"Moodle: efficient and reliable for online training"

What do you like best about Moodle?

I particularly appreciate the variety of activities that Moodle allows us to offer: different types of quizzes, files, videos, SCORM, etc. I also like the learner tracking, which is very comprehensive and practical for assessing their progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

The quizzes lack a bit of interactivity. Moreover, it is not possible to record a single score for multiple activities: when a Storyline module includes several exercises, I am forced to add an additional activity to calculate the average for Moodle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good Features but Not Cost-Effective for Clients"
1/5
What do you like best about Moodle?

I appreciate Moodle's user-friendliness; it's straightforward to understand and easy to get onboard. I find that the platform's ability to support hybrid learning through Zoom integration and virtual lesson capabilities is a valuable feature. Also, Moodle being an open-source platform is innovative, affordable, and accessible, making it a great tool for delivering solutions to underdeveloped areas. It's particularly useful as a repository for knowledge and resources, facilitating shared and inclusive education, and bridging industry and school training needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

I find Moodle problematic due to its cost concerns. It's not free of charge, which is a significant barrier for my clients who are looking for very low-cost or free-to-use solutions. Moodle may be suitable for institutions requiring a lot of functions, but it's not simple or affordable enough for users who cannot afford it or are in the initial stages of needing such a platform. Additionally, I noticed that while Moodle has multi-language options, it isn't evident from the start, as everything is initially in English. This creates a barrier to accessibility for non-English speakers who might benefit from the platform. The AI features, though claimed to be present, do not offer a multilingual option similar to more intuitive language models, which could aid in explaining Moodle's usage in local languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Made Kanthicha of Moodle

Hi Rachel,

Thank you for sharing your feedback and highlighting Moodle’s strengths as a user-friendly and inclusive platform.

To help users get the most out of the platform, resources such as the Moodle Academy provide free, self-paced courses designed specifically for Educators and Admins (as well as Developers). These courses guide users through best practices for teaching, learning, and administering Moodle, making it easier to adapt the platform for diverse learning environments.

For organisations looking for a more straightforward setup, MoodleCloud offers an off-the-shelf, easy-to-use solution, ideal for smaller institutions or those with limited technical expertise. And for those requiring more tailored implementations, our global network of Moodle Certified Partners and Moodle Services can provide professional support with development, training, and ongoing assistance.

We hope this helps show that flexible options are available, whether you want a simple, out-of-the-box experience or a fully customised platform, so Moodle can continue to grow with your needs.

Regards,

Moodle Team

What do you dislike about Moodle?

"A significant drawback is Moodle's clunky user interface, which often necessitates an excessive number of clicks and time investment just to complete simple administrative tasks, such as creating a basic assignment or activity." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Liliana, thank you for your review.

We'd love to have your updated feedback now that we have updated to Moodle 5.1 - one of the most exciting improvements was a cleaner interface.

"Strengths and limitations of Moodle"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Moodle?

The platform is customizable, especially when you have the ability to code in HTML or CSS. Bulk user imports via CSV file, once you understand the logic of the columns to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

I find the native activities of Moodle not very aesthetic, which leads me to favor the integration of external creations designed with Genially, Storyline, or H5P. Moreover, exporting the tracking and results of SCORM files is not always easy to use. The visual rendering depends a lot on the chosen theme: in our case, since the platform is managed by the Region, we do not have control over the theme or the code, which greatly limits customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi,

Thank you for sharing your experience with Moodle!

"Used Moodle for a bit, it works but not super easy"
3/5
What do you like best about Moodle?

I like that you can build pretty much any course in Moodle. There are a lot of plugins and settings, so you can set it up the way you want. It works fine, nothing fancy, just does the job Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

The interface looks old and kinda confusing. Sometimes it takes too long to find simple things. You really need someone who knows how to manage it, otherwise you get lost fast. Would be nice if it was more simple and modern Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've used it in the past 4 years for my Legal English programs"
4/5
What do you like best about Moodle?

What I like best about Moodle is that, once you get the hang of it, it can do almost everything you need. At first, it was a bit overwhelming, but I followed a tutorial and, after a few attempts, I managed to set up my courses and grading system. Now I use it every day.

Moodle is really flexible. I can create detailed courses with quizzes, forums, and assignments, and it helps me track student progress easily. Correcting essays takes me less than five minutes per submission once I have my system in place.

The fact that it’s open-source is a big plus. I’m not tied to a specific provider, and I can find plugins or solutions when I need them. Moodle does not provide customer support as such. However, there are community forums and a knowledge base (I use it in English and Spanish) that are helpful, even though sometimes it takes a bit of searching.

Moodle has become an essential part of my teaching, and I’m glad I kept going despite the initial learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

What I dislike about Moodle is that it wasn’t easy to set up at first. It took me a few attempts to integrate it into my own domain, and that part was frustrating. I’m not super tech-savvy, so it was a relief when it finally worked.

The biggest downside is the learning curve. The interface can feel cluttered and a bit old-fashioned, and there are so many features that it’s easy to get lost. I wish Moodle had a simpler, beginner-friendly mode or clearer guidance. Without proper training, it’s easy to miss important tools or use them incorrectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good resource for course management"
4/5
What do you like best about Moodle?

I use Moodle every semester for my courses! I love that I can import previous courses, so I'm not starting from scratch every year. I appreciate the ability to create online quizzes somewhat quickly. It's a relatively easy system to use. It's a great tool that integrates every aspect of my courses I can . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Moodle?

Administering quizzes can be a little clunky at times. I wish it was easier to change assignment dates (like drag them in a calendar) - or easier to find features like the student overrides. Another minor annoyance: In the latest update, the shortcut key for shifting to the next cell in Gradebook (Tab key) shifts to the next assignment entry for a particular student, rather than the next student for a particular assignment. It's rare that I'm grading all assignments for one student in a sitting - rather I'm usually entering grades for one assignment for all students. I haven't found anyway to change this feature in the documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
