And it's not a cheap, minimal product either - it's a quality learning management system that supports a variety of assignment types with easy grading. It allows a customizable amount of teacher-student interaction; set up a course and let it run without touching it again, or have a hands-on teacher communicating daily. Sufficient support documentation is available that I never needed to contact any kind of customer support. It seamlessly supported my course authored on Rise 360. > > **Cons**: It took some time to figure out how to set it up on a free hosting platform as an administrator; I had issues with needing more server access than I had for free. (I did find a workaround that's sufficient for the low-usage environment I'm currently supporting.) > > I have used Moodle as a student, a teacher, and a site administrator - including both completing my own setup start-to-finish and moderating an install set up by someone else. I've found Moodle to be an excellent learning management system. Other LMS platforms do have some extra features that are nice, but they rarely tip the scale on cost-benefit ratio; Moodle is good and free. ----- ### "Moodle - many more features than most understand." — 4.0/5 > **Allison** | *7 August 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Moodle is a very comprehensive platform for education. You can enable interactive content, making branching scenario activities, award grades, or simply determine competency. The range of resources and activities you can upload or create is extensive. You can host Moodle on your own server or you can pay for a hosting service. Moodle is free to set up if you are managing your own system. Moodle has a community forum to help you with a lot of challenges that many face. > > **Cons**: If you have never used Moodle before it can be overwhelming. There is so many features that you can struggle with where to start but, there are some good online courses in the Moodle Academy that can help. To use a hosting service is not cheap but these services usually come with support so they are helpful. > > Overall I feel it is a good product. Many education institutions use Moodle, making it easy to share material. It is a great tool to learn and develop courses with. While it can be expensive to have hosted and overwhelming when you first start out there are services to help you learn and I thoroughly recommend everyone use these online learning / orientation courses and do them as refreshers. ----- ### "Messy and faulty" — 2.0/5 > **Etân** | *22 September 2026* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It runs fast and doesn't consume any resources because it is a lightweight app. It is free and the login system is nice and secured. > > **Cons**: The UI is terrible. Navigating the different tabs is annoying, things are anything but intuitive, the notifications system fails most of the time, and the external links are more often broken than not. > > Bad. I've used it when I was a student, and it would always fail at something, whether it was sending me alerts or just simply being easy to navigate. ----- ### "Reliable Platform for Organized Online Learning" — 4.0/5 > **Tawseef** | *10 September 2026* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It provides a systematic platform where I am able to access learning material, hand in assignments and keep academic life organized. > > **Cons**: The interface feels a bit outdated at times, and moving between different courses and tasks can take more clicks than anticipated. > > Moodle has proven to be an efficient platform for conducting academic work and communication since it makes everything happen under one roof. ----- ### "Moodle Experience" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *9 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The chat/messaging feature. As an admin, I am satisfied with this because I can send a broadcast to all my users. > > **Cons**: I use Moodlecloud. The feature I like the least is the process of creating the performance usage report. I discovered when I first extract that information that there are columns that are not relevant - I want main details such as how many times a user logged in and how long they were logged in and the courses they viewed/attempted, the functions they used the most and all those. > > Knowledgable. I learned a lot as a student user once back when I was in college and now as an Administrator. ----- Page: 1 / 137\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/80691/moodle?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/80691/moodle) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
