The customer service is really nice, I always receive quick answers and solutions for the needs I have in my organization regarding Brightspace Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are changes that are not well notified, but this is not a huge problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its willingness to ask for and act upon suggested changes from users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Changes get made without notifying users unless they subscribe to certain D2L community groups. 2. There does not seem to be cogent reasons for some suggested changes made by users to be ignored while lesser, more esoteric changes are worked on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I understand its limitations now which is helpful. Its Canadian I think. Our district is mandated to use it and is paid for again I think. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can do a lot, but there are a lot of glitches. Inability to customize as much as I would like and the datahub and insights for reporting isn't there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI design is user-friendly, and third party products are easy to integrate. Performance has been superior to our previous LMS, and the built-in quiz printer function has been a benefit to our University. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the New Content Experience, sub-modules can not be moved out to become separate modules [i.e. a sub-module must be moved underneath another existing module]. This has not been viewed favorably by our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the user interface; it's a simple, easy-to-navigate interface. Analytics is another tool I really like about Brightspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were a better course file management system. Another improvement that I would like to see is the ability to restore courses from a previous point in time. So, having a better archiving system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ELT / LTI options are numerous & the wide range of available tools, and our TAM is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The limited permissions are frustrating, more granular permissions would be appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like D2L Brightspace's intelligent agents, calendar tool, and the flexibility of release conditions because they help make each user's journey relevant to them. The setup was straightforward enough, and we had good guidance from the D2L team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that there's no release condition based on 'award not earned'. It would be great if this feature could be added, as it doesn't exist currently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate D2L Brightspace's course builder, which simplifies setting up course shells. The clean interface for tracking class and student progress is highly useful. The automation capabilities through intelligent agents enhance efficiency, and the video notes are a nice touch. The supportive implementation team was invaluable during our transition, easing the complex integration of third-party content and SIS. I am also impressed by the Pulse mobile app’s reliability, which our students find beneficial. The platform's scalability and strong customer and technical support are significant reasons for my satisfaction. Furthermore, the competitive and industry-supported pricing allows us room to expand without major budget increases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found the integration of third-party content like McGraw Hill Connect and SIMnet with D2L Brightspace to involve a bit of a learning curve. It required some effort to get them working smoothly, although creating templates helped make new term rollouts easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ease of creating content for people using D2L Brightspace. I also love the way you can use it for content development; it stands out to me. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The way you bulk upload content as far as SCORM for content use. I would like to be able to add different content more than once at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
