saw with North American providers and went looking in Europe and Asia to see what others were doing. We have used it for 8+ years and from the beginning (2009) it had key features that the other LMS providers here in North America lacked or charged extra to have included. Example: Recording voice and video directly into the WYSIWYG editor. That transformed discussion boards. Exam questions could be delivered by voice or video. Student could answer similarly. The ePortfolio feature was included and not an extra integration and fee. We actually had to turn off some features because we thought it would freak out instructors - like the feature that enabled any instructors from other organizations to enter your course, look around and ask you if they could use parts or all of it. The point is that in 2009 this crew was ahead of its time and they have continued to add well thought-out improvements to the LMS 3-4 times annually. We are going to renew.... if they still want us.
CONSIt`s time for a new discussion board (as long as we don`t lose the audio/video record features) and more flexibility with how we can integrate 3rd party apps and features as we choose (cough, cough... Zapier... cough, cough).
Vendor Response
Thanks Paul for the review and the kind words! Maybe you've noticed the refreshed flash-free A/V recorder? Regarding Zapier and the like...I'll forward to my product people :)

Excellent. I use it daily and for medium, long-term and collaborative course planning
PROSEasy to reproduce courses year to year and have a record of what was taught.
CONSSee specific feature review .The rich text boxes could be more user friendly.Drag and drop and Dropbox integration would be nice.
Reasons for switching to itslearning
School decision. Needed something more flexible and sophisticated.

Itslearning from a student
It almost never works at school and worked sometimes at home. It wasn't very stable and did have as many great features as blackboard.
PROSAll my classes were on here and I used it mostly to turn in assignments.
CONSThere's not a lot of information you can put on in. I used it in high school and was switched to blackboard in college. I like blackboard way more. Itslearning never worked on the school wifi and it was always down. I feel like it has a lot of bugs that need to be worked out.

itsLearning Platform - 2023 Review
We have had nothing but an excellent experience with itsLearning. A particular thank you to [sensitive content hidden] who have been nothing but supportive. The teams are well aware of the on-going demands and changes in the sector, and have done nothing but accommodate changes since we selected their platform and rolled out for implementation.
PROSWe used the itsLearning platform to launch our new suite of hybrid programs and the platform really served its purpose. The integration of O365 was extremely useful so students were not forced to have multiple screens, and by design became a one-stop shop for us. From the student perspective it is really easy to use and navigate, and opportunities to design pages that were more interactive and included learning paths were invaluable to ensure scaffolding of learning and skills practice could be achieved before moving on. From an admin/teacher perspective the platform was really easy to use and adding new content/students was simple (even for any novice). The tracking of student engagement was also extremely beneficial and insightful for ensuring immediate intervention. We had no need to integrate other apps but the implementation team were more than helpful to support activities, and I have no doubt would support any customer in future.
CONSThe platform does exactly what we needed it to do and there are no recommendations to provide. However, if you are considering itsLearning, what I can say is how regular the communications team send new updates and they are always looking to improve and remain up-to-date with sector needs more widely.

Hi Laura, thank you so much for your kind words! We are happy to support you and to continue delivering a platform that fits your needs :)

My Honest Review For ItsLearning
When I am sick, I have to watch ItsLearning to catch up on the work I would have missed on regular school days. When I'm sick, it helps because I can just ask the teacher to make tests for me since I might have big tests. Through ItsLearning, I can also communicate with my teachers, friends, and the school. This is a very convenient feature.
PROSVisit the website and you'll see different page cards that help you navigate to the course quickly. ItsLearning also offers ClassLink, which you can use to find the class easily. I also really like the planner page because I can see when I have a deadline. Moreover, you can contact your teacher by message if you have questions. The table also indicates the type of tests/projects due next to the plans. The dashboard is pretty intuitive and lets me go about my day. It is also possible to take quizzes through the settings, and it provides multiple choice or response options.
CONSThere isn't much information you can put in it. As a high school student, I used it, and as a college student, I switched to Blackboard. Blackboard is my favorite. School WiFi always caused problems with itslearning. The program needs to be updated. It always crashes when the server is down. It seems that North American support is going away. But it won't be seized elsewhere. Additionally, old messages should not be placed in a separate column in the messages section.

Training for crime prevention
It is quite easy to get a grip. Familiarty feeling with the itslearning office i Malmö. Short time for support issues.
CONSI'd like to see a sort of "green light" if the participants are online. Maybe some more integrated digital functions, i.e. recording lectures within instead of using PowerPoint.
Reason for choosing itslearning
Price was significantly lower and the performance better. A winning concept!

What Teachers Need the Most is Time
Itslearning is a great complement to my teaching environment within the classroom and is a gateway for e-learning when class is not in session. Creating lessons and assessments from home has never been easier. Students have access to me and to the learning material both at school and away.
PROSI enjoy that students and I have a common place to connect for learning. We use the calendar to stay on task and we use the message feature to stay in contact. I am able to share resources with all learners and curate collections of learning materials for the learners to access as they wish. What I need the most as a teacher is time. Itslearning is so convenient to use that it gives me back the time that I need to be creative and enjoy the other aspects of my day!
CONSI look forward to itslearning becoming more and more user-friendly as developers work closely with educators to meet our unique needs.

Great tool for learning
Itslearning works stably. Problems in working with the platform are very rare. The platform can be adapted to the teacher's pedagogy and IT skills. The overview with status and assessment makes it easy for all students to work towards their knowledge goals.
PROSEasy to use for both teachers and students. It is easy to navigate and change, and there are many opportunities to adapt and develop the content to different needs.
CONSCreating reports to get good statistics to use for follow-up for principals is not simple. Here we usually need to use support.

Glad we made the switch
For a while, the product was very dated looking, but after we switched to the "Modern" version I can say that it is leaps and bounds better. There is also a fairly steep learning curve that is required when using the software, it is not as basic as Google Classroom or a competitor LMS, but it does SO much more that it makes sense that it might take a bit longer to figure out how to use it to its full potential.
PROSIt is hands down the most powerful and versatile tool that we evaluated when deciding to choose a LMS. There is an enormous amount of features and functionalities that are possible to use, and the company worked with us to prioritize some must-haves into their upcoming releases. They have excellent customer support and are always helpful when we submit inquiries.

Thank you Heather! We're proud of the user experience, which many teachers consider to be a huge time-saver. All the best

Tricky to navigate
It's okay. I prefer Moodle which is what I use to learn. I think the system is a little bit complicated. But I like that it has messaging for my students to use when they need to drop a line in the middle of working on something. I also like the ability to send feedback continuously on projects and the ability to send feedback like "Hey I noticed that you did not complete this..."
PROSI like that the product enables me to add a variety of resources, including meetings, embedded material, videos, links to warm ups, etc.
CONSI do not like that the site has so many different areas where information can be found- Overview, Plans and Resources. So students can navigate away and with at home learning, it's difficult to get them back, especially for those who have a challenge with technology.
