## Reviews

### "Functional & Aesthetic" — 5.0/5

> **Geeta** | *9 January 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: So user friendly, easy to navigate, aesthetic but also functionally designed
> 
> **Cons**: Email system is a little archaic, could be changed to a chat system
> 
> Daily usage, it is such a pleasure to work with as it is a well designed interface that is very easy to navigate

-----

### "Worst Learning Management System" — 1.0/5

> **Razi** | *17 November 2024* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing. See comments below about experiences.
> 
> **Cons**: Everything. See comments below about experiences.
> 
> This is the worst LMS I have experienced as a teacher or student, considering four different systems that I have used. It is not intuitive and the simplest thing takes many steps. It is very poor in organizing what you see on the screen.

-----

### "User friendly\!" — 5.0/5

> **Carol** | *4 February 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to add content and grade. Organization of a course is logical, and it doesn't require a lot of training to use, whether from an instructor or student standpoint.
> 
> **Cons**: Zeros are entered automatically for quiz and test questions that must be manually graded, which causes my students to stress at their initial grades. Keeping the initial grade hidden until those questions can be addressed would be nice.
> 
> Logical and easy to use, especially coming off of programs like Canvas and Blackboard.

-----

### "Ease of Use" — 4.0/5

> **Terri** | *28 March 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy for students to learn how to use and calendar feature is also really helpful for keeping track of upcoming deadlines and events.
> 
> **Cons**: The appearance isn't very sleek. Sometimes the layout can be confusing at times. everything can feels a bit scattered.
> 
> My students used D2L through Virtual High School classes.

-----

### "Complicated work made simple\!" — 5.0/5

> **Steve** | *20 December 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Using the program means you don't have to re-invent the wheel.  It's a great and well-designed educational program that I use as a university prof.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few little things such as color coding for certain assignments that I still don't fully understand.  But it's not critical.
> 
> Helps me keep a good grip on assignments my students have completed, as well as grades for the term at a glance.  Easy to use and covers pretty much every function that a professor or instructor is likely to need.
