G2 reviewers report that Blackboard excels in providing an all-in-one ecosystem, integrating core tools like course content management, graded assessments, and discussion boards into a single platform. Users appreciate how this organization helps them stay on top of their classes and manage their materials effectively.
Users say that Infinite Campus has made strides in usability, with features that allow for easy entry of assignments and attendance tracking. However, some users feel that it still requires improvements in overall user experience compared to more robust platforms like Blackboard.
Reviewers mention that Blackboard's implementation process is notably quick and intuitive, which is a significant advantage for institutions looking to onboard staff and students efficiently. This contrasts with Infinite Campus, where users have expressed challenges with setup and configuration.
According to verified reviews, Blackboard receives higher marks for support quality, with users highlighting the platform's reliability and institutional backing. In comparison, while Infinite Campus offers solid support, some users feel it could be more responsive to their needs.
G2 reviewers highlight that Blackboard's ease of use is a strong point, with many users finding it user-friendly and well-organized. In contrast, Infinite Campus users report a steeper learning curve, which can hinder day-to-day usability for new users.
Users note that while Infinite Campus allows for customization and flexibility, such as maintaining an "old skool" interface, it may not meet the evolving needs of all users as effectively as Blackboard, which is consistently praised for its modern and cohesive design.

Has the product been a good partner in doing business?
It seems like I see a lot of reviews saying 'back in the day' in reference to how Blackboard has been surpassed by several new products. What new products are out there today that compete well or have surpassed Blackboard in both features and usability?
