I found the Monitoring Engagement tool to be especially helpful. It enables me to track each participant's involvement in class, making it easier to identify and support learners who need the most assistance.

The LMS Tools option also allows instructors to launch course content directly during the session, which is a real time-saver and very useful.

Additionally, I appreciate the Dashboard, which displays the total session time as well as the overall talk time for both the instructor and students. I haven't come across this feature in other videoconferencing tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- When the attendance report is pushed to Blackboard's Attendance tool, it cannot be edited or updated there. To make any changes in the Attendance tool, we have to use Class API calls.

- Deleting a class meeting is also challenging, as I am unable to remove upcoming sessions directly and usually have to rely on an API call for this as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gives our teachers more tools to use in the virtual classroom vs standard Zoom. The virtual world can be boring without extra tools to help make it more engaging. Class helps with that. It's easy to use, and I like that there is no longer an app that needs to be installed on computers. It makes it easier for our users (students), who often have enough barriers being in the virtual environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing we do not like about the product itself. We had some kinks in the beginning, but they seemed to work themselves out. I do feel like sometimes communication is lost between Class and our school. At one time I needed to get a hold of someone to purchase an extra license, and our rep had changed without notice. I spent too much time trying to find the person I needed to talk to, after getting several emails bounced back because previous employees had left the company. I keep a spreadsheet of all of our reps for our vendors and update it when I find out we have a new one. Generally, I get an email stating we got a new rep along with their contact information. When this doesn't happen and we need assistance, this makes for a frustrating situation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The single best thing for me is that it doesn't add any additional learning curve for users being built directly on top of Zoom. There are things to learn, of course, but anyone can pick it up and start using it basically without any formal training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I can think of is that some users simply prefer a desktop application (particularly Zoom users) and we often get asked about why they have to use it on the web in a browser, instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Class allowed us to standardize our synchronous learning environment for a 6-12 school. The product is easy to use, easy to integrate, and the customer service has been stellar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Was a little "glitchy" when we first started with the program, but it seems many of those bugs have been worked out. We have had no issues this school year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

like that Blackboard Collaborate makes it easy to see what is due each week and also see what my professors upload weekly. i find it easy to share screens and files during class and feels more organized than trying to use zoom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find that the interface also takes a little getting used to which can be a bit frustrating when you’re trying to focus on class material and not walktrhu Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
