AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
  • G2 reviewers report that Canvas LMS excels in overall user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher G2 Score compared to ThinkUp!. Users appreciate the platform's mobile accessibility and third-party integration, which enhance the learning experience and make course management seamless.
  • Users say that Canvas LMS offers a user-friendly interface that simplifies the completion of assignments. The organization of courses into separate modules, which can be locked by date, helps keep students on track, a feature that many find invaluable.
  • Reviewers mention that ThinkUp! has a strong focus on supporting students' critical thinking and success, making it a valuable resource for specific educational needs, such as STAAR prep. However, it lacks the extensive user feedback and recent reviews that Canvas LMS enjoys, which may indicate a less robust user community.
  • According to verified reviews, Canvas LMS shines in its ease of setup and administration, with users highlighting the intuitive onboarding process. This contrasts with ThinkUp!, which, while rated slightly higher in ease of use, does not have the same level of comprehensive support and resources available for new users.
  • Users report that Canvas LMS provides a highly navigable platform that integrates well with other instructional software, allowing instructors to build a reusable lecture video library. This feature is particularly praised for its ability to enhance course delivery across multiple classes.
  • Reviewers note that while ThinkUp! has received positive feedback for its affirmations and instructional support, it falls short in overall market presence and user engagement compared to Canvas LMS, which has a much larger base of active users and recent reviews that reflect ongoing improvements and updates.
