"Easy to use, but a bit buggy"

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Blackboard Learn from other similar products?

It provides outstanding capabilities, enhances organization, and makes communicating with pupils a breeze. More of a linux/windows experience is offered. It has a lot to offer and is a strong, complicated platform.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The platform's expansive architecture is perfect for accommodating all of your academic demands in one place. access to a combined calendar that makes it simple to see assignments, projects, and tasks since I love to do all my tasks in one place. Simple access to the course materials and current courses. This platform is dependable and full thanks to its years of expertise.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Platform is difficult to use because of bugs. There isn't enough storage either. We need to purchase more storage because every upload of files or movies uses up a significant quantity of BB storage.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Bugs must be fixed and removed since most people try to avoid to use BB because of bugs.

Blackboard for staff training

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Blackboard Learn from other similar products?

By using Blackboard in our company we have been able to train all our employees on topics that concern their jobs, since we use it is much easier to teach our employees about processes and how they should handle them, plus many ways on how to improve their performance and even giving motivational talks and classes that impact their productivity and the constant improvement of the organization.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The tool for importing files is quite good, it works very quickly and does not present errors of any kind as we have experienced in similar platforms, which is quite appreciated. It is very easy to use and employees adapt quickly and can even create classes among themselves for use and training of newer staff. The customer support service is quite good.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The user interface could be improved and made more intuitive as it is sometimes difficult to access some functions that are quite simple. Implementing it was a bit tricky at first due to it requiring a cloud based SaaS style integration which we were not prepared for influencing an extra expense that was not scheduled. Blackboard is slightly expensive compared to other options that are even free.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is a pretty good tool and is presented as an alternative to other similar platforms, despite working properly, I consider that there are better options on the market at lower prices and with the same utility, it would be good to evaluate how it behaves over time and if it is worth to continue using it and paying for it, at the moment we are migrating to another similar tool to see how it goes and if it is worth it.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Trustworthy
